I tried this recipe this evening and liked it very much. The lemon and artichokes make a wonderful combination. And this dish couldn't be easier. Kudos to my friend Elisa for sharing it.

Sago /Sabudhana Murukku (a tasty savory snack prepared with sago, rice flour, besan flour and fried gram flour) was chosen by Srivalli for Indian Cooking Challenge for the month of March. As Sri already challenged us to prepare murukku before, this was a little easy, though I have never prepared murukku with sago before. Stated below is the recipe by Srivalli. Ingredients Rice flour: 2 cups Besan flour: 1/2 cup Fried gram flour: 1/2 cup Sago: 1/2 cup Oil: 50 gms Salt to taste Curd: 50 gms (half of half cup) Chilli powder: 1/2 tsp or as per taste Oil for frying murukku Special Utensil: Muruku Achu Method Soak sago in buttermilk for 3 hrs (please ensure that you soak the sago well or else sago may burst while frying the murukkus).

Heat oil in a kadhai for deep frying. Add the dough in the muruku achu. When the...

Perhaps because it's rainy and cold outside at the moment, I'm thinking of things summery and light. I like to serve this gelatin mold with fresh fruit such as grapes, strawberries, or apricots in the center. 2 envelopes unflavored gelatin 1/2 cup sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 cups apricot nectar (I usually just puree bottled apricots w/ juice) 3/4 cup water 1 cup white grape juice or lemonade 1 cup sour cream Mix gelatin, sugar, and salt in saucepan. Stir in apricot nectar and water. Cook over low hear until gelatin is completely dissolved. Then stir in juice and sour cream. Make sure sour cream is blended in completely. Then pour into mold.

A few weeks ago, some neighbors invited me and other friends to their home for a barbecue. We had grilled chicken, potatoes, etc. The food was good and the evening was very relaxing, but one of the things I wanted to share from this event was that we had s'mores. Of course, I've had s'mores before, but there were a few things about THESE s'mores that are worth mentioning. First of all, my friends cooked the s'mores in a way I'd never seen before. They created foil packets with the s'more ingredients assembled inside and then put the packets in the coals to cook. The second thing worth noting is that in addition to graham crackers, chocolate, and marshmallow, my friends included other ingredients such as sliced strawberries or bananas, pieces of Skor bars, or peanut butter in some of the packets. And using a Sharpie, they wrote on the foil what kind of s'more was inside each packet. That way, people could pick what kind of s'more they wanted after the...

Another case of plagiarism. As these days, I am not very regular in posting and also cannot check the site regularly. But surely this is not the post I intended to write about. Just today, I happen to update some posts, found a comment left by an anonymous visitor that my post on Calcutta Chicken Roll has been copied in a Pakistani recipe site, pakistanifoodrecipes.com launched on Monday, June 22, 2009. My post on Calcutta Chicken Roll (post on Mar 8 2009), has been copied verbatim in the site with the post name as Calcutta Kati Roll ? Kolkata Chicken Roll Even the picture has been copied. Though they have carefully erased the mark on the picture, one can still understand that it?s my picture. My site name has been written but no credit / linking has been provided. After some more browsing, I found 2 more of my posts have been copied: Honey, Lime and Mint Iced Tea as Honey Lime Mint Iced Tea Stuffed Dahi Wada , copied as Stuffed bread dahi baray The picture of Stuffed Dahi Was ev...
