Forget your boring potato sides this summer and try one of these luscious recipes!

Potatoes are an easy way to increase the nutrients and fibre in your diet. So be sure to have your potatoes. I always like to have potatoes on weekend for my brunch.As you all would have known , I love potatoes and paneer in vegetarian dishes.

I was contemplating of recipes to do with small potatoes. Got ideas of doing potato sausage soup, potato donuts, roasted rosemary garlic potatoes, bacon wrapped potatoes, crispy baked potato chips, twice baked golden potatoes, mini stuffed potatoes, mini potato quiche, Parmesan roasted baby potatoes, potato pizza, cheese potatoes, potato crepes, little potato pies, smashed potatoes, spicy honey potatoes, mini potatoes with cream and herbs. And got some indian recipe ideas too. We call the small potatoes as aloo in India. So, here it goes – Crispy Indian aloo, dum aloo, flatbread stuffed with spicy potatoes, potato parathas, aloo dum chaat, aloo spinach, crispy spicy aloo, aloo rice, potato biryani, potato peas masala, potato pickle,potato samosa, and potato gravy. I wanted to mainly see the beauties and not mash them. So I usually concentrate more on a recipe where we can see these little potatoes without just only feeling them. Thought of mentioning my ideas as it may help for people who want to try different recipes from these little potatoes.

Potatoes! Baked potatoes, Mashed potatoes, potato casseroles, hash browns and so on! Seriously, I have not tried a potato recipe that I didn’t like. The least I like are the French fries.Potatoes are the easiest ones to cook and also one of the most favourite vegetables of all especially the kids.

Egg Masala Toast

June 11, 2015 by Suki 9 Comments

10 Minute Egg Masala Toast – – THE BEST quick and easy recipe for egg lovers! All you need is Milk, bread and eggs.

This masala toast is a great recipe for evening snack or perfect for morning breakfast. I would say it is almost similar to the French toast but this is a savory version of it. The bread is dippen in a masala egg mixture and toasted on a griddle pan.

You can use any kind of vegetable with eggs, I used the classic combination of onions, tomato and capsicum. You can always skip even the onions, tomatoes mint and bell pepper. You can even add parsley to this or even grated carrots. In my mind this is quick recipe when you have guests at home, and you just want to make something quick but palatable. This is the best to make as evening snakc or breakfast recipe. It is totally customizeable. This egg will just nicely coat on bread. You will most probably have milk,bread and egg at home always. So, this is perfect savior always. This is also kid friendly. Is that not perfect ?!

I made this for my friends before a month on a morning on a long weekend when they came from Ottawa. I wanted to make something quick for all of them. So, I just made this and they all loved it. Me happy 🙂 as always. I did not slice off my sides from bread because I like my bread sides. The bread I used was sesame bread. I once had it at my work place so got that week then never went there to that store to buy it. I am lazy to go all the way to that shop just to buy sesame bread. But will most probably go this week or next week to buy for my boyfriend as he loves this sesame bagel, he should probably like sesame bread too.

I have some quick morning breakfast recipes using bread that you can try – Vegetable Bread Toast Sandwich, Creamy Mushrooms and Greens on Toast, Sweetened condensed milk toast with Orange zest, Simple Poached egg and avocado Toast. And also other breakfast recipes.

Vegetarians can replace the egg by some maida (all-purpose flour) instead of eggs.

Cauliflower Potato Peas Masala / Aloo Gobi Matar Masala

January 7, 2015 by Suki Leave a Comment

Simple stir fry of potatoes, peas and cauliflower flavoured with aromatic Indian spices.

The thought of cooking curry from scratch probably scares many of us, but it’s really easy when you know the flavor combinations of the different spices. This recipe is for those days where you literally want to dump everything on the pot and return to your dent in the couch. This isn’t tricky to make at the best of times. You just need one pan and one spoon to make this and you may as well have cooked the whole meal on your one stovetop. I made this long back and drafted it, but posting it now. I have a lot of recipes in my draft, it is just sometimes I take some break and it slips out from my mind.

There are many ways of making aloo gobi and here is my favourite version from my kitchen. This recipe is warm and hearty. This is a dry version and this curry ought not to be too soupy, as you want the potatoes to absorb all the flavors in the dish. The potatoes should be juicy from the cauliflower and onion tomato juices but not mushy. Gobi means cauliflower and aloo means potato. Peas are optional here and I just wanted to add it for more flavors. This will take some time to cook but you don’t have any job in the kitchen, just simmer to the point where there is moisture left in the pan for the consistency that you find is signature to this dish.
