Sharing my love for making quick & yummy food on a typical workday and then spending a few minutes to dress it up for my own photographs :)
After a real long delay, I finally thought it was time that I set this up and share with everyone. I love food and I love to make my very own, rather than eat out. I love to eat and love to make. And now I thought I'd share it out in the open, so someone can try it out if they wish to or just take a peek. Either way, this page is going to be an archive of what I have prepared so far and what I'll

101. Raw Courgette Noodles with Basil Pesto
One of the most easiest dishes that you could ever prepare. Particularly enjoyable if you are a vegan/vegetarian and/or a "healthy food" freak.. All you do is make pesto by processing basil leaves, pine nuts, garlic cloves, black pepper and olive oil. Mix it with some freshly julienned courgette and enjoy :)

98. Roast Potato Salad
A simple roast potato salad to kick off a long void. Will keep trying to add as and when possible. Note that all these recipes are quick and easy; they can be prepared by anyone and everyone. No cooking skills are a prerequisite for this :)
Directions:
1. Boil the halved/quartered potatoes in salted water for about 5 mins
2. Drain the water and grill the potatoes in a preheated oven @ 200 degrees for about 15mins. Spray some olive oil before grilling so you get a crispier texture on top
3. After you take them out of the oven, toss them with sundried tomatoes, diced olives, spring onions, pepper and lime juice. Easy peesy :)

95. Beetroot Risotto garnished with Parmesan
A really simple dish that can be done in no time in a pressure cooker. Just add risotto rice with about 500ml of Sauvingon Blanc and some water in a pressure cooker and cook until the cooker blows the whistle a couple of times. Turn the stove off and once it's ready to open, add to it some pan fried very finely diced beetroot, tempered with mustard seeds and black pepper. Add some salt to taste and top the dish off with parmesan cheese.. Voila !! Ready to be served with any side dish of your choice :)
