Cabbage Poriyal. Muttai-Koss Poriyal. Cabbage Kura. Cooking more and more vegetables for the vegetarian’s need is a time consuming process! That’s too much of chopping, mincing and grinding! Besides, no one is ever-completely-satisfied! So, I often come up with a new twist to the same old-recipe n just hype a lot about the dish (with […]

If there is one cuisine (apart from an eclectic mix of many other) I had to eat all my life, I would probably choose Indo-Chinese. Why? The spices are mild, every dish is invariably with more vegetables, made with tangy-sweet sauces, and most of the dishes have a vibrant freshness to them (Green onions, bell […]

Hey, You all…I am back. I have been through some very exciting changes! Yes. First of all, I got my visa to visit my homeland (India).

When it comes to eating less and staying active, the hard part is choosing the right meal! One has to eat nutritious, and yet a simple meal to build that kind of stamina. But, chances are one could end up eating far less calories, and go starving…if haven’t practiced it in a while! So, filling […]

Having lived in Mississippi for nearly a decade,(before rooting here at Carolina’s)…sometimes, we consider it as our second native place (besides India)! And, when friends call…emotions just pile up & I end up cooking something Southern that day. On one such lovely day, we were endlessly chatting about the people we have got…how many amateur […]

For many reasons, home food has to be quite simple and hassle free. Yeah, on the other day…I was suffering from severe carpal tunnel syndrome, there is nothing much I could do. But, chores were piled up. And, yet there was the most demanding task of ‘vegetable chopping’! The very thought gave me the fright! […]

This rich, creamy, buttery…yummy Matar Paneer needs no introduction at all. Most probably the best known of all Indian dishes, and the first thing we South Indians order in the restaurants. Some of my local friends have absolutely no clue where India is. In fact they couldn’t even agree that am an Asian too!! But, […]
