My son, Nehal relishes his favorite Mexican snack - tacos and I set myself the task of preparing home made taco shells right from scratch using corn tortillas, loaded with a delicious paneer-vegetable-baked beans filling as a tea-time snack and use the left over tortillas to prepare enchilada casserole for dinner. The tacos I prepare […]
Today I’m blogging three recipes - corn chips, tomato salsa and sour cream! At time, I get into those moods where I want to prepare dishes inspired by a cuisine different from the usual everyday food. So, during the weekend it was an all Mexican cuisine at home.
Eating Mexican food felt comforting, flavorful on […]
Over the weekend, I made some Mexican snacks - quesadillas, tacos, corn chips (nachos) with salsa and sour cream. Tacos and nachos are a regular at our home as Nehal enjoys them a lot.

I usually prepare these kebabs as a evening snack and serve with […]
Preparing different varieties of tiffin recipes for my 4 yr old is a daunting task, sometimes. Yes, after trying out a new recipe, I’m not sure if he is going to eat it at all. I guess, there are some of you out there who would relate to that. But then, it doesn’t stop us […]
This is one recipe I have been wanting to blog this past month. I first tasted these delicious chicken balls at a friend’s place, whose mother-in-law is a cook par excellence. My queries on its preparation made Chandralekha Aunty invite me into her kitchen to share this recipe along with another dish, an Andhra sweet […]

Bobbarlu, alasandalu, lobia, vella payuru, karamani - the names by which cow pea/white kidney bean/black eyed pea is known in different parts of India is packed with a lot of protein, dietary fibre and […]
