Mutton Ghee Roast
I absolutely adore south Indian curries, whether they come from Kerala or Mangalore, they are rich in spices and mellowed out typically with coconut. This Ghee roast does not contain cream like it’s north Indian counterparts but gets its rich buttery flavour from the ghee. This recipe uses almost 7 ½ tbsps. of Ghee. You …
Shrimp or Prawn Cutlets (Dangar)
Shrimp cutlets are an old childhood favorite. Both my grandmothers made them, one was hard core Goan and the other East Indian. Both strong women and amazing cooks. May they both rest in peace. Many times these cutlets are made from a combination of ground shrimp and small baby fresh shrimp. Unfortunately I have only …
Bread Pudding – Instant Pot
This is one of my favorite things to make. Unlike your standard recipe bread pudding, the addition of caramel, orange and pistachios make this truly unique. Typically Bread Pudding is made using day old or older bread as a great way to make a simple dessert. The original recipes are simple and considered a cheap …

Goan Beef Croquettes
My earliest memories of Croquettes were eating them at George’s Restaurant & Bar in Panjim, Goa. Now, I have not been to Goa in forever but I do know that this restaurant is located next to an iconic church. Panjim or Panaji is the capital city of Goa but you don’t have to be there …
Asian Beef Short Ribs
Inspired by a recent video by Marion’s Kitchen, I created this recipe with my spin on it and cooked it in less time using an Instant Pot. I really love to slow cook, it cooks the meat giving it an incredible fall of the bone texture, however, sometimes you don’t have the time to slow …
Chapli Kebabs – Peshawari Kebabs – Fried Meat Kebabs
This recipe is LONNNNG in the making! A subscriber asked me years ago to make a video on this. After researching this delicious deep fried kebab I realized that there are different ways to make it – the way they make it on the streets of Peshawar in Pakistan and the adapted version made by …
Chana Dhal – Instant Pot
There are so many ways to make a dhal. The combinations of lentils and spices make every recipe unique. I love Chana dhal but always had to remember to soak it in advance. In the Instant pot you can throw this in without the presoak time and it still turns out amazing! Here are the …
