Welcome to Litsy!

Last bit of #FoodAndLit #India cooking

Top right is a mutter paneer. It used the tomato onion masala as a base and was delicious but incredibly rich!
Bottom right is Jeera biscuits, which are like shortbread biscuits with cumin seeds in. They were an interesting taste but very good with chai!

And finally on the left is masala chai, tomato chilli jam, and a bacon naan roll (I made the naan too) which we have had before but was delicious!

Had a productive day: beautifying myself, buying trainers without holes in, and making onion and tomato masala followed by Chole Bhature (the masala is an ingredient)

It was very tasty, but a lot of effort for 2 people 😂
We do have a lot of masala left for other dishes though.

The Chole was served with ginger matchsticks, diced red onion, coriander, lime wedge, and chappatis (shop bought)

Easing myself into some new literary challenges this year; I created a reading journal to keep track!✨

It‘s no contest! Yes the internet is good for some quick conversions and inspiration - but it‘s no substitute for leafing through a beautifully photographed cookbook. 🌟

One of my resolves for the year is to start some mornings slower, take time alone to think, be peaceful and reflect.... today did just that, with my book, a bacon naan & lassi ! Highly recommend it!

Enjoying curling up with this one.. part travelogue, gorgeous recipe ideas and stunning photography. It‘s a love letter to the Irani cafes of Mumbai. Can‘t wait to get stuck into cooking fro this one - I think it‘s going to be our October cook book of the month ( we choose one cookbook and cook through it for a month!)
