Food Styling made easy
Here is a light salad with couscous and a vinaigrette. The texture of pearl couscous is unique, and it works well with the crunch from fresh vegetables. With summers fast approaching, a light salad for lunch is such a great idea.
Squash flowers stuffed with a herb cheese mix and batter fried to crisp golden yellow tastes so good. A perfect tea-time snack that needs a little attention during prep. In my opinion, these are the prettiest looking fritters.
Sweet potatoes were my first choice when I wanted to make some healthy Malpuas. Malpuas are pancakes made with semolina, all-purpose flour, milk, and sugar.

Here is a recipe inspired by the Hakka noodles I had from street vendors back in Assam. It is filled with vegetables and is a sure shot winner in my family.
Eggs are always my first choice when I am out of ideas. Toasts, eggs, and juice/coffee is excellent breakfast for me. Hence these delicious deviled eggs got the perfect makeover.
Karzi or Kaji Nemu is ingenious to Assam. We love our sour curries. Chicken curry with Karzi Nemu and rice powder is a dish I had wanted to prepare for a very long time.

This recipe is not authentic Korean, but what I thought will help Kimchi shine through in the best possible way in my kitchen.

Pineapple adds sweetness and freshness to Grilled Cajun shrimps skewers with herb couscous. I grilled these over a grill pan indoors, but fire can add a lot of difference to the taste.

Winter is all about food that makes you feel cozy and nostalgic. Paneer bhurji with chapattis or Indian bread is one such dish.
