There is a nice cool breeze blowing now in Bangalore and it sometimes results in a mild fog in the morning. When you step out of the house you rub your hands together for the little warmth that it gives you. You want all meals to be piping hot and you know you shouldn’t leave…

Waffles
Some dishes you love because they are nutritious and others because they are comfort food. But my primary reason to start liking a waffle was that it looks so pretty. Such cute little squares inside a slightly larger one and can be doused in honey or smeared with any preserve of your choice. Sigh!!! It…
Aloo Gobhi
Some dishes are very fancy in method and name while others are simple and pure bliss. I never did quite imagine I would be in raptures about the very traditional, very classic and as old as earth dish, aloo gobhi. Plain old potatoes and cauliflower, if made right, can make you float in the air…
Rajma Paratha
Every cloud has a silver lining and this paratha is my silver lining to the disastrous attempt of a croquette that I tried. I was excited after seeing the recipe for Kidney beans croquettes on Venkatesh Bhat’s show. It is a recipe for a rajma and potato tikki filled with dried figs. Sounds tempting? I…
Tava Pulao
This dish is another one which has been on my to-do list forever now. I saw this one on Venkatesh Bhat’s show and it looked so simple and yum. It is a perfect example of an easy dish which is tasty as well as nutritious with all the veggies in it. Pair it with a…
Burger Buns
I have been planning to make burgers from scratch forever now. Finally I achieved this grand ambition last month when we had the Burger theme for the Blogging Marathon. Smart girl that I am, I immediately saved up the burger bun recipe for Bake-a-thon. So here it is. Recipe from here. Makes 4 buns WHAT…
Banana Honey Muffins
Life is full of wonderful little surprises. One such is this banana honey muffin I made. I needed to have muffins for my continental breakfast spread I made for the Thali theme last month. I was in a tearing hurry because I need to finish cooking and clicking by 10 in the morning else the…
Eier Kichel
So I bought another cookbook. Yes. Despite having access to millions of recipes online, despite having bookmarked countless recipes from my co-bloggers, despite having cookbooks from which I have tried only a handful of recipes, I bought another one. In my defense…..well, I have no defense. I bought ‘The Hot Bread Kitchen Cookbook’. Aren’t you a…
Bread Rolls
It is December which means it is Baking Time. I am super late in starting this year’s Bake-a-thon but it is my favorite event since it involves baking. It also gives me a legitimate excuse to hover around the oven peeking nervously and crossing fingers in the hope that the bread rises, the cake is baked…
