Egg Potato ki Sabji/Stir fry

This is my most favourite dish which I have relished since I was a 5 year old kid. This is special and close to my heart dish, since it is my dad's recipe and this was staple meal for us every sat. Extremely easy and tasty. Perfect with some simple rice and dal/lentils.  Lets see how its done. 
Ingredients: 
  • 1 big potato cut and boiled
  • 3 to 4 eggs boiled, peeled
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2-3 Green chillies slit
  • 1 tsp Mustard seeds 
  • 1 tsp urad dal (optional)
  • 1/2 tsp Turmeric Powder
  • 1 tsp chilli powder (or as per preference)
  • Salt as per taste 
  • Cooking oil 2-3 Tbsp
  • Coriander Handful for garnish 
Method: 
  1. Cut the potato and boil it in some water. Make sure its 95 %cooked. 
  2. Once its done, drain the water and keep aside. 
  3. Also boil eggs until hard boiled. Peel, cut the eggs & keep aside
  4. Take a kadai or wok, add oil. Once the oil is hot add in the mustard seeds and let them splutter. Add in the Urad dal (optional) and wait for it to change colour.
  5. At this stage add in the chopped onions and slit green chillies and saute well
  6. Once they change colour add in turmeric powder, chilli powder along with salt to taste 
  7. Saute well for about 1 min or until the raw smell of the masala's go away 
  8. Add in the boiled potatoes, give it a nice stir until all the masala and potatoes are well combined
  9. Add in the cut boiled eggs and slowly mix everything together. 
  10. Garnish with coriander and serve hot with Rice and dal 
Notes: 
  • I prefer boiling the potatoes and adding. You can add in just like that and cook it. But the taste will be bit different. 
  • You can choose to boil it as a whole and then cut it as well. Make sure to not cook it too much. I prefer cut and boil because then you can control on how much to cook.
  • If the potatoes become mushy and do not hold a proper shape then the taste changes a bit.

Easy Sambar (without tamarind)

Sambar is a must in most south Indian families and like others even I have grown up having dosa- sambhar and chutney's. A Sambar is a lentil based vegetable stew or curry cooked with dal/lentils along with some veggies and some tamarind pulp. There are coconut based sambar as well and each region has its own sambar variation. In my house, we all prefer quick meals, but yet tasty. My mother who was a working lady would make elaborate meals only during holidays or special occasions. Rest all the meals would be quick yet very very tasty. This is one such sambar which my mom has taught me and is super quick.  This doesn't use tamarind like in a traditional sambar and gets its tangy flavour from tomatoes. Its quick, one pot sambar recipe. Lets dive in and see how its done: Ingredients: Serves 3 1/2 to 1 cup Tur Dal/ Yellow Lentils 2-3 tomatoes chopped (depending on size) 1/2 cup Veggies each of your choice cubed Turmeric powder A pinch of Asafoetida/ Hing 1/2 tsp chilli powder Salt

Home-Made Nuts Powder

Home-Made Nuts powder is something which I have been making since Jeremy was a 9 month old. Initially to introduce nuts, I used to powder each nut separately (one day each) and mix with every food. As he grew older I realized he hates whole nuts especially Almonds and Pistachios. Cashews are still ok with him provided they are salted ones. But still he wasn't consuming much. Thats when I decided to continue making the essential and important nut powder. He hates the fact that nuts or chunky powder has been added and just rejects the whole meal even though its tasty and likes it. But this fine nut powder is a winner and I add it up in almost everything on a daily basis.  So this nut powder is perfect for fussy kid like mine or if you just wanna introduce nuts to your kids diet, this is a good solution. Its pretty simple and fuss free.   The powder is suitable for babies over 8 months, but before you feed this to your baby, make sure that baby has already tried the powdered version o
