After posting one biryani & one pulao recipe, for the last day of the marathon I am sharing a recipe that falls under the other rice varieties category. In the other varieties of rice, the rice is fully cooked, then seasoned and/or tempered with spices to enhance the flavor of rice. When I announced the… more

After yesterday’s lengthy post on Biryanis, I am not sure how to start this one. Well, at my home, non-vegetarian rice varieties are usually biryani and the vegetarian varieties are usually bagara and annam (rice) prepared with the fresh legumes such as fresh garbanzo beans, fresh Indian broad beans or valor lilva and anapakaya or… more

Biryani,Pulaos, Fried Rice; both Chinese & Indian style fried rice are one of my favorite one pot meals. If any of these rice varieties are on the menu, I do not need anything else; rather I cannot see any other food on the table. All I need is some riata to go with the rice… more

For the last day of “deep fried food made healthy by baking” theme, I chose to do spicy peanuts. I contemplated between peanuts & potato fries. Potato fries have been on my to-do list for quite some time but I have seen way too many baked potato fries making rounds in the blogosphere and was… more

Once upon a time, when I was little, fried chana dal was prepared quite often as a snack. Whenever palaharam (snacks with longer shelf life) was made at home, fried chana dal was often on the list. Gradually it disappeared from the list and always wondered why? I liked munching on spiced chana dal as… more

I am starting blogging marathon # 18 under the theme “deep fried foods made healthy by baking or steaming”. I must say, it is one of the most challenging themes I have done so far in these marathons! When I chose this theme, I had a few recipes on mind but never tried them. I… more

I am concluding my blogging marathon # 17 with healthy V8 rasam. Rasam or chaaru (in Telugu) is a South Indian soup. Rasams are one of my favorite Indian comfort food that tastes awesome with hot rice or can be drunk as it is if mildly spiced. There are many types of rasams and I… more

When I decided to do “cooking with store bought mixes”, all I could think of was desserts and sweets; brownies, cakes, trifle pudding and if these were not enough, I went and picked up sheer kurma mix and vermicelli pudding mix from the Indian store. I told myself I was not going to do more… more

This is my second week of blogging marathon in the new format. For the next three days, I will be posting under the theme “Cooking with store bought mixes”. I am not a big fan of store bought mixes but at times, these are time savers. I am starting this week on a sweet note,… more

It has been raining all day today and it was definitely not a salad kind of a day. I wanted to make a nice hot soup instead. Since I have to stick to my theme, I made this quick salad. I usually like my melons unseasoned and when growing up, I use to add some… more
