I love a good chicken curry, and this Curry Leaf and Black Pepper Chicken Curry recipe is no exception! I’ve taken inspiration from some of the delicious foods I tasted while visiting Kerala, India; using a pretty common flavor profile for that area. Although it’s a bit similar to my Coconut and Cardamom Chicken Curry […]

Coconut and Cardamom Chicken Curry
Last week Piyush and I celebrated our fourth wedding anniversary. He had to work for the day so I decided to make him a delicious meal before picking him up from the office and whisking him away to watch The Great Gatsby. Before I get into all the details of the curry, I’ve got to […]

“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, […]
Chicken Chapli Kabab: Pakistani Style
We, Americans, eat a lot of burgers. Hamburgers, turkey burgers, veggie burgers…they’re all an important part of our culture. We love pretty much anything if it’s formed into a patty, placed on a bun, and slathered with toppings. …and who can blame us? Burgers are good! We also love kababs. Meat, veggies, fruit–it doesn’t […]
Home-Style Chicken Masala (Indian-Spiced Chicken Stew)
It’s no secret that I love Indian food. Love may even be an understatement. Truthfully, I am obsessed with the cuisine! Sure, I enjoy the typical restaurant fare: chicken tikka masala, saag paneer, and even heaps of naan slathered with ghee (clarified butter). Yes, I admitted it. I love ghee. But, that’s not the point…(**quickly […]

Pan Fried Chicken Breast with Rustic Herb Tomato Sauce
I’ve been super busy the past few days. I’m planning a baby-shower for my friend–Summer–for this Saturday, so I’ve been menu planning, shopping and crafting. I’ve also been occupied with my little gardens–which are finally almost completed! It was super-sunny outside, but I tried to click a few photos… I decided to plant my tomatoes […]
Easy Chicken Biryani with Cucumber, Carrot and Mint Raita
I absolutely love Indian biryani. It’s such a beautiful and comforting dish that is reminiscent of the rice hot-dishes (or casseroles…for all you non-Minnesotans out there) that I grew up eating as a kid–only a million times better! (sorry, Mom!). Biryani is simply basmati rice cooked with spices and meats (and/or vegetables). There are […]
