Our dinner tonight at Moe’s bbq, a hidden gem of

Our dinner tonight at Moe’s bbq, a hidden gem of Ottawa I discovered recently, turned out to be a bit disappointing today. They are famous in Ottawa for their southern style smoked beef ribs, smoked beef barbecued brisket, pulled beef & smoked brisket burgers on an outrageously flavourful bakery pretzel bun which is the highlight of all. But today they served my smoked pulled beef burger in an ordinary regular bun. When I asked them they said they don’t have the pretzel buns this time. That was so disappointing to hear. I wish they bring it back soon. But still this wouldn’t stop me from going there again coz I love everything on their menu and their flavours are unique. I still have to try their smoked beef ribs, their poutine with pulled beef/chicken, bbq sauce and cheese curds, bbq rice, etc etc. ... Theirs is the first certified halal southern style smokehouse in Ottawa. And they reign supreme with none to surpass them for their halal maple and hickory smoked bbq meats in Ottawa. It’s a small eatery but has incredibly delicious food for meat lovers. I am sure you would all love this place if you visit Ottawa. *

Plantain pieces first deep fried then sautéed wit

Plantain pieces first deep fried then sautéed with onions to make this aromatic kootu. Swipe⬅️ left to see the egg curry and the Eggplant Raita.
The egg curry made with caramelized onions & tomatoes with a hint of tamarind was left to simmer for a while with the boiled eggs to capture all the flavours. Deep fried egg plant added to flavoured yoghurt tempered with mustard seeds and curry leaves made this Raita so soothing and comforting. *

Sometimes a quick and simple wrap that you make at

Sometimes a quick and simple wrap that you make at home is more satisfying than a gourmet meal at a fancy restaurant.
A quick meal that hardly took 15 mins but so comforting and yummy!
I stuffed the rotis with tandoori chicken strips, chaat masala onion rings, radish, roasted red, orange and yellow peppers, some sweet & sour green mango juliennes - all drizzled with mayo dijon mustard sauce and seasoned with salt and pepper. So delicious! *

This chicken Maqlooba was sensationall! Roasting

This chicken Maqlooba was sensationall!
Roasting the vegetables (egg plant, potatoes and cauliflower) in the oven after brushing them with olive oil was not just a healthy option as it not only saved my time but made them look more pretty. Another key feature was flavouring the chicken with fresh ground spices, garlic crushed with cardamom, dried lemons and caramelized onions. Also the technique of browning the chicken in the oven after cooking it on the stove. All these teeny tiny details added more to the dish. *

Lamb khorma is a traditional lamb dish very popula

Lamb khorma is a traditional lamb dish very popular all over India though there are many variations of this recipe. This aloo gosth ka khorma ( Lamb potato khorma) is a typical south indian preparation made during special events and festivities especially among the muslim community. My husband loves this dish and wants me to make it in the exact traditional way without missing any ingredient even if it be the mint or hara dhania (cilantro). So delicious with just plain steamed rice and sautéed beans! *

Dalcha - a traditional one pot dish which is made

Dalcha - a traditional one pot dish which is made with meat and specific vegetables such as bottle gourd (lauki) and egg plant (baingan) especially during rainy days is best enjoyed with hot steaming rice. I like to keep it light and flavourful without making the curry too thick. Instead of adding lot of puréed dal to the curry along with the vegetables, I add crushed cooked channa dal in the end as a finishing touch just before adding the tadka (tempering). A bowl of hot steaming rice with a ladleful of this tangy dalcha is heaven to me! So delicious! *

Jerk chicken tikka kebabs! Love the jerk chicken

Brown rice Neer dosa with Ande ka salan (egg curry

Brown rice Neer dosa with Ande ka salan (egg curry) was a delectable healthy brunch to enjoy on a lazy Sunday! The Neer dosa is a Mangalorian specialty made with rice, water and coconut. There is no need to ferment the batter. You can grind the soaked rice with coconut, add water to make a thin batter and use it instantly.
As for the egg curry I made it in typical south indian style without tomatoes. The redness is from the kashmiiri chilli powder I used to give it some colour and a contrast to the Neer dosa. (No red chilli powder is used in the traditional ande ka salan). It was such a delectable brunch. Alhamdulillah! *
