All through the lockdown period eggs were easily available in Kolkata. Needless to say, I have used eggs very often in the kitchen. The eggs are very easy to use while making a curry for lunch or dinner and also a very good breakfast option in different forms. I have used eggs while making dessert…
Crab Biryani | Crab Dum Biryani | Nandu Biryani
“Mommy, I want Crab Biryani! Mommy, I want to go to sea!” My five-years-old was demanding two things which are completely unrelated yet related! I though found both the demands good and on time as well! We didn’t have Crab Biryani since long and neither we opted for a trip in the recent months. This,…

Avial Recipe and how it was related to Bhim, the 2nd Pandabh!
A simple, comforting vegetarian dish, in fact, a dish that contains all the easily available vegetable (well, in India), Avial or Aviyal is what intrigued me from last few days. Not that, I was not aware what Avial is or how it tastes. I have been to Kerala more than 4 times and till last…
Mutton Ghee Roast | Mangalorean delicacy, Mutton Ghee Roast
Hectic outstation trips, and then returning to the hotel in the evening! Sounds similar I guess (especially to those who opt for the trips often) but believe me those trips are not that bad. Especially when the days ended with the local delicacy. Wherever I have worked, trips are always been part of my responsibility….
South Indian Prawn Curry and a review of Dabur Hommade Products!
One question people often ask me, how I manage my life and divide the time between family, work, and the blog. Even, I was asked whether I give enough time to the family or how I manage to blog when my work indeed is a demanding one. I don’t answer whenever I felt a little…

What happened when one had some Squid curry in Chennai and ended on remembering the Malabar version of the same! Well, I don’t know about others but I ended on making the Malabar Squid Curry or Nadan Koonthal Curry upon returning from my official Chennai trip. It’s not that what I had in Chennai was…
Tell-a-tale of South Indian Filter Coffee! for the love of Filter Kaapi…
It was a lethargic evening and I was having a cup of Soth Indian Filter Coffee that I made for myself. Pasta came to me and snuggled and asked for a sip of the coffee. I have given it to her knowing how much she loves the taste of South Indian Filter Coffee. Then only…

It is a Sunday today and we are trying to cope with the tremendous summer heat in Kolkata. I finally have canceled the planned trip of today to India Restaurant and which means no Biriyani for me and no biriyani for Pasta as well. However, coming to today and to be specific to lunch I…
