So, my mother came to visit and actually requested Indian food. I had made a quick Indian potatoes, peas and cauliflower dish in Nags Head which she liked–apparently a lot. Once my head had stopped spinning, I started thinking about what I could make for lunch, since my dinner was already planned. The fact that…
Hyderabadi Qabooli (Hyderabadi Pilaf of Rice & Split Peas)
This is actually a post about a tremendously yummy Indian pilaf–although I am sure it looks like an advertisement for cherry tomatoes. What can I say, when summer hits I start putting those deliciously sweet little guys on everything and anything. This is a pilaf that caught my eye when I was looking for stuff…
Kheema With Springtime Greens
While my sister was visiting, we went to my local farmer’s market together. Josie is always up for a good farmer’s market, and for our town size (and even one bigger really), ours is excellent. While we were browsing through my favorite produce stand, we were discussing what to make while she was here. Ever…
Super Low Fat Dal #2
By the time this publishes, I will be minus 1 gall bladder. Which is a weird thought. I don’t know why it should be–after all part of my brain is sitting in a glass jar (or something) somewhere, so what should the loss of one non-essential organ matter? But there is just something weird about…
Super Low Fat Dal #1
As I mentioned previously, John’s parents were already coming to visit this past weekend, which left me with an entertaining dilemma. Not a huge one, mind you, I knew they would never expect me to produce a 5 course extravaganza or anything, but still as a hostess who likes to cook it is important to…
Steak & Potatoes, 2010
I have regarded the majority of my family as a lost cause when it comes to Indian food for some time now. Sushi and Thai my sister and I eventually got them eating, but something about Indian food was a problem. Recently however my mom had been making comments about dishes on my blog like…
Gobi Taka Tak (Cauliflower Sauteed with Peppers, Tomato & Yogurt) Served Over A Lentil Pilaf
Gobi Taka Tak, or Indian Sautéed Cauliflower with Peppers, Tomatoes and Yogurt is an easy, fast and delicious vegetable side dish for any curry, pilaf or main meat! This dish has proved to be a keeper, as I have made it many times since it was originally featured on this post. In November 2015 I…
Whole Indian Spiced Baby Potatoes
I love potatoes any time of the year, but new potatoes in the spring are the pinnacle of potato-hood. They are sweet, tender and delicious. They need very little adornment–any other roasted potato I might dip in ketchup, but not a spring baby redskin. This recipe is made for new potatoes. Roasted in a simple…
Blogging For Babies Challenge: One Pot Shrimp With Lemon Rice & Lentils
Those of you who know me in real life know that I have (now inactive) epilepsy and that I had a (“benign,” haha) tumor removed from my temporal lobe some years back, in addition to various medical emergencies subsequent to the tumor and epilepsy. It has given me, not surprisingly, a skewed perspective of the…
