I realize Christmas has come and gone, and I also realize (as of today!) King’s Hawaiian has had my recipe for Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies with Macadamia Nuts and Holiday Sprinkles posted on their blog for well over a week now, yet I haven’t blogged about it. I wanted to share the recipe with you all, […]

Easy Indian Spiced Shrimp with Garlic and Cilantro Yogurt Sauce
I hope everyone had a safe and wonderful time celebrating the New Year! 2012 was a pretty good year for Piyush and I; and I’m so excited to see what 2013 has in store for us! I’m also stoked (yes, I said “stoked!”) about what’s in store for My Fancy Pantry in 2013! Thank you […]
Chicken Sausage, Pesto and Gruyere Croissant Rolls…and a Giveaway!
Giveaway is now over! Sadly, I didn’t get a response from Emily R. before the Jan. 2 deadline, so I have to pick a new winner. Emily, if you read this…send me a message! I can’t send you the sausages, but I’d love to send you a little something else! New winner: Congratulations to commenter […]
“Saucy” Asian Inspired Turkey Meatballs
First, my apologies for not blogging as much as usual. I recently had a surgery–don’t worry, nothing real serious–and to be completely honest, I just haven’t had much energy. Instead of cooking and baking, I’ve been laying around watching absolutely too much television. Too much Lifetime television–with my friend, Megan–to be precise. Haha… but yeah, […]
Pear, Honey and Blue Cheese Appetizer Toasts
Sometimes I crave blue cheese. Seriously. It’s all I want, and I can’t be happy until I have a taste. This particular day I purchased an amazing local blue goat cheese. As soon as I saw it, nothing else would suffice. Blue goat cheese? Yes, please!
Masala Bread Upma: Indian Comfort Food
As the seasons begin to change and the leaves fall from the trees, I am no longer happy with simple sandwiches or cold cereals at breakfast-time. Instead, I find myself craving warm and satisfying meals. I want comfort food…and this Masala Bread Upma is just that. I created this dish using King’s Hawaiian Sweet Rolls; and […]
Roasted Pumpkin, Sausage and Sage Risotto with Gruyere
I’ve been a little preoccupied lately. I have no excuses, and can’t even give a good reason why my blog hasn’t been regularly updated. After all, I have been cooking. I guess I just needed a break. Now that the weather is changing, my yard has been (partially) cleaned up, and there’s a slight chill […]

Mushroom, Pea and Fenugreek Korma (Khumb, Matar and Methi Korma)
I love mushrooms and would have no trouble eating them everyday. They’re a great substitute for meat, a wonderful “filler” for all sorts of vegetarian recipes, but mushrooms are especially good if they’re drenched in a smooth, fragrant, spiced masala. That brings me to my newest “creation”: Mushroom, Pea and Fenugreek Korma. In Hindi it […]
Indian Inspired Mussel Pilaf
I’m not a huge fan of seafood, but the other night while I was paging through one of my cookbooks (Gordon Ramsay’s Great Escape: India) I noticed a beautiful photo of a whole sea bass cooked in banana leaves. I haven’t been able to get it out of my mind since. It’s pretty much embedded. I’ve […]
