Carrot Cake

Its October and i can see that people are all set for the October feast out here in Germany. Back in India its time for Durga puja (Dusshera, Navratri). When i was a kid i would wait the whole year for this festival, Its a full on 4 days of energy pack festival in India. In west Bengal Durga pooja is celebrated with all pomp and show, you will be amazed with the number of pandals and the different styled Idol of Goddess Durga. Its time when the city of Kolkata is on the light show.
I have planned to visit the Pandal here in Stuttgart and pay my respect to the Devi Durga.

Methi Aloo stir fry

Methi aloo is what i call a sober side dish in the Indian Thali. The outcome of incorporating the fresh Fenugreek leaves with potatoes is wonderful. This easy dish can be prepared in just minutes.
This is my mums favorite stir fry and this recipe has been shared to be my mummy.
Its perfect for those days when you wish to have something light and less spicy.
Do you know that after fast its good to break it with little green leafy vegetables. Back home vegetarians consume so many different types of Leafy vegetables. Most popular are spinach(Palak saag), methi saag, lal saag, bathua saag, pui saag, amarnath saag and the list continues. My state special saag(green leaf) are Konark saag, kalmi saag and chana saag. Yes in India we have n number of vegetables and grains which i miss so much at times.
Anyways coming back to the methi saag, which is favorite of so many people, here is my mums special saag recipe.

Apple Cake

First time i came to Germany, i tried the apple cake. I was so impressed by this dish that i often enjoy it at my favorite bakery. But this time i decided to prepare one by myself. I find this recipe extremely easy and tasty. Would love to share it with you all.
My son with his rapidly developing taste buds is showing a lot of interest with cakes. It took him seconds to finish this cake.

Baked whole chicken

After long time i was craving for the baked chicken. Its kinda cold at my place and continuously drizzling since 3 days. I felt like having some crispy soft chicken at this time. So i baked a chicken by incorporating both deshi and videshi ingredients. The outcome was fantastic. My husband and son enjoyed it. I am sure you will enjoy this recipe as well.

Banana Blossom and potato curry

Banana Blossom's curry are one of my favorites. My mother often prepared it fresh by plucking the fresh Blossom from the banana plant. Apart from the blossom the stem is also used in preparation of curry. Its little tedious cleaning the flowers from the blossom but its worthwhile as the curry has incredible taste.
Banana plant is the one whose every part is brought into use while cooking is done. Right from the stem, blossom. raw banana, raw banana's skin and the ripen banana. The leaves of banana tree finds a very important place as its leaves are used as plates. Yes dishes are served on the fresh cleaned banana leaves. I love this environment friendly idea of serving food. The food tastes even more tasty when its served on the leaves.
