Moong Dal & Brown Rice Idly

Moong Dal & Brown Rice Idly is a perfect breakfast idea which is super healthy and delicious! I love idlis, Actually I love all steamed food but I really love idlis.

I am not saying sambhar and chutney won't do, they work as well too. As a result of liking idlis so much and making them so often, I am always on the lookout of finding more … [Read more...]

Pizzas should be ordered in and had at home chilling on the couch on the evenings that one doesn't want to cook, on the evenings that one doesn't want to go out either. So that is how The Pizzeria came into the picture. But there … [Read more...]

This has been the favorite rose wine among the Indian ones at home off late and I was super happy to be welcomed with this. The Rosa Rossa was paired with salmon, capers and cream cheese canapes. The acidity of the wine cut the slight saltiness of the salmon and the sourness of the capers very well and in the end the flavours worked so … [Read more...]
