Coriander Chicken, with friends at home

Nothing can be experienced to the fullest unless you have friends and loved ones to experience it with. That’s why when our friends Sreya and Sandipan drop in from time to time, often surprising us, the Cheshire-Cat smile makes its appearance on Pooja’s face, and the drinking and eating lasts well into the next day. And every time this beautiful...

Kabaab and savouries in Frazer Town

The Muslim holy month of Ramzan is a time of extremes. Followers of the religion fast from sunrise to sundown, and feast throughout the night. As a result, every city in India has a place where Iftar food is a gala affair and attract people from all faiths.

They see us roll-ing, they salivating

Hailing originally from West Bengal, Pooja and I are great fans of street-side egg, chicken and mutton rolls (the Indian/Bengali equivalent of a frankie or a wrap), and more so when these are combined! The affinity is greater with my wife, who has lived in Kolkata (erstwhile Calcutta) all her life, and has sampled the best of the city’s rolls.

Wine Chicken with Rice: An experimental treat

So, it’s Sunday, and my nephew Sunny has been visiting over the weekend. So Pooja is playing the good host and cooking up a spicy treat. Last evening, she made a paneer dish that I missed out on because I was in office. But not to worry, she has some stored away for later.

No mincing words on this keema: It’s awesome!

A normal Bengali household thrives on fish. So much so that it is rarely considered non-vegetarian any more! As a result, it’s fish for lunch, fish for dinner, and in any other form possible throughout the day, including in savouries like fish fries and fish cutlets. However, neither Pooja nor I are big fans of fish. Even our cat Dodo...

Chicken curry

It’s a Sunday, and most other people waking up to anticipate a sumptuous brunch. However, these are people who have their weekends off. Not me. I have to dash off to work a bit early today, but it’s still in the afternoon.

An eggs-traordinary lunch

They say you are a true adult when the very thing you wanted to do as a child gives you pleasure no more. That includes all those things like: “When I am an adult, I can have all the ice-cream, candy, chocolate, playtime or late-night TV I want, and nobody’s gonna stop me!”

Aloo matar at home

My wife can sometimes surprises me with her special dishes, which cause me to momentarily regress to childhood, a la Anton Ego in Ratatouille being presented the special dish.

Frying Wagon review: 2.5/5

We live in Bengaluru, and the only day of the week I don’t work is Thursday. So as is wont of people on their day off, we tend to indulge our taste buds on this specific day. Not that we don’t on the other days, but on this day, it’s a must. Yesterday (June 4) happened to be a Thursday,...

A noodles-y lunch

My first tryst with noodles was… ah, forget it! Why? Because I, too have forgotten. Honestly, noodles, especially the instant variety, are such a staple in the middle-class Indian household these days that one hardly remembers their first encounter with them. However, they are eaten mostly as afternoon or evening food, or sometimes even breakfast.
