Spring in a bowl!

While describing a dish she had in F9, Priya use this phrase, and it hasn’t left my mind since then. And she promptly forgot the name of the dish, thus eliminating our chances of finding out what it is, and exposing us to a lifetime of experimentation with all the dishes on their menu.

Since then , I’ve been imagining how spring in a bowl would taste like, and what ingredients would go into it. Last night as I was returning from office, all tired and worn out , wondering what to eat for dinner, this phrase sprang up in my mind. En route home, I stopped at a grocery store, and picked up the veggies that I thought would create spring in my bowl.

Spaghetti alla Puttanesca!


Hehehe. I just love it when I can give such fancy names to my dishes, especially if I don’t have to work at creating such fancy names… ;-)
Imagine the flavours of olives, capers, garlic and smoked tomatoes in your mouth. Now imagine a meal out of these. Yes, it is that yummm…

Pair it with some red wine, and enjoy!

One love… Garlic bread!

 

Is there anyone under this big, bright, beautiful, blue sky who doesn’t love Garlic bread? One person? Show me one person who doesn’t and I’ll make him a convert. :-D

I was lost in this big world of numerous garlic bread choices, wondering which one to make my favourite, and then my dear friend, Nandita told me how to make my own garlic bread. Its the simplest ever method to make your own garlic bread, though not from scratch.
