Saag Paneer

So many Indian food recipes, yet so little time. Here is one of the greats. One who needs no introduction. My favorite, saag paneer. Mic drop. This one is for all of those kale skeptics out there whose hearts and minds (and stomachs) I couldn’t change with my last post for kale and saag paneer.Continue reading “Saag Paneer”

Kale and Paneer Saag

By a show of hands, who here is a kale skeptic? For the longest time, I would have joined you in your kale skepticism. While I used to be one of those kale disbelievers, I’m telling you this kale & paneer saag might just turn you. Saag (specifically mushroom saag…if you haven’t had it before,Continue reading “Kale and Paneer Saag”

Shakshuka

If I could only have one final breakfast, I’d want that breakfast to be this shakshuka with some pita or crusty sourdough bread. Hands down, no question. I mean what could be better than a tomato and spinach stew with runny eggs and cheese on top? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. Shakshuka is a spicy tomato andContinue reading “Shakshuka”

I do realize that sour cream and yogurt aren’t buttermilk,Continue reading “Sour Cream Pancakes”

Leek and Mushroom Cottage Pie

So, you don’t know what a cottage pie is? I didn’t either, but now that I do, I don’t want to live in a world without it. My dad has always been what one would call a meat and potatoes kind of guy; preferring that every meal to contain meat in one form or another.Continue reading “Leek and Mushroom Cottage Pie”

Killer Kickin’ Kimchi

Kimchi is a magical example of fermentation at work. Fermentation is a beautiful thing when making beer and sourdough starters, but once you try kimchi, it’ll be your new favorite fermented food. I promise! For me, as I’m sure for many others too, this time in quarantine has made me really nostalgic for a timeContinue reading “Killer Kickin’ Kimchi”
