To begin with, this had been a hell of crazy month so far, for me…..with too many commitments and too many changes in my otherwise routine life.So much that I almost thought of winding up things and going in some solitude.The hustle bustle of life gets too hectic for a person like me who loves to be in her own small but comforting world.I hate being dragged in different directions and I simply loathe myself for being unable to utter NO to anybody.Though there were some amazingly pleasant surprises too ,but those too came with a Whiff of sadness .No…

Of late, I have been crazily participating in almost every food event held in blogosphere.It’s very hard for me to resist any event and the moment some event is announced, my mind gets restless thinking about what could be my possible entry for that.The big challenge for me, obviously is that the particular recipe should be fit for the event and should be a part of Sindhi cuisine too, to justify my blog name So when Archana of Archana’s kitchen announced Monthly One dish meal event I kept scratching my head too long to come out with some idea.And after…

An infusion of the seeds can be drunk to cure chills and headaches “ Yet this humble vegetable is neglected and people consider it as a vegetable for elder generation or have a notion that this vegetable is eaten…

Half of the visitors arriving here would run away, for sure, after reading the name of this post…..Coz; that’s a normal reaction I expect from people who just can’t stand the bitterness of karela (bittergourd). But this post is for those other half, who will stay and would actually read the recipe…Kudos for them(bravo !). This is the simplest, basic recipe for making bittergourds and a bit of modification, like adding sliced potatoes, would actually save you from making additional dish for those fussy eaters who refuse to even have a look at these” bitter wonders”. They can enjoy potatoes…

Methi or fenugreek leaves, is one of my personal favourite and I always like to relish it with some really hot khichdi, or plain rice.Though bitter, Ilike the flavour it imparts to any dish, be it methi patata (potatoes) or methi paneer (cottage cheese).Even the dried methi leaves called kasuri methi holds a special position in my kitchen, since I use it in all various curries and gravy based preparations Here is a simple recipe to convince fussy eaters ,who throw tantrums when served green veggies, since it is made along with potatoes .And I am yet to come across…
