Cucumber & Mint Salad

I spent the entire day clearing out the fridge as we’re going away for the weekend (yay!)

Coconut Coriander Chutney

Here’s my version of this popular chutney. Serve with dosas or idlies. 

Cabbage and Carrot Kofta

I’m not generally a picky eater, however there are two vegetables that I absolutely hate; cabbage and carrots and Mangy insists on buying them as he reckons they’re good for us.

Drunken Steak

For someone who doesn’t drink, I sure do use a lot of alcohol in my cooking! Here’s another drunken number – whiskey soaked steaks! These are incredibly boozy and the whiskey does not burn off entirely, so don’t be surprised if you’re a little light headed after this meal 🙂

Onion Rings

The key to good onion rings is to cook them at lower heat for a longer time. Not too hot as the onion rings will brown quickly and the onions would still be raw. By cooking them slowly, the onions have a chance to cook through and become lovely and sweet. Don’t overcrowd the oil, just a few rings at a time and these will make the perfect side dish to your steaks or burgers.

Candied Cashews

This hardly a recipe, just something I throw together when we haven’t got snacks in the house and we’re craving for something sweet. These nuts are so morish on their own and also  go really well over ice ream. The salt is a must as it cuts through all that sugary sweetness and makes the nuts taste like salted caramel, so don’t skip it!
