Spinach Kadhi Recipe This spinach kadhi has mild spicy taste. If you prefer more spicy then add few slit green chilies in the kadhi while it was simmering. On regular basis, I usually make gujarati kadhi to go with my gujarati khichdi or rice. One day I had very few palak leaves left after making palak methi muthia. And I was just thinking what should I do and I did not get any idea....
What are stuffed paneer kofta? Kofta means the dumplings made from minced meat or veggies or paneer or potato. In this recipe it is made from grated paneer. To make paneer kofta we need some biding agent. For that we are using besan aka gram flour. For delicious flavor, we are adding few spices and fresh herbs like cilantro and mint leaves. Also chopped cashew nuts and almonds are used for stuffing....
In reality I love pumpkin, just not always in traditional settings like muffins, lattes and pies. I like to venture out and enjoy it instead in its most pure forms, like stirred into an old fashioned oats with just a touch of brown sugar and cinnamon. The flavor speaks subtly of fall, just the way I prefer it. Recently I’ve been making creamy pumpkin oats with almond milk and nestling them over a layer of blueberries....

When I think of summer, cobblers, crisps, and ice cream come to mind. Also, bike rides, beach trips and patio drinks. What about you? This summer I’m determined to further explore my love for berries, starting with this simple blackberry cobbler. Shall we begin? There’s something extremely romantic and effortless about a fruit cobbler to me. I suppose it’s because it’s a dump, mix, and bake sort of recipe – my favorite kind....
Origins of Alfredo While fettuccini alfredo originated in Italy, it’s not the cream-based sauce you might think! We were surprised, too. It turns out the authentic Italian version is made with just pasta, butter, and Parmesan cheese. It’s believed that the dish was created in Rome, Italy, by Alfredo di Lelio for his pregnant wife. Then in the early 1900s, he served it at his restaurant to Hollywood actors who loved the dish and brought the concept to the US....

As you know that Rasam is integral part of South Indian meal. They make it almost every single day. As the name says, it is made with tomatoes. The sour, tangy flavor comes from tomatoes only. No tamarind is used here. There is another version called tomato charu (Andhra style) where tamarind extract is used. I will share this version some other time. I would like to have this tomato rasam alone like a soup....
While we have a vegan burrito in our cookbook, I’d yet to make one with tofu. And, truth be told, this version is a bit easier to make. No rice, no beans, no slaw. Just spiced, scrambled tofu, roasted vegetables, ripe avocado, and a sauce of your choice. Now that you’re imagining yourself with a vegan breakfast burrito in hand, let’s get to it! Origins of Burritos It’s not clear when or who invented the burrito, but there are several theories that place its roots in Mexican cuisine....
Not too much – not a whole pan. Just enough to enjoy alongside your favorite soup or chili. This, my friends, is that cornbread. Vegan cornbread for two! I was very much raised in a cornbread-loving family. My mom made cornbread all the time, especially with chili, and we always had it with butter and maple syrup. Does it get more American than that? Not much has changed. I still enjoy a hearty bowl of chili with a fat slice of cornbread smothered in the good stuff....
Origin of Nicoise Salad Like many dishes, the origin of the nicoise salad is a topic of debate. But most historians believe it originated in Provence, which is a region in southeastern France. It’s thought that it was then introduced to the US by Julia Child and has been adapted by many over time. The following is our inspired take on this delicious salad! How to Make a Vegan Nicoise Salad You guys know that turning dishes plant-based is my jam, so this salad has been a long time coming....
These cookies were inspired by fall, first and foremost, but also by my 1-Bowl Vegan Funfetti Cupcakes! I overfilled the muffin tins with batter on my first try and quickly realized that the overflow baked perfectly into a sugar cookie-type consistency! In that moment, I knew vegan sugar cookies were not far out of reach. This recipe is easy and fast! Just 1 bowl, simple methods, and 1 hour start to finish (frosting and all)....

How to Make Strawberry Frosting It all starts with fresh, vibrant strawberries for their antioxidant-packed, vitamin C-giving goodness....
However, I’ve been thinking of a way to vegan-ize gratin while keeping it simple, natural, flavorful, and gluten-free. No easy task, but I think I’ve cracked the code. The magic starts with vegan parmesan cheese. Have you tried it? Dairy-free and vegan friends, if you haven’t you are simply missing out on fairy dust GOLD. Trust me, I have loved parmesan for years. I used to put it on my eggs at breakfast, my soup at lunch, and my potatoes and salads at dinner....

As in, serve them to your 80-year old grandmother who’s been making biscuits for centuries and she wouldn’t know the difference. As in, slap some gravy on it and you’d think you died and gone to heaven. As in, fluffy, buttery, savory, biscuit perfection. It’s true.

Usually this kind of ‘okra fry’ dish is made by deep frying the bhindi to get the extra crispy texture. But to make it healthy and so we can have it on day to day basis. I have shallow fried them with little oil. Added besan will help to make it crispy. For shallow frying, always use non-stick and wide pan (not deep). The non-stick avoids the sticking. When wide pan is used, okra are arranged in single layer while cooking....
