Potato Stew | Potato Stew Recipe | Kerala Recipes

I am a Kannadiga meaning I am from Karnataka, in the Southern part of India. 
That said, my parents have always exposed me to different cuisines from the Southern region as well as other parts of India.
Since my dad grew up in Kerala, he has a special place for Kerala/Malabar cuisine, in his heart which he has passed on to me as well.

 On every trip to Kerala, I remember my father ordering Kerala/Malabar Parota with Kerala style Potato stew / Chicken Stew or Mutton Stew. 

 In November 2018, on a sunny weekend day in Singapore, I decided to cook the Kerala Recipe Potato Stew at home.

 Here is the recipe for the same, inspired by a recipe shared by Alisha on Instagram.

  • 2-3 green chilies
  • 100ml coconut milk
  • 2 tsp coriander powder
  • Salt to taste

  • Keep stirring to make sure that the potatoes do not stick to the bottom up
  • Add some water to the pan and close the lid for 2 minutes
  • In a separate bowl, add some water to 2 teaspoons of coriander powder
  • Once the coriander powder swells up add it to the pan

  • Then add coconut milk based on how much you like the flavour of coconut
  • Add some more salt if needed.

You can follow the above recipe for chicken as well. Just replace the potatoes with marinated chicken and Voila. Kerala Chicken Stew is ready.

Travel Post #5 : 10 BALINESE DELIGHTS TO STIMULATE YOUR TASTE BUDS

Bali is an Indonesian island known for its pristine beaches , beautiful temples and street food. There are a host of Indonesian delicacies that one would come across while walking along any road in this beautiful island. The food they serve in these small eateries ( “Warungs”) looks tempting and is too difficult to resist. Since the Indonesian Rupaiah runs in lakhs don’t be surprised if you are asked to pay up two lakh rupees for a simple dish. On my recent trip to Bali I ended up gorging on authentic Balinese/Indonesian cuisine ; right from street vendors to fancy hotels. The best part is they customize their non-veg dishes to suit the vegetarian palate too. Here are a few items that I devoured on the trip and absolutely loved. 1) Bakso This is a traditional Indonesian delicacy and one of the most popular ones. You will find plenty of street vendors selling Bakso along the streets of Bali. It is an eclectic mix of  tangy,spicy soup, meat balls, wontons, tofu and noodles....

Soya Chunks Broccoli Curry | Soya Chunks Curry Recipe | Indian Recipe

Soya Chunks  Broccoli Curry  | Soya Chunks Curry Recipe | Indian Recipe I attribute my varied palate to my Appa and Amma and no one else. Although South-Indian, growing up I was exposed to so many cuisines and I am not talking about, "just in restaurants". I am talking about "in Amma's kitchen". She wasn't just the Idli-Dosa kinda mom. She always ensured that she cooked up a different storm in the kitchen everyday and for that, I cannot be more thankful. Way before this whole "vegan" thing came into existence, she introduced me to Soya Chunks. We did eat non-veg at home but not everyday. That's when the humble Soya Chunks/ Soya Nuggets come to the rescue. The texture and taste (according to me) are nothing when compared to chicken but there is something about these nuggets that strike a chord with my palate.  Soya chunks especially when cooked in a curry form absorb water and spices. You take one bite and you realize ho...

Gokarna | Gokarna Travel | Things To Do In Gokarna | Travel Post #4

I've gone to Gokarna three times in a row. 2013, 2014 and 2015 and I know the three times is most definitely going to increase to uncountable number of times. Gokarna is actually a temple town in Karnataka,India. Devout people come there only to visit the Gokarnanatha Temple in the main town and see  (dirty) Gokarna Beach. We chose to go away from the usual track and explore the beaches on the other side of town. The first time around we took a train from Bangalore (Yeshwanthpur Station) and got off at the Gokarna Road railway station. The next time we boarded a bus from Navrang Stop at Rajajinagar and got off at the Gokarna Bus Stop. The third time around we boarded the bus from the same stop as above but got off at Kumta since we decided on having a detour before heading to Gokarn (Goks as we call it). Note : I might have to include some images from the internet as my hard disk has got corrupted and I have lost a significant number of pictures :( THINGS TO DO IN GOKARNA ...
