Capsicum Cottage Cheese Medley
Add to favourites

This simple and delicious recipe can be made yummier by doubling up the quantity of cooking oil and using no water at all. Cover and cook the masala mixture to accentuate the flavours of the capsicum / bell peppers. The recipe calls for only 1 green and red bell pepper (half of each), but the quantity can be increased to a total of 2 and you can add yellow peppers too.

Chicken Peanut Stew
Add to favourites

This stew is very filling and easy to make. The flavour of peanuts blends beautifully with the sourness of the tamarind. After the initial prep and the first 10 mins of cooking, this stew can be left to simmer on its own. The secret to this recipe's success is its slow cooking - sometimes I let it cook for more than an hour.

Malai Kofta is a creamy, mildly spiced Indian delicacy – fried potato and cottage cheese dumplings covered in a thick spice-based gravy through which individual flavours reveal themselves very subtly. Prepared on special occasions, like Diwali and Holi, Malai Kofta is best enjoyed with hot naan. Chef Danish Ashraf, Executive Sous Chef at the Renaissance Convention Centre Hotel, Mumbai -- who specializes in Modern European Cuisine -- shared this recipe along with tips to create that perfect gravy.

This recipe is from the kitchen of Mrs. Inder Grewal. It was a pleasure to watch her cook the rajma at her own leisurely pace (watch the video!). I suggest a similar disposition while cooking this. Don't try to hurry it - the final result is well worth the wait.
