I tried this Kurkuri bhindi long back and had this post in drafts so thought of posting it now.I love bhindi / okra so much, so any recipe with bhindi is a winner for me. I am sure kids will love it too, you can serve it as a snack or as a sidedish for rice.I usually make okra sambar or bhindi stir fry or sometimes a semi masala version like aloo bhindi so this bhindi fry was an inviting change....

Ya gotta love shrimp! It’s one of those ingredients that take very little effort to work with. Tasty, and super versatile! I always keep some frozen raw shrimp, already peeled and deveined, on hand for quick use. Armed with a large skillet and a bag of shrimp, I can make a mean shrimp dinner in minutes. My garlic-parmesan shrimp, for example, takes 10 minutes, tops! And if you loved my earlier shrimp pasta or garlicky shrimp scampi, you’ll want to give this lemon garlic shrimp with peas and baby artichokes!...

Weeknights can be busy so I tend to lean toward simple skillet meals like this Mediterranean chicken recipe. It’s loaded with bright, fresh flavors thanks to the tomatoes, olives, and lemon—plus, like my one-pan Chicken and Asparagus recipe, cleanup is a snap. One skillet, a knife and a cutting board and you’re done! I usually serve this recipe as it is, but it’s easy to stretch to serve a larger family or a crowd, by serving it over pasta or rice....

Cucumber tomato salad goes by a different name where I grew up in Egypt: salata! It is an everyday Mediterranean salad made of three main ingredients: tomatoes, cucumbers, and parsley. It’s seasoned simply with kosher salt, though I like to add sumac for a little tang and depth. This simple Mediterranean salad is as traditional as they come. It’s very representative of the regions’ agricultural roots and the fresh flavors we continue to love to this day....

We’re hanging out in the Eastern Mediterranean today where I get my love of lamb from…and where, before there was chicken, lamb had been the meat of choice. I’ve talked quite a bit about lamb already. From Easter roasted leg of lamb and braised lamb shanks, to my “fancy” date-night dinner, Lamb Rack with Herb Pistachio Crust. (Off record, my mother would never defile lamb rack with a green crust....

I can’t take full credit for the idea; this pomegranate tomato salad is a version of one I saw in Yotum Ottolenghi’s Plenty More—a beautiful cookbook with all sorts of vibrant vegetarian recipes. This is another tomato salad recipe with Eastern Mediterranean undertones to it. So few ingredients combined in a surprisingly delightful way. Slightly sweet, but sharp and tangy pomegranates, compliment the savory, sunny sweetness of tomatoes. Enhanced with fresh mint and shallots....

Mar 09, 2009, Updated Sep 11, 2024 I just don’t possess the self control to allow something tempting to sit there, wafting away its warm deliciousness, while I bite my nails and make myself busy trying to distract myself from the call of the fresh something, sitting on top of my stove. I may be completely cool myself, but “cool completely” is still usually beyond my reach. However, now that I am taking photos of those warm, fresh somethings, I have learned to flex my resistance muscle and wait out the cooling period, for the sake of a prettier picture....

I wanted to try a pasta recipe with mushrooms for a long time…say ever since I started cooking pasta at home. Finally gave a try few weeks back and should say mushroom with pasta is such a delicious combination, sure a match made in heaven! I referred this recipe from Good Food magazine and was titled ‘pasta in mushroom garlic sauce’. This is not a perfect white sauce recipe, its just my attempt to create a low fat version of white sauce…....

Crisp slices of cucumber, a creamy herbed labneh spread, and soft bread make these cool, airy cucumber sandwiches. The ultimate elegant finger food, most versions of the simple cucumber sandwich usually have mayonnaise or cream cheese. But in this recipe with a bit of a Mediterranean twist, I mix labneh (soft and slightly tangy yogurt cheese) with dill, parsley, and basil for a spread that takes these sandwiches to the next level!...

The very first time when I tried paruppu urundai kuzhambu I felt it was a very lengthy process with few confusions and was disturbing amma now and then. Now that I am making it at ease after few years of making thought I should have this recorded in my space for my readers and for my future reference as well. What is Paruppu Urundai Kulambu? ‘Paruppu Urundai’ means lentil balls and Kulambu / Kuzhambu means gravy or curry....

Warm summer days call for drinks made with fresh and juicy in-season peaches. This super simple Peach Bellini recipe uses sweet peaches, pureed and topped with ice-cold Prosecco. It’s a Venetian tradition dating back almost 100 years! Like a Tinto de Verano or Carajillo, you need just two ingredients to make this classic cocktail. There’s no added sugar, and it makes a great base to try out your favorite flavor combinations—who doesn’t love options?...

Like many Italian cakes, pear cake is simple to make, requiring no special equipment or ingredients. Whipping the eggs and sugar forms the basic structure of the cake, trapping tiny air bubbles, which expand during baking into a light and fluffy cake. Many recipes call for dicing the pears and incorporating them into the batter, the same way we make our Italian Apple Olive Oil Cake. I prefer to arrange thin pear wedges on top of the batter before baking....

Jun 20, 2015 I’m basically beside myself. I doubt there is another human being who gets so excited about fruit. In fact, I convinced my babysitter to eat strawberries the other day, despite the possibility that she’s allergic. You see, they were picked at their sweet, ruby prime and they were red ALL THE WAY THROUGH! Which is what I kept exclaiming after every bite, as I jumped around waving half-eaten berries in her face....

The perfect cauliflower salad for the fall! The beauty of this healthy roasted cauliflower salad with butternut squash, is that it combines the simple comforts of roasted vegetables with fresh, crisp salad greens – all dressed in a delightfully bright lemon-honey vinaigrette. Roasted vegetables, particularly roasted roots like beets or butternut squash, taste great simply cooked with a drizzle of olive oil and salt–the kind of comfort I look forward every fall....
