on Jun 20, 2016, Updated Oct 09, 2023 Hellooo foodie friends. Today is an ultra special Monday because I’m sharing the kind of deliciousness you should start your week with, every week. I’ve been having this lychee cherry swirl ice cream for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Because it covers my daily intake of fruit. Or that’s what I’ve been telling myself. Kidding. But that’s not the only reason today is special, this lychee cherry swirl ice cream is also part of an amaaaazing #icecreamweek where a bunch of my must-follow food blogger friends and myself are hosting a GIVEAWAY with some amazing prizes including an Ice Cream Maker from Cuisinart, an Ice Cream Scoop from Zeroll, Vanilla from Rodelle, Containers, Popsicle molds, and a Scoop from Tovolo, and the Sweet Cream and Sugar Cones cookbook which has 90 delicious recipes for making your own ice cream, plus a few more surprise goodies....

on Aug 15, 2021, Updated Oct 05, 2021 The day I made these momos at home, I was amazed at how easy these were to put together. Not only that, but they’re also super versatile! You can stuff them with just about anything – vegetables, paneer, cheese and mushrooms, chicken or pork. I’m sharing the recipe for both vegetarian momos and chicken momos. This recipe makes steamed momos, but you can also deep fry them....

on Sep 18, 2016, Updated Nov 17, 2023 This weekend has been a whirlwind of everything we weren’t supposed to do. We had big plans which all started with cleaning up that one room in the house that’s still full of boxes. Yes we moved into this house three months ago and no we still haven’t finished unpacking. Clearly, planning and executing isn’t our strong suite and instead of staring at that pile of boxes, I figured it’s just better to bake some coconut pistachio banana bread instead....

I love using my air fryer to roast Brussels sprouts. But when I have a little more time on my hands, nothing can beat the delicious perfection of these oven-roasted Brussels sprouts with rosemary and garlic. I love Brussels sprouts. There’s so much you can do with them, from this creamy Brussels sprouts stew to this vegan orzo risotto with shredded Brussels sprouts. Brussels sprouts are also super healthy – one of the healthiest veggies you can eat....

What is honeynut squash? Honeynut squash is a relatively new entrant to the vast market of winter squashes. It looks like a baby butternut squash and it is indeed a hybrid version of butternut squash, only sweeter, with firmer, deeper hued coral flesh. The story goes that it was bred specifically so cooks would not have to add so much sugar or honey or maple syrup to get a delicious tasting butternut squash....

There are days when even the most enthusiastic cook craves the simplest of foods. Foods that are utterly easy and incredibly fast to make and yet taste divinely delicious. Starchy veggies like potatoes and plantains hold immense potential for the time-strapped cook. They taste amazing and are very versatile. Most of us know that about potatoes which we mash, bake, fry, boil, saute, blend and grate all around the world into bogglingly delicious dishes....

As a lover of the sweet and spicy Indo-Chinese food, these udon pepper noodles are my ultimate comfort food!

Upma is something we ate often in my parents’ home, and it features with some regularity now in my kitchen when I’m looking to make a quick and nutritious breakfast that cooks up in under 30 minutes and pleases everyone. This is one of those recipes that, albeit south Indian in origin, has perhaps infiltrated every Indian household, no matter where in India it is, because it’s just that good....

on Jul 25, 2022, Updated Apr 27, 2023 If you didn’t already know this, I am pretty serious about my Chinese food. I’m always working on recreating that authentic Indo-Chinese flavour (you know, same as the ones from your favourite local Chinese joint) using simple ingredients and minimal effort. Love Fried Rice?

Diwali is a time for lots of great food, a lot of it sweet, and in Indian kitchens the flurry begins weeks in advance. Sweets like laddoos and burfis and savory foods like chivda and chaklis are cooked and stashed away for the big day, to be eaten and shared. Since most Indian sweets make liberal use of dairy products, including milk, butter and ghee, I’ve made and shared with you vegan versions of Indian sweets that are just as tasty and do not involve any animal products....

I have for you today a vegan chocolate whiskey cake that looks rather plain but tastes simply gorgeous. I first encountered this recipe in the New York Times Food section and was smitten, but it needed some veganizing, most importantly to replace three eggs and butter. The final result was stunningly similar, visually, to the Times’ cake, and I am pretty certain my vegan version tastes as good. The whiskey adds great flavor to this cake–it’s not as strongly flavored, as, say, a rum cake, perhaps because the chocolate is also such a dominant flavor, but you can definitely taste it....

The reason I love broccoli rabe is that slight bitterness. It’s so addictive, and it makes this terrific leafy, to my mind, more suited to pasta than most other leafy greens. That unique flavor of broccoli rabe, almost by itself, turns this humble pasta dish into something special that makes me cook it over and over again. There are many reasons I love making this vegan Garlic Pasta with Broccoli Rabe....

If you love the idea of a cupcake with lots of chocolatey flavor, mounds of fluffy frosting and a touch of booze, these vegan Irish cream cupcakes are the dessert for you! The cupcakes have all the delicious elements of a vegan Irish cream: coffee, vanilla, chocolate and Irish whiskey (an ingredient that’s seriously great in cakes, like this vegan chocolate whiskey cake). When I’d make these cupcakes before we had a kid among us I’d add a teaspoon of Irish whiskey to the frosting and it was a showstopper....

A vegan frittata is a great go-to for those days when you want something delicious for breakfast or a hurried lunch without spending hours at the stove. It takes literally minutes–10 minutes at most–to put everything together, and then all you need to do is let the oven cook it up for you. Why you will love this frittata Creamy Yummy Healthy Protein-packed, thanks to the tofu. Easy and quick Mostly hands-off...

Breakfasts and desserts around here often tend to be lemony, because lemons and sugar? It’s a combination that infuses any food with sunshine. Take, for instance, this vegan lemon pound cake, these vegan cream cheese cookies or this vegan lemon cake with a vegan lemon curd topping. Of late, we can’t stop grooving on these vibrant Vegan Lemon Rolls with a Sticky Lemon Glaze. The rolls are fluffy and tall and they are infused with lemon at every stage....

I’m the kind of person who loves to eat everything (so long as it’s not from an animal) but cannot eat the same meal two days running. So when I decided to eat fewer carbs at my doctor’s advice, I promised myself I’d learn to make healthy, low-carb versions of all the foods I love....
