Black Rice Curried Meatloaf with Green Grape Chutney

June 15, 2008 By Laura 3 Comments

I have been on a tear lately with recipes found online. I’ve (temporarily of course) left my cookbooks behind! Too bad you cannot submit more than once a week to Bookmarked Recipes… I tend to go in spurts like this. It happens. Anyway, I made a note of this recipe as soon as I saw…

At Long Last: Kandahari Chicken Curry

April 5, 2008 By Laura 5 Comments

I think we are all feeling better—although the kids’ noses are still running and I am still occasionally beset by awful sinus pain. I think that may be why I got so sick in the first time—I think a regular old cold probably coincided with the first bad tree pollen. We are new to the…

Baked Chicken Curry with Carrot Raisin Chutney with Baby Potatoes with Panch Phoron on the Side

March 17, 2008 By Laura Leave a Comment

As I mentioned in my last post, we were just out of town and are about to go out of town again. These can be very frustrating days, cooking-wise, because I am not home long enough to want to go to the grocery store, and because we eat leftovers I am frequently off a day….

Curries from the Pantry: "Mattar Tofu" with Chana Masala "Chutney"

February 28, 2008 By Laura 4 Comments

“Mattar Tofu” with Chana Masala “Chutney” My favorite restaurant style Indian dish is Aloo Mattar. John prefers Mattar Paneer, but they are essentially the same dish, one made with peas (mattar) and potatoes and the other with paneer (the homemade Indian cheese, similar to a cottage cheese) and peas. Ever since I made that Jack…

February 28, 2008 By Laura 5 Comments

Much like the Daring Bakers (stay tuned for that recipe, coming soon) I have been eyeing the monthly Bread Baking Day and wanting to participate. Well, this month I finally got my butt in gear and did so. The theme is flatbreads, hosted by Chili und Ciabatta and the rules are just to make and…

Home Cooking with Indian Flavors: Suvir Saran’s Smoky Bean Soup

February 5, 2008 By Laura 1 Comment

Smoky Bean Soup with Indian Spices

After reading a lot of online reviews for Suvir Saran’s cookbooks, I got intrigued and stuck them on my wish list. For Christmas, my in-laws got me American Masala, which is a fusion cookbook of American dishes with Indian flavors and a little bit of vice versa. The Smoky Bean Soup is the first dish…

Tales of a Compulsive Food Thief: Pumpkin Dal with Yellow Split Peas and Red Lentils Served With Naan

February 1, 2008 By Laura 1 Comment

I would like to introduce you to my dog Finnegan. We have 3 dogs: one German Shepherd and 2 Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. Finnegan is a Chessie and the middle dog at 6 ½ years old, and the most relevant at this moment because when he gets stressed—about anything—he steals food. So when you throw in…

Hi! I’m Laura and I am a recovering history major who has re-channeled all of my passion for learning about the history of different countries to learning about their food culture. That doesn’t mean every dish on here is strictly authentic, but it does mean that even my adaptations are not undertaken lightly. My goal is to show you–by doing–that these dishes are possible in your kitchen. Including desserts because I have quite the sweet tooth! Read More…
