I can totally eat this for dinner with nothing else. Yes it makes a beautifully indulgent side dish with steak or salmon or roast lamb, but a double helping of this glorious dish, eaten whilst sat on the sofa in my PJs? Heaven. What do we need? Steps to make it (Full ingredients and recipe instructions in recipe card below) Potato Gratin is often a term used interchangeably with dauphinoise potatoes....

Dondakaya Pachadi is a classic Andhra style chutney that is popular and simple to make. Ivy gourd (tindora/tendli/gherkins) is abundantly available throughout the year in our part of the world and finds it way to our kitchen almost every week. You will find numerous Andhra veg recipes using dondakaya on the blog since I love this vegetable. And am wondering why it took so long for today’s recipe to make it to the blog....

1 Wash dondakayalu and nip the tip and tail ends. Slice them into thin pieces and keep aside. 2 Heat a heavy bottomed cooking vessel, add oil, once hot, reduce to medium flame. Add cumin seeds and curry leaves and fry for a few seconds till the aroma emanates the kitchen. 3 Add the dondakaya pieces and saute on medium heat for 3 mts. Add the sliced onions, reduce to low flame, place lid, let it cook, approx 15 minutes....

[feast_advanced_jump_to] Of course this isn’t authentic chicken gyros. Usually authentic gyros is made from skewering heavily seasoned meat (often chicken or lamb, sometimes pork) and cooking it slowly on a rotisserie (gyro actually translates to rotation). This is my ultra easy version – to get that juicy, crispy, spiced meat in super quick time. A way to get those beautiful Greek-inspired flavours to give you all of those holiday feels, without having to buy a rotisserie machine....

I recently developed a homemade funfetti cupcake recipe that may just be easier than your store-bought mix. So fluffy, so soft, spiked with vanilla, and bursting through the seams with colorful speckles. I made a batch of yellow cupcakes with chocolate frosting (with sprinkles!) for my birthday earlier this year and they were an instant hit. While my original homemade yellow funfetti cupcakes are outstanding, I wanted a fluffier, whiter, and cakier cupcake that is still as simple as my original recipe....

Have you ever tried roasted chestnuts? They give off a wonderful aroma when roasting and have a slightly sweet, nutty taste almost like a slightly nutty firm sweet potato when they’re roasted. Once the chestnuts are cooked, peel off the outer shell and they’re ready to eat.You could also use them for a Christmas or Thanksgiving stuffing, or I like to serve as a snack dusted with some sweet and salty cinnamon sugar to finish them off....

Edd’s desserts are masterfully wide-ranging, from the Anzac bars featured today to tahini swirl buns, and a gorgeous plum roll cake.

The Anzac bars are built with a crunchy oatmeal and coconut base, a chewy sweet layer of caramel, bittersweet chocolate, and a light sprinkling of salt flakes....

Whenever I cook eggs, be it for breakfast or lunch, I always try to cook something different from whatever I have cooked earlier. When I cook egg gravy for rice or chapathi, I often tweak the original recipe. Even a small tweak can change the flavor. Most times the curry turns out good. 🙂 Not only does it taste delicious, but the aroma that whiffs through my kitchen bring cheer to the soul....

Traditionally podis are hand pounded with each home having its own variations to the innumerable varieties of spice mixes, in terms of the quantity and type of ingredients used in preparing them and the flavor of each of these podis differing from home to home. Almost all traditional South Indian kitchens store atleast 2-3 varieties of homemade podis in dabbas or bottles, as these podis have a shelf life of more than four to eight weeks....

I’ve gotta say, whoever invented coconut flour is an absolute genius. It’s totally transformed my gluten free baking. So much so, that if i’m baking for a crowd that has a couple of gluten intolerant people, I can happily make one dessert that everyone enjoys. A couple of my other favourites are my GF Hazelnut & Nutella cookies and my GF pineapple upside-down cake. We had some family over last night, so I made some GF white chocolate and pistachio blondies too....

[feast_advanced_jump_to] It’s true – they are a bit ‘cheffy’ but we all like to show off in the kitchen every now and then don’t we?During my testing of this recipe Chris and the kids declared that we should have these posh potatoes with our Christmas dinner. There were lots of satisfied ‘Mmmmmms’ and ‘Ahhhhhs’ – which is good considering I literally just served them up a plate of potatoes for dinner....

Since the mornings can start warm, I’ve been having some fun and playing around with frozen breakfast ideas. Some of the typical suspects include frozen smoothies but also these easy frozen fruit granola bowls. I’ve been using Outshine’s non-dairy frozen fruit blends which are really tasty and refreshing (Also you save $2 when you buy 3 participating Nestlé ice cream products at Safeway. )The fruit could be pretty much anything you like, I particularly the ripe sweet strawberries and blueberries that are in season here but I’d also throw in a few fresh figs if I got my hands on them....

Warm fruity bread for breakfast without having to get up at 5am to get it ready for breakfast! This bread requires no yeast, no kneading and no proving time. You can have it out of the oven and cooling in an hour. I’ve always loved fruit toast for breakfast, and usually buy it in for weekends if I’m not making pancakes or sweet grilled sandwiches. I’ve discovered recently just how easy it is to make though....

No reviews An upside-down cake in itself is a marvelous invention. Typically a combination of fruit and sugar forms the lowest layer of the cake, and as the cake bakes, this layer starts to caramelize and release its fragrance and flavor into the rest of the cake. Once the cake is flipped over, a shiny, glistening layer of syrup containing notes of caramel and fruit is revealed. 2 ripe bananas* 4 Tbsp melted ghee 3/4 cup/150 g sugar 1/8 tsp cream of tartar 2 Tbsp water 1/2 cup/120 ml maple syrup (I like the dark amber grade) 3/4 cup/105 g all-purpose flour seeds from 4 green cardamom pods, ground 1/2 tsp baking powder 1/4 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp fine sea salt 4 oz/110 g unsalted butter, softened to room temperature 2 large eggs at room temperature 1/2 cup/120 ml creme fraiche or sour cream** Comment * Name * Email * Website Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment....

I love a good curry at the weekend. I’ll often reach for the ready-made curry paste out of convenience, but in fact it only takes 5 minutes more to make your own paste from scratch. The result is a fresher, more vibrant taste, with the added bonus that you can adjust the heat to whatever level you fancy. Nearly all of the ingredients are strong in flavour, but they meld together perfectly for a taste explosion!...

Bring together 1 chopped apple, 1 peeled and chopped cucumber, fistful of boiled lima beans, 1/2 cup broccoli florets (boil for 1-2 mts), 2 tbsps chopped spring onion whites and greens, orange segments, chopped coriander, 1 1/2 tbsp balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper to taste, 1/2 tbsp honey or any sweetener of your choice, few toasted walnuts. Toss well. Add any fruit of your choice. Monday high raw food diet ~ Morning: 6....

Go on, I dare even the grumpiest grownup to resist a smile when they’re handed a cup of dirt and worms to eat with a spoon. Even the worms are smiling like they’re in on the joke. 😉 Why Would I Eat Dirt? Ingredients You Need for Homemade Dirt Pudding Have you ever tried my butterscotch pudding before? The chocolate pudding is similar, but there’s no need for egg yolks....

Tell Me About This Homemade Stromboli Flavor: This recipe is more like a guideline because you can customize it with your favorite various fillings. Stromboli is a pizzeria menu staple where I grew up in Philly and I usually make it with Genoa salami, deli pepperoni, provolone, and mozzarella cheese. I love brushing the dough with melted butter, garlic, and fresh parsley for added flavor. Garlic powder, dried herbs, or even an Italian seasoning work wonderfully on the dough too....
