Saffron Indian Rice Pudding … sweet indulgence
“I haven’t had the rice pudding of my life today. But I guess I lost that opportunity with the end of my childhood.”William Rice The magical combination of the holiday season & winter gives rise to many rich dessert making opportunities. The nip in the air makes it all the more enjoyable, & dare I say, somewhat guilt free. This is an indulgent pudding we enjoy once in a while…an eggless Indian rice pudding, a recipe I have concocted over the years, & often make on the go. The quality of rice changes from time to time, but the pudding is quite forgiving. Add some milk if it is too…

BOOKMARKED ROUNDUP 22…Guest hosting my first event!
“Recipes without the author, without the cuisine to which they were once a living, seamless part, die.” John Thorne I‘m delighted to be playing host to this week’s round-up of BOOKMARKED RECIPES, a wonderful weekly event hosted by Ruth of Ruth’s Kitchen Experiments. When Ruth asked if I was OK to host her baby for a week, I readily said yes. To tell you the truth, I was literally shivering with fear as I’ve never stepped beyond participating in an event! But, Ruth, being as organised as she is, sent her baby with a impeccable list of instructions & a manual, & it’s been a great experience. Thanks for trusting…

PANNA COTTA with STRAWBERRY COULIS…Elegant & Sublime!
“Good food gladdens the heart.” Author Unknown Panna Cotta with Strawberry Coulis… An elegant, simple Italian dessert. Creamy & incredibly satisfying! Having read about it several times, I always wondered of how beautiful & versatile something like this would be. Somehow never got down to making it till now when strawberries started showing up in the market. Sublime…& a sure winner. DH loved it & the kids found it AWESOME!! The pudding before it was sent to chill!! I scoured plenty of recipes on the net, & I finally settled for this one from Good Morning America by Chef Emeril Lagasse…I had to do one with strawberry coulis. Coulis is…

WRAP ON 2007…the year that whooshed by!
“We have so much time and so little to do. Strike that, reverse it.”Roald Dahl, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory View from my window in 2007… That time of the year again; am racing as usual…still so much to do, and so little done. Even the year has almost come to an end! Huff Puff!! Will make an attempt to get onboard Nupur’s blogevent ‘Best of 2007’ to mark the end of 2007…a chance to do a SWOT on ourselves! I’m not sure I’m good at this, but will give it a shot since I committed. Am still pretty new around here, and have been hooked onto blogland only since…
