Aloo Tikki Sandwich
Earlier this month, I daringly ventured into the Indian breadmaking arena. In case you missed my Aloo Paratha post, it was a challenge that turned out to be surmountable after all. My aloo balls for stuffing the paratha must have been a little on the small side though because we had some leftover aloo filling. […]

Soupy Soba Noodles
Earlier this week, I posted a recipe for a really easy stir-fry sauce with the forewarning that it’s really saucy. It was so saucy and flavor packed that I thought it might work well as a soup and gave it a shot with the stir-fry leftovers. As we watched President Obama address the nation, the […]

Simply Saucy: A 10 Minute Stir-fry Sauce
We like it saucy (no R rated pun intended – that sounds dirty right?). This stir-fry started off as an experiment. It was so delicious that everytime we made stir-fry, Rajat would ask me to “make it in ‘that’ sauce.” Kitchen experiments are fabulous unless you forget to write down what you did because recreating […]

Punjabi Chole with Amchur Crusted Aloo
Punjabi Chole with Amchur Crusted Aloo is possibly the easiest curry I’ve made in a long time.

In a nutshell, you boil everything in a big stockpot, broil some potatoes […]

After slow cooking the daal for 8 hours, it was still a little tough. We were tired of waiting and ready to eat it with our palak channa, […]

For the Love of Nutella
Today is World Nutella Day, and I applaud the good people who decided that this chocolate and hazelnut wonder deserves a day of it’s own. In honor of the occasion, I want to share the nutella drenched waffle pictured above that I had at Wafels & Dinges, a Belgian waffles truck. Yes, that’s right. A truck. Where else […]

Aloo Paratha – Spiced Potato Filled Flatbread
Warm, generously filled parathas (stuffed Indian flatbread) remind me of cold, wintery mornings at my husband�EUR(TM)s family�EUR(TM)s house in Delhi. We wake up to be treated to hot parathas and steaming chai. Despite our �EURoeprotests�EURoe against such a heavy breakfast and �EUR�pleas�EURoe for no butter, we let our plates be filled with hot paratha after […]
