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!

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 ...

Rainbow Salad Bowl

For the longest time I couldn't understand how people can have just a bowl of salad for lunch and be full. It just didn't register. Coming from a country that loves food and where food is an expression of love itself, it was too difficult for my teeny tiny brain to comprehend. It's only when I moved to Europe and experienced my first salad bowl that I truly understood. It felt like a nice warm hug during gloomy days. I completely agree that salads can be boring sometimes and just not as tasty as you would want it to be, that's why I try my best to make my bowls interesting and delicious every time. Now, even my mom is a fan of my salad bowls. I keep adding and experimenting with the dressing and this time I just tried my first ever roasted and stirred rainbow salad bowl. Hope you like it. 😊😊😊 ...

Just an amazing way to makes eggs!!! I had never made eggs like this before. I'm not at all a morning person, and if I do manage to wake up super early, I want my breakfast to be high in protein and be something that keeps me full for the rest of the day. I usually have an omelette with some mushrooms and cheese in the morning, but ever since I stumbled upon this dish, I wanted to try it out. So, this morning I quickly googled the recipe and whipped out an amazing breakfast shakshuka. As is my style, I have added some extra spices in my version, but feel free to avoid them and make it your own.

Glühwein / Mulled wine

Glühwein or mulled wine is a German/Austrian holiday drink that most people have during the winter season. This   alcoholic beverage is a must-have during the festive season here. Interestingly, this wine is also known as glow wine as it is warm and when you drink it, it makes you glow from the inside. It's a warm & cozy wine infused with spices and citrusy flavours which is perfect for the cold and freezing winter weather. I stumbled upon this wine during my first Christmas in the Netherlands last year (2019). They were lighting the Christmas tree at the city center and the streets were crowded and lined by food carts selling delicious Christmas treats, desserts and warm  Glühwein. This year however, we are under a strict lockdown due to the ongoing pandemic and with everything shutdown we couldn't experience the beautiful Christmassy vibe outdoors. So, I decided to bring the Christmas vibe indoors and made my own batch of this cozy, warm drink. So, here you ...

Falafal Flatbread with Classic Hummus & Veggie Topping

These are perfect as a snack or a party platter. I love falafal and falafal in the form of a flatbread is just wow.  There is no actual falafal in this recipe but the ingredients used to make falfal like chickpea, cumin, garlic, parsley, coriander, olive oil are used to make this flat bread.  I used hummus and some salad veggies as topping and just fell in love with it. You can also use yogurt or muhammara dip. I actually used two kinds of dip here, on one of the flat breads I added some pizza sauce to the base with salad vegges as topping and for the second one I used hummus. I honestly loved both of them. You can pick your favorite 😊😊.  It was a complete hit with my family and friends and we enjoyed it thoroughly. Hope you all enjoy this recipe as mush as we did. Do let me know in the comments below how you like this recipe 😊😊😊. https://www.instagram.com/p/CC0xKvRjzmt/ ...

Black Channa Curry

This delicious black gram curry is perfect for a quick lunch meal. It's a one pot meal bursting with flavors and an excellent substitute for a meaty meal day. Black gram is an excellent source of protein and fiber and has many health benefits.  I learnt this recipe from my mom and simply love to have this with some hot steamed rice or puttus. Well, in our house this is usually combined with some hot steamed puttus with the entire family sitting around the dinning table and chattering away stories. During navratri my mom would boil them and stir them in some coconut oil with some mustard and green chills and garnish with some coconut to serve as an offering to the goddesses. Growing up I loved to nibble on these as snacks while studying for my test or just binge on it while watching TV. So read on to the recipe and let me know how much you liked it in the comments below 😊😊😊 Press En...
