I first prepared this Tex-Mex cuisine inspired dish from Nita Mehta’s ‘Mexican Vegetarian’ cookbook, a few weeks ago along side a meal consisting of home made corn chips with mango salsa, mexican rice and watermelon agua fresca. I made it again last week on a special request from my blog visitors.
The soft swollen dumplings […]
Murali, an avid foodie, techie geek, ace photographer, studying film-making, presently working in Australia and a close family friend wanted to share one of his favorite recipe and asked me if he could do a guest post. I am more than happy to oblige with his request.:)
I’m sharing one of my favorite recipe using tindora, […]
My friend sent me some fresh water prawns the other day and also shared a lovely recipe of prawn curry. It was pretty quick to prepare and it turned out amazingly good with well balanced flavors - redolent with the sweetness of coconut and subtly spiced. Curry leaves, khus-khus and coconut form the essence of […]
Today’s curry is possibly one of my favorite combination of eggs and drumsticks, only after Egg pulusu though.:) I have an overabundance of drumsticks, fresh from the backyard garden and have been using them pretty often in my cooking lately.
There are numerous ways to cook eggs and while preparing a gravy or curry, vegetables […]

For JFI-Potato, I’m […]
Sometimes all it takes is a small bowl of pachadi with its myriad flavors or a roasted papad to bring that extra comforting taste to a meal. I wanted to make a sabzi with that extra zing to perk up our lunch (with roti and salad), when I chanced upon this recipe from a cooking […]
Chikkudu kaya happens to be a favorite vegetable in our household and I know there are quite a few of you out there who are not very fond of these mildly sweet plump beans. I always felt there is something addictive about the beans, especially during their non-availability in the local market and when those […]
Dondakaya happens to be one of my favorite vegetables and I just realised that I have blogged only one recipe of Tendli/Ivy Gourd, a stir-fry (vepudu). In Andhra, dondakaya being available all year round, this humble, rough vegetable is a regular with most kitchens concoting some wonderful recipes and transforming it into something exotic and […]
The much awaited part of Sankranti is Kanuma, the third day of the festival, celebrated with a culinary feast replete with non-vegetarian favorites. On that day, recalling a recipe of my friend’s mother, I whipped up a chicken dish using coconut. I’m glad I prepared it, as it turned out beyond my expectations.
The only […]
