Adding spices is one of the most simple ways to flavour rice, jeera being one of my favourites. Nothing better than Jeera rice made with ghee and some shallots. It takes hardly 5 minutes to make and goes well with pretty much everything- South Indian as well as North Indian curries. From Chettinad Potatoes to… Continue reading Jeera Rice

This dish happened because my mother wanted to clean out the fridge and there were a bunch of leftovers in the fridge from one of my burger experiments.

It is super tangy and creamy from the yogurt and lemon. Packed… Continue reading Tzatziki

Something that is easy to make but is super delicious. My mind jumped from tarts to puff pastries and to quiches just to accommodate this combination. But… Continue reading Roasted Beetroot and Feta Flatbread
