Like I said in my last post, I shouldn’t be trying out recipes from the experienced marathoners. I tried the crustless quiche and had quite a tough time making it a quiche and had to resort to ramekins to save the day. But the saving grace was that it tasted quite good and was worth…

Veloute de tomates / Creamy Tomato Soup
Ever since I joined the Blogging Marathon, I keep thinking about trying and posting the amazing recipes from the blogs of my fellow marathoners. But what stops me every time is imagining their face when they see the photos on my blog and go ‘Nahiiiiii’ like a Hindi movie heroine. But this time I…
Quick Banana Ice cream
It’s the same situation. Again! Every time I settle down, start liking the city, figure out my way through the place without Google maps and think, ‘I can get used to this’, the husband would tell me those words – ” we have to move”. So we are moving. Again. It will be our…
Ragi Semiya
Ever since the first time I tried this Ragi Semiya, I have become a huge fan. It’s so easy and tasty that words can’t describe the pleasure of this dish. It’s as easy to make as any other upma but it’s so yummy and it’s ragi which is healthy. What more to ask for!…

Simple Fruit Salad
Saying that it is hot here is an understatement of epic proportions. Everyday is declared as the hottest day till date and things are only expected to get worse. The husband is sniffing and coughing, the daughter is just about recovering and the house is a mess. I buy the most raw fruits…
Quick tomato salad
The best dishes are those that manage to surprise. When I started to make this salad, I was not sure as to how it would turn out but I really wanted to clear out my refrigerator and I needed a recipe for the Blogging Marathon. So I prodded ahead. But it was such a…
Chat Salad
When I picked the Salads theme for this week’s Blogging Marathon, my idea was to finally start my ‘healthy eating’, three months into the new year. I read up a lot on salads and various dressings but fell back to my default regular recipes which I make for myself. These are my go-to recipes…
Tofu Bhurji Rolls
One of the tougher things to do is to get the husband try eating new dishes. He is very content eating sambhar, rice and veggies everyday. So my latest trick has been to give him BM as the reason for all my new dish experiments. It’s working so far. Ever since we moved to…
