Turkish Bread with Za'atar Spice and Baba Ghanoush Dip

I came across Turkish bread for the first time after I moved to the Netherlands and I bought it from a Turkish shop near my place. Absolutely fell in love with it! The softness and flavours were just amazing and right then I decided I am going to try making my own batch. This is absolutely lovely and versatile; you can pair it with anything. You can make a bruschetta, pair it with some shrimp salad or have it with some dip like hummus and baba ghanoush. I paired mine with some creamy baba ghanoush and a generous garnish of za'atar spices. The best part about creating this dish was that it was so simple and easy to make. In my head I had inflated the difficulty too much and was expecting some really hard and tricky process to it, but it turned out to be so simple! Not to forget the excitement I got when it came out as amazing as I was expecting. SOFT, FLUFFY AND DELIUCIOUS! So, read on to know how I made this amazing bread with a simple and fool proof method. ...

Puttu with Kadala Curry

Puttu is a staple breakfast dish in south India popular in the states of Kerala and Tamil Nadu. "Puttu" means portioned in Malayalam. It is a very filling and hearty breakfast dish made with rice flour mixed with salt water and typically steamed in a puttu steamer with coconut shavings in between. Sometimes a bit of jaggery powder is also added to make it a bit sweet. My husband loves to eat puttu with elaichi bananas or other small bananas; mixing it with the puttu. I came across this dish after I got married into a Malayali household and got exposed to a lot of Kerala recipes and dishes. My mother-in-law makes really amazing puttu and Kadala curry. So, after I moved here to the Netherlands I wanted to give this a try. I didn't have a puttu steamer, so I asked my mother-in-law and she gave me the idea to steam it inside a coconut shell which is also a popular traditional method of cooking. It was totally worth all the effort and to be honest it was really ...

Roasted Eggplant with Balsamic Vinegar Dressing

Eggplant is one of those vegetables that prepared wonderfully can make you fall in love with it, but then anything less than perfect makes you just hate it. They are a great substitute for meat and personally, I love to experiment with it, prepare it in different styles and try out new recipes. Being married to a meat lover, it's quite an undertaking to prepare a vegetarian meal that he would love 😕😕.  Recently I got my hands on some fresh eggplants that were exactly what I needed for the recipe I had on my list for a while. Since eggplant is the hero of this dish, it is important to make sure you choose the best one for the recipe. I t's important to pick out the right size and kind. Bigger may not be always better as they might have a lot of seeds in them and tend to have a spongy interior. There is also a trace of bitterness in them that require salting to remove. So , look for ones with smooth, shiny skin that are uniformly colored and feel...

Mackerel Curry

I recently discovered this recipe on my usual inspiration hunt online and decided to give it a try. During my grocery run at the city centre before, I decided to have a look at the fresh fish store and got some amazing looking mackerel filets. I had not decided on the recipe at that moment, but then I happened to have everything at home for this recipe and things simply fell into place. Normally I am into masaledar, spicy and coconutty fish curries but this time I did not have any coconut milk at home and I was also feeling a bit lazy with my cooking. This recipe was an absolute delight for my mood with an amazing tangy, sour flavour of tamarind and vinegar and a slight sweetness of jaggery. Quick and simple! Totally worth it and definitely recommended.  Press Enter and insert Image https://www.instagram.com/p/CI276lADeR5/   ...

Shimplya - Malvani Masala (Mussels Curry)

I have had this recipe on my bucket list for a long time. When I saw these fresh mussels in the store, I immediately knew what my next dinner meal would look like 😁😁. Malvani shimplya is definitely one of my favourites. This style of cooking mussels is simply the best.  When I moved to the Netherlands, I carried some of my favourite spice mixes with me including this Maharashtrian malvani masala. Malvan is basically a town in the Sindhudurg district of Maharashtra and this masala is curated from that region. I am a hard core fan of these masalas and anything cooked in these spices are on my list of favourites. So you can only imagine my excitement when I got my hands on these awesome fresh mussels. The aroma of the spices and the mussels that filled my kitchen when I was cooking them simply took me on a trip of Konkan Maharashtra. I one hundred  percent  recommend this dish. Mussels + Malvani spices = "Heaven" Pre...
