I’m back after another break and this time it’s with Panzanella – Bread & Tomato Salad. The monsoons should be on their way out. It’s just been raining and raining without a break. A bad cold, cough and fever kept me down the past two weeks. A couple of doctor visits, medicines, rest, and lots…
Simple salads really do not need recipes. That’s really the case with this Guava & Sweet Corn Salad. However, this is a salad I like very much and thought I should share it. I love guavas, both white and red. For some reason, we don’t get very good red guavas here. We do get very…
The monsoons are here, and it’s been raining like crazy especially along the west coast of India. Cities have been getting flooded as there is no little respite from the heavy rain.

Summer’s here and so are mangoes. A Mango Ice-cream has been on my mind for a while. Unfortunately, an ice-cream was out of question as my husband and I are eating vegan for a couple of months. It’s just a temporary thing and we will back to eating milk and dairy soon. So then the…
I have found that there are two kinds of people when it comes to cabbage. The first sort are those who cannot see anything good in it. The other kind, like me, quite enjoy cabbage provided it is treated well. I’ve even made a Payasam/ Kheer with cabbage that’s so good. That said, my love…
I have been on an ice-cream/ gelato making spree of sorts. You can blame it on the hot, hot summer. Thankfully, this summer is over and the monsoons are here. However, I have a variety of my summer time ice-creams/ gelato to share with you all. Today it’s Vegan Coconut Gelato. I’m from Kerala and…
