Nutella Filled Linzer Cookies
When I look at the recipes I had bookmarked to try this year, I wonder if I will ever be able to reach the end of my list. Actually, is there an end...will there ever be one! No...not for me! I feel I am just getting started. The holiday season is bringing plenty of excitement to my baking … Read More

You know the kind.. when you look at the dessert, you immediately want to take out your mobile phone a snap a picture. The one … Read More

Ginger and Chilli Chicken Dumpling Soup
Every time I talk about rains in my posts, it is followed by comfort food. Today is no different. It has rained all of this week keeping us indoors, craving for some fresh air. The little sunshine that followed almost tricked me into believing that the weather has improved and twice I found myself … Read More
Croissant Pudding
There is not much to write about a Bread and Butter Pudding since it is so popular and probably one of the simplest recipes that exist. I make it all the time for my kids with different fruits, nuts and accompaniments. It is one of those recipes that you make and eat without giving much thought to. Then one day while flipping through a cookbook, the words 'Croissant Pudding' caught my eye...actually it was the picture that got my attention. Neat slices of pudding cut and served onto a plate. The idea instantly appealed to me. After all looks do matter and variety is the spice of life! And for some reason nothing excites me more than a recipe makeover. We are big fans of Croissants so the hardest part is to let it stale for a day. My husband was quite disappointed when he found out that they were meant for a sweet recipe and not being served with afternoon tea. However, the kids loved it and went back for seconds. The pudding is not too heavy or rich on account of soaking the croissants in custard for about an hour, as the original recipe stated. Serve it with fruit or cream or even caramel sauce. The best thing about this pudding is that it tastes great, warm or … Read More
Curried Chicken Noodles
An easy and simple chicken noodle dish that is flavored with curry powder and made nutritious by adding vegetables. I am yet to find a kid who does not like noodles. In fact it would be easier to say that kids love oodles of noodles! And then there are endless varieties to choose from. Though I love what Instant noodles have to offer in terms of flavours, pricing or time-saving options, I would generally not recommend it for my children. The simple reason for that is that is comes with preservatives and additives which can have harmful effects on the body. It is obvious that the flavour of the Instant Noodles lies in the seasoning mix. So replacing it with your own seasoning and adding it to home-made noodles can give you similar or better results without compromising on health. My ultimate standby seasoning is the spice blend called Curry Powder. I use it in soups, add it to rice, roasted vegetables, grilled meats and so on. Adding it to noodles enhances its taste and is a nice variation to the typical flavours. Curry powder is available in most supermarkets and Indian stores but if you want to control the ingredients in the spice blend, you can make your own. There are … Read More
Tuna Sesame Patties
A week from now, my twins will be turning 4. Watching them grow and turning into independent little boys has certainly been the most amazing part of motherhood for me. Not everything has been perfect though, and the challenges were numerous that came with twin motherhood. Having said that, if I had to talk about the rewards that I am reaping every moment, I could really shout from the rooftops about how lucky I am. I could go on and on but that is not what this is about. We are here to talk about food so let's get going! When I asked my boys what kind of food they would like me to cook (apart from the cake) I received so many answers and names of dishes. I experienced equal amounts of surprise and pride at how much they understood of food ..of something that means the world to me! By no means will I be able to make all of that on their birthday so I decided to make and post a few of their favourite dishes through this week and the next. In doing so, I will also be addressing the question I get asked most 'what do your kids eat?' or 'do they eat the desserts on your blog?' Trust me, you are not going to see fish and chips or spaghetti bolognaise or even pancakes (that is … Read More
Date Night Hot Chocolate with Chocolate Ice Cream
Whether you are about to crank up the heaters in the Northern Hemisphere or heading to the beaches (I know I am...our weather is just suited for that at the moment) in the Southern Hemisphere, I've got you covered in this post. Of course there are things that are neither bound by season or time and are great in any form. Yes, I am talking about Chocolate and unable to contain my excitement about this interpretation of chocolate, I just dedicated an entire Category to Chocolate recipes in my Recipe Index page. Hot chocolate needs no introduction. I've added chocolate ice cream to it and the hot-cold combination is just so amazing. And to make it special or rather 'Date Night' worthy, I have added a splash of Kahlua. You can add any liqueur of your choice...I'm thinking Irish Cream next time! Honestly, I was never intending to post this because my blog is about recipes that are carefully thought about and researched, experimented, given personal touches whether it is about creating them or styling them. And this one is a no-brainer! But the pleasure you derive out of this simple recipe just overrides everything else. So, whether you are on a romantic date or a busy couple … Read More
