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!

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/   ...

Misal Pao

This is one of the most popular Maharashtrian breakfast, brunch or snack and also one of the most famous street foods. Misal is a spicy dish made with moth beans/matki sprouts or mixed sprouts and served with pao (Indian bun).  There is a very famous restaurant in Thane by the name Mamledar which served the best misal pav where I grew up. Me and my friends would often go there to just binge on a plate of  the spiciest misal pav or as they call it zalzalit misal. This has the spiciest gravy (rassa) with a layer of spicy oil floating on the top. We would always have a competition on who could finish off the misal without sipping water in between. This heated binge session would then always conclude with a glass of nice chilled lassi.  Well, after moving to the Netherlands I missed having this dish and so to relive those moments, I decided to make this super spicy, delicious street food.   ...

Sabudana Khichdi

Sabudana Khichdi is one of the most consumed breakfast dishes in India and often consumed during fasting season. This breakfast dish is one of my favourites. It does not use a whole lot of spices and it's very simple to make it delicious and soul comforting at the same time. The only tricky part to this dish is to make sure all the sabudana (tapioca pearls) are not clumped up together and remain as individual pearls. As long as you maintain a good 1:1 ratio of water and sabudana while preparing, this should not be a big problem.  So continue reading to learn the recipe and I hope you like my take on sabudana kichidi.  😁😁 Press Enter and insert Image https://www.instagram.com/p/CDv7vt0jVTQ/ SERVES: 2 PREP TIME: 10 mins COOK TIME: 10 ...

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. ...

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/ ...

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 ...
