Chewy chocolate cookies | Gooey cookies | Christmas recipe

Hello everyone, I am posting almost after 40 days. Not that I was busy and haven't been baking all this while , I was simply being super lazy. As we are just few hours away for x-mas and I thought I must post atleast one recipe today. As the new year 2015 hits I promise to be regular and post as many post as possible.

I am doing a chewy chocolate cookies to start with. As I woke up this morning of 24th dec the weather outside was just perfect for a cup of hot chocolate milk and a chewy chocolate cookie. I so wanted to dunk myself into this chocolaty delight on this foggy and super cold winter morning.

Green Chilli Pickle

Its winters and no Indian meal is complete without a home made spicy pickle. Last Sunday for the first time i went to the local vegetable market near by. In India we call it hatt, its a weekly market, which usually sells more or less each and every item required in your daily chaos. So, while i was totally mesmerized by the freshness and the colours of the vegetables sold there and somehow i just couldn't get my eyes off this huge heap of green chilies. So i got some home and didn't really know what to do with them as i didn't want it to go bad. So, finally i decided to make a green chilly mustard pickle. This pickle is quite a staple in Assamese meals but the version i am doing has a major influence of north India.

Dal Makhani | Indian Recipe | Vegan version

As winters have just about set in, and woolens have been sunned. I am set to welcome the minimalist winters here in the southern part of my country. I miss those lovely winters of the north where you clad yourself with layers and layers of clothing. Ahhhh... Can't really get those winters here but atleast I can cook myself some favorite recipes that are especially cooked this time of the year. One of my personal favorite has to the "dal makhani".  As a child I just hated daal ( all kids that age did or still do ) until 5 years back I tasted the most amazing Dal makhani in the royal city of Jodhpur. And believe you me the taste was to die for and since than I have crazily fallen in love with that dish.. Not that I found the same taste else where but just the thought of that taste keeps my love alive for it.

Mixed herb bread

Hello everyone, here's another bread recipe for you all. The other day when I made garlic rolls I had some dough left so I decide to do another bread version there and than. I really didn't follow any recipe so I don't know what to call it. I guess I would simply call it mix herb flat bread.  Ingredients that I used was what ever I saw at that moment in front of my eyes on my spice & herb rack. But to make it's even easier I will give you the exact herbs . So go on and enjoy
