Orange Pulao Rice – Vegan


Orance rice

About:

This pulao is simple, rich and flavourful. The rice is cooked in orange juice, coconut milk with indian spices which is aromatic and has a sweet and tangy tones. Just to keep it simple I haven’t used any veggies in this pulao however can be included if desired. Adding nuts adds rich and nutty taste to the dish.

I cooked this pulao in a pot but this can be pressure cooked as well.

This dish can be served for breakfast or packed lunch with a side dish (Baby potato gravy)/yogurt dips

Mint cashew pesto


Mint Cashew pesto

About:

This is a delicious savoury mint pesto with cahews!  I love this pesto!  It is so perfect for a summer sandwich/salads/pasta.

The mint adds a hint of freshness to this pesto.

This really goes for any dish. Feel free to add a bit more olive oil if the pesto is too dry or more salt and pepper if needed.  I made our favorite pasta (spinach pasta) and tossed together the pasta, pesto and some reserved cooking water. I topped the pasta with a sprinkle of mozerella cheese. It was divine. Simple and delicious.
