Tapioca Paneer stuffed Kofta curry

Image
Today While doing vegetable purchase found fresh Tapioca and bought.  Today for a change did Tapioca Kofta curry which is stuffed with paneer. I am always used to eating boiled tapioca with sugar from childhood and recently started experimenting different recipes with it like Tapioca stuffed with cheese Nuggets ,  Tapioca sticks  . Today wanted to make some main dish with Tapioca and here it is an Indian Tapioca Kofta stuffed with paneer curry. These koftas can used without curry as a starter kind or even can go between burger with crispy lettuce, cheese slice and some sauce. As curry It was very good with Indian flat bread.

Zucchini Healthy Dip

Image
Today had this zucchini and was lazy to make elaborate cooking so came up with this sandwich filling which can be used as dip for chips and Nachos. This is pretty healthy and creamy special for fussy kids who hates veges. I have added a cup of Yogurt and one tablespoon of mayo for cheesy flavor. Substitute it with mayo with grated cheese or cheese spread for creamy texture. Instead of Zucchini you can use veges or even pan fried paneer pieces. This is very good for lunch box , evening snacks and also for picnic. It's our duty give kids at least little healthy during this fast food culture prepare healthy foods to suit your kids taste and enjoy.

5 Ingredient Banana Oats Cups

 I was not joking about just five ingredients and you will get healthy and tasty snack. For more flavor you can add chocolate chip, raisin and nuts, Cinnamon etc........... I have been making it for dessert for past 3 days and it is quite addictive. My husband asked me not make it anymore, once you start eating you don't feel like stopping. Even then I made it today to give girls who come for craft class, they enjoyed it very much.

Creamy Fusion Cauliflower

Image
This Creamy Cauliflower is a fusion like recipe and, I have done it in two steps, one is preparing Cauliflower like a fried tikka  purely Indian style, and then a creamy white sauce which is made commonly for pasta. Looks like a western food and looks can be deserving this dish tastes totally different. I have to pat myself on the for making dish. It can take with just some Garlic bread or just like that.

Eggplant Dip Quesadilla

Image
It has been little long since I wrote in my blog, not  only blog it has been little long since i have cooked properly in my house. I have been using lots of eggplants in my recipes yet here again one more to add in the list. As always i have made it with Wheat flat bread and 99.99% except little cheese. Hope you all will try it out. You can add fried veges, mushrooms or even cooked Chicken or lamb to it. Be creative with what use Since returning back from holidays my fridge is literally empty so doing this dish with whatever i have handy now. So many days i have been thinking about making this dish and finally did it. This dip is almost like Baba Ganoush but in my own way.

Chicken Cheese Toast

Image
Kiddies will have there holiday parties and this is best recipe for such parties and later when school reopens also this is perfect filling recipe for snack break. Chili Cheese toast you must have heard now here is Chicken Cheese toast which can be prepared so fast. . As usual don't worry vegetarians you can use paneer instead of chicken and make it in the same way.

Curd Curry with leftover Coconut Chutney

Image
Left over curd + Leftover Coconut Chutney turns into easy curd curry which is a best food this summer Check out How? I make coconut chutney everyday, How much ever i make there is always some leftover. Then i got this idea of making use of it to make Curd curry for lunch without wasting? It is very easy and tastes good with rice for Lunch.  In coconut we have spices which will give good taste for your curry and roasted chana dal which will give little thickens, so it works better for this curry. 

Grilled Herb Chicken

Image
Fresh Herbs mixed Grilled Chicken makes your taste-bud cry. Yes freshly crushed herbs with Chicken in Barbecue or Tandoor or simply shallow fried is best way to eat chicken. If I make this chicken my daughter likes to eat it with chutney only, no breads rotis or anything else with this Chicken. Within minutes this grilled chicken will be ready. If you have a big party and light up your grill then it is okay, otherwise just to grill few pieces of chicken this is the best method for grilling.

LeftOver Cabbage Subzi Momos

Image
 Kids do this Face for Cabbage  Subzi. This will be their reaction when they eat this Momos. This momos is made in a very healthy way without using any preserved items like soy sauce, Ajinomoto etc. I do this momos whenever i make cabbage subzi and she has never complained about eating it. If you are worried that our kid is not eating vegetables trying something innovative and making them eat it is not a mistake. Try this recipe.

Pesto Paneer Sandwich

Image
Yet Another sandwich filling idea. Pesto is good in taste but very strong flavored sauce. If you add it directly to your sandwich that punch won't be there. Paneer will is mild and good combination with this strong flavored pesto. In most of the sandwich you can add cheese but I try not to.  

Two way Fully loaded Vegetable

Image
Yes, This dish is loaded with many vegetables, Today I used whatever vegetables I had in home, but you can use any vegetable like Carrot, Zucchini, Broccoli, Potatoes, Baby corn, Mushroom, Cauliflower like that. Sometimes we just eat these vegetables with some dip, Here today I have shown two ways of wrapping vegetables in Roti or like sandwich filling inside bread.

Coleslaw Sandwich

Another creamy Sandwich filling which can be made and stored for few days. This filling is perfect for asking kids to help make. You don't have to use fire and can be done within seconds.

Suddenly if you want make some snack also this is good, you don't have to make it only with Broccoli it can be done with different vegetables. Actually i use this same recipe for Stuffed paratha and also for stuffed buns.
