My year in food 2023: Tasty


I began cooking when I was in law school. The skills helped me tremendously when I moved to the Netherlands to complete my Masters. The aroma of the spices and the beauty in the hues of the food that I prepared inspired me to click photos. I began exploring various cuisines especially when I moved abroad for work. Multitudes of food bloggers and vloggers motivated me to try new recipes. I began developing my own unique recipes being inspired by the resources online. I realised that my gastronomical interests were worth pursuing as my family, friends and I began loving the food that I prepared. In 2023, I tried various recipes. The focus was on north-Indian, Italian and Indo-English cuisines. I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed the process as well as the food. It was calming and comforting. I hope to share one unique recipe per week from 2024. 

Here are the links for some of the food that I prepared this year along with comments:

  1. Paneer Jalfrezi Vegetables can be tasty
  2. Aglio E Olio One of the best Pastas I've ever had
  3. Cauliflower Jalfrezi Unique
  4. Matar Paneer Magic of spices
  5. Kadai Paneer Nice 
  6. Rajma Masala Comfort food
  7. Vegan cake chocolates my favourite
  8. Khichdi Bengali style

Happy New Year all! I hope you all have a great year with good food, brilliant books and lots of stamina to achieve your goals. Try these recipes out and let me know how it tasted.

My Year in books 2023--memorable journey

  I managed to read 18 books in 2023. Overall, it was an enthralling and magical experience. I almost lived with the characters in these books and in the places narrated. I read regularly back in school. Over the past few years, my interests were varied. I spent most of my time working. Health, wellness and music occupied most of my free-time. It was in 2022 that I began reading again. Being environed by readers, I picked up Sooley. I read a bit and moved to complete my lifetime favourite "The Class" by Erich Segal. It was the right book at the right time. It inspired hope and strength in me when I needed it the most. Ever since, there has been no looking back. I picked up one book after another. My schedule didn't permit me to read more than 18 books. But, I must say that I enjoyed each of the books. Hope to make more time for books in the coming year.  A few words on the ones that I read in 2023 1. John Grisham's  Sooley   Heart touching  2. Bill Bryson's...

Books are a great way to escape into another world. The joy of swimming through a good book is something only book lovers can vouch for. Travel books proffer an experience that is very close to getting transported to another world. In fact, it's much better than watching travel shows, although you can combine ...

Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice: Unputdownable

At the very beginning, the book transports us to Hertfordshire. The rapture in the Bennet household in Hertfordshire ensnares the readers. This is what makes the novel one of the best classics. The novel is about the Bennet family and Mrs Bennet’s sole aim to get her daughters settled in marriage with wealthy families.  Mr. and Mrs. Bennet have five daughters, all good-looking and endearing. Not having a male heir means the property will fall into the hands of a distant male heir. Unfortunately, this leaves the future of the five daughters to fate. The arrival of the wealthy and charming Mr. Bingley into the neighbourhood pulls up the hopes of Mrs. Bennet as she perceives him to be the perfect match for one of her daughters. Their acquaintance blossoms over time and Mr. Bingley develops fondness for one of the daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Bennet.
