I am going to spare you all from my rants about how hard the life gets ( at times), as I am here today to share some thing else with you. And this is a non food related stuff ! I attend almost all the events organized in Mumbai, by my favorite group Indiblogger, since I enjoy meeting the ever enthusiastic, lively people…

May 1, 2013 - By Alka Keswani

Summer time again! Time to live on juices, citrus fruits and watermelons! Time to indulge in icecreams and sherbet, to ditch that spicy oily food and relish instead, some khichdee, simple subzis and loads of curds or yogurt. When it becomes unbearable to work in kitchen for hours, simple quick fix meals come to my rescue. Stuffed parathas, Dalbaath, Khichdee, dal chaawal, onepot pulav, mixed vegetable rice etc are the preferred choice of meals at my home, during summers. And one thing that is mandatory with all these dishes, is curd/yogurt in its various avatars like, plain curd, lassi, chaach…

Kirng Upma|Thick savory porridge using Samo seeds rice

April 3, 2013 - By Alka Keswani

Kirng or Samo seeds rice is often used in India to cook ‘fasting foods. Also known as Bhagar or Moraia , Samo seeds are a kind of wild rice (seeds), hence named as ‘Jungle rice’. Botanically known as Echinochloa colona, it is actually a weed growing in rice fields. Samo is widely used in India, to prepare rice, sweet porridge and Upma. The samo flour is also used to make unleavened flat breads and is generally consumed during fast, when one needs to avoid grains like rice and wheat. I cooked it as a regular upma, replacing semolina with samo…

Semolina Pudding Using STAR Ghee|Product Review

March 27, 2013 - By Alka Keswani

Ghee, the clarified butter, a controversial ingredient in Indian kitchens, is often criticized by weight watchers and figure conscious people due to the calories it impart. But it’s hard to ignore the medicinal and healing qualities of pure ghee. The debate could go on, discussing the pros and cons of using Ghee, but then, I prefer using white butter and ghee for slathering the parathas, for my kid, as children would gain health benefits too, along with calories. Cow ghee is hands down winner when compared to buffalo ghee, in terms of texture, colour, fat content, and healing properties. So…

Vegetable Pulao With Star Saver Tibar Basmati Rice|Product Review

March 21, 2013 - By Alka Keswani

Few days back, Sabina of Edelman India Private Limited, approached me to know, if I would be interested in reviewing their client StarBazaar’s products. Star Bazaar is one of India’s leading hyper market chains and is a part of one of the most reliable group, The Tata ! And since I visit Starbazaar’s outlet frequently, I was curious to know about their launch of exclusive private label products, ranging from Basmati rice, cow ghee, Jam, to cornflakes, tea, tomato ketchup etc. I was particularly interested to try out their Basmati rice and cow ghee. I often feel disappointed with the quality…

March 19, 2013 - By Alka Keswani

Sindhi Saibhaji With Spinach and Amaranth Leaves Sindhi style spinach dish, known as saibhaji (sai=green) is one of the most popular dish amongst Sindhis and non-sindhis as well. Saibhaji generally consisits of Spinach, sorrel leaves, dill leaves, fenugreek leaves and some assorted vegetables along with handful of soaked Bengal gram. All of us are aware of the health quotient of spinach but the Amaranth leaves are less popular, though highly nutritious. This simple ‘green dish’ is loaded with vitamin A, calcium, Niacin, Iron etc. Talking about Amaranth leaves, well, these are one of the best sources of calcium, and must…

Bhelpuri With Salad|A Not So Sindhi Chaat Recipe

January 23, 2013 - By Alka Keswani

Bhelpuri~ One of the most popular chaat/ street food! Indians need no introduction for this quick to whip up, tangy mixture of puffed rice, boiled potatoes, chopped onion, farsan (crispy or crunchy, mixed fried munchies) mint and coriander chutney (dip), sweet tamarind/sonth chutney topped up with some crunchy sev (thin, fried, salted gram flour noodle strings). I sometimes wonder if its just Sindhis, who have a strong affinity for chaats or does it apply to all the communities of India? I doubt whether anyone can resist any type of lip smacking chaat, be it Panipuri, Sevpuri, Dahi puri, Raga patties…
