Savoury multigrain yeast pancakes

April 1, 2008

These savoury pancakes make for a quick breakfast or dinner. The key ingredient here which isn’t usually used in pancakes results in soft fluffy pancakes. And that does away with the need for eggs, milk or baking powder.

Simply Delicious Potato Wedges

August 1, 2007

I have always loved the wedges as against the fries, because they are chunky, the skins turn delicious and crispy and there’s no frying involved. Last week, when we were in KL, we ordered a portion of wedges (for want of any other vegetarian options) at the premium coffee house cum diner, Dome and I haven’t had them any worse. They were batter fried and cold which made me miss these home-made beauties. Also check here.

Mushroom Tikkis flavoured with Nigella Seeds

June 2, 2007

Just as I am writing this, there are gusty winds blowing and it’s starting to pour and instantly there is the unmistakable mitti ki khushboo or the sweet smell of the freshly drenched soil. The weather feels suddenly quite bearable and I am craving for a large masala chai. It rained like this the ev

Bulgur patties – Crispy bulgur burgers

May 19, 2007

Regulars on my blog know that I have been cribbing endlessly about the heat in Bombay. I have almost forgotten how to make perfect round rotis, because it’s clearly been a while since I made them. That doesn’t mean I’ve been hogging rice for all my meals, which would have been the best thing to happ

Healthy Poha Made Protein Rich

October 28, 2006

Batata Poha is my all time favourite tiffin. Once you get the poha-soaking technique right, the rest of it is very easy. The only problem that batata poha or potatoes with beaten rice is that it is an out and out carbohydrate breakfast. I prefer to start my day with a good mix of vegetables, protei

Spicy Khajas & Nankhatai in Diwali Blogging – Part I

October 15, 2006

Continuing from here Cleaning is half-way through and home is already looking beautiful. For most Hindus, Diwali is a wonderful excuse to spruce up the house, discard old unused stuff, bring in new little ideas and ofcourse make delicious food to share with loved ones. I truly believe that old unuse

Childhood memories and a fat-free snack

July 21, 2006

Bhel_ was the ultimate treat in school days. There used to be this bhel wala with his cart and a glass box mounted on top of the cart. He used to serve bhel puri, sev puri and pani puri like any other bhel wala. This ‘bhaiyya’ used to stand right opposite my balcony in Wadala, and that wouldn’t make life easier for me. My grandparents wouldn’t allow me to eat street food and it required many many days of excellent behaviour to convince them to let me indulge in that tangy treat

Coconut Tea Cake

April 16, 2006

This coconut and tea cake makes for a perfect bite along with a cup of tea or coffee. I was tempted to try out Fat Free Vegan’s Coconut Chai cake from the word go ! On the day I was to go to mom’s house- I found the perfect excuse to bake this one. I just tweaked the ingredients a bit, as per their
