Oatmeal, Raisin and Chocolate-Chip Cookieswhat is it about oatmeal-raisin cookies that spells instant comfort? i can’t say – and i have spent a good 10 minutes writing and erasing words trying to convey my feelings. but then again, if you like oatmeal-raisin cookies, you probably don’t need me to convince you about why they are so enticing but apart from their crispy-chewy… |

Mushrooms in Coconut Milk Curryi should probably call this post “the nearly forgotten one” – given that i wrote down the recipe ages ago, but forgot to post it. i first tasted this curry some months back - my mum had made it for dinner when i had a friend over. it was a nice change from the paneer and mixed-vegetable options that i usually resort to when i cook for… |

Pancakesmention the word “pancakes” and the image that comes to my mind is of breakfast on a beautiful weekend morning with hot pancakes and maple syrup, freshly brewed coffee and a leisurely flick through the day’s paper. i think pancakes were invented so that people could have leisurely weekend breakfasts. i haven’t had pancakes in a while,… |
