Eggplant-Mushroom-Cheese Melt -a Quick Dinner
Shaking off my ( Hyderabad heat induced ) lethargy, I have finally made a Fan Page for Saffron Trail blog. If you are on Facebook (really, who isn’t??) I would really love it if you joined me there. Right now I am sharing some toddler food recipes that my toddler seems to enjoy as well as some inter
Yotam Ottolenghi inspired Mango Chickpea Salad
I am yet to read a cookbook written by Yotam Ottolenghi, but I follow his column on the Guardian quite avidly.

Baked Cauliflower in Tomato sauce
Okay, so there are people who don’t like cauliflower and some who don’t like me posting recipes with cauliflower in them 😉 If you are reading this, you’ll know this is for you! Winter is officially over in Hyd with temperatures raring to touch 40 C. At such times, I still find spotlessly white head

‘Tis the season of fresh green peas and while I always have on hand large packet of frozen peas, the taste of fresh green peas is something else. There is an extremely simple recipe – which my friend had shared with me last season, where if you buy large quantities of peas, say 2 kilos or so, you sh
Karela with kachori masala – Bitter gourd made better

Eggplant Caponata – My version
From an erstwhile eggplant hater to making so many dishes with eggplant is quite a progress for me. I think eggplant is quite an adult taste and the smoky taste of roasted eggplant, even more so. I hardly know anyone who liked eggplant as a kid. Both S and me LURVE anything to do with a char grilled
