4 Indian Comfort foods for the monsoon

 

If you are still pondering over what to make, then you can still go ahead and indulge in some of these comfort food.

1. Soup – Sorry we are not going to talk about how healthy it is. When you are staying indoors during the rains, a bowl of piping hot soup can elevate your soul.

2. Kadak chai: On a rainy evening, a cup of adrak pudina chai (ginger mint tea) is perfect. If you love to be outdoors, go for a ride to soak in the rains and then stop at a roadside tea stall to have your share of cuppa.

3. Chips and Dip – Yes, easy to make and great to have on a rainy day. Curl up with a book and savor your chips with a cheesy dip. Or better still pick up your favourite DVD and then enjoy the movie with your fill of chips and dip. Well, this is not the time to think about dieting. But don’t make it a daily affair.

4. Pakodas: Nothing can beat the joy of having pakodas during the rainy season. Choose from onion, potato, green chilly, paneer pakodas and enjoy the ‘fried’ fare. Once in a while you can definitely indulge.
And if you are one of those persons who love their share of sweet fare, then go for a ‘sizzling’ brownie with chocolate sauce.

Chicken Rajpipla – A Unique Royal Indian Recipe

Image
  Chicken Rajpipla is a unique recipe that comes from Rajpipla, a small town on the banks of the Narmada river in Gujarat. Very close to the Statue of Unity. Rajpipla was a 13 Gun Salute princely state from the 14th century to when it was integrated with the Indian republic in 1948. In the modern era, Rajpipla came into focus with the ascension of Maharaja Vijaysinhji ChhatraSinhji Sahib to the throne in 1915. He was a charming and suave ruler, also known for his great administration. He was a fond equestrian and well known for his love for horses, food, and the good life. His horses won the Indian Derby, the Irish Derby, and the Belgian Grand Prix. But his shining moment was winning the prestigious Epsom Derby in England in 1934 with his horse Windsor Lad. Maharaja Vijaysinhji was also fond of cooking and his most popular recipe was the Chicken Rajpipla. I’d first come across this recipe when I was interacting with Nilufer Dhondy, a fabulous cook who specialises in Parsi food. Though

Or is it a license to gawk at bowls, plates and cups, thinking of props and stopping at random places to look at discarded pieces of wood that can be used as a rustic background for your images?
