Roasted Red Pepper And Strawberry Soup
16|02|2016

The weather in Sydney has little to do with soup at the moment. It certainly has a lot to do with strawberries.They are in abundance and I thought it was time I get a little creative with them. I have to admit, I am a bit tired of eating them raw or with breakfast, dessert and drinks. I've made enough frozen treats. Cold soups have never been my thing. So why not savory..a warm strawberry soup, I told myself! I had a jar of roasted red peppers at home and the combo paired well in my mind. Something new! Something delicious! And you really can't go too wrong with them. Taste wise, this is similar to a tomato soup which is acidic and sweet at the same time. There are bags of flavour in this soup that I did not want to dilute by adding cream or milk. If you like a creamy soup, by all means go ahead and add coconut milk or fresh cream. A hint of balsamic vinegar gives it depth and honey completes the balance. What stands out is that you can taste or smell or feel the presence of the strawberries but they are not overpowering at all. Finally, it's a delicious soup, looks dainty but impressive enough to hold your guests attention and curiosity. Notes: I used store bought … Read More

Lemon Meringue Tart
9|02|2016

Happy National Pancake Day! I know, there's no pancake in this post. But you know what! I am so bad in remembering days other than a few birthdays and some important dates that I am making it a a point to be a bit more aware and alert this year. Actually, I did forget again but thanks to Instagram and social media I've been seeing mouthwatering pancakes all morning. I craved pancakes and thought I should make some. But there was this lemon meringue tart in the fridge along with chocolate cake, a no-churn ice cream in the freezer and a panna cotta duo in the making. There's too much going on so pancakes are on hold at the moment. Let's eat lemon meringue tart! I was going through my recipe archives when I realized I haven't shared the Lemon Meringue Tart recipe that I make so often, especially for picnics and get-togethers. It makes a medium sized tart, so easy to move around with, simple to make and I've been making it since years. When I was trying my hand at tarts for the first time, I struggled to get the rolled pastry on to the tart pan. It would tear or just would not be enough to fit into the pan or sometimes the dough would be too hard to roll as I left it too long in … Read More
Pots de Creme with Rose and Pomegranate
4|02|2016

Rose flavoured desserts were a big part of my childhood. While flavoring milk, cardamom, saffron and rose would take precedence over chocolate and vanilla. Even before I tasted anything with rose, the colour of the dessert/drink would catch my eye. Rose pink as they call it. Such a soothing colour and such a refreshing flavour! Pots de creme is another favorite in our house. The tastiest and easiest way to use up those egg yolks. Can you believe that a few egg yolks and cream can whip up something so delicate and spectacular? The flavours you can play with are endless and some are right there sitting in your pantry. Like lemon or orange (a tsp of zest does it), cinnamon, maple syrup, honey, coffee, chocolate or plain vanilla. Want something more creative, use ginger, berries, nuts, caramel, lavender,coconut, saffron and the list goes on. The addition of rosewater in this dessert reminds me of warm summer days back home and chilled glasses of rose milk that my Aunt served up after a tiring game of catch with my cousin at the park during school holidays. 'Did you wash your hands?' she would look at us questioningly. All I could think of was that glass … Read More
