Palak Tofu and Palak Paneer with added nutrition of Mom's love.Paneer Versus Tofu Nutrition Analysis.

" You should serve your mother,then your mother,then your mother,and then your father ".(A simple hadith[Saying of Prophet Muhammad(pbuh)] that speaks volumes about mother's importance) Mom's have a special place in our hearts and deserve immense respect for their unconditional love and endurance.Never realized a mother's job can be so challenging until I became a mother myself.Motherhood requires lot of patience for raising a child right from the pain of birth ,changing countless diapers,the prayers and sleepless nights when you are sick and tolerating those toddler tantrums and teen angst.As our first teacher ,moms help us learning the first words,take the first steps and first lessons in manners that eventually shape our future.Moms stand by you through every thick and thin of our life.Did I miss something,Yes! its mom who makes the best meals.Nothing like warm home made food made with added nutrition of Mother's love. My Ammi is a master cook besides be

Vegan Mushroom Quesadillas

Quesadillas just isn’t Quesadillas unless it’s smothered in cheese.Would you believe if i said that these quesadillas were tasteful even without a speck of cheese? the luscious healthful guacamole makes up for the creamy texture of cheese and the meaty mushrooms make a fulfilling Quesadillas.To say the least these are sure to be any health nut's cherished meal. The brilliant recipe comes from Lisa's Vegetarian kitchen ,being Tried and Tasted this month.Aparna of My diverse Kitchen hosts this month Tried and tasted event. Ingredients 3 cups(about 6 ounce) mushrooms,choose the meaty kind like button or shiitake mushrooms 1 medium onion,sliced 1 small tomato,chopped 2 small green chillies or Jalapeno peppers,chopped 1 big garlic clove, finely minced 2 tablespoons of parsley or cilantro, chopped 1/4 teaspoon turmeric 1/2 teaspoon chili powder or freshly ground black pepper 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil or vegetable oil 4 medium corn or wheat tort

Kumquat Ice Cream - I Scream For Ice Cream Challenge.And Ice Dream Cook Book Give Away

Been yearning to taste this delight ever since bookmarked last summer.With right ingredients in hand and the ambiance warm enough,finally got the chance to contain the desire. Eralda's original recipe of the ice cream follows David lebovitz's approach ,while my recreation here is influenced by the by Rachel Albert-Matesz's dairy free recipes from her latest book, The Ice Dream Cookbook ,replacing heavy cream with coconut milk.Smitten by the superb benefits of coconut,all of my home made ice creams now incorporate coconut milk for dairy cream. Besides the coconut milk,the other supreme element in the ice cream are Kumquats.I always keep an eye out for unusually healthy foods,glad I noticed kumquats in a market here.Kumquats are like the concentrated mini oranges or clementines with edible peel.But if these tangy little morsels are not in your reach,you could still make the ice cream,simply substitute them with some fresh orange zest and orange juice instead. Recipe : Dair

Bitter Better Health - Methi(fenugreek) Soy Vegetable Cutlets

Bitter foods may not be pleasing to your palate.But the impressive health profile of some kinds of bitter foods might just want you to give them a try.Strangely,bitter foods were considered poisonous and not consumable for long.Until recently medical studies have shown some can offer amazing health boosts ,including prevention and fighting diseases.Read more about the studies here and here . Fortunately for me,bitter wasn't an alienated taste,some like bitter gourd and fenugreek were pleasantly familiar in mom's cooking. Tips on making the bitter more palatable : * Make the start with more commonly available ,like black coffee,cocoa and extra dark chocolate. * Balance the taste ,pair them with other mildly flavored fruits,nuts and vegetables to balance the unpleasant taste.For instance cooking bitter gourd\melon with onions can help even the bitterness.And Spinach with mustard greens worked perfectly in the ever so popular North India's favorite green side dish . * Use th

Ladies Fingers(Okra) fries

I like the name ladies fingers better than okra.It rightly describes the delicate yet enduring feminine nature that's so eminent in the wonder vegetable.The stir fried ladies finger is the one the most tasty side dish with warm roti that mom used to make for breakfast.For some reason I still could not replicate the taste of mom's stir-fry,could be the quality of the vegetable here,usually over grown and not so juicy as the ones I tasted back home. This baked okra fries is perfect with the fresh large size Okra that is more common here.The warm fries with hot cuppa chai is a promising combo snack sure to brighten the dull cold evenings. Recipe : Baked Spicy Lady's fingers(Okra) Fries Ingredients 1/2 pound Fresh Okra 1/2 teaspoon hot chili powder 1/4 teaspoon each of ground cumin and coriander Pinch of turmeric 1/2 teaspoon sea salt 3 teaspoon Canola oil or extra virgin olive oil Method Rinse the okra in cold water and pat dry with a kitchen towel or allow to
