It is rarely that I post things about what I cook. And very very rarely have I shared photos of stuff I cook. Many people who meet me are surprised to know that I haven't hired a cook, and I do all the cooking myself. My husband too cooks, and one of the things we love doing together, is cooking.
Today was one of those days, where I ended up making some stuff which turned out YUMMILICIOUS.
Carrot Idlis for breakfast. You can find the recipe HERE
I served it with some coconut -coriander chutney. It is something my grandmother used to make, and the recipe has been passed down the family. I love the feeling of nostalgia, warmth and comfort this brings.
And then, in the afternoon, I baked a banana-walnut cake. I used THIS recipe.
That turned out really well. It tasted divine and the the aroma wafting across the home, brings such a happy, warm feeling. This is what love smells like :)
Sometimes, we forget to be grateful for life's little things.
I think it is important that we are.
Do you cook? What food brings you comfort? Is there a recipe that hs been passed down the generations?
Tell me in my comment box. (I have a selfish reason for asking this too. What you share here, might end up in a novel :) [ Yes, I have already started working on my next book. ]
Will post again soon. Till then, don't forget to be grateful for life's little blessings.
