Chloe’s Ginger Nutmeg Spice Cupcakes

I’ve never had great luck with eggless baking except for occasional wins like with this Chocolate Banana Cake, so it was with some apprehension that I tried these cupcakes yesterday. I’d been a Facebook fan and a Twitter follower of Chef Chloe Coscarelli’s famous vegan recipes (yes the Chloe Coscare

Chane Jaisalmer Ke (Black Chickpeas in Spiced Yoghurt gravy)

I’ve never been good at planning weekly menus or cooking by my fridge and pantry list for the week. That, like any organized planning, is an art. I’ve usually done the opposite – stocked up my pantry and fridge with the best intentions of cooking only to discover them eons later, expired and disheve

Masala Egg “Half” Fry

                            This is a recipe handed down to me by my dear friends – the Patels – yes, the same amazing cooks that brought us the gujarati khichdi and kadhi recipe. Not sure why we call it “half” fry but I suppose [...]

Granola and Fruit Muesli

                I was introduced to muesli or at least the correct way to eat it, during our last vacation to Europe. I’ve bought store brand “Muesli” packages in the past and the Ikea variety but never really knew the right way to enjoy it. I used to just [...]

Pongalo Pongal!

Growing up, Pongal was one of my favorite festivals. As with the many festivals we celebrate in India, I loved the fact that we got to stay home and eat amazing food, and binge on Sakkarai Pongal:). Pongal, as explained in my earlier post, is akin to Thanksgiving, marking the Harvest festival and ob

To 2012, travels and beyond…

http://youtu.be/6FYKdj1K-_w Yes I’m a week late to realize it but I’m looking forward to many promising things this year so better late than never:) 2011 has been an eventful year, somewhat too eventful for my liking, so in my heart I’m secretly glad to leave it behind me. I think it’s random that w

Apple Pie in a Glass

I just love, LOVE my Vitamix. It’s one of those complete kitchen machines – it juices, crushes, minces, chops, powders, grinds and did I mention, blends?:) And cleanup is a cinch. I know I sound like I’m a Vitamix infomercial and if they’re listening, they may just as well pay me for this:) I’ve bee

Mughlai, Dallas

I’d heard about this place from several folks, mixed reviews since it opened in Dallas about 2 months ago, but a recent review from another foodie friend got us intrigued enough to venture out Friday night for dinner. Located in  the heart of North Dallas, this is a fine dining Indian restaurant, an

Punjabi Samosa

Growing up in Dehradun, Punjabi Samosa used to be a treat during the monsoon and winter weekends. One person who remains in my memory is Sitap Singh, our house help, who also dished out scrumptious North Indian dishes. As my mom mostly cooked traditional South Indian, Sitap Singh’s Punjabi dishes we
