  • My kinda happy shopping! Just bought this from a vendor who brought his van into our community - bought the first fresh peas of the season and I want to make a mixed vegetables subzi using peas, carrots, potatoes, methi and spring onions! Double tap if you like such rainbow pics 🌈 . For more such #eattherainbow inspirations, follow @saffrontrail #saffrontrail
  • 🌱🌱🌱🌱 tête-à-tête . A face-to-face meeting, or private conversation between two people, usually in an intimate setting; a head-to-head. . Chai time with my plants this morning— thankfully today’s session was not interrupted by the huge scary black wasp that’s forever trying to shoo me away from my own garden. There have been times when I’ve thrown all that I’ve plucked and run very fast to escape this flying monster 😡 Also, I managed to pluck one ripe lemon today. . In the pic, double beans climbers, baby bitter gourd and lemon grass flowers growing over 12 feet high. . 🌱For more such garden love, follow @saffrontrail 🌱 #saffrontrail
  • 🌸 aroma /əˈrəʊmə/ noun noun: aroma; plural noun: aromas a distinctive, typically pleasant smell . Son’s birthday, winter, Christmas, end of a year, all good reasons for December to be my favourite month of the year. The chill in the air, anticipation of rum soaked fruit cakes, warming fragrance of frankincense in the diffuser and the irresistible aroma of these cinnamon rolls baking in the oven...made even more indulgent with a generous drizzle of salted caramel sauce . Made big batches of this one on Sunday AND Monday —grab the much tried and tested recipe from my blog. Google “saffrontrail cinnamon rolls” -for the salted caramel sauce, the recipe on sallysbakingaddiction.com is my go to recipe every single time. . SWIPE for a closer look at these beauties 😍 . 🌸Follow @saffrontrail for more such holiday inspirations 💕 #saffrontrail . What’s your favourite thing to bake this month?
  • haven /ˈheɪv(ə)n/noun —a place of safety or refuge 🌸 You turn around and see how life sometimes color coordinates itself. Totally in love with these pops of yellow against the forest green wall. The wall deserves its own post :) . Featuring: The Throw: The husband was in Hyderabad for a few hours and he was sweet to pop into the @ikea.india store and buy me somethings that I would love - via a video call from the store and asking me to choose whatever I like🤗. I chose this grey throw with a bright yellow border as well as a few rugs for the kitchen and an amazing metal trolley that's just perfect to keep besides the bathtub with the towels, oils etc. . Bedsheet and pillows- bedroom overlooks the frangipani tree in the garden-- this yellow - blue- green frangipani bedsheet from @urbanladder complements the room beautifully. So happy that they have the REAL king size sheets (9ftx9ft) . Coffee mug @fabindianews . Vintage ceramic planter was a gift from my earlier neighbour when she moved out . Book- Wonder / I love reading my son’s books :) . #NOTSPONSPREDBYANYBRAND 🔔NOTE: Brands: please do not repost without my express permission🔔 .

  • *beer mug* 🍺Whenever the husband clicks a photo of me, turns out I have a beer in my hand. And I’m not even a fan of beer. (single malt 🥃 girl) . The only beer I don’t mind drinking a glass of is the Hefeweizen in my local brewery. But I quite liked this Mexican beer Pacifico Clara at @wahaca a Mexican restaurant chain in London. They have these little memento you can take at the exit which look like cards of matches but they are actually seeds of Mexican varieties of chilies 🌶 that you can take back home and grow. Swipe to see more pics from the restaurant. #saffrontrail
  • Sleepover prep morning! When preparing food for a bunch of kids, I prefer to make as much of it in advance. Rather prepare things that can be nicely warmed up in the oven when they are ready for breakfast. Enjoyed this 'extra' waffle with a blueberry sauce made from frozen berries and a dusting of icing sugar. The last pic is the bit we garnished with some cocoa almond spread and the combination was quite yum! This year I'm making this big batch of waffles using a Belgian Yeasted Waffles recipe from @kingarthurflour website-- comes highly recommended in the waffle maker reviews on Amazon. You can Google for this to get the recipe. . Swipe to see close ups 😋😋😋 #saffrontrail And behind the scenes in the Stories
  • I wrote a post on my blog recently on how November was the month of making. This was one of the things I made. For the first time, under the expert guidance of my neighbour Aunty, I learnt and prepared this Amla Pickle. I’m so much in love with the flavour in this one and I’m not even a pickle fan. Also, we consider making granolas and nut mylks cool- how about making pickle making cool again? Go learn some winter specialty pickles from your grandma/ mum/ relatives / neighbours. Our older relatives and neighbours are more than eager to share their knowledge. I can’t tell you how happy it made Aunty that we showed interest in learning her recipe and we actually tried it at home. 💕💕💕 . On a funny note, my househelp was a bit worried if this is my next hobby after soap making, esp given the mess this leaves behind. I reassured her that this is definitely a one off thing 😂 #saffrontrail
  • This recipe is a 5 ingredient wonder. I first had this Beet Dip with Feta at this restaurant /bar The Refuge in the @theprincipalhotel Manchester. It was one of the small plates served as a part of dinner and the flavours were unforgettable. . It’s not a Beet Hummus. No chickpeas in this one. The saltiness of the feta complements the sweetness of the beets like no other. The crunchy crackers along with this silken dip make an addictive snack. . Purée together — 5 small boiled and peeled beets 50-75 gram feta 2 cloves garlic . Top with another 50 gram crumbled feta, swirls of extra virgin olive oil and a sprinkle of dried thyme. Add some crushed toasted nuts for a crunch—in my excitement I forgot to add these. Pistachios will add the perfect color contrast. . SAVE THIS POST and try this dip with homemade or store bought crackers or toasted pita bread. #saffrontrail . Follow @saffrontrail for more such inspirations
