Peas Masala is a yummy side dish that goes well with roti and pulao varieties like Jeera Rice or any mild pulao.. Mostly when I run out of vegetables I make this dish, as frozen peas is one vegetable that is always available in my kitchen.

This cabbage deli wrap is a simplified Indian version with roti/chapathi and a cabbage/peas filling. It is a perfect finger food for “on the go” lunch. You can make the rotis & filling in advance and bring them together easily while serving or packing.

Kovakkai or Tindora fry is a simple fry that goes well with rice or chapathi. It can be made in a jiffy with the ingredients usually available in your pantry. I normally pair it up with rasam/sambar for rice or for chapathi along with dal.

Jeera Rice or Jeera Pulao is a flavourful & delicious rice variety. Honestly, this is no big deal a recipe to blog… But a friend of mine wanted me to post this. So this is especially for my friend “S” 🙂

Now to the recipe.

This creamy white sauce is so easy and takes just 15 mins to make. The moment I think of this white sauce the first dish that comes to my mind is Pasta. I love to have Pasta in white sauce (Recipe coming soon) Click HERE for recipe.. You can use it to make pasta or as a dip to dunk in some french fries or tortillas. Am sure it will be a hit among kids.

Methi Roti or Methi Thepla is a simple & nutritious flat bread made with wheat flour & methi leaves (fenugreek leaves or vendhaya keerai) . It stays softer for a long time making it an ideal lunch box item. It does not require any side dish as such. It can be had with pickle or a simple raita.

Winter has started and its getting colder and colder these days. What would you crave for, on a day like this? Hot Pakodas and a cup of coffee? I would love to have this combo !! Cabbage Pakoda is an all time favourite in my family. It is a crispy pakoda which am sure your kids would definitely ask for more. Even kids who are fussy about eating vegetables would like to eat it in this form.

Dal is a staple food in most Indian homes. Dal Fry is usually prepared with toor dal. Chotu & myself are big fans of this Dal Fry. We can  live with this simple Dal Fry for days together, along with steamed rice and a sabji. It is perfect for a lazy day, yet a complete & satisfying meal. This Dal Fry is so easy that even Bachelors can make it in a jiffy..

Adai is a wholesome breakfast/dinner recipe. Unlike dosa u dont have to wait until the batter is fermented. u can use it right away after grinding. This protein packed adai goes well with jaggery & ghee, coconut chutney, dosa podi or aviyal. My favourite combo is jaggery and ghee 🙂

Puzhi Kuzhambu is one traditional recipe that we make quite often at home. It goes well with steamed rice and some kootu variety.  For some reasons it tastes best the next day. This stores well outside for 2-3 days and for a week if refrigerated.
