Chicken in Coconut milk & Wine Gravy

Greek Chickpea Soup

For this recipe, I used canned chickpeas. If you are not using canned chickpeas, you'll have to soak chickpeas overnight & cook them in boiling water for 20 minutes, until tender, before making this soup.

Let's-spice-it-up Chicken Extravaganza!!

Before I go on with the recipe, let me warn you, this recipe is not meant for the faint-hearted! It is loaded with lots of flavor and preparing it requires patience, a virtue I recently discovered in myself! The flavors in this dish are imparted due to the South Indian technique of cooking and partly due to the quality of the chicken; I bought an organic whole chicken cut into 16 small pieces for the recipe. Keep the skin on too! Another surprise... there's no water used in this recipe!

Chicken Samosa Filling

Recently I attempted making Indian Samosa from scratch. The dough for the samosa turned out to be a complete disaster! However, the filling turned out to be a success and so it gets its place in my blog!

Tomato Soup with Left-over Pasta

Every once in a while we come across those days with left-over pasta. Recently I too had left-over pasta, almost half of my mushroom baked pasta. Instead of heating it in the microwave the next day, I converted it into a soup and the rest is history! Having said that, you can always use fresh pasta to make this soup :)
