Rich Chocolate Tart

I had been craving a chocolate tart for the longest time before I actually made one for myself. I didn’t want something that was simply filled with a soft ganache, but something a little more wicked: something with lots of cream and butter and eggs. To fulfill this long standing hankering, I found the perfect […]

Hazelnut Chocolate Truffles

I love chocolate truffles for two reasons: You have an excuse to grab the best chocolate in your pantry. Truffles freeze really well. This gives you a chance to make lots of them and simply freeze them. Just pull them out whenever you feel the sudden compulsive need to satiate your chocolate craving. Like right […]

Caramelised Corn with Fresh Mint

When anybody talks about corn, I’m all ears. Just given me corn, butter, salt and pepper and I can eat that for all my meals, but make sure there is lots of butter. I’m always on the lookout to have corn in a newer, more interesting way. So when I saw a mint corn recipe […]

Rich, luscious Chocolate Mousse

Chocoholics – you’re going to love this! I made a chocolate mousse the other day and I cannot begin to tell you how delicious it was. I’m usually the kind who feels squeamish about having raw eggs in my desserts – especially yolks, but in this mousse you just can’t tell. Make sure to use […]

These tartlets are small and delicate with a buttery, almost cookie like crust […]

This contract is my entry […]

Chocolate Chip Shortbread

Or, instead, this post should be titled ‘I Love Dorie Greenspan’. The more recipes I try from her book Baking: From My Home to Yours, the more I feel like I don’t need any other baking book. I love how each recipe is written so beautifully with personal notes from experience and ideas for variation. […]

Mushrooms with Bacon and Sage

  I made these crazy delicious mushrooms last week. Has a familiar ring to it? Even for my previous post (the marinated eggplants), it took me a whole week to get to posting the recipe. Why, you ask? Of late I’m enjoying a little more of cooking over baking. Of late, I’m not taking too […]
