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)
  • 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!

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.

Mixed Sprouts Curry

Sprouts are a rich source of protein and you can have them as salad or just saute them with some salt and pepper and enjoy them in a simple way. I love sprouts and make them quite often for lunch or a snack. My most favorite way to have them, however, is in a nice tangy & spicy curry base with some hot bhakri or rice. My mom makes it in the most amazing way and I remember I used to drool when when she made it for lunch. This recipe is comforting and delicious like a comfy blanket as a meal. So, I'm sharing this recipe from my mom that has been one of my top favorites of all time. I hope you like it as much as I do.

Overnight Oats Bowl with Fruits

This is a super simple and super delicious breakfast idea. It's the best breakfast when you are in a rush and have no time to make your meal. You can prepare everything you need for this on the previous day. For me, this is also an amazing source of pre-workout calories because I'm always hungry right before my workouts. It can also be a really amazing desert if you like puddings. I always prepare this the night before and keep it in the fridge so that I can enjoy a nice chilled oats pudding in the morning. I don't add any sweeter, just raisins and fruits and let their natural sweetness leech into the pudding. For some crunch I also sprinkle some nuts and seeds. ...

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/   ...

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 ...

Mango Milkshake

Mangoes are one of my favorite fruits of all. It's the best thing about summers in India. It just brings me a lot of joy. As a kid I used to eagerly wait for the box of fresh mangoes every summer. Every year on his way back from a work trip, my dad would make sure he gets a box of mangoes for us. I would then sit in my veranda with my plate full of mangoes, smearing it all over my face and clothes and completely upsetting my mom. Any guest who visited us during this time would be served some amazing fresh mango milkshakes and that always reminds me of some nice family times. Me and my sister would be on our best behaviour just to score some extra milkshake. Every time mom cut up a mango for us, we would fight over who got more pieces and of course who gets to eat and suck the flesh around the seed. So, towards the end of this summer, with a lot of nostalgia, I decided to bid farewell by preparing my favourite milkshake. Hope you like it as much as I do. ...

Kori Rotti

I have been wanting to have this dish since I had heard about it. I happened to meet my upstairs neighbor who is from Mangalore when she needed some help with her cat. After meeting a few times, we bonded well especially over food and she invited me home for lunch one day. She had made the famous "kori rotti" for us πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹πŸ˜‹. Finally, I got to taste this dish and it was just as amazing as I had heard. The crispness of the rotti with amazing juicy chicken gravy on top is simply mouth-watering delicious. I would definitely recommend everyone to try out this amazing recipe and let me know in the comments below how you find it. Enjoy πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜Š!! ...

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.
