Keema Masoor Pulao (Rice with Meat & Lentils)

A wholesome dish of rice, meat, and lentils, Keema Masoor Pulao is a hearty meal you can prepare with your everyday ingredients. This is simple but I wouldn’t promise it’s quick especially if this is your first time. But then, nothing as rich and delicious […]

Instant Pot Mutton Biryani

Instant Pot Mutton Biryani

An instant pot biryani has been pending for long on my ‘To Cook’ list. After years of cooking biryani the prolonged, conventional way – cook the meat and rice separately, then layer the rice on the meat. So I couldn’t get my head around making […]

Chicken Cheese Dinner Rolls

Chicken Cheese Dinner Rolls

Baked stuffed puff pastries and dinner rolls are a treat and a healthy alternative to fried ones like egg rolls, spring rolls, and samosas. I’m not an eager baker so I was looking for an easy dinner roll recipe that didn’t have any baking science. […]

Chicken Kathi Roll

Chicken Kathi Roll

Kathi roll is one of the Indian street foods I really miss, especially when I remember my good old time in Bangalore. Kathi Rolls are commonly knows as frankie. Chicken kathi roll is the perfect ‘to-go’ food and a certain crowd pleaser during Ramadan. It […]

Gosht Lababdar / Mutton Lababdar

Dhaka Chicken

Dhaka Chicken

Given the name, I’m assuming Dhaka Chicken is a popular dish in Bangladesh. It’s that time of the year – Ramadan/ Ramzan – when I’m constantly looking for appetizer recipes for Iftar especially with boneless chicken since it cooks quickly. I tried Dhaka Chicken for […]

Curry Leaf Mutton Curry (Curry Patta Gosht)

Curry Leaf Mutton Curry (Curry Patta Gosht)

Curry Patta Gosht gives me the South Indian vibes. Perhaps because curry leaves are native to South India and a staple ingredient in almost every dish. You can try this recipe with chicken as well or give it a vegetarian spin with paneer. I’ve cooked […]
