Dosakaya Pappu

I am the only person in my entire house who hates dosakayalu. The seeds get into my teeth and I have to fish them out with my finger which I absolutely hate. I prefer mom makes them by removing the seeds, but she won’t because my dad loves the seeds and so does my sister. …

Chocolate Muffins (no sugar)

This is a recipe I found on Pinterest, but when I went back and looked, I had lost the recipe, and I didn’t pin it either. It took me a long time to perfect it the way Arlo and VJ like, and I finally have it noted down enough to make them regularly. I absolutely …

Milk Bread

I make bread every week. Ever since the pandemic started, I have decided to make bread at home. I’m not as talented as my best friend, but my family loves the fresh bread smell at home, the softness and a huge slab of Kerrygold Butter on it. It’s not that hard to make especially since …

Desi Smashed Potatoes

It seems forever since I posted something. It has been a long time. My classes, then my sisters wedding and then the arrival of our rainbow baby kept us occupied. I barely had time to be normal, or have fun. VJ and Arlo have had such hectic lives as well. Arlo is in pre-K now, …

Pav Bhaji

I think this is one of the Western India food that I tried the earliest in my childhood. I remember this roadside wala in Ranigunj in Hyderabad who served the best Pav bhaji and Pani Puri. Haven’t been there in 2 decades at least. I don’t even remember when we went there last, but my …

Red Capsicum (Bell Pepper) Pachadi

If this is the first time you are visiting my page, then you should know one thing, we LOVE pickles. We in the sense my entire family. My parents, my in-laws, my husband, my sister and anyone who has ever eaten Andhra pachadulu becomes an instant fan. Our meal isn’t complete without a side of …

Vankaya Allam Mirchi Kharam

One of the most famous Andhra recipes that is loved by all is Vankaya Allam Mirchi which is brinjal or eggplant with green chilies and ginger paste. This is an absolute favorite in our house. When I’m at moms in India, mom never fails to make it. Even when my uncles (moms brothers) visit they …

Shishito Peppers

Everyone knows one thing about us, we love spicy food. We love it hot and spicy. I’ve been like that since I’ve been a kid. I’m so surprised that Arlo doesn’t eat spicy food soon. Peppers are a favorite in our house. I love bell peppers and sweet peppers. I have made sweet peppers in …

Ullipaya Pakodi (Onion Pakora)

I don’t think I have mentioned this before but I’m not a fan of fried food. But when I’m in India it seems like that’s the only thing I eat. Both my mom and mother in law cook all these delicious recipes that are mostly fried. I don’t say no at all, despite complaining, ‘awww …

Aratikaya (Plantain) Mudda Koora

Indian veggies aren’t available at Walmart or Target. When I mean Indian veggies I mean bhindi (okra), lauki (bottlegourd squash), dondakaya (Ivy gourd), Aratikaya (plantain), munnagakaya (drumstick) or chaamadumpa (colocasia). Sometimes I find okra and getting so excited but it’s not the same kind as we get in the Indian store. Even the brinjal or …
