This is such an easy and delicious curry. It is incidentally vegan as well, it’s gluten free, I think it might be accidentally paleo – really it’s good for everyone doing every diet except for low carbs (though you could eat it by itself without the rice and it’s probably good for that too). It made about 6 servings and I was more than happy to eat all of them myself but I did have to share so I see a repeat of this recipe next month!
This is your very super basic tomato soup. It’s earthy and comforting and warm. I’m always skeptical of vegan dishes but despite not having any dairy (yes, no butter or cream!) the texture of the soup is creamy and thick. I accidentally had a bit of a heavy hand on the red pepper flakes but when enjoyed with a crusty piece of bread the extra spice was just right.
Despite the picture I actually could have cooked these for another 10 minutes to get a better texture (they were more cake than scone) but they were so delicious that I didn’t mind at all. Next time I will use the suggested topping with the cream and sugar but I left it off originally because it seemed like it would be too sweet. These are perfect for a quick morning breakfast.
Yum! This cake was so moist and delicious! It’s just like the Tri Color Cookies I love to make but it’s so much easier to make. The cake looks extremely impressive but it’s really very simple and no harder than a standard chocolate or yellow cake.
This is a great lunch recipe. It’s quick, easy to make, you can add anything you like in to it and you can even make a few different flavors for different people (if you have fussy people in your house). I make mine with onion, peppers, and mushroom but feel free to use any of your favorite pizza toppings even pineapples and ham just make sure any meat you used it cooked and that any toppings are cut in to small pieces.
Challah is a traditional egg bread made by Jewish families all over the world. For me it’s the most basic treat from Friday nights and holidays. This recipe makes a soft, fluffy loaf that expands to great heights and is sure to impress your friends and family. The taste and smell remind me of New York bakeries back home but out of the oven, eaten slightly warm, there’s nothing like it!
The potatoes do have to soak before you bake them so there is a 30 minute wait and the 30 minute cooking time makes less very less convenient than their frozen counterparts but they’re delicious and taste and feel just like they were fried without all the extra fat and oil needed to fry. They also take only 2-3 minutes of active work, mostly just chopping up a potato.
This recipe is mostly born out of my lack of desire to fry things. I don’t like frying because it’s wasteful of oil, it’s pretty messy, and I usually burn myself. The best fried food comes from professional fryers and since they’re at least $100 for a very good fryer that I will use all of once or twice a year I tend to lean towards adapting deep fried recipes to be oven or pan fried recipe. This recipe was absolutely delicious but a little too much work for a weeknight.
This is my go to chocolate chip cookie recipe. It’s no nonsense and they cookies come out light and fluffy with just a little bit of chew to them. Best enjoyed while they’re still a bit warm (you can pop them in the microwave for 10 seconds the next day to get that just out of the oven feel!)
This dish takes time. It’s a labor of love and it’s worth making in bulk due to the large scale process. It can be frozen and it can also be halved if you’d just prefer to make less. Japanese curry is not hot like Indian or Thai curries and instead is made with a roux and has a thick, stew-like texture to it.
