Moroccan Spiced Grilled Drumsticks
Chicken drumsticks are a classic for summer grilling and this recipe for Moroccan spiced chicken is a keeper. It is quite easy to make and delivers big flavors. Serve it with roasted vegetables or salad for a simple but elegant dinner when you’re having friends over for a summer party or for game day fun!
Saffron Infused Aamras with Masala Corn Chips
Aamras is a flavored and sweetened pulp of mango fruit. It is usually savored alone as a dessert or accompaniment to poories or missi roti. Pooris and parathas are an occasional treat in my home, but some desserts are meant to be enjoyed with a savory pairing. Hence, I serve aamras in little bowls, garnished with chopped seasonal fruits and homemade masala chips. It gives us the same pleasure of sweet and salty combo that we are accustomed to.
Honey Lemon + Chili Roasted Squash
While simple roasted squash wedges with olive oil, salt, and pepper are delicious on their own, the addition of lemon, honey, chili, and the aromatic spices really turns up the flavor. The combination of sweet, spicy and tangy will really make your taste buds happy.
Garden Vegetable Soba Recipe
I’m all about making real meals simple and convenient enough for weekdays. The easier it is, the more likely you are to cook it and eat it. This delicious recipe is a great way to use up a lot of odds and ends from the fridge or vegetable basket. It makes a great option for packed lunch as it tastes equally good warm, cold, or at room temperature. I usually serve this garden vegetable soba noodles with a piece of oven baked fish or chicken for a more substantial meal.
Grilled Okra
Okra is a summertime culinary pleasure and grilling turns into something super special and irresistible. It takes away all the sliminess and adds a delicious toasty flavor. Tossed with salt, pepper, and sumac okra makes a perfect finger food or a hearty side with meat instead of French fries.
This is what I making these days with my home grown okra because it is the best!
Lemon Blueberry Tart
This blueberry tart is made with a homemade gluten free pastry crust. The ingredients are pretty basic. I replaced half of the rice flour with millet flour giving it a nutritional boost and buttery flavor. It has a thick crumbly, cookie-like crust, on the outer edges, and the bottom crust under the filling is slightly cake like. The buttery millet crust is filled with slightly sweetened, creamy lemon custard and fresh BC Blueberries. The perfect summer dessert!
