Carrot Clementine Jam

Kiran — Fri, 24 May 2013 13:30:24 +0000

Sometimes, change is good.

Other times, it’s a pain to catch up on ever-changing “trends”. For example, watermark on images. Which is extremely important to protect the copyright of our images.

But blogging sometimes demands a lot more from us. Like the trend these days is to incorporate title of the recipe onto the images itself, using creative fonts.

Methi Malai Chicken

It took me a long time to ponder about doing a blog post today. I asked myself questions like, “should I potentially risk offending anyone who was directly impacted by the devastation in Oklahoma?”…

“Should I hit the ‘publish’ button?”

It’s hard to imagine how a tornado can cause massive devastation. All livelihood and belongings, banished instantaneously.

Hi friends!

If you are following us on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram, you’ll find me and the rest of Food Blog Forum attendees posting our nails off at this year’s Food Blog Forum event all weekend long, from Walt Disney World!

To give you an idea about this awesome food blogging conference, here’s a recap from last year’s shenanigans.

I can’t wait to meet my blogging friends (blends!) and make new friends as well. There’s nothing like putting names to faces, especially with friends that I’ve bonded for so long via social media.

Squeal!!

Stir-fry Amaranth Greens with Roasted Garlic

Kiran — Tue, 14 May 2013 13:30:16 +0000

What happened back then when a dash of this or a sprinkling of that made life simpler in the kitchen? Frankly, many recipe requires prep that includes measurements, a long list of ingredients etc. — which can be pretty daunting to those taking their first steps in the kitchen.

Well, this recipe is definitely easy for any beginners and for those who are yet to try roasting garlic. It changed my life. Literally.

I’m here to prove that at least some part of a simple recipe wouldn’t require all the kitchenalia’s that I’ve acquired a few years now.

It’s almost a hazard, I tell ya.

Chocolate Avocado Mousse Tart

There are times I’m unsure where and how I get the ideas for recipe testing. But the uncertainty is definitely not a deterrent when I decided that this recipe is going to top my list of all time favorite, for three very important reasons:

1- It turned out so good at first try!! I’m already giddy with excitement!!!

2- I FREAKING LOVE BAKING WITH AVOCADOS!!!

3- I have more faith on my baking skills!!! (hopefully, I don’t jinx it all)

With the amount of exclamation points, need I say more?

Bread Poha

Kiran — Tue, 07 May 2013 13:45:15 +0000

Hello!

I have quite an interesting recipe for you today. And it involves slices of bread. Allow me to warn you that it has nothing to do with sandwiches, french toast, bread pudding, crumbs etc.

Nada.

It’s a savory recipe that I’m obsessed with ever since my sister-in-law taught me how to cook it while visiting India a few months ago.
