This is the Pav Bhaji I made in Minita Sanghvi’s cooking class, taking notes frantically because she cooks from instinct, not recipes. The quantities for some spices seem quite small but the dish was not lacking flavor; feel free to … Continue reading
Recipe: Creamy Cucumber Salad
Creamy Cucumber Salad came from a German food blog, and it does remind us of salads served at a meals-included Munich hotel during a stay long ago. Goes great with fish or in a smorgasbord-type setting. We’ve drastically cut back … Continue reading
