Bread Upma

Bread Upma is a simple breakfast or snack recipe which can be prepared very easily and made in minutes.



This version is lot healthier as I used wheat bread to make this. If you/your kids don’t like wheat bread we can just use white bread.This upma is a simple snack or breakfast with South Indian touch.

Mango CheeseCake



Mango CheeseCake is always fantasized me as I didn’t have it anywhere. So I was wondering how it could taste. This is my first trial of a cheesecake and it came out so well. As the season of mango is in and I am all set that I made this dessert.



My love for mango cannot be frazzled enough and tried this scrumptious cake which tasted so heavily. This recipe doesn't require any baking.

Its light silky texture, smooth creamy is fun to make and tastes so delicious which impresses everyone and everyone will surly ask for another lovely bite!!

Strawberry Choco Chips Muffins



Strawberry picking season has begun!! Last weekend we went for strawberry picking and wanted to do something with all the strawberries, seriously these strawberries were so fresh, juicy and craved to bake something right away after returning from picking. So last Saturday evening after picking baked these Delicious Muffins!! 



Strawberry and Choco Chips go so well in muffins. They tasted so yummy where the strawberries made the muffins moist and the chocolate chips gave sweet taste. We loved these Muffins!!

Andhra Fish Curry | Fish Iguru | Chepala Iguru


This Fish Curry tastes so delicious. This is my mom’s recipe and I used to have this curry a lot of times when I was kid.



This curry is a different variety which is rich, mildly spiced gravy with handpicked spices added in prefect proportions to recreate truly authentic Fish Curry. When Fresh or live fish is not available we can use Fillets. I usually use fillets for making this curry as we need to drive many miles to get fresh fish.

Fish Iguru tastes totally different from Fish Curry.

A big Hug to my lovely hubby who helps me in my cooking and tasting all my dishes!!!

Huge thanks to each and every one of you for giving me all the support and encouragement that has kept me going these wonderful two years.
