Flavorful Paleo and AIP recipes
Are you ready with your Thanksgiving Menu plan yet? As for me, I think I am (and I will share my menu in my next post) but I keep adding more things to the menu! That is very typical of me and it annoys my husband no end! He always keeps telling me that there […]
Ok after just posting the Coconut Barfi recipe yesterday, here I come with another Barfi recipe! Actually this chocolate Barfi is something I have been meaning to try making for the longest of times! And I wanted to make an AIP version which is really hard since you need something that’s rich like milk solids […]
The holiday season is here! Yes the holidays begin early in our Indian household since Diwali, the festival of lights is usually around end of October or beginning of November. The dates of Diwali change every year since it’s based on the Hindu calendar. There are two important things to remember about Diwali – […]
When I first started on AIP almost 5 years ago, the biggest challenge for me was not being able to eat rice. Rice and curry had been my comfort food for 40 plus years and not being able to eat that was hard. I was never a big fan of wheat rotis or chapatis. […]
One of the main reasons why I have been able to stay grain free(largely!) for the last 4 1/2 years is because I try to create grain free versions of my comfort foods. My comfort foods are the foods that I grew up with. I was born and raised in Mumbai, which is western India […]
Yet another chicken curry you ask? Well…I can only say that this is one chicken curry that you definitely need to try! If you eat once, you will remember forever! Really, what’s so different about it? Kormas have their origins in the Mughal empire and they typically consist of meat cooked in a thick sauce […]
Hi guys! Spring is here finally! It’s hard to think that we have been under varying stages of lockdown for more than a year now! But I guess we have many things to be thankful for! Thank God for technology like FaceTime and WhatsApp Video calls which have made us stay connected with friends and […]
Happy Holi! The festival of colors is tomorrow but this year once again the Holi spirit is low because of COVID-19. It’s hard to imagine that a full year has passed since everyone has been under various stages of lockdown! Hence to feel the Holi spirit, the only way left was for me to cook […]
Goat meat also called as mutton is quite popular in India more than beef since many Indian communities consider cow to be sacred and do not eat beef. I used to love the mutton curry that my dad used to make on Sundays when we were growing up. It was an elaborate process and my […]
Happy Diwali to all! May the New Year bring health and happiness through out the world. This year because of COVID-19, everyone has veep stuck at home and now it’s almost the end of the year! For us Diwali starts off the holiday season. This year I have been so busy with my consulting practice […]
Mangoes are my most favorite fruit. Yes there is nothing like mangoes! Anything goes when it’s mangoes 🙂 Yes I love to eat it as is! Love to make it into a lassi…or a smoothie…or just as mango pulp/puree to be had with pooris (deep fried bread)! My ‘Mango Pie‘ is pretty famous among our […]
Rotis or Chapatis are an essential component of Indian cuisine. And that’s because you need some kind of bread to sop up all those delicious curries and stews correct? One of the things that helped me stay compliant on AIP early on was my discovery of cassava flour and the fact that I could […]
