Chipotle Tomatillo Salsa recipe

Cold Spicy Tomato Soup with Avocado and Chives recipe

Inspired by a Japanese salad I had when I was in Australia. The salad tasted so refreshing, and the miso dressing added tons of flavour. An excellent salad.

Dal makhani or maa di dal, as it is popularly known in the punjab, with its smooth velvety texture and lovely flavour is a delicacy that is very much a dish of the punjab. Every punjabi restaurant, roadside eating place and food stall vendor makes the claim that this is a delicacy that they alone can make to perfection. This my own tested recipe dare i claim it as the best? dal makhani is traditionally cooked on a low flame overnight and allowed to thicken. Using a pressure cooker helps cook the dal in a jiffy. Serve hot with naans.

Aunt E.C.'s Pound Cake recipe

Sweet, sour and spicy, this delicious pineapple-chile chutney is packed with flavors. Serve it as a side dish with any Indian main course.

Didn't use pineapple, because I didn't have it on hand. But the chicken salad still came out succulent. My kids loved it. It was a great way to make my kids eat some veggies :)

Good option for breakfast.

A fresh take on spinach salad. This sweet and savory salad is a wonderful alternative to the bacon and tomato variety.

Used roma tomatos, basil and parsley from the garden, which made the soup super refreshing and tasty. Just make sure that when you puree the soup in your blender, use a towel to cover the lid tightly; or just use a hand mixer directly.
