Sweet cherries stuck in a quicksand of gooey choco Sweet cherries stuck in a quicksand of gooey chocolate. Doesn't it sounds like a delicious jam to get stuck into? Dig into a velvety chocolate cherry clafoutis, this summer. Ripe, black cherries are at their cheapest now and it's time to bake this classic French dessert with a chocolaty twist.

A clafoutis is basically cherries, or berries or stone fruit such as peaches and nectarines or sometimes, apple or pear, baked in a flan-like custard of flour, eggs and milk/cream. My recipe is rich in flavour and contains NO ADDED SUGAR. If it sounds like something you want to try, check out the recipe on my site www.quichentell.com

Fish and other coastal seafood curries with raw ma Fish and other coastal seafood curries with raw mangoes are very popular during these hot, summer months. In landlocked cities like Hyderabad, raw mangoes are used in a variety of pachadis, chutneys, pickle, raita, dals and vegetable dishes. Few people know of a mutton biryani  or a chicken curry that incorporates raw mangoes.

My recipe for murgh kairi pulao is a lighter, simpler and easier variant of chicken, Basmati and green mangoes. Cooking the mouth-puckering fruit with a few spices, curry leaves, chicken and rice transforms its sourness to a gentle yet distinct fruity tang that envelopes this delicious pulao. This pulao is an easy and tasty one-pot summer dish to add to your menu. You can find the recipe on www.quichentell. com

Banana bread becomes doubly dark and delicious wit Banana bread becomes doubly dark and delicious with cocoa and dark chocolate chips. This one has the goodness of two whole grain flours - barley and whole wheat. Although I haven't used any butter, the bread is tender and soft  because it has oive oil and a generous quantity of soft, ripe bananas. I'm not a fan of frosting because I don't feel the need for extra sugar and fat on everyday cakes and bakes. More importantly, the banana bread is delicious enough on its own. This somewhat health-conscius but wholly yummy recipe is on my site www.quichentell.com

The heat is on! And I'm craving cold things to eat The heat is on! And I'm craving cold things to eat at every meal. A big helping of watermlon tomato salad  is my lunch. It's cool, crunchy texture together with sweet, tart and spicy flavours makes the afternoon a little more bearable

This salad is dressed with a Mediterranean-style vinaigrette of crushed garlic and tomatoes doused with extra-virgin olive oil, a splash of lemon juice and a light dusting of ground cumin, black pepper and paprika. Nothing could be faster, simpler or more refreshing than this beautiful salad.

Mangoes are everywhere and so I made 4 types of c Mangoes are everywhere and  so I made 4 types of chutneys/pickles with them. This is an Andhra  style raw mango and sesame chutney,  mamidikaya nuvvulu pachadi in Telugu. It's really simple but deliciously tangy, nutty and creamy at the same time. This chutney uses raw mangoes that have ripened a little - about 30% maybe. So they're still sour but don't make your jaws tingle. I love to mix into steaming hot rice generously drizzled with ghee and also with crisp dosas. Find the recipe on my site www.quichentell.com.

Niter kibbeh or nit'ir qibe is a wonderfully fragr Niter kibbeh or nit'ir qibe is a wonderfully fragrant clarified butter or ghee. The process is the same as making ghee except that spices are added to the boiling cream.

I used about 1400g of cream to get 500g of niter kibbeh. The cream must be cooked on the lowest flame, else it'll burn. For flavour I used:
3 tbsp chopped garlic
2 tbsp chopped ginger
2-inch piece of cinnamon 
3 black cardamoms
3 cloves
1 tsp black pepper 
1 tsp fenugreek seeds
1 tsp coriander seeds
1 tsp cumin seeds
1/4 tsp turmeric powder 

I couldn't find typically Ethiopian spices like kosseret and besobela but even without them, the niter kibbeh turned out smoky and aromatic. You can add dried herbs too if you like. Try it!

Mackerel, bangda, ayala or kannangadutha is a regu Mackerel, bangda, ayala or kannangadutha is a regular on my table. An inexpensive, healthy fish packed with protein and Vitamin B, I've made curries with it, fried it in different ways and grilled it stuffed with Goan reichad and green masalas. This time, I used chermoula, a marinade popular among the fishing communities  of North Africa, to flavour mackerel. 

Bursting with green leafy intensity, a hint of smokiness from cumin and ciriander snd the bright tang of lemons, chermoula is a perfect foil for the intense oil-rich taste of mackerel. A simple recipe, this dish makes a light and healthy summer lunch. You can find the recipe on my website www.quichentell.com

My experiments with whole grain baking yielded thu My experiments with whole grain baking yielded thus lemon sheet pan cake. I incorporated jowar or sorghum flour in the recipe with happy results. A generous amount of Greek yoghurt and olive keep the cake texture soft and the crumb tender. I know eggless cakes are all the rage but nothing like eggs to make a cake fluffy,  especially those naked rith whole grain flour, which are bereft of gluten and can be dry. 

Loaded with lemon juice and zest, this airy cake gets a final lemony drenching  once it's out of the oven. These recipes are experimental and I share them when I feel they work. But I also know that recipes can always be improved upon. So as readers, fellow bakers and fellow eaters, please share your tweaks and ideas to help better this bake.

