You can always make the kofta’s ahead of time like the night before. Let them cool completely and then store them in an airtight container in a refrigerator. If you don’t plan to use it within the next day or two then transfer these to freezer safe container or ziplock and freeze. Use within the next 3 months. Or for those busy weekdays or even otherwise you can use the store bough alternatives in place of kofta like the meatless meatballs from Traderjoes or Vegetable balls from Ikea....

It’s easy to go into carb overload during the colder months. Right now with the house extension going on, and my only method of cooking at home being a single plug-in hob, a microwave and a toaster, we’re starting to get into the habit of feasting on chips, large sandwiches and stodgy cakes. I’m not beating myself up about it. I know it’s only a temporary thing, and we’ll get back to lovely homecooked meals soon, but I would like to throw in the occasional nod to healthy eating....

This recipe was originally published in 2014 and continues to be a favorite. A lot of red velvet first timers always ask me… what does it taste like? Is it just red chocolate? Well, to be honest… red velvet tastes like buttery vanilla and cocoa combined; a harmonious marriage of chocolate and vanilla together, if you will. Dip all that into some pure white chocolate and you have one impeccably tempting dessert....

From-scratch strawberry cake has left me defeated for 2 main reasons: Strawberry cakes typically rely on artificial flavors. My goal was to produce a soft and moist strawberry cake made from real strawberries. I finally accomplished my baking goal with my strawberry cake. You tried the recipe and loved it too. After baking it in your own kitchen, you told me the cake is “unbelievable” and “phenomenal” and “as if someone had taken Breyers strawberry ice cream and put it into a cake....

My favorite part about cooking is the opportunity to experiment in the kitchen, however crazy the idea might sound, it’s fun! Things generally never work on the first try when I’m trying out something new, my failed experiments generally involve a lot of scribbled notes on paper stained with food, there’ll be asterisks to indicate what I should try to modify the next time round, basically it resembles a college student’s chemistry lab notebook....

I also wrote about the joy of using canned Indian mangoes for Taste and there’s an easy mango pudding topped with pistachios that I love to eat all the time. If you haven’t tried Indian mangoes, they are the best in the world and you can buy the canned ones at Indian grocery stores. It’s a game changer for me when I miss and crave that sweet heavenly taste and aroma....

It’s ironic that I’m writing a post about acceptance when I’ve always said I’ve never needed anyone’s permission or approval in my life. But after Saturday’s events in Orlando it made me realize in many ways I still think about acceptance and rejection on a daily basis. These are two words that I know I will constantly battle throughout my life. I didn’t realize how hard Saturday’s events would hit me, it made me think and I wanted to write, I wanted to share my thoughts here....

This recipe is brought to you in partnership with Red Star Yeast. What Is Babka? Babka has a rich history. When I read more about the treat as I worked on today’s recipe, I learned that it originated in the early 1800s with the Polish Jewish community. Leftover challah dough was filled with jam or cinnamon, rolled up, and baked. The babka we see all over the place today, I read, is much richer and sweeter than its ancestor....

Tell Me About These Apricot Cream Cheese Cookies Texture: Have you ever tried lemon ricotta cookies before? These apricot cream cheese thumbprint cookies have a similar melt-in-your-mouth texture with the bonus of a jammy filling. Cream cheese makes the dough extra soft and creamy, which I love in so many cookie recipes, like maple walnut tassies and cream cheese sugar cookies. The almonds add a little crunch, so if you crave a little texture contrast, don’t skip them....

An earthy, warm and delicious Indian dish, bharwa bhindi or stuffed okra. Our organic garden is giving us a good yield of fresh tender okra aka ladies finger over the past few weeks. So, bhindi stir fry and stuffed dishes with okra are in the making in my kitchen.

‘Bhey’, as referred to in north India, is a popular lotus stem recipe but I didn’t stumble upon it until after my marriage. My husband once asked me “Have you eaten Bhey Mutter”. My immediate response was “What is Bhey?” He then told me that it is one of the popular delicacies in Punjabi cuisine & one of his favorites. I then had to Google this recipe or even better option - ask my mother-in-law 🙂 She is an excellent cook & my go-to-person for any authentic Punjabi recipe....

Is this pot pie or casserole? Maybe both? Pot pie is usually prepared with pie crust and baked in a pie dish. It’s so satisfyingly delicious and my double crust chicken pot pie is our go-to when we crave the regular version. But today I’m showing you how to make a vegetable-filled rendition topped with biscuits. After cooking the creamy filling on the stove, you can bake the assembled casserole in a deep-dish pie dish or any 2....
