These crisp and golden brown Onion & Spinach Pakoras are a delicious savoury start to any Indian-themed dinner party. They look fabulous and taste even better. A very popular Indian appetizer, especially in the North, Pakoras are often bought from street vendors who serve them steaming hot wrapped in a newpaper cone. Crisp and golden brown on the outside with a soft fragrant interior of finely chopped spinach, onions, fresh grated ginger, green chillies and an intoxicating combination of aromatic spices, the pakoras are blended together in a fine chickpea flour batter and flash fried at the last minute for an easy and outrageously delicious appetizer fit for a Maharajah. Onion & Spinach Pakoras Makes 12-16 pakoras 1 cup fresh spinach 1 cup chickpea flour 1 medium size onion, finely chopped 1-inch ginger, finely grated 1 green chili, seeded and finely chopped 1 tsp ground fennel seed 1/4 tsp red chili powder 1 tsp turmeric 1 tsp ground coriander 1 tsp cumin a pinch of asafoetida 2 tbsp sesame seeds 1/4 tsp baking powder 1/2 cup ice cold water, and more if necessary salt to taste oil for deep frying Remove the stems from the spinach. Wash, dry and finely chop. Add all the onion, ginger, green chili and all of the spices to the flour and mix well. Add 1/2 cup of ice cold water to make a fluffy smooth batter. Sprinkle the baking powder over this paste and mix lightly. Set aside for 15- 20 minutes. Heat oil for deep frying, until a drop of pakora mixture instantly floats to the top. Don’t let the oil smoke. Drop teaspoon-sized amounts of pakora mix into the oil until the surface is covered. Using a teaspoon gives a dumpling shape to the pakora, whereas dropping the dough from your fingers gives a more delicate, interesting shape. Stir and turn the pakora until they are lightly golden brown on all sides, about 4-5 minutes. Drain on paper towels and serve warm.

A super easy and decadent treat – these no-bake pistachio brownies are rich and chocolatey, but made with healthier ingredients! A simple no-bake base packed with oats, cocoa, a little maple syrup to sweeten and a bit of coconut oil to bind everything together. The centre is made up of pistachio butter, whole pistachios and a little more coconut oil and maple syrup. Pistachios are such an underrated nut. It’s by far my favourite nut. I do think it’s so underrated and under used in the west. Whereas in the Middle East where I grew up, it’s the most popular. They use it in so many desserts and even savoury dishes. But they’re mostly enjoyed on their own – salted […]

They are best eaten fresh off the stove!

These crescent almond cookies are quick and super easy to make. Filled with sweet nutty flavor. Crumbly and crunchy on the outside. No school today for the kids, so we spent the morning at the beach with lots of our friends. With the last effects of Hurricane Marie, even today, the waves were amazingly big and a bit scary. Probably not 15 feet high as the other day, but definitely not safe enough for the kids (or me) to boogie board. Anyways, with this perfect warm and sunny weather, a nice ocean breeze and great company, we all had a blast. I'm now a bit exhausted, ready to relax and cook something delicious. Yes! Baking is a great form of relaxation for me! I had some leftover almond flour from a couple of weeks ago, when I made some delicious, chewy and sticky almond cookies. I really love those cookies, and I was almost tempted to bake the same today. My kids have also been begging for more! But I decided to change recipes and try something new. These cookies are quick and super easy, filled with sweet almond flavor, crumbly and crunchy on the outside. Perfect for a nutritious breakfast with cappuccino or milk. Great for your kids' snack - they will love you even more! And a delicious idea for your afternoon tea. Enjoy! Ingredients: to make about 18 cookies Printable Recipe 2 oz (half stick - 55 gr) of unsalted butter, at room temperature 1/3 cup (60 gr) of sugar 1 egg 1/4 of teaspoon of almond extract 1 pinch of salt 1.5 cups (150 gr) of almond meal/flour 1 cup (120 gr) all-purpose flour 3/4 cup (75 gr) sliced almonds to decorate powder sugar to decorate (optional) Preparation time: 40 minutes Directions: Step 1: In a large bowl, cream the butter with the sugar, salt, almond extract and the egg, until smooth. Step 2: Add the almond meal and all-purpose flour and mix well. Step 3: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Roll pieces of dough into the sliced almonds, and shape in crescent shapes, as shown in my picture. Step 4: Place the cookies on a silicone baking mat or parchment paper over baking sheet. Bake the cookies for about 20-25 minutes until slightly golden on top. Let the cookies cool down and decorate with powder sugar if you like. Enjoy! And have a great weekend :-)
If you like your potatoes sliced thin and baked until they're creamy and cheesy, you will love Hungarian style potatoes. I've based this recipe on the Hungarian version of scalloped potatoes, a casserole called rakott krumpli. It shouldn't be difficult to make potatoes, Hungarian or otherwise I really, really wanted to make this with kielbasa (I know it's not Hungarian), but was unable to find any with walking distance in Valladolid. I tried to substitute fresh chorizo even though the local stuff tends to turn into hard lumps if cooked too long. In addition, I cut the recipe in half
