I’m having a moment with mangoes. I’m going to be honest and this statement is going to be controversial, but as an Indian person, I know it’s kind of within my genes to be obsessed with mangoes, but I’m like, medium about them. I know, I know. I’m not really obsessed. I have my moments …
Time to get corny. No, not corny jokes (although I have PLENTY of those), but something deliciously corny to eat! Okay hear me out – and this is a no judgment zone, so please, no judging(!) – please tell me you’ve heard of Chi Chi’s (if you live in the States)?? You know, the super …
Everything has changed for us this year – some for the better, some for the worse. The one thing that has been a challenge for many, including myself, is the lack of travel. If you have the opportunity and are privileged enough to live a life where you can freely travel, then you likely understand …
Watch out Milk Bar. There is a new Cake Truffle in town – and she’s sassy, sweet, decadent, and VEGAN. So believe it or not, this recipe is actually an accident! I set out to my a cake for myself to celebrate the launch of…. my appearance on Quibi‘s Dishmantled! And WHY am I celebrating?! …
Do you ever just crave something creamy, indulgent, and sweet, but guilt-free?! Well, welcome to everyday of Chef Priyanka! There are very few products in the marketplace that are good for you AND good for the environment, but So Delicious is one of them! I have been consuming their delish products (see what I did …
Do you ever just wake up with a sudden sweet craving and in your mind you’re screaming “I WANT EFFING PANCAKESSS & WAFFLES AND SYRUP DRIPPING EVERYWHERE” – and I ain’t talking about Jack Johnson’s banana pancakes (get those white boy pancakes outta here). This is exactly what happened to me this morning – heck, …
Clarified Butter. It’s all the rage in the states now, ehem all the rage among white people ehem, but us brown folk have been clarified butter, or Ghee for thousands of years. It’s a staple in Indian cooking and likely in any Indian household. But why all the rage now over clarified butter? Have Westerners …
I’m coo coo for coconuts! Pretty sure I’ve said that in several other posts, but if I haven’t then let the world know – I am definitely coo coo for coconuts! I can’t stress enough how creative Indian people are with food. By that I mean, the way in which ingredients are used. Indians have …
Ahh Chai – probably the most interpreted beverage globally (notice, I intentionally left out the “mis”). Chai is a milk-based tea drink with hints of cinnamon, clove, pepper, cardamom, and ginger. And its generally served very sweet in India – we like our sweets and drinks diabetic-ally sweet ;). As you know, I’ve been creating …
Us FOBs LOVE our peanuts. I don’t think many people here (i.e., in America) know that Indians love cooking with and eating peanuts. Most Indian food in restaurants is North Indian or Punjabi – they don’t cook with peanuts a lot. But us Southies cook with peanuts in a bunch of different ways! Snacks, sauces, …
