Read moreCome winters,it is always comforting to grab a bowl of soup.I made this delectable Spring Onion Soup last weekend for dinner and all enjoyed it to the core.Though soups can be had any time of the day,i like to have it just before dinner.This recipe is adapted from Sanjeev Kapoor’s website and i was quite impressed by the recipe,since it was simple and quick to make.I have a few soup recipes but this one is different,as i didn’t know such a soup existed.I thought of spring onion as a garnishing green or perhaps used in a subzi or paratha.See down…
Read moreIt was for a long time that I wanted to post this Hummus recipe.Hummus is an egyptian dip or spread made from chickpeas,tahini,garlic and spices.It is an ancient food dip made in olden times dating back to many years and it has its own variations.I wanted to post it with a little homemade style recipe and was somewhat successful too since daughter dear raised her thumbs up.I also learnt that it is made in some countries like Lebanon,Morocco etc.Did you people know that there is one annual event celebrated on third Thursday every year?Sounds really intresting to me.This protein filled…
Read moreOne of the common features at home is what to make for dinner?In my house each one has a different taste and it is sometimes difficult for me to make ad satisfy all.Some of the times i make a variation and add or omit certain things and adjust as per their liking.Dosa is one such recipe.It is loved by all,But to serve the same way each time is boring ad monotonous.To break that i make various stuffing in dosa ad this one was made when my daughter wanted a fusion dinner.Making dosa the same way but with a chinese stuffing.I…

Read moreIt was my long time wish to try something from south east asian country such as Thailand,mainly because they always include a lot of aromatic herbs and leaves in their cuisine.As we can see there are many similarities in the cuisine of our neighbouring countries and ours.I liked one recipe of a simple thai curry and for that you need to make a green paste.I later learnt that with this green paste you can not only make a curry but a variety of dishes as well.So I thought of posting a separate recipe for my blog of this delicious, aromatic…
Read moreChilli Paneer is a yummy Indo Chinese which is loved by kids and grown ups too.I prepared this last week as a starter when I had guests at home.I have never tried this athome,but only had a few times whenever we chanced to eat out.It is a dry version, but you can make the gravy type as well. Iam afraid it is fine to indulge in these type of recipes once in a while at home and share it with all.At home all enjoy Chinese recipes and since this a fusion recipe was enjoyed more and I know this will…
