Cooking & Baking with Love
As you know last week, we went to New Mexico for a whole week vacation. We loved learning about the culture and eating our way as much as possible. There were so many places that we could not try and are worth trying. Here’s a small list of places we ate, and some were great, …
Delicious green chickpea hummus so vibrant in color to serve as a dip or as a side. Served with purple potato chips and its a real feast to the eyes.
Mashed potato and paneer stuffed koftas in creamy rich tomato sauce. Serve it with naan or jeera rice.
These spicy fried cauliflower tacos are so delicious! Serve them with some slaw, mango sauce and lots of pico de galo.
These Phyllo stuffed with gujiya parcels are my take on traditional Gujiya. A crisp flaky baked pastry stuffed with sweet khoya or mawa, coconut and dry fruits. A popular Indian sweet specially made during the Holi festival.
Kala Chana or Black chickpeas in yogurt-based sauce. This dish is prepared by simmering black chickpeas in an aromatic sauce made with onion, garlic, creamy yogurt and chickpea flour. So creamy and delicious; pairs perfectly with rice or rotis.
Look no further for a Holi festival inspired Nut Butter that’s creamy and smooth with Indian-inspired flavors of Thandai! Made with three types of nuts, fennel seeds, saffron, cardamom and more. Your toast game is elevated.
This blood orange cake is filled with juice and zest from blood oranges and topped with sweet, candied blood orange slices and chopped pistachios. Cake has delicious crumb, is moist and flavor, tangy aroma of blood oranges. Perfect with a cup of coffee or latte! This is the most delicious cake.
Palak Muthia is a delicious easy snack in Gujarati cuisine. Muthia is made with whole wheat flour, vegetables and spices that are then formed into logs and steamed. These steamed muthia are shallow fried with some whole spices. They are crispy from outside and soft from inside.
Bharela Marcha Nu Shaak – Stuffed Peppers with toasted ground peanuts, chickpea flour, sesame seeds and dry spices make this delicious dish.
