I get loads of cauliflower in the Delhi winter. So much so that I get tired of the vegetable by the end of winter. But start missing it again during the hot summer months. Its not that I do not get the vegetable during the hot summer months. It’s just that I prefer to eat…

Dill Soup
My experiments with soups continues. My farmer has been giving me dill of late. I have never used this herb before. I tried using it to make a green smoothie, but I found the taste not to my liking. I therefore decided that it would be better to cook the dill rather than have it…
Vazhaithandu Mulakootal (Banana Stem Dal)
Mulakootal is a typical and traditional dish from Palakkad, a district of the Southern state of Kerala. You can use any one of several vegetables to prepare mulakootal – spinach, ash gourd, snake gourd, elephant yam, pumpkin, Chinese potatoes, any greens, raw banana, cabbage… The one I am presenting here today is prepared using vazhaithandu…
Quick Vegetable Soup
Yet another soup. This one is so simple that even a child can put it together. From the prolific and iconic Tarla Dalal, bless her. If you are in the mood for something hot (temperature, not chili) and not in a mood to spend a large amount of time in the kitchen, then this soup…
Green Bell Pepper Soup
Bell peppers are called capsicum in India. I shall therefore keep this post to Indian terminology. In my eagerness to try new recipes, I began experimenting with several soups. Most of them turned out really well. More because Hari is a very talented chef rather than any contribution of mine. This is one such soup…
Tamater Ki Tari (Tomato Curry)
I make several kinds of tomato dishes – from just simple cooked and mashed tomatoes to gothsu. I like tomatoes, irrespective of whether it is with breakfast, lunch or dinner. Often, my tomato dishes are spicy, but the beauty of these dishes are that you can make it as spicy (or not at all) as…
Cabbage Soup
Yet another soup. This time, what several people consider to be superfood, cabbage. I hesitate to use cabbage in my salads, though I do on rare occasions. Mainly because it could contain worms that will not be removed through rinsing the cabbage. I therefore prefer cooked cabbage dishes. I was therefore delighted to discover this…
Broccoli Soup
I must credit this recipe to Sharan India. The Sharan website has several wonderful recipes, all WFPBNO. I credit my vegan journey completely to Sharan and Dr. Nandita Shah. I often try out the recipes from the Sharan website – all of them are really wonderful recipes. This broccoli soup pampers you so much that…
Spinach And Chickpea Soup
My love affair with soups continues. And I have to thank the iconic Tarla Dalal for this recipe. It was already vegan. All I had to do was omit the oil. But I wasn’t sure how this soup would turn out. I am not a great fan of spinach since I dislike the raw taste…
Carrot And Cauliflower Soup
I go through phases when I begin to experiment with a specific kind of food. For the past month, it has been soups. That’s mainly because the weather has turned cold (North India has a fairly pronounced winter). I therefore preferred hot or warm soups over cold salads. I appreciate that soups are nowhere close…
