Now today's recipe is a simple one and easy for beginners too. I had Baingan or big eggplant variety lying in my refrigerator for a week. Everytime I was postponing to cook with it. I wanted to try something totally new. I saw this recipe on Youtube and compared many recipes to finalise my dish and it came out pretty well. It's a yogurt based curry but also spicy, based on how spicy you want to make it. It is a great option when you run out of onion and tomato at home. I added a potato to make it appealing for my husband, you can also try that to make kids eat it. It goes well with Roti, chapati, pulao and even rice too. I did not click any good pics before we finished it off today. So here is a short snippet from my instagram story of the dish. Lets move on the actual recipe.
It's been ages since I've posted any recipe on my blog. Not because I stopped trying new recipes, (that's partly true since i keep my cooking to basic and simple dishes nowadays) but because I need to get back to blogging after a big break. I do share my recipes and everyday cooking on my Instagram page. I've decided to post more this month, let's see how I fare at it.

Hi people, I know I've been lazy updating my recipes on my blog out here for a while :/ But I'm really active on multiple other platforms. Juggling between work, home, family and a lot of other exciting things in life as always! I really dont find time to write lengthy blogs on the dishes i create or the DIY i loved. But i always like to keep sharing, thats my life's motto. I am trying out sharing my experience, recipes and tips on Youtube these days. Lets see if videos can be faster to update and a little more interesting. Other than that, I will be back to blogging soon, with lots of information on various things like Healthy food, Keeping yourself fit, DIY, Life or Kitchen hacks, etc. Look out for those! Please do subscribe to me on Youtube, Facebook and Instagram, by clicking on the social icons below the video or on top right corner. Now enjoy the video recipe and let me know your comments below. :) Cheese Balls - A yummy quick snack for cheese cravers like me. Easy to make with available ingredients and i have made it quite healthy here ;) Cheese is protein guys, as long as you don't gulp more than 20-25g (1 cube) a day. Is this picture enough to get you believe that a shortcut method to cook actually works! After we started the WTC group, we talk about so many cooking shortcuts and recipes on a daily basis. This technique was totally new to me and had never heard of it! It's called OPOS - One pot one shot technique.
It's a technique where there will be a max of two steps and one cooker used to make the dish. No standing near the stove spending your life sautéing vegetables! So I decided to give OPOS a shot and chose a gravy as a safer option to try first time. And I must say I became a curious fan of the technique and how it works! Some dishes tend to stay in your mind even if you have not had it often. May be you haven't even heard of them and suddenly you become a fan of it. Yes, thepla is one of the dishes which stays as a sweet memory bringing back my days in US. We used to buy Frozen theplas, reheat them and have everyday with some hot masala tea/ chai in the morning.
We started the WTC (What to cook) group and again I was reminded to try making theplas at home. This is a group where we inspire each other to cook everyday and help out with deciding the menu. Recipe shares too is obvious. Thepla is a flat bread or paratha types, originally from Gujarati cuisine. This Methina or Methi theplas made out of fresh fenugreek leaves. You must make it or taste it to understand why I crave for these flavoursome rotis. You actually don't need any side dish to have it. It is a wholesome food by itself and nutritious too. If you had been to a local restaurant or food joint in Katanataka, you would have definitely not missed to see or taste this wonderful rice item on the menu. Initially I too thought what's Jeera rice?? Is cumin a major ingredient? I don't like their taste.. Reminds me especially of the super beneficial jeera water my mom gives me during childhood times. But I got acquainted to this item and it's really flavorful. If you like variety rices for your lunch, you must add this to your menu.
If you have been trying different recipes for a rich and creamy paneer gravy, then your search is finally over. This one is super simple and quick enough to impress your loved ones with its richness and taste. I went ahead and added whatever veggies I had to make it a mix veg korma, but you can choose to add your favorites or use only the Paneer.
Lets move right to the recipe... No more Rambling! |
