I’m always on the hunt for great Indian recipes. I love Indian food and have dreams of recreating dishes that I enjoy at my usual Indian spots. Sometimes I get things right but oftentimes the results fall short. I’m guessing because I’m too lazy to grind my own spices and such [...]
One of my food crushes (who doesn’t come up often here) is Marcus Samuelsson. I first learned about Marcus while living in NYC and watching the Today Show. I then had the opportunity to work (briefly) at the PR company that represented him at the time. Through that experience I was [...]
I just realized that we are well into the new year and I haven’t posted a single recipe. I’ve been cooking but making a lot of old favourites and I’m trying to be more economical and structuring my meals and time differently. I typically cook every night and eat the leftovers for [...]
I’m forever looking for yummy Indian recipes, particularly curries. A few months ago I wrote about a great recipe for Goan-Style Shrimp Curry but I can’t pass up more delicious recipes in the same vain! I was browsing Epicurious when I came across this recipe for Shrimp Madras.
It sounded simple enough [...]
Another Thursday, another Barefoot Bloggers post. This one comes courtesy of Ellyn at Recipe Collector and Taster.
I have to say that this recipe was beyond easy. Like make it in 15 minutes easy. As in barely requires any cooking easy. My food plans totally went awry last night. I had planned [...]

The other day I was feeling kind of guilty about my [...]
So one of the best things that I’ve discovered so far during my cleanse is that Thai food fits within the parameters of what I can eat! I mean, they use a lot of rice noodles, not a lot of dairy, I can request dishes sans eggs and tofu and the rest is pretty [...]
I recently acquired a copy of Veganomicon by Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Terry Hope Romero. It’s a really fun vegan 300+ page cookbook that has a lot of really interesting vegan recipes. What I love about veganomicon is that the focus isn’t on making meaty recipes vegan but still keeping a [...]
I’m fascinated with Indian food. I fully admit it. It may even be my favourite food right now. It’s not that I even go out for Indian food that often, I probably have been to an Indian restaurant for at least 6 months. It’s more that there’s something about Indian food that makes [...]
So after my not so pleasant Vegetable Curry effort I figured I should go ahead and restore my faith in Madhur Jaffrey. I made this recipe once before with disastrous results, completely my fault. As you can see the recipe calls for a green chile, well when I first made it I [...]
