Rice is one of those go to dishes whenever one is in a hurry to prepare a meal. I think it is a staple in most households. The thing I like most about rice is that it’s very versatile and you can cook it in almost any way imaginable. To avoid cooking it in the […]

Foodie Pen pals: March
Hey foodies, I have definitely missed blogging and I’m sure some of you were wondering where I had disappeared to, well worry no more, I’m back. I have been busy with school and end of semester exams, so my cooking has been on the minimum. For the times I cook, I’m always in a rush […]
Wholemeal Banana Cupcakes
By now some of you might have noticed that I really love ripe bananas and I like using them in my cooking. I think there are very versatile fruits, you can eat them as is, blend them with milk or yoghurt to make smoothies, bake them in cakes or muffins or even mix them in […]
Black Forest Cake
If you like my page on facebook or follow me on twitter you must have seen my previous complaints about my black forest cake backfiring. It got so bad that I decided not to try again. I resulted in getting my brother to bake the cake then I do the frosting. This past weekend we […]
Homemade Chocolate
Who doesn’t love chocolate? You there, put your hand down. Anyway, this is a recipe I found on you tube and I thought it would come in handy especially for guys who love baking with chocolate. You can also eat the chocolate. The recipe is pretty easy and takes a short while to do well […]
Butterless Butter Chicken
Last year during hubby’s birthday, we went out for lunch at an Indian restaurant, Mughals, at Adams Arcade. I had some butter chicken, which in my opinion is by far the best boneless chicken curry I’ve ever eaten. After that I embarked on looking for the recipe but most of what I got seemed too complicated […]

Foodie Pen pals plus more
Hey food lovers, Well today’s post  doesn’t have a recipe…I apologise but not to worry it’s something exciting that involves making friends and of course food :-). I believe you have seen my previous post on this but allow me to repeat it. My fellow foodie blogger Cici thought of implementing this brilliant idea of having […]
Gram Flour Fish Fingers
I bought some gram flour a while back so that I could prepare some bhajias. Since then, I haven’t cooked bhajias again and I feared my flour would go to waste. I started brainstorming on other ways I could use the flour. Since, I love making fish fingers and I always coat them with flour, […]
Potato Bhajias
I have received several requests on my Facebook page to post a recipe on how to make bhajias. I have to say I’m no expert in this area but I think I can share a tip or two. Ingredients: Potatoes, peeled, washed and sliced thinly 1 cup gram flour 3/4 cup water 2 tbsp dried […]
