As a food blogger, I am inclined to experiment with new recipes now and then, especially around the festive season. But this time, I did not wish to craft the usual sweets. I am always on the lookout for unconventional recipes that are a bit guilt-free. 😇 Before you unceremoniously term me as a health…

My kitchen disasters XIV – the overcooked bucatini
I pride myself in not doing unholy deeds to the pasta I am cooking. But the Covid era brought a demon inside me and that demon led me to cook pasta in the most dreaded way 🙈🤣. I had never heard of bucatini before 2020 but when the over shopping for pasta began, I could…
My kitchen disasters XIII – the overcooked spaghetti arrabiata
Those of us who survived the Covid era have many stories to tell. Fortunately or unfortunately, my Covid era kitchen disasters are still not ending. 🤓 Back in 2020, while still exploring the different shapes and sauces of pasta, and the aesthetics of plating this dish, I decided to craft a unique presentation style of…
My Kitchen Miracles VII – the tedious mutton keema
Covid was in full swing and it was recently proven that the Covid virus only spread through air. This piece of news meant that we could have non-vegetarian food again without the fear of getting the virus. It ain’t swine-flu but still deadly. So I decided to try my hand at non-vegetarian food although I…
My kitchen disasters XII – how not to use guacamole
The perfect avocado never exists! And if they do, they are ripened in an artificial manner. Because the perfectly ripened avocado only exists in the time when you are not bothered about it! Or when you are in a parallel universe! 🤓 Come Covid-19, (Yes, we are still in that cooking disaster era) people were…
My kitchen miracles V – the comforting moong dal matar cheela (Mung lentil peas pancakes)
Nope, no Covid-era adventures (or misadventures today) Because me being me, I will keep having culinary adventures now and then. And living alone brings pretty playful disasters or even miracles! When you accidentally discover a dish because you were too lazy or too embroiled in office-work to cook a curry based dish that you anyway…
My kitchen Miracles IV – The perfect millet cheelas
I will not give a disclaimer that Covid-era cooking adventures continue today as well. And before people start thinking that this girl is always cooking disasters, today I’m bringing my first success story in relation to cooking millets. As Magneto remarks in X-Men: First Class, “Failure was never an option”. I have taken this statement…
My kitchen disasters XI – fishy business
My weekly ritual of writing about my Covid-era disasters continues this week as well. At the end of this episode, I was about to tear my long hair from my head and the duo ofmy mother-sister was laughing hysterically! I love chicken, fish, cottage cheese and tofu fillet, especially when they are grilled to perfection…
My kitchen disaster X – cooking millets for the first time
Ratatouille really inspired me with the quote that “Anyone can cook!” And I took this quote seriously during Covid work-from-home era. Yes, we are still sticking with covid-era culinary adventures. They are not ending soon! That era was characterised by those dreaded Kadhas (never drank the medically unproven shams), heat-providing dishes, virus-destroying ingredients such as…
My kitchen disasters IX – the baguette chronicles
I’m still not over with the Covid-time disasters that happened in the world and in my kitchen. There is one thing called as exploring the recipes and cuisines. But over-enthusiasm to explore without fully studying the cuisines may result in man-made disasters. Or gluttonyguilts-made disasters! The idea of France always produces some different level of…
