Mango Pudding with Rusk
It’s an easy to make recipe that tastes like Heaven. During summer time, there are many varieties of great tasting mangoes available and we love to enjoy the fruit as well as different recipes from Mango. I tried a quick mango dessert and it tasted super yummy. A quicker version is also described under notes.
Make it on the previous day and the results are satisfying.
Turmeric, Ginger and Garlic Relish
Turmeric, ginger and garlic are considered superfoods and supposed to have multiple health benefits including remedy for digestion, inflammation and viral infections. This recipe of finely chopped ginger, garlic and turmeric seasoned with ghee/ butter and dry spices is not only good for health especially colds and flu but also extremely tasty (though a bit spicy) when taken as a relish or side dish. But then sometimes we need alternatives to spicy pickles.
lauki ka Raita
Lauki ka Raita is so good and incredibly easy to make; it takes less than 5 minutes! As the weather is getting warmer, this is a great way to cool down!
Roasted Tomato Crostini
This is a very elegant appetizer and perfect for serving to guests with some wine! It’s not too much work to make and relatively healthy as well, but looks and tastes amazing!
Paneer Afghani Tikka (Spicy Grilled Indian Cottage Cheese)
Paneer Tikka is a North Indian appetizer where chunks of paneer are marinated in yogurt and spices and then grilled in tandoor (Clay oven). This recipe is for Afghan Paneer Tikka and is from the kitchen of mughals, known for their culinary skills. Instead of a clay oven, I grilled paneer/ vegetables in a pan. Alternatively, an electric/ gas oven can be used.
Use fresh paneer and serve it hot with green chutney and lemon.
