{Baking/Vegetarian} ROASTED BELL PEPPER, MUSHROOM & RICOTTA CALZONES … l♥ved ’em!
“Do vegetarians eat animal crackers?” Author Unknown Happy ‘hump day‘!! Am battling the flu and a flu ridden family but seem to have gotten the better of Wednesday. ‘Wordless Wednesdays‘ prove elusive as always, maybe because I have too much to say. For that matter I never seem to make it to a ‘Meatless Mondays‘ post either; guess that’s fine because my food isn’t ruled by days of the week. That said, I make sure the grub is meatless at least 3 times a week, and these calzones proved to be just the thing. The combination of the filling, the depth the roasted bell peppers provided and the yumminess of…

{Baking} OLIVE OIL WALNUT BROWNIES … darned good bites!
“Other things are just food. But chocolate’s chocolate.” Patrick Skene Catling Can there ever be enough chocolate goodness in our lives? Not a chance, so as promised I’m back with another chocolate recipe. This time it’s Chef Darren Conole’s Olive Oil Brownie recipe that he created for us to sweetly wrap up lunch at the Borges Olive Oil Meet for Food Bloggers and Critics at the Shangri-La Eros Hotel, New Delhi. The banter over lunch that day went from the poor pumpkin which is ever so neglected, to Michelin star chefs and food trends in the UK, and then to the chefs cute as a button toddler who turns his…

{Food Bloggers & Critics Meet} FUN, FOOD & OLIVE OIL … Bagna Cauda, Aioli, Panzanella & Chilean Sea Bass served with Garbure Catalane … recipes included!
‘The belly rules the mind.’ Spanish Proverb The Delhi food bloggers got together once again, this time for a meet hosted at the beautiful 19 Oriental Avenue, Shangri-La’s Eros Hotel, New Delhi, with Borges India. Borges is making large forays into the Indian consumer market, trying to increase the acceptability and thereby the adoption of olive oil in Indian cooking, more as a lifestyle change. Olive oils have the highest amounts of mono-saturated fats in the world. Being rich in anti oxidants, the use of this oil helps fight cancer, and increases life expectancy. The food and critics meet was an interactive session co-hosted by Borges India, Chef At Large…

“When I walk into my kitchen today, I am not alone. Whether we know it or not, none of us is. We bring fathers and mothers and kitchen tables, and every meal we have ever eaten. Food is never just food. It’s also a way of getting at something else: who we are, who we have been, and who we want to be.” Molly Wizenberg, A Homemade Life And life goes on, whether we have a kitchen or not, we still have mouths to feed. I am the queen of the makeshift kitchen in the morning before the workers plod in, and still attempt to whip up a decent balanced…

Vanilla Chocolate and Chocolate Walnut Eggless Cake … back to the basics
“Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.” John Wooden It’s time for the Daring Bakers and this time I have to say I’m sorry I couldn’t keep a date with the challenge. My kitchen is ‘under attack‘ {read renovation}, and things are still in disarray. What should have been completed last week is yet to be done, dragging on frustratingly. That’s not to say I haven’t managed to sneak in a bake now and then, but I couldn’t manage the chocolate dipping stage etc of the challenge. I did have a LMP {last minute plan} with some clarified butter on hand. Thought I could…
