When I started compiling the list of dosais, I knew it would have a Southern region bias because dosais are such a staple in these parts. I knew I would get some similar dishes from Western parts like Maharashtra or Gujarat but I honestly did not expect to travel east in my dosai exploration. Today’s…

Balehannu Dose|Banana Dosai
For the second day of the mega marathon, I have the Balehannu Dose or the banana dosai. Thanks to this marathon, I discovered the amazing variety of dosais made in Karnataka. I have been consciously trying out more local food since I moved back to Bangalore two years ago but my dose knowledge was kind…
Adai|Lentil Crepes
This is the first day of our Mega Marathon when we blog about Flatbreads & More. As I declared yesterday, I am doing A to Z of Dosais thanks to a mutiny by the husband and daughter. My original dish for A was to be Appam which is not only my favorite dish but also…
A to Z Flatbreads & More…..
It is that time of the year again when our Blogging Marathon group gets together to blog for the entire month. 26 flatbreads for 26 alphabets for 26 days. It is such an exciting time for us. As usual, I was pretty excited to bake some breads for this theme but this time my family…

Baked Mini Donuts
Today is the first day of a three day weekend. The daughter and I have an agreement that she eats whatever I make during school days and I make whatever she asks for during holidays. Most of the time it makes mt life easier though I understand I have to renegotiate this just before vacations….
Announcing Kid’s Delight – Baked Treats
I am hosting Srivalli’s Kid’s Delight event for a whole month – from August 16 – September 15. The theme for this event is Baked Treats. I realised I over emphasise the health aspect of food when it comes to feeding my daughter. I see that is the case for most parents and guardians. So…
Multigrain Fougasse
Fougasse is one of my favorite breads and I love to make it often. I have blogged about a simple Rosemary Fougasse previously and so this time I wanted to do something different. I found this awesome multigrain recipe with olives, tomatoes and garlic and I knew I simply had to make it. It turned out…
Baguette
I have been planning to make baguettes for a long time but have postponed it simply because I was so scared I would mess up. Finally the French cuisine theme seemed the perfect time to finally try making the baguette. I am happy to report that overall the baguette was not a failure. I would…
