Flavorful Paleo and AIP recipes
The three months of summer just breezed by! I had been on a sabbatical from work yet I don’t know how the months flew by! I spent 5 weeks in India so that explains partly why I felt the time go by so fast. I spent half the time in kerala undergoing Ayurvedic treatment for […]
Fish curry is as essential to a Malayalee as water is to fish 🙂 I have already posted the typical Kerala fish curry that is cooked most often in our home. That curry uses coconut milk and kodampuli (a variety of kokum that is indigenous to Kerala). The version I am posting today is the […]
This is what memorable summers are made of ! Ok, so about a week ago, my blogger friend Chef Ronit who blogs at ‘Tasty Eats’ posted a recipe for spicy Crispy Chicken Wings which looked so good that I instantly knew I wanted to replicate her recipe. The most intriguing part of her recipe to me was […]
Cassava or Yuca root , called as ‘Kappa’ in Malayalam, is widely grown in southern India especially in Kerala and thereby is a staple in Kerala cuisine.

Banana Bread is a favorite in my house. I must make it at least once a month. Actually whenever I have over ripe bananas. Most of the time I substitute some part of the flour with whole wheat flour. And then lots of walnuts and dried fruits also go in. Hence I like to make […]
If you have ever had ‘Biryani’ before, then just the mention of the word is likely to tingle your tastebuds and evoke the memory of the wonderful aromas that is so characteristic of a good biryani. And if you are not served it shortly after, you will surely start experiencing cravings:) I have posted a detailed recipe […]
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. right? Then what do you do when you have left over rotis? Simple, do what the Gujjus do – make Khakhras 🙂 And I have found a super easy way to make them too. Just spread the rotis with some butter / ghee and pop them in the […]