A little piece of fresh turmeric goes a long way. A little piece of fresh turmeric goes a long way. This bright, yellow fish curry owes its colour to 2 inches of turmeric root.  As spring fades to summer, curries get lighter, in richness and heat. This fish curry is a good example, it is cooked with mustard seeds but the milder yellow ones instead of the more pungent black mustard. The spice paste has minimal ingredients and coconut milk helps bring it all together in a faintly sweet, velvetty sauce. This easy recipe is now on my site www.quichentell.com

When life gives you red cabbages, make a delicious When life gives you red cabbages, make a delicious pasta sauce. This recipe is easy, 100% vegetarian and almost cooks itself. I love red cabbage and make this often for my family. One small cabbage goes a long way.

Red Cabbage With Penne

You need:
1 small red cabbage, chopped 
2 large onions, chopped
3-4 fat cloves of garlic, chopped
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 tsp red chilli flakes
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar 
2 tbsp olive oil
150g whole wheat penne (serves 2)
Salt
Freshly-ground black pepper 

Boil the penne for approximately 20 minutes in plenty of lightly salted water till al dente. Drain, reserving some of the pasta water.

Put a pan with the olive oil on low heat and the onions. Cover and cook for 5 minutes till the onions are soft.

Add the garlic, chilli flakes and chopped cabbage, mix well, cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Season with salt, tomato paste, ACV and 1 tbsp of the pasta water.  Cook for 10 more min.

The vegetables would've softened and caramelised to a golden brown.Finally add about 100ml more pasta water.  You will have a thick, coating sauce. Turn off the flame, generously add black pepper, add the cooked pasta, toss and serve.

Quiches don't have to be loaded with calories to b Quiches don't have to be loaded with calories to be delicious. Made with olive oil and whole wheat, the shortcrust pastry in my spinach and corn quiche is light and tasty even if it's not as flaky as pastry with butter. 

The filling is packed with fresh spinach and sweet corn cooked with onion, garlic and dried herbs. A smattering of feta on the quiche base  adds that little hit of salty tang. We ate it warm for dinner, but leftover slices from the fridge make a great  snack or breakfast. You can find the recipe on my site www.quichentell.com

Seeing the abundance of winter vegetables sparks s Seeing the abundance of winter vegetables sparks so much joy and gratitude in me.  I feel blessed to be able to cook with them and be nourished by all that nature bestows on us.  Having lived mostly south of the Vindhyas, I haven't coomed much with vegetables such as turnips and kohlrabi (ganth gobhi).

So, I was excited this year to be in Delhi ( even though I'm not a fan of its extreme climate). Made Ganth Gobhi Gosht, with fresh, crunchy batch of knol khol or kohlrabi. This light stew of mutton and kohlrabi is cooked in milk, and spiced with fennel and dried ginger. I was inspired by the simple, delicate flavours of Kashmiri cuisine and tried to incorporate them in this stew. Succulent meat, sweet and peppery ganth gobhi and warm spices come together in the thin, broth- like, sauce that looks pale and milky but  tastes deeply of a scented warmth. Recipe is now on my blog www.quichentell.com

I'm having a moment with oranges so the saga of co I'm having a moment with oranges so the saga of cookig with them continues. Baked an everyday Orange and Honey Loaf Cake. Sweetened with clear, golden honey and doused with a generous portion of orange zest and juice, this loaf smells gloriously of fruit. I chucked in some walnuts for bite and skipped the butter for regular olive oil. I bake more often than not with olive oil and reserve the butter for a few occasions. Olive oil gives me a nice, moist crumb and I find myself not missing the butter at all. 

I love butter but since I bake frequently and because my food has to be heart-healthy, olive oil is my go to good fat. This sunny loaf is for all orange-lovers. The recipe is now on my site

Stepping away from the rich, festive food of the s Stepping away from the rich, festive food of the season, it was a pleasure to bake a cake that was quick, simple and really delicious. I made a chocolate strawberry cake without flour and butter. Toasted almond gives it a moist and light texture and eggs aerate the crumb in this marriage of dark chocolate and fresh, ripe strawberries.

It is indulgent without being heavy and perfectly jammy with sweet segments of fruit baked into the dark, velvety chocolate batter. Enjoy strawberry season with this elegant, low-cal cake. Recipe can be viewed on www.quichentell.com

Dinner in #dillikisardi last night was a belly-war Dinner in #dillikisardi last night was a belly-warming bowl of sichuan-style chicken soup. The dark, satisfying broth flavoured with tingling sichuan peppercorns (called timur in India), black pepper, ginger, dark soy sauce and shaoxing wine, was just what the doctor ordered. 
I bought the sichuan peppercorns from a tiny stall in #dillihaat selling products from Uttarakhand. These innocuous looking peppercorns are super zingy, and their keep your tongue tingling for minutes after you've eatrn them. They added a beautiful smokiness to the soup.
Juicy chunks of chicken thight and silky, thick, whole wheat udon noodles made the soup a complete one-bowl meal.

Baked this very adult Upside Down Orange Cake some Baked this very adult Upside Down Orange Cake some time ago, took pictures and then somehow never got around to posting about it. I call it a cake for grownups because it has an entire orange, skin, pith, flesh and juice (everything save the pips) in it. As a result, the flavour is a complex but very  delicious bittersweet. 

Also, a good glug of brandy hides within its scented and moist crumb.  I see myself serving it at cocktail parties and intimate dinners with a glass of dessert wine or liqueur. Fairly easy to make, it akes an impressive looking dessert. If your interest is piqued, grab the recipe on my blog www.quichentell.com
