Exploring world cuisines - Irish eggless soda bread, quick & no yeast or fermentation

3/28/2017

0 Comments

 
One day in this month (March), I suddenly felt like exploring world cuisines at home. I don't quite know how I got the thought, but i wanted to randomly pick a world cuisine, read all i can about it, pick some famous dishes, and try out the recipes for you guys right from my kitchen. The idea was awesome and I was so excited! I picked Irish cuisine randomly to start with... I read a lot about their way of cooking, eating and ingredients. 

As soon as I say Irish, what are the things that come to your mind?
St. Patrick's day?
Irish coffee? Baileys? 
May be more... after researching a bit about Ireland, I came to know that its the birthplace of good music. Heard about Trinity college which certifies Music learners, thats in Ireland. Even folk music is famous, their landscapes, not to mention their beer & whiskey, etc. Their cuisine uses a lot of potato in their dishes after 16th century. It was the cheapest vegetable they could get in times of war and draught. It's a simple, hearty, seasonal and comfort cuisine. So let's have a look at some of their famous dishes, so next time you go to Ireland or a restaurant, you could give these a try.

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!

Paneer Butter Masala in 15 minutes

Paneer butter masala
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!

How to make Methi thepla / Methina thepla (Fenugreek leaves flat bread)

2/10/2016

0 Comments

 
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.

Simple flavourful Jeera rice Recipe - Karnataka special

1/3/2016

0 Comments

 
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.

Quick Mushroom/Aalu mutter gravy - Simple North Indian Side dish

1/3/2016

0 Comments

 
We love splurging ourselves into rich gravies for any rice or rotis.. But when it comes to making them at home, we run out of ideas or feel lazy to make them.
This is quite a simple recipe, without much back breaking work. And it's in fact healthy too since we are not adding cream. You can add any vegetable or paneer, since this is a basic gravy base recipe. I made this gravy for as an accompaniment with jeera rice, and it turned out well. It even tasted great with dosas too, no doubt with rotis. Let's get to it then...
