Homemade Tawa Kulcha Kulcha is a popular Indian leavened flatbread from Amritsar, Punjab but is quite easy to find in any restaurant all over the country. It is typically cooked in a clay tandoor oven but it is not so difficult to make soft kulcha on tawa (on stovetop) at home. Difference between Kulcha and Naan Kulcha and Naan are both leavened flat breads made with all-purpose flour/maida, mostly similar except for the shape and the use of leavening agents....

Every holiday meal needs some fabulous drink recipes to complement the food. When I’m entertaining in the fall and winter, I turn to recipes such as slow cooker apple cider, lime sherbet punch, Grinch punch and this beautiful and delicious Thanksgiving punch. We always spend so much time preparing Thanksgiving recipes like smoked turkey, sweet potato casserole with marshmallows, homemade dinner rolls and Southern cornbread dressing. But what about the beverages?...

When I have leftover turkey on hand after the holidays, I use it to create delicious dishes including turkey noodle soup, hearty turkey casserole and this fresh and colorful turkey vegetable soup.

I love to repurpose my turkey into a hearty and delicious turkey vegetable soup. The great thing about this recipe is that it’s easily customizable, which means you really can use whatever veggies you happen to have on hand, and still end up with a great meal....

If you can believe it, this is my first ever cheesecake. Sure, I shared these blueberry cheesecake bars last year, but never before have I made a real cheesecake. Of course, this one’s not traditional either, but then isn’t that what you’ve come to expect from me by now? Putting my own little twist on a classic is kind of what I do… Even though I second guess myself every step of the way....

Carrying on with our simple summer cooking, we’ve got a perfect bowl of Cacio e Pepe. Normally, I wouldn’t get overly excited about a recipe such as Cacio e Pepe. It’s so, so delicious, but a very simple recipe. I usually share dishes with a few more ingredients. But while I was in LA I had a plate of Cacio e Pepe that reminded me just how good the simple Italian pasta can be....

These curry noodles couldn’t be easier, AND they ended up being one of my favorite recipes of the week! I’ve been wanting to make Thai red curry noodles for a while but held off until I had just the right idea. I wanted mine to be simple…but just a touch different too! I was inspired by the Thai basil plants growing in the pantry and my brother’s trip to Thailand....

I love almond roca, but I have to say, I think it’s even better in cookie form! That combination of toffee, chocolate and nuts just can’t be beat. It’s one of my favorite dessert recipes for the holidays along with peanut butter blossoms, snowball cookies and chewy molasses cookies. One of my favorite holiday traditions is the cookie baking party I hold at my house every year. My friends and I get together and bake large batches of treats to deliver to friends and family....

I love Samosa and I don’t think I could even put it in words, how much I love a good Aloo Samosa. I generally don’t like deep frying anything and I am not very fond of eating such stuff either. If there is one exception, that has got to be Samosa. I have very fond memories of packets of Samosa that dad used to bring home, from his visits to the market....

I don’t know if pizza fits into your “Healthy January” eats, but it surely fits into mine. Don’t you see all those greens? And those veggies underneath the greens, and those fresh herbs, and that lemon? This is a true salad pizza, and honestly, it’s the type of pizza of my dreams. I’ve been craving pizza the last few weeks, and I could not love this one more. It’s everything I could ever want from a pizza....

Happy Monday everyone! I’m finally back home from Alaska and settling back into life with internet again. As some of you probably noticed we were not able to get the usual Sunday Favorites post up yesterday. I had almost no internet our entire Alaska trip. So…expect a big Sunday post this week to make up for the absence. I’m really excited to share all the photos and details with you guys....

Tender baby corn is coated in corn flour & all purpose flour along with the spices, deep-fried until golden brown and is then tossed in a very flavorful Manchurian sauce.

If Christmas had a cocktail it would be this White Russian. It’s got a touch of sweetness, just the right amount of creaminess, and, of course, a good kick to it too. This one didn’t come to me on my own however. It’s actually a drink made with Red’s girlfriend, Hailey, in mind. She sent me a photo of a drink she’d order in Mexico a few months ago. It looked and sounded like a White Russian, but with twist....

When it comes to holiday breakfasts, I am very specific. Christmas is without a doubt cinnamon rolls – usually on Christmas Eve morning, and if there’s any leftover, they’re snacked on throughout day. Christmas morning is my mom’s Monkey Bread (an oldie but goodie!). In more recent years, we’ve been doing bacon and eggs too (I need a good savory casserole to make). And for Thanksgiving? Well, that’s my wild card....
