Egg Bites


This recipe is perfect for an evening snack or even as a fun breakfast. I normally don't enjoy making the same kind of omelette or scrambled egg every time and am always looking for different ways to make my eggs. Some very rare days, when I'm in super hurry, I might fall back to a traditional recipe, but generally, nope! I was watching how unniappams are made one day and it just sparked this fun way for me to make my eggs. It's just so simple and such an amazing way to eat. I gobbled 4 or 5 of them just because they were so delicious. Well, for this recipe you will need an unniappam mold which, unless you are South Indian, is unlikely, but that's how I got the shape. I also whisk the eggs more than usual before adding the veggies to make them extra fluffy. 😊😊😊

SERVES: 4
 PREP TIME: 10 mins
 COOK TIME: 10 mins
  • 3 whole eggs
  • 1 small onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 small tomato (finely chopped)
  • 2 green chilies (finely chopped)
  • 1 spring onion (green part finely chopped)
  • ¼ cup cabbage (finely chopped)
  • ¼ cup carrot (finely chopped)
  • salt
  • pepper
  • coriander leaves
1. Whisk and add Ingredients: Break the eggs in a big bowl, whisk it well and add the veggies with some salt and pepper. Mix well.
2. Cook: Add some butter/ghee/oil in an unniappam mold and pour in the eggs in them. Make sure you pour only half way because the eggs will rise when it cooks. Cook this on a low to medium heat for 2 mins. Carefully flip the eggs, and cook for a min. Your egg bites are ready to snack on!

Raw Papaya Sabzi

This dish holds a very special place for me and it comes with a special story attached.  I was out with my mom a few days ago, shopping for groceries, when I saw some raw papaya and asked her if we can make curry with it. The way she looked at me in that moment told me that there was some story attached to this question. Later, when we were preparing for lunch at home, I asked her about it and she shared a piece of her childhood memory with me.  Growing up, her family was very poor and could not afford the luxuries that are accessible to us today. Most of what they used to eat was grown around them or they bartered with the neighbors. Papaya curry was one of the dishes that they often prepared which she shared with her 9 siblings.  Her story made me realize how blessed we all are today to be able get what we want in our lives and for that I am grateful. So I prepared this recipe for her and to dedicate it to the hardships she went through to get to where she is today an...

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...

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/   ...

Sri Lankan Prawns Curry

I have tried prawns in a variety of preparation styles and flavours but making this Sri Lankan style curry was my first. As always I was very excited to try out something new with a new combination of flavours and using a different variety of ingredients. This juicy prawns curry infused with the Sri Lankan spice mix I made from scratch and coconut milk base was exactly what I needed after a super hectic day. Traditionally you add the prawns heads into the curry for an additional depth of flavour. However, I had bought some pre-cleaned prawns from the market which had their heads removed so could not add the heads. In this recipe I have nevertheless written how to use the prawns heads in the preparation.  The curry definitely came out amazing and simply mesmerising. Hope you enjoy the recipe as much as I did.

Egg Dosa Hummus Wrap

Dosa is a staple breakfast in every South-Indian household. There are many ways to make dosa and you can add a lot of different fillings in it. Personally, I love a nice crisp dosa with some masala inside and a nice tangy coconut chutney to go on the side. These flavours are just the perfect combo. A few days ago I made some hummus and there was some still left over and this is what you get when a south Indian makes hummus; a fusion with their staple breakfast. I made this healthy wrap loaded with some delicious mix of veggies and some South Indian spices.

Chickpea Veggie Salad with Pesto-Hummus Dip

While pesto and hummus combo sounds a bit strange, believe me it works wonders! The creamy texture of hummus and flavour of pesto is just finger licking good. This dip is one of my favorites of all time. I have used it in almost everything, be it salads, sandwiches, dosa wraps or crackers it just gels well. Speaking of gelling, I fell in love with hummus when I visited a Greek Restaurant that had newly opened near my place in India and I was fascinated by it's interiors and food menu. Since I had no idea at that time what exactly a mediterranean dish was, I remember ordering a pita bread with hummus platter. The first bite of the pita bread dipped in hummus was just amazing! My words can't express those feelings. Sadly they closed down after few years. So, I tried my hand at creating this amazing dip for the first time with my falafal and hummus recipe and graduated to different varieties of hummus now. This is my take on hummus and I hope you like this recipe and enjoy it...

Broccoli Parmesan Fritters

Broccoli is a vegetable that I rarely use in my meals. I just kind of don't know how to make them properly and I feel nervous to make them simply as its own dish. On this day, I had ½ of my broccoli left in the fridge and it was about to go bad, and since I was already done with lunch, I decided to make a healthy snack to go with my evening tea. That's how I came up with the idea to make these fritters. With, an experimental mind and the nervousness of failing I gave it a shot. Not only did it turn out to be amazing, it was very light and full of flavor. This dish can also be made as a broccoli cheela and eaten as breakfast. It's super delicious and yummy. 😋😋😋 ...
