Simply microwave them briefly and then bake them in a hot oven. They will satisfy the need for a salty, savory snack. These delicious fries are one of my favorite side dishes. While not exactly the same as French fries, they are delightful when served with ketchup or any other dip. To ensure they bake evenly, I first microwave them briefly to slightly soften them. This helps prevent them from remaining crunchy after they’ve been baked....
Bisi bele bath is a wholesome South Indian (Karnataka) dish made of a special spice combination with rice and lentils (toor dal).

Are they a cookie or a pastry? The jury is out on that one. Palmiers, also known as elephant ears due to their distinctive shape, are a type of French pastry made from puff pastry dough that is rolled, sugared, and baked into a crispy, caramelized, heart-shaped cookie. Palmiers are usually made with only 2 ingredients – puff pastry and sugar but you can add in all kinds of flavourings....
Because this dessert was meant for a birthday , I thought it will look lovely as cake and slices. Generally Indian Milk cake made with just few ingredients like Milk, sugar and Nuts, but here I made space for Chocolate and Rose syrup in this milk cake. Since I prepared Kesar Kalakand in M/W more than three years ago, and the thought was always hovering since that time… I also mentioned this in that post “This receipe is obviously very traditional, but I want to try it out one day by adding chocolate giving this authentic sweet a complete make over....

The leftovers keep well in the fridge for several days, and can be quickly reheated in the microwave. I love dips! I enjoy sour cream dip, cream cheese dip, and Greek yogurt dip. But when I want something extra creamy and cheesy, I make this spinach artichoke dip. The combination of vegetables, garlic, sour cream, and parmesan is delightful. It’s an easy recipe, too. Once you defrost the spinach and chop the artichokes, all you have to do is mix everything in a bowl, transfer the mixture to a baking dish, and bake....

Ready in about 30 minutes, it’s one of my favorite recipes to make on a busy weeknight when pressed for time. I made this recipe for the first time because I had no choice.

So I thought, how bad could it be - chicken cooked in olive oil with onions, mushrooms, and sour cream?...

For perfectly crispy results, set the oven temperature to 400°F and bake the bacon for 20 minutes in the middle of the oven. I haven’t pan-fried bacon in years! Perhaps it makes sense to pan-fry it if you only need a few slices. But for anything more than that, the oven is the best and easiest method. When prepared this way, the bacon cooks evenly and comes out perfect - not too chewy or crispy....
If you want them to peel easily, you should use old eggs. The closer they are to their expiration date, the easier it will be to peel them. Hard-boiled eggs are a great snack, but peeling them is one of those theoretically easy tasks that can easily go wrong. And when it does, you’re left with deformed eggs, big chunks of the whites coming off as you try to peel them....
As long as you have canned salmon and eggs, you can whip them up anytime. The remaining ingredients are flexible.

I make these delicious patties about once a week. They are easy to make, taste great, and - just as important - I always have the essential ingredients on hand and can improvise on the rest....
