The success to making any good lamb or mutton biryani recipe is tender meat and cooking it the right way on a low flame or heat. Most folks fail to prepare a good mutton recipe or mutton curry, due to the wrong choice of meat. Using one that is not tender. Next overcooking or cooking on high flame too can make it hard. I have included clear instructions on how to cook mutton that yields soft and tender chunks....

Traditionally, fried chicken wings are floured or battered and then pan-fried, deep fried, or pressure fried. The breading adds that nice, crispy exterior that many enjoy. But let me offer you an alternative. How about intensely flavorful and fall-off-the-bone tender fried chicken wings? Here is my quick and easy pan fried chicken wings recipe that everyone in my family enjoys, especially the kids. These pan fried wings win by a wide margin over many other fried wing recipes we tried....

Are you a leftover person? Because I am! Perhaps it just comes with the territory of being a food blogger, but I will always vote for lunch leftovers over a cold sandwich. This quick and easy pork stir fry is my latest leftover obsession (as is this Egg Roll in a Bowl recipe). It’s easy to pack, can be reheated in a microwave, and will keep you full all afternoon....

Focus on: “rustic”. Seriously, whoever decided to start using the word “rustic” as a synonym to “not looking too professional” has my heart forever. ❤️ Yes, I am perfectly aware of my baking limitations. The good news: this potato galette might look homemade (as opposed to looking like it was made by a famous french pastry chef), but it tastes INSANELY amazing! You gotta trust me on that! And that’s the beauty of a galette, which is another word for “rustic tart”....

It’s hard to play favourites with recipes, but if I had to, this Pumpkin, Halloumi and Avocado salad wins. And given that it’s been the most popular recipe on the blog since I first posted in over a year ago, it seems to be your favourite too.

To add more nutrition and give an extra filling to the sandwich, i use grated carrots, onions and coriander leaves. You can use any of your favorite veggies or leafy greens like lettuce, grated beets, cabbage, mint or celery. To make scrambled egg sandwich for toddlers and kids, exclude the chilies, onions and chilli powder. Serve it right away. Cooked eggs should be consumed right away for health benefits and taste....

Admittedly, the success of this dish did not come as a complete surprise to me though. The marinade here is an adaptation of my wildly popular Killer Chicken Thigh Marinade, which I can literally drink on its own. It’s that good! Similarly, it works amazingly well on slow-cooked chicken breasts. I’ve been asked for a slow cooker chicken breast recipe a number of times on this blog, so here it is, and you won’t be disappointed....

Is the weather a dominant topic of conversation where you live too? It comes up often in Wisconsin. I wonder if people in California or Florida talk about the weather with the same frequency? Can you bond over pleasant temps and abundant sunshine the way you can over frigid air and permaclouds? While I can’t give you that answer, I can say with certainty that, no matter the temperature and region, we can all unite around simple, delicious weeknight dinners such as these spaghetti squash boats with chicken and bacon (or one of these other healthy baked casserole recipes)....

About Stuffed Capsicum Also known as Bharwa Shimla Mirch, these Stuffed Capsicum make for a great side in a meal but you can also serve them for a tea time snack with a cup of your favorite tea or coffee or soup & sandwiches. Unlike the American stuffed bell peppers that are baked in oven, these are grilled or roasted in a pan on the stovetop. I use small bell peppers of different colors as they are easily available where I live....

Cranberries are one of my favorite seasonal foods during the holiday months. For many of us, cranberry sauce comes to mind (and my sugar-free cranberry sauce recipe is one of my most popular ones yet!). But there are so many other wonderful ways to use cranberries. This stuffed delicata squash recipe with beef, goat cheese, rosemary, and cranberries is a perfect example. Winter squash is not traditionally considered a low carb food, since it’s rather starchy compared to other vegetables....

I’m so glad chili season is upon us! For this chili, I used both the ROTEL chunky diced tomatoes with green chilies and the Hunt’s crushed tomatoes that I purchased at my local Walmart. ROTEL has a mild variety of that same product, so if you’re not into spicy food, just get that instead. I like using canned tomatoes because they make my life so much easier! I’m already so stressed with everything else, at least dinner making needs to be semi- therapeutic, right?...

Is there anything more luxurious than a perfectly roasted beef tenderloin? Filet mignon has always been my favorite cut of steak, but more recently, I experimented and learned how to cook beef tenderloin roast whole — and I’m in love. This beef tenderloin recipe is simple but so impressive. Everyone will be wowed! I use my favorite stovetop-to-oven method for this beef tenderloin recipe. Browning the meat on the stovetop creates a flavorful crust, while finishing it in the oven ensures that the inside remains juicy and tender....

Much like any other bakery style sponge cakes a tutti frutti cake is light, moist, airy and is also available with an egg-free option. So it is basically a sponge cake to which candied fruits are added....

I’ve been making this easy appetizer recipe since I was a new-ish college grad with minimal culinary skill and maximum desire to make friends.

While I have expanded my appetizer game to include impressive crowd-pleasers like Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms and Spinach Puffs, I still love to make this crostini recipe. It brings me tender memories, is a snap to make, and hits the spot with guests every single time....
