I am reposting this post from last year. Enjoy! If you ask an Indian what their favourite chutney is, one will get multiple different answers. For me, it depends on what I am eating it with. With idli and sevai, it has to coconut chutney, with adai it is onion chutney, with sandwiches it would…

Sweet Potato Toast
One day, while I was grocery shopping, I saw a box of sweet potato slices in the frozen section. I decided to try it at home. It is easy to make, healthy and for those who are on a low carb keto diet, whole 30, have gluten or dairy allergy or just want to eat…
Pytt i Panna (Swedish Hash)
Last week when I went grocery shopping and saw beets, pytt i panna flashed in my mind. This is a popular swedish dish, originally made with leftover potatoes and pickled beets on the side. Onions and meat/ sausages were also chopped up and added to it. For vegetarians, meat was excluded and at most restaurants…
Peach Cobbler
I bought some beautiful peaches from the farmer’s market. I used some for salads and made a dessert with the rest. It is a really easy dessert to whip up. I don’t know why I never made this before. This recipe has no eggs, so a good dish to make if you want an egg-free…
Roasted Tomato Salsa with Chipotle Peppers
More than a year ago, I ate a chipotle sauce at Sancho’s in Bangalore. The sauce was really good and I wanted to recreate that dish. Since I could not get my hand on chipotles, I never got to trying it. I cannot remember the exact taste of the dish or even what the exact…

Here I have two recipes, Bruschetta with Sauteed Mushrooms and Bruschetta with Basil and Tomato, Drizzled with Balsamic. Ingredients…
Stir-Fried Okra with Peanuts
Okra is called ladies finger in India, maybe because it is slender and long. In hindi it is bhindi, in malayalam and tamil it is vendakka and kannada it is bendekai. When I was a kid, it was considered a ‘super food’ and good for the brain, my mom would say. Okra has a bad…
Instant Pot Methi Palak Dal
I recently bought an instant pot (which I may have mentioned in an earlier post). I was introduced to it last summer when a few of my friends owned one. I had decided then that I need one (not want one but need one!). The first dish I made with that was a biryani and…
Simple Eggplant Curry

Continuing with my basic recipes with very few ingredients; this is an easy dish that even a college student can make. Ingredients 6-7 baby eggplants or 4-5 long eggplants 1 tomato 1 onion 3-4 cloves…
