‘NALLI GOSHT’…A lamb curry on the bone & a ‘grindless gravy’ at that!
“This curry was like a performance of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony that I’d once heard…..especially the last movement, with everything screaming and banging ‘Joy.’ It stunned, it made one fear great art. My father could say nothing after the meal.” Anthony Burgess NALLI GOSHT…A robust, traditional lamb curry. Here we go again. With winter here, a finger-licking good, different curry is most welcome. This is a hearty, ‘mild on spices & full of flavour’ lamb curry, made from a recipe my sister-in-law sent with huge recommendations! A Sanjeev Kapoor recipe. She proved her point. Lovely tasting curry , ‘grindless‘ (thanks once again to the microplaner), & delicious! More so, very very…

KASHMIRI MEATBALLS IN A GRINDLESS GRAVY!
“Red meat is not bad for you. Now blue-green meat, that’s bad for you!” Tommy Smothers Kashmiri Meatballs in Gravy Kashmiri cuisine or Wazwan has always held a fascination for me by way of how different it tastes. The other day I found an interesting sounding recipe for Mutsch Kashmiri Meatballs at A Mad Tea Party. After browsing the write-up, right up to the last 2 meatballs et al, the mind was made up. This I just had to try, & promptly put it on my agenda of interesting ‘must-makes’ in the near future! Hesitatingly, with fingers crossed, I even used mustard oil as the recipe suggested. I made this…

I’VE BEEN TAGGED…Kiwi Cake & ‘Meme’ in My 100th POST!!
‘Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try!’ Seuss KIWI FRUIT in a Sponge with Fresh Cream, Almonds & Marmalade I can’t believe that its time for my 100th post. Phew…it’s been a long journey by my meagre standards when I entered the world of bloggers a few months ago, with thoughts if I would last it out. Can say I’m having a great time & am still in awe of bloggers who’ve been around for years. It’s a wonderful world out here in the blogosphere which goes by the mantra “THE MORE, THE MERRIER”!! My…

A CRUMBLE TO FALL FOR…a healthy Apple Crumble!
“Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking successive autumns.” George Eliot Sugar & spice & ‘FALL’ things nice…that’s what I’m made up of! Cinnamon scrolls…adding flavour to the Crumble! A twist to the regular crumble to make it healthier. I have substituted the butter for margarine, and lightly toasted (or roasted) the oats to bring out the crunch and flavour. Apples, cinnamon & walnuts bring out quite the best in each other…as far as taste, colour and warmth go. The only thing missing are the twirling leaves when the south wind blows!! Guess we can…
