WELCOME

I love to eat. And anyone who knows me knows that I also love to feed. Unfortunately I'm not always in close proximity to the people who love to eat my food. So this website is for those who miss my cooking, or for those who are feeling adventurous and are looking for some new flavor in their kitchen.
A lot of these recipes are family recipes and you will be hard pressed to find them in your friendly neighborhood Indian restaurant. They are also pretty regionally specific, so if you happen to find yourself in a "Marathi" restaurant in Mumbai (the most culturally diverse city in India), you may see some familiar fare on the menu.
From time to time I will stray from Indian food; Thai, Italian, Middle Eastern. But I always find my way back!
I hope you enjoy these recipes as much as I do.
Eat Happy!

Corn soup


This is clearly not an Indian recipe, but it's something my Mom used to make me when I was little and I loooooved it! I don't really know where it's from... it's kind of like cream of corn soup, but it has a little kick to it.

Ingredients:
1 can of sweet corn (can sub w/ 1 10oz package of frozen corn)
1/4 tsp cinnamon pwd
1/4 tsp crushed black pepper
1 onion, chopped
1/4 cup whole milk combined w/ 1 tsp cornstarch
1 cup skim milk
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
1/2 tbsp oil

Cook:
Heat oil on medium heat.
Add onions, cinnamon and black pepper and saute for few mins.
Add garlic and saute everything until onions are transparent.
Add corn and skim milk.
Cover and reduce flame to low heat.
Add salt and simmer for 15 mins.
When milk evaporates, add milk/cornstarch mixture to thicken soup.
Once thicker, turn off flame. Adjust salt according to taste.
ENJOY!
