Tacos just got an Indian makeover! I made this dip using hung curd and paneer, along with roasted garlic, black pepper and salt. The filling used some boiled and mashed kidney beans and crushed paneer (roasted with spices). The taco was made using maize flour. It is called makke ki roti in India. I used it as a soft shell taco. And as usual, the taco is filled with stuffing, dip and salad to be enjoyed warm on a chilly winter evening.

It’s mango season! We bought some the other day and they weren’t as sweet as we expected. So, I ground the pulp with mint, sage, garlic, ginger and chillies, added salt, sugar and lemon juice to bring out the taste. Simple dip/chutney to repurpose not so tasty mangoes.

This is tori or ridge gourd. A light summer vegetable that is easy to digest and cook. Simply perl and cut inch long pieces. Heat oil in a pot, add a tablespoon of poppy seeds. Add tori pieces along with thinly sliced onions. Add salt, turmeric and chilli powder. Cook on high while turning occasionally. It leaves a lot of water. Allow to cook on low flame after 10 minutes. You may cover and cook to speed up the cooking. Serve with ghee and rice. Enjoy!
