Flavorful Paleo and AIP recipes
Valentine’s day is just around the corner but last weekend was our wedding anniversary and so I had to make a special cake! Since hubby dear in general does not love sweets but adores nuts I decided to make a chocolate almond cake replacing part of the flour with almond flour. I actually got the idea for this […]
When I decided on doing the ‘Around the World series'(see my earlier post on this), Spain was one of the countries that I definitely wanted to learn more about. Spectacular natural landscapes, such diverse history, home of flamenco and bull flighting, marvelous architecture, and of course its varied, colorful foods …made Spain first on my list of […]
When I started my blogging journey a year ago I wasn’t exactly sure about many things. Wasn’t sure whether I should do a separate blog for Kerala recipes, whether I should blog about the different Indian cuisines too since I cooked that also on a regular basis. And then there was my other motivation of exploring […]

What’s your favorite kind of food? If asked that question, I know it’s a little hard to come up with an answer ..one answer that is! OK so how if I ask you – what’s your favorite kind of appetizer? Appetizers are ‘teaser’ foods’, irresistible…where one cannot control the urge to grab a bite! As for me, […]
So what if we are in the midst of winter with sub-zero temperatures…hey ice cream is welcome anytime 🙂 After the holidays I was left with this large tub of ricotta cheese in my freezer. Had planned on making stuffed shell pasta but somehow didn’t get to it or rather didn’t need to with so […]
While growing up I did not mind helping my amma in the kitchen when she was cooking although I did not like to do any other household chores per se (especially washing dishes or clothes! ). One thing that I also did not like doing was to clean the greens and chop them for making […]
A very happy new year to all of you folks!. Finally I am done with all the sweets and the desserts! How about we go back to some simple, comfort foods for the next whole month? Sounds great doesn’t it? And this bhindi coconut curry with some plain rice is just what I need.! 🙂 […]
Nuts – whether they are almonds, cashews, pistachios or peanuts -you will always find these in my pantry. The ‘Mr’ loves to snack on these. So I am constantly replenishing the jars and they can never be empty because he will throw a fit. Over the years I have also acquired this habit of snacking on […]
A thing of beauty is a joy forever. A cheese cake that has two types of cheese – cream cheese and mascarpone and two types of chocolate – swirls of both white chocolate and milk chocolate …mixed gently and baked slowly to get a perfectly looking cake! Now that’s what I call a thing of […]
Although winter is my least best season, I really love December. There is so much to do! Holiday shopping starts early with not only shopping for gifts but also clothes and kitchen items since everything seems to be on sale! Even if I don’t end up buying anything for myself or the home ultimately, I still need […]
