Sharing a highly loved finger-food today – Crisp-fried Baby corn. Finger-food is perfect for parties and when guests or friends are at home. Last week I shared my Tofu tikka with basil pesto which many of you have liked. So, moving forward with that category of food, I share today my version of fried baby […]
Starters
Tomato and Mint Soup
The weather is just starting to get chilly outside and I am so so soooo much in the mood to sit in some cozy corner of the house sipping onto a bowl full of hot soup. It rejuvenates me and this is the time when I really crave for foods that can be made in […]
Tofu Tikka with Basil Pesto Sauce
‘Tofu’ is a paneer/cottage cheese-like food that is made from soy beans. It is healthier compared to paneer and tastes equally awesome. It can be substituted in every recipe that uses paneer.

The crust was slightly crispy and the flavors were just perfect. I already posted one recipe for cauliflower 65 earlier, so I thought I would share this recipe as well. Happy weekend friends!! […]
Cabbage Rolls filled with Stir-fry Veggies (Low Calorie Meal)

You may also add more veggies of your choice to the filling and add either soy/oats […]

Here I have shared a simple recipe with paneer and corn stuffing seasoned with Italian herbs. It is simple […]
