My Kitchen Miracles – IX – the uselessness of cooking beetroot halwa
We will again go through the pages of Circa 2020 A.D. when food influenzas were exploring the most non-hackneyed edible dishes but they ended up crafting Maggie dosa. I had a weird urge in me to craft colourful dishes as they attract attention towards the post and push you to think from the end perspective…
My kitchen miracles – VIII – zucchini pizza bites
Although I’m not done about writing about my kitchen disasters, writing a miracle story helps the readers to know that this lady is not crazy and always creating unedible items. Circa 2020 (I know, again! 😉) I wanted to create some bite-sized snacks that were a bit healthier than the cookies, biscuits and savouries that…
My kitchen disasters XV – the weird amla chutney
During the modern plague-era a.k.a covid—era, there was a lot of stress on consuming Vitamin C the way we consume water. Apparently, immunity could be built in days or weeks and all the damage done by years of debauchery would magically vanish if you consume amla shots! So I also became a Vitamin C fanatic…

Sabotaged by the menu – part II
The combination pandemic age and alcohol has a tendency to bring forth a host of interesting stories. Nope, my Covid-era sagas are not ending so soon. So in 2021, when we got vaccinated after the deadly second wave and started coming out of our shells to experience our normal lives, my mother and sister hatched…
My kitchen disaster XV – the bajra besan laddoo
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…
Sabotaged by the menu – Part 3
This post is going to be a short one because I posted a heavy reel on my exploration of Ellora caves while remembering the history from my civil services preparation days, fact checking, editing the clips while deciding what to keep and what to remove and drinking copious amounts of water while recording the voiceover. …
Sabotaged by the menu – part 2
Yesterday, I posted a meme reel on how a McPuff never breaks cleanly. The reel got the average engagement that I am getting on Instagram currently. But a few school and college friends reached out. McDonald’s pizza Mc Puff was a novelty for us 90s kids when the parcel-type dishes were unheard of. Before wraps…
