Veg Kurma


Pumpkin soya final

About:

It is a dish originating in Asia consisting of vegetables braised in a spiced sauce made with yogurt, cream, nut or seed paste. I used a blend of nuts and seeds with Coconut milk.

How does a warm and creamy squash curry sound to you right now? Good, right?! This vegan curry is made with rich coconut milk and infused with enough spices to make your tongue tingle. It’s the kind of dish that makes you look forward to dinner all day long. This is a hearty and vegan dish. Perfect for a chilly winter afternoon/night.

It’s worth going to the trouble of toasting and grinding your own spices, I think. The aromas and flavors of freshly-ground spices really punch up the whole dish

Rosemary-Pistachio Spread/Dip


Pista Rosemary dip1

About:

This healthy, delicious dip/spread is made with olive oil, low-fat Greek yogurt that’s been infused with fresh garlic and rosemary and puréed until it’s smooth and creamy. It can be easily dressed up by topping it with a handful of toasted nuts.

It’s also good as a spread for sandwiches or burgers. The pistachio add a little crunchy element that is missing from a lot of dips. A fresh rosemary gave a really nice Mediterranean taste and I actually found it better than the usual recipe.

I used this spread for making Indo-Italian Tacos (Recipe click here)
