Since we have moved to Bangkok I never got an opportunity to use my appam pan, mainly because it wasn't induction friendly and I don't have a gas stove in here. With endless google searches I finally found a product which can help me use all the utensils which aren't induction friendly. More info you can find in  Here . Also I would like to update, these induction disc converters were like a big savior for me since most of the stuff we cook back home were not induction friendly utensils and I bought them here since they were partners with me for a long time; I just didn't feel like leaving them behind.  Well, so like I said I couldn't use my appam pans in here and hence when I started using it, I thought of various things which I can cook in them. I had already made Unniappams, Paniyarams which I have not documented yet (will do soon). Anyway so while searching for appam pan recipes, my search ended Here  (as of now) and decided to make thi...

Since the lockdown, demand for evening snacks has increased, well at least in my house and more than the hunger its demand for new, special & interesting dishes. I am sure this is going on in every household and we all are pretty bored with the usual food we make. Here's a dish which is a very simple recipe with basic ingredients yet something interesting. I like to call it Indian style savory tart or katori Sandwich😁. It is very easy to make and tasty.   I have made a basic sandwich filling with chicken, eggs, veggies and mayo. You can make any filling of your choice and add. I have baked the Tarts/ katori as well as fried them (Images Below). Both came out perfectly right. You can bake or fry as you prefer. The below measurements will make up to 15 Tarts/ katori's. If you have the filling leftover you can refrigerate it for later use and make sandwiches.  You can check out other snack recipes HERE . Lets see how its done.  Step by Step images are given below...

Easter is almost here and as usual we all will be planning on what special to be made this year. Well, some awesome dishes on your way to brighten up your Easter day!!  First the classic cutlets which every christian house would make for any festivity. This is a must in our household before Easter or Christmas. And we always make it in bulk and freeze them so we can have this heavenly dish again & again. This freezes well up-to 2 months.
