Tomato and Mint Soup

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.

Green bean Fries
I always crave for some crispy sides for my burgers or wraps. Potato fries is the first thought that comes to my mind, but its calorie content disappoints me. Next comes onion rings, but they too need to be deep fried in oil. So I thought why not make fries with veggies and I found on […]
