Halloween Stuffed Peppers


These are my favorite way of having colourful peppers and if you try it, I am sure it will be your favorite too.

Stuffing:

1/2 cup Carrot, peas, paneer and corn pulao

2 cubes Grated cheese 

2 Bell peppers.

2 tsp Oil


Slice the top off and remove the inside seed part. Make eyes nose & mouth for the theme.


Lightly oil the peppers and bake for 10 minutes in preheated oven @ 180°C.


Put semi cooked pulao into the pepper cavities.


Top with grated cheese. 


Cover with chopped top part of peppers.


Again bake for 15-20 minutes at same temperature.


Yum peppers are ready to serve.


Tip: stuffing can be of your choice, for example; veggies/ chicken/ eggs or paneer. Once I stuffed with soya flakes sauted with onion, carrot and tofu cubes to make it vegan.

Thank you 😀

Shahi Chana Masala biryani


As i was going through some ideas to make a special biryani, I realised that Chana Masala biryani was the most mouthwatering idea which everyone in my family wanted to have. 

So went with the idea and prepared this most amazingly flavourful and delicious rice preparation.

I made this with an idea to feed at least 6 people and trust me only four of us finished it and we were still ready to have some more.

This recipe requires less fat and that's the reason, even after addition of chole chana, this biryani was not heavy on stomach. Happy cooking!!

OnePot Peas and Kaju Pulao Recipe



We all love to enjoy Pulaos and biryanis, but many of us avoid making them at home as it takes lot of time. I like to make my Pulaos and Biryanis as simple as possible, I  also like to make in traditional manner, if I have planned ahead and assembled all dry ingredients, so I can put it together the next day in lesser amount of time. 

I am Sure you all will agree with me when I say that, we all need a short cut method for all our traditional recipes. And this one is that short cut method for a rich pulao recipe.

Cashews are incredibly versatile dry fruit that can be made savory or sweet. Add a few Cashews to any of you recipes and the dish becomes richer and Classier.

I add them to almost all Pulao recipes, be it Bisibelabhat or lemon rice. This is a very easy onepot recipe that can be had as full meal or serve it with side dishes like; Raithas, pickles and papdams.
