You Aloo Gobi looks so nice! Have you tried making chapatis before? I know it's just water and flour but it always looks like there's some skill in them 🙈

Hi! Thank you so much :) yup I've made chapattis before and they're actually really easy to make. I guess they do require some skill because mine never come out in perfect circles :P but with practice you can definitely nail it☺

Banana-pecan muffins with applesauce I tried to go healthier this time and substitute butter with some homemade applesauce and the muffins came out just as good:) Still fluffy and moist on the inside and crunchy on the outside. I'm definitely going to be making this version from now on.

Spaghetti with a red wine marinara sauce I've been wanting to use red wine for a while and finally decided to. It added a fantastic new aroma and flavor. Definitely going to use it more often :) For the sauce I usually prefer to kepp it simple with some fresh tomatoes, onions, garlic and oregano.

ChoColAte FroSted VaNilLa CupCakEs

This was a perfect dish to wrap up 2016; 1. Desserts, baking and chocolate pretty much sum up my world 2. I got to mess up the kitchen with my cutest and favorite cousins.

For the batter I actually ended up using baking soda instead of baking powder but it didn’t make much of a difference. I’ll probably use a little less sugar next time though, especially if I want to frost them with buttercream because that ends up adding quite a bit of sugar on it’s own.

Also, HAPPY NEW YEAR :) :)

Aloo Gobi This is an Indian dish which is essentially just potato (aloo) and cauliflower (Gobi). I made it with a gravy this time but dry tastes as good :) Ingredients: Vegetable oil Green chili Ginger-garlic paste A few tsps cumin seeds Cut tomatoes Cut Onion Garam masala Coriander powder Salt and sugar Cut potato Cut cauliflower Water Turmeric powder (Sorry for the lack of measurements; I did everything by eye as I didn't follow a specific recipe) For the gravy part, sauté the cumin, chili, ginger garlic, onion in oil and then add in the tomatoes. Then add in spices and season. After about 7 mins (tomatoes should be cooked), grind the mixture to form a paste. Meanwhile, cook the potato and cauli in a little oil and then add some water and cook. Once cooked, add in the paste and mix. Then you can eat it with a lightly spiced rice or Indian bread :)

Cinnamon rolls :) Just the name makes me warm and fuzzy inside. Although I’ve never actually been a huge fan of cinnamon , this is such a common sweet and it seemed right to try it out close to Christmas…they were really easy to make and surprisingly even my dad (who isn’t high on sweets) took to it :) I did use a little bit less cinnamon however, than what the recipe called for and also white sugar instead of brown. But it’s definitely a must try dessert!

HALLOWEEN CUPCAKES 🎃 The best thing about them is that you can do pretty much anything with the decorations 😀

Eggplant parmesan Definitely one of the favorites in our house and its actually one of my grandma's recipes Essentially there are only two major steps- Frying the eggplant and making the marinara sauce For the sauce I just used some fresh tomatoes, garlic, onion powder, oregano, some chili flakes, salt, sugar and of course some basil After frying the thinly sliced pieces of eggplant, set up 2 layers of eggplant, sauce and grated mozzarella ( in that order) Sprinkle some parmesan cheese over the top and bake for about 40 mins at 450f The eggplant gives the dish a very special and unique flavor and this can be eaten individually or with some spaghetti 😊

Potato fry... One of the all time favorites in our house...usually my dad is the one to make it but this time I gave it a shot Its one of the easiest, quickest and tastiest things to cook up Just requires sautéing some mustard seeds in some oil, adding some chopped potato maybe some onion...and then some salt and chili powder You can experiment with this in so many different ways by adding more veggies or spices...its pretty cool 😀

Grilled Italian sandwich Olives. Capsicum. Onion. Garlic. Oregano. All tossed in olive oil and sandwiched between cheesy buttered bread. This is a family favourite and we usually end up making it atleast once a week...you can add your own veggies n spices to it too of course 😃

[toofood2betrue]

Spinach and onion quiche I’ve been wanting to make one of these for a while now and finally got to try it out yesterday…it ended up tasting pretty good 🙌 but I’ll probably add some other veggies like maybe mushrooms the next time. Also for the crust I added an egg which helped to make it less crumbly☺
