After my graduation, I was in Ahmedabad for my company's training(TCS ILP) and that was the time I tasted Aloo Parathas. Being in North India for the first time, I enjoyed these Parathas which was different from our regular chapathi. Most of the days I had Aloo Parathas both for lunch and dinner. After coming home, I asked my mom to prepare that, but she doesn't know it. I learnt to make these kinds of stuffed parathas after I started the day-to-day cooking. I am making it quite often now since Happy loves it. Do check out my broccoli paratha and gobi paratha recipes as well.
I am excited about my very first participation in an event, and I am looking forward to learn and try new recipes!
Yes, I am talking about the International Food Challenge (IFC). It is evolved to explore all the cuisines from all over the world. This is evolved by Saras of sarasyummybitesand Shobana of kitchensecretsandsnippets . They have teamed up to welcome foodies , our talented food bloggers to join in this mission to learn , explore the world cuisine along with the heritage every country possess and get to know some ideas what every country has to offer with respect to food .
How it works:
The host and the founders are the one’s who will go through the cuisine of the given month and they will narrow down the results to 3 top most recipes. In the beginning of every month, say on 1st, the host of the given month will let out all the three recipes in detail along with the link and the members have to select the one they like and should submit the challenge on the said date, which is 30/31st of every month.
The best presented dish gets the privilege of being the cover picture of our Facebook page for the whole month along with their copyrights. How cool is that !!
Do you have the urge to learn the world cuisine as simple as that, you want to try some new dish one at a time, then, what’s stopping you foodies, come join us let’s form a group and let’s get started.
Join our FB group HERE to get in touch with the event as well as for the latest updates.
This is one of the very simple and easy to cook vegetables. Initially, I hate almost all the stir fry/Poriyal I make with cabbage, beetroot, carrot, beans ,etc. Later I found out that I overcook all the veggies adding more water. Now I have corrected myself and the Poriyal's I make comes out excellent. In my opinion, veggies should not be overcooked and it should be crunchy. It should be cooked by sprinkling less water and within a few minutes, it should be removed from the flame. Grating beetroot helps me cook fast and here we go for the recipe of the fastest Poriyal :)
When I was in my second trimester, daily as a part of my lunch I have greens. After having it daily, I was bored with the spinach Poriyal and totally hated the smell of spinach. So I started having this Dal Palak and I like having spinach with dal. Now, at least twice in a week, I try to include the Greens in our meals. Apart from Dal Palak, I prepare Spinach Poriyal and Spinach Chappathi as well. And, here we go for the recipe.
Eid Mubarak to all my friends and their families. Hope everyone is enjoying the long weekend!!! I am not ready with any Ramzan special dishes this year. Hopefully, by next year you can find a list of dishes. So this year to celebrate this great day, at least I wanted to share a Chicken Recipe. This is a pretty simple recipe and it can be had as a starter or side dish along with Noodles, Fried rice or Roti. The honey glazed fried chicken pieces when mixed with the Spicy Tangy sauce tastes Yummy!!
Vegetable semiya upma is one of the simple and healthy breakfast recipes. I love this upma very much and I call it as noodles during my school days. When I was in the hostel, my friend Angavai and I enjoy it, while other friends don't like it. Even Jany doesn't like and he never tries any upma variety. This is the first time, I made him taste it and he liked it. There are two varieties of vermicelli, thick and thin. This Semiya upma comes out well with the thin variety. The thick ones can be used for Payasam. I prefer adding veggies with this upma and it is purely optional. If you are a semiya lover like me, then please check the Semiya Biryani, Semiya Payasam and Semiya Kesari recipes as well.
