A scrumptious recipe from the Chettiar community in Tamil Nadu which can be found in Madhur Jaffrey’s ” Flavours of India”. Ideally you need to start the day before as the chicken needs to marinate for a minimum of 3-4 hours, but preferably overnight. It is usually served with rice but an Indian bread is also fine.
This is a recipe for cauliflower i could happily eat most days. Its from “Weligama”, a book of recipes from Sri Lanka, by Emily Dobbs. You can use a Romanesco head instead of the cauliflower if wished.
A variation is to make cauliflower spiced rice. Whizz all the ingredients apart from the herbs and nuts in a blender and cook by tossing in hot oil. Serve as an alternative to rice.
I love eggs with tomatoes and many countries have recipes for them that would be traditionally served at breakfast time with bread such as the middle eastern Shakshuka and Mexican Huevos Rancheros. While i sometimes have them for brunch i like to serve them as a supper dish with some oven roasted chips.
This version is an old Parsi recipe from ” Made in India” by Meera Sodha.
