Suji halva is staple dessert in Indian homes; we make it on auspicious days, a quick dessert, as an offering in temples, on a rainy or a cold day or just without any reason as it’s the easiest and the quickest sweet treat!!
In this recipe I have made a twist to the traditional recipe, I added brewed filter coffee. The coffee gives the halva a distinct nuttiness and lifts up the caramelized taste of the halva.
Fish cakes are one of the easiest meals or even starters in my kitchen. They are so easy to cook and have versatile flavor profiles.The texture of the fish cakes is soft inside and crispy from outside. Relish it as a starter with a dipping sauce or mayonnaise or a part of main meal with some flat breads or steamed rice.I have made these fish cakes keeping in mind the low carbs and gluten free rule. The fish cakes are ketogenic, paleo,gluten free and low carb.
Indian Thai Lamb Shanks
-Tuesday, December 12, 2017
This recipe is a mix of Thai and Indian flavors. This curry is a family favorite and a part of special meals and Sunday meals . I am not a meat eater but this one meat dish I can eat happily as I know its flavorful, tasty, tender, juicy and above all does not have a strong meat flavorful which generally other lamb cuts have.
Try it, its an easy recipe, only the cooking time is longer but once you have put everything to cook you have time to do aple things.
I tried my first watermelon strawberry cake from The Black Star Pastry (Sydney, Australia) at a food festival in Melbourne (Australia). One bite and there is the flavor and texture dance in your mouth. It’s creamy, chewy, crunchy, fresh and very light on your palette .I was so curious to recreate this beauty and luckily the layering was so precise that I knew what I am eating and what way the layering goes. The best part about this dish is that its gluten free.The Strawberry watermelon cake consists of 2 layers of almond dacquoise (like a meringue), 3 layers of rose scented cream, watermelon, and strawberries and garnished with pistachios and dried rose petals.
Who does not love a good fish curry, which has delicate flavors of the fish, a balance of spices and condiments but most important is the balance of fish flavors and spices, in which one can taste the fish as well as spices and the spices are used to enhance the fish flavor and not to make the fish taste like a spice! There are many ways a fish curry can be prepared. But close to the heart is a Bengali style fish curry. The marinated fish pieces fried in pungent mustard oil, tempered with nigella seeds (kalo jeera in Bengali), fresh green chili and tomatoes. Simple yet tastes amazing, perfect balance of everything, nothing more : nothing less!
This is a modern version of the traditional Indian Jalebi Rabri combo but this includes sliced apples and a yeast based batter. So, make it for your loved ones and give them a treat at home.
