Korean fried chicken wings are crazy delicious This is the kind of stuff I dream about. Korean fried chicken wings are so crispy they are loud when you bite into them. Loud. That’s music to my ears. These wings are way better than most restaurants make. This is what would happen if good restaurants served Korean chicken wings. The coating is ultra-crispy. The chicken super tender. The sauce sweet and salty and spicy....

I took the Korean fish stock out of the recipe. No pulling the guts out of dried anchovies here. Just some simple chicken stock instead. Pork belly I kept. The world needs more pork belly. It’s a bit fatty so it adds a wonderful richness to the stew. Tofu is a traditional ingredient. I like it because it adds another texture. Don’t like tofu? Just leave it out. Kimchi jjigae is a little bit spicy This recipe is a bit spicier than traditional kimchi jjigae....

I love a good pork chop. And Korean style pork chops are one of my favourite ways to serve them up. Something about the umami-ness (like that’s a word) makes me smile. Get to know Korean food I have a thing for Korean food. Not sure why it isn’t more popular. It’s a little bit spicy. And it’s different from other Asian cuisines. Distinct. It’s not all about kimchi and Korean BBQ either....

If you could taste sunshine, what do you think it would taste like? Lemons, of course. There’s something about Fall that makes me want to pack as much sunshine into my life – and my belly. And lemons, with their bright, happy flavor, can make any meal that much sunnier, especially when they take centerstage. This Lemon Garlic Rice is inspired, just a little, by one of my favorite South Indian dishes....

If you love creamy korma curries, be sure to try out our beautifully spiced vegetable korma, or this navratan korma fit for royalty. I’ve been making this Malaysian Mushroom Korma for many years now, and I had shared it with you almost a decade ago. But like many old recipes on the blog, it was in need of some refreshing, so this time, when I made it, I got some new photographs for you....

A stuffed aloo paratha or gobi paratha is delicious. But when I want a paratha that is just as tasty and nourishing but one that also comes together quickly, I turn to simpler recipes like spinach paratha, where the greens are simply mixed in with the flour. This methi paratha meets that bar, and it’s so delicious, you might want to eat it at every meal. And you can, because it is healthy enough and versatile enough to be served at any meal....

You might also like recipes for other Indian street foods like pav bhaji, vada pav and ragda pattice. There’s no way to actually describe a Misal to you other than to say, you must eat this. You must, you must, you must. Misal is – like most of Bombay’s hallowed street foods – an explosion of flavors and textures. It’s a spicy curry of sprouted beans topped with raw onions, boiled potatoes, crispy farsan (fried chickpea squiggles) and coriander leaves....

This is more approachable version of miso ramen. One anyone can make. And it doesn’t take 2 days. Sometimes you just can’t wait 2 days for soup. Miso ramen is one serious bowl of soup The Japanese have taken miso ramen to almost mythical status. Real miso ramen is an incredible experience. If you ever get to Japan, seek it out. On the surface it seems so simple. Noodle soup....

on Mar 02, 2015, Updated Oct 21, 2024 Today I am going to share one of my favorite recipes from my mum’s kitchen. It was a difficult choice because my mum is a fantastic cook and we usually go gaga over everything she makes haha. But this Gulab Phirni is a crowd-pleaser! It’s really easy to make, doesn’t require a lot of effort, and the hint of rose petals keeps you wanting more with every bite....

on Oct 14, 2024 If there’s one Diwali dessert that you’ve got to try out this season, it has to be this Orange Makhana Pudding.

on May 15, 2016, Updated Aug 29, 2020 I have a weekend project for y’all – these Oreo stuffed double chocolate brownies because weekends are meant for indulging! And these brownies are an indulgence. They are slightly gooey, definitely fudgy, cakey and STUFFED. I’ve always been fascinated by this concept of stuffed brownies because they just look so cool. And imagine, it’s like a double whammy – brownies are already an indulgence and then you stuff them with your favorite food – Oreos in this case and they reach some God like status....

Desi was born and raised in Madras (or Chennai, although he insists on calling it Madras still) in a very traditional family. But when we got married, his parents and six siblings were more than welcoming to the new daughter-in-law even though she had short hair, didn’t wear saris and didn’t speak a word of Tamil. What did rattle them, though, was that I didn’t know how to cook Tamilian food....

Spinach salad with strawberries and poppyseed dressing. One of those fruity salads that I don’t usually go for. I’m more into fresh greens and a mustard vinaigrette. But this one is really good. The creaminess of the avocado against the bright strawberries and the tangy sweet dressing. It just works. It’s a celebration of strawberries. Don’t make this when strawberries are out of season. Please. Make it when they are at their peak....

For a cook, summer has so many rewards. There are all those fresh fruits and vegetables. The fact that it doesn’t take a day and a half for your bread to rise. And, for a bean-lover, there’s the magic of sprouts. My sprout obsession kicks into high gear every summer. While sprouting is a great idea at any time of the year, the heat does the job much faster. If you’re a novice to sprouting, there’s no better time to start than the summer....

We love that the original G&T doesn’t need much work or intense bartending skills....

I make this one almost every time I cook Indian. It gets made a lot. Probably the dish I cook the most. Tarka dhal is super simple to make. You cook some lentils with a little turmeric. Cook them until they are mush. And then you make a seasoning. That’s the tarka. It’s as easy as frying up a bit of onion and spices. Mix it up and eat. It’s delicious....

You might also like vegan and gluten-free multigrain pancakes, vegan carrot cake pancakes and vegan sourdough blueberry pancakes. Healthy pancakes may sound like an oxymoron, but they are very possible, as these healthy and whole wheat vegan pancakes prove. These vegan pancakes are fluffy, tender and they come together so quickly. You need just over five minutes to put the batter together and minutes later you and your family will be sitting down to a delicious, wholesome breakfast you will be proud to serve....
