Food & Memories of Mangalore
Garlic Butter Lobster Tails – Mmm! What’s not to love? Well, this dish was prepared by hubby dearest a few months ago and it was also perhaps my first time tasting lobsters! If you remember I had mentioned about my allergy and how I avoided all crustaceans for the longest time. Then somewhere in 2014…
Hello people!! I am back with another week’s worth of boshis to help you plan your weekday meals! I hope you enjoy them! If you try any of these (identically) don’t forgot to share a picture and tag me @ruchikrandhap on Instagram. You can find all my boshis under the hashtag #boshiseries there. I hope…
Chatpate Aloo is spicy & tangy baby potatoes, you may call it Achari Aloo too if you wish as the recipe calls for an Indian pickle to form the base of this dish. The fun fact about this recipe is that you can change the way it tastes by changing the type of the main…
***This recipe was first posted on Oct 2, 2012. It is now updated with a video and a recipe card*** October has barely begun and I am already in the mood to celebrate Christmas 🙂 Indian winters are nothing to be excited about but the season brings with it a lot of cheer and warmth. Speaking about cheer – the last quarter of the year is always the best time of the year. Infact, the festive season here usually starts around mid August and ends when a brand new year is ushered in. I am so looking forward to all the festivities, colour and cheer that will soon follow. In preparation for Christmas and all the goodies that will soon follow on my blog, I thought it was an ideal time to post this recipe of the pineapple peel wine…
***This recipe was first posted on Feb 1, 2016. It is now updated with new pictures, a video and a recipe card*** Oranges have been ruling my fruit basket for over 2 months now. The whole of December saw us trying out the different varieties that have been flooding the supermarkets and I couldn’t resist trying out different recipes with them. I have made several cakes and the marmalade has been made twice and gifted to people. There is so much joy in sharing homemade goodies, especially jams and pickles. Honestly, I am not much of a fan of oranges like my hubby and daughter are. I am not a fruit lover when it comes to eating them in their natural form but I love making things out of them. Over the past few years I had only made…
The Boshi series is back!! Hello folks! On public demand (really, I’m not kidding), I have decided to restart the boshi series on the website. I have been religiously posting pictures of my daily meals on Instagram and have started a hashtag #boshiseries so if you are on Insta, please don’t forget to follow me and the hashtag there!! However, for the benefit of those who are not on Instagram, I have decided to share consolidated pictures in batches of 7 that will have you covered for an entire week! I will be sharing these ideas every Sunday and the meal ideas should tide you through from Monday to the following Sunday. For the benefit of all my readers who are on a restricted diet during Lent, I will be sharing a mix of veg, seafood & egg based platters….
Lent is a solemn religious observance for Christians, a period that lasts approximately 6 weeks between Ash Wednesday and Easter Sunday. During this period one is urged to give up vices or temptations of any kind. Most Christians go on a pure vegetarian diet (one that includes no meat, fish or eggs) or a semi vegetarian diet (one that includes fish, seafood & eggs) I have tried to compile a list of almost all vegetarian recipes on my blog that cover a wide range of categories like breakfast, snacks, soups, salads, starters, mains & sides that will help you plan your menu this Lent. This compilation pretty much sums up the veg recipes on my blog excluding sweets, desserts and festive foods as Lent is a time of penance and self denial. If I find that I have missed some…
