Baked – Spicy coated mixed nuts (Zero Oil)


Coated nuts final

About:

My dad was a foodie and he was crazy on fried goodies and so as coated peanuts. Thatz how this coated nuts came in to thought. So thanks to my dad god for bringing all thoughts in me and making me do what am doing today.

Here in this recipe I used Almonds, Pecan nuts, Walnuts, Pistachios and coated it with gram flour, rice flour and spiced using green chills. Used curry leaves for the flavour so coating with flours helps to form a crispy coating on the nuts after baking.

This portable snack mix is prefect for tailgating or holiday entertaining.

Yields: 2 cups

I 2 (Indo – Italian) : Capsicum paneer pasta with Basil and Parsley


 

Pasta panner parsley basil final

About:

This is a delicious pasta with the fusion recipe I tried to cook pasta in capsicum paneer masala gravy. Made few variations in gravy by adding basil and parsley and tried to make this as indo-italian version.

Basil and parsley add Italian taste to pasta and paneer and capsicum gravy adds indian touch in this recipe.

Health benefits of basil:

Basil (known as tulsi in Hindi) has been used for centuries in Ayurveda, a traditional Indian system of medicine, as a treatment for gastric, hepatic, respiratory and inflammatory disorders as well as a remedy for headache, fever, anxiety, convulsions, nausea and hypertension.

Do try this variation with your favourite veggies and spices.
