The English version of our very own Indian Dosa is what I would want to call it -Crepes. A good way to begin your day, an easy brunch for those lazy days, an evening snack or even a relishing dinner - the way you like with the filling of your choice.  We chose to have it as our Saturday Brunch! The first time I heard of crepes..hmm..Of course from my husband!! Heard, may the wrong word. He 'made' it for me on our second Valentines day together!! What fascinates me about crepes is the choice of filling you possibly can have. While we chose Jam, you may opt for anything from Honey to Nutella if you want it sweet. As a savory dish, you can choose any fillings of veggies or meat and roll it up. Also, this could turn into a perfect snack for your kids tiffin box:) Get innovative with crepes - roll it up and slice it or stack it and serve with fresh fruits and glimmer of honey. I am sure kids and adults will enjoy every bite of it. So here we go -  In

Beetroot Cutlet makes me quite nostalgic. My earliest memory of this dish is when I made it in Class 9 for a proficiency badge in Guides movement. For those of you who are not familiar with the Scouts and Guides association, it is a movement to develop the young boys and girls as responsible citizens which may not be achieved through civic education alone. You need to cross various stages and tests to be eligible for the Rashtrapati Award.

It was my mother’s suggestion that I try this recipe which she had noted down in her diary sometime back. The examiner being a vegetarian and a foodie loved it and I landed the proficiency badge. The second story dates to my PG days in Bangalore. My room mates had gone home for the weekend and I was left alone in the PG with nothing better to do. I thou

Egg curry ,egg roast and egg burji is a common dinner recipe for us. It was time to try something new. And that is how the idea of omelette curry struck! I remember my mom making this a long time ago and I think it is quite unique. Having a boiled egg in the curry is usual but having an omelette in there is fun:) Trust me when I say this! We were to have guests over for dinner on Friday night and when I suggested omelette curry, my husband was a little skeptical. He presumed that it would be like normal egg curry just that the boiled egg was replaced by omelette. What if it looked a little too common?  Despite this, he let me have my way. Lo and behold, I made my omelette curry! I have tried this one another time, but did not succeed in wrapping up the omelette in such a way that it held its shape together. And this time I got it right. So here goes the recipe relished by everyone who had it. The trick here is getting your omelette cooked and wrapped the right
