This is one of my signature recipes which is liked by all my friends! My husband waits for an occasion to invite friends home and then asks me to make this one.. Yeah I don’t make it that often when it’s just the two of us cause of butter and cream quantity.
Paneer butter masala is Cottage cheese(paneer) cooked in blanched tomato gravy and spices with dried Fenugreek leaves (kasoori... Pav Bhaji
Two words that comes to my mind when I think about pav-bhaji are “Aamchi Mumbai” and “Sukh Sagar”. It’s a little restaurant in chowpatty beach, South Mumbai. Though I am not a big fan of that particular beach in Mumbai, there is always a prompt “yes” to dig into the pav bhaji from Sukh Sagar.
I decided to make my version of the Sukh Sagar Pav-Bhaji and overwhelmed when it tasted great and just likes theirs.
... Virgin Margarita (Non-Alcoholic)
Margaritas is practically national drink of Mexico and everyone loves margarita! Its a lime flavored drink mixed with a shot of Tequila.

Its going to be very difficult for me to describe this intense chocolate cake experience in few words. It’s so good that you have to bake one and experience it yourself. I am sure, you will never get to the ingredients part if I start to describe. A few words are more than enough to know how good the cake is: moist, yum, all in one bowl, crowd puller, romantic & how come it got over... Shrikhand
Shrikhand, Traditional Indian dessert most popular in Maharashtra and Gujarat. Simple and easy recipe with hardly any effort. It is made with strained yogurt & sugar. Saffron, Cardamom, Mango are most popular flavors. There are so many variations like strawberry, vanilla coming up everyday.

Arisi-Thenga payasam is a traditional quick payasam. Made with rice-coconut-jaggery. All the ingredients for this are always in stock in a South Indian house that makes it even more simple and easy. I prefer the sugar based payasams than the jaggery but this is an exception!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup of Raw rice
1 cup coconut (grated)
2 cups water
1 Cup boiled milk
1 cup Jaggery... Mango Lassi, Mango Smoothie with Yogurt
This drink is a rich, popular Indian beverage with fresh mango, milk, yogurt, and sugar. The consistency is like a cross between a mango smoothie and a milk shake. I use canned mango pulp when mangoes aren’t available. Also, canned mango pulp doesn’t restrict this absolute awesomeness only in summer, when mangoes are available.
Reminds me of the summers when we were young and my... Garlic Knots
Garlic knots- A classic Italian pizzeria snack which is Crusty, light, Chewy in garlic-parsley infused butter-olive oil > One word: fantastic!
A big basket of garlic knots is a great party treat, make sure you make double quantity of what you planned.. You’ll find everyone reaching for another without thinking
Most garlic knots I remember are made with old pizza dough that was already fermenting. But I prefer and make them fresh from scratch.... Vella Kozhukattai
