Homemade gifts are the best. Here is a Ricotta Chocolate Dried Fruit and Nut Fudge I made this year - perfect to box them and hand them over when we walk in for the party: http://www.ecurry.com/blog/desserts-sweets/ricotta-fudge-with-dried-fruits-nuts-and-chocolate/

Weekend Cook and Tell: Summer Seasonality

Blacberries! this year we are going bonkers over it, eating them mostly raw and some simmered gently with crepes. But I saved some of them to make Blackberry Ice Cream with Amaretto. Needless to say, they were an instant hit! http://www.ecurry.com/blog/desserts-sweets/blackberry-ice-cream-with-amaretto/

We also have plenty of zucchini flowers in our backyard and here is the gluten free blossom fritters we are indulging on almost every single day: http://www.ecurry.com/blog/starters-snacks/chickpea-and-poppy-seed-batter-fried-squash-blossom/

Weekend Cook and Tell: Brunchin' with Mom

My mom is not here with us anymore and I miss her. But being a mom myself now, I made this Strawberry Chutney with my mom in mind -a twist to the chutney she used to make, made with the seasonal strawberries. I have brought back the bowl she used to keep her chutney in.

Weekend Cook and Tell: Tea Time

I grew up in India and the afternoon tea time (with masala chai) in India is as elaborate as the English tea party with friends, families, food and chit chat. However we mostly serve savory snacks with chai (and also some cookies). Here is a quick "Indian Spiced Crash Potatoes" perfect to go with Masala Chai : http://www.ecurry.com/blog/indian/curries/dry/indian-spiced-crash-potatoes/
