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. πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜ŠπŸ˜Š

SERVES: 4
PREP TIME: 10 mins
COOK TIME: 10 mins
  • 3 whole eggs
  • 1 small onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 small tomato (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 ...

Roasted Arbi in Mustard and Coconut Base Curry

Arbi/Taro is a really easy to cook and delicious root vegetable. Just like potatoes, you can cook it in a variety of ways from just boiling them to add in your salad with some nice seasoning to frying them to make chips. This was the first time I tried cooking with mustard paste so this recipe was quite experimental for me and I really wanted to try this for a long time. So, with some good online research and zest I successfully created this really delicious dish. Hope you enjoy it too. ...

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.

Nothing brings more joy than seeing a first attempt of any recipe coming out as a success. I added some pumpkin and other seeds as topping on my bread, but feel...
