Temple soji

August 15, 2022August 15, 2022Leave a comment

There are a ton of soji recipes out there, trust me, I have googled it. Each recipe is very different from each other, some ask or food colouring to be added, others ask for saffron threads, some even ask for evaporated milk. Not only are there different recipes, but recipes are also made according to … Continue reading Temple soji

Kolkutter

August 29, 2021August 29, 2021Leave a comment

This sweetmeat is most likely the most boring and dullest sweetmeat there is out there. It has no colour and if you are not used to the texture, you will not enjoy it trust me. I associate this sweetmeat with old people. My parents I would have to say are old, because they love kolkutter. … Continue reading Kolkutter

Jalebi

A sweetmeat like no other, so crispy on the outside and one bite into that syrupy goodness and the world could end right there and then and I wouldn’t be worried at all. This sweetmeat also happens to be the sweetmeat that breaks me; it brings me to my knees every time I have to … Continue reading Jalebi

I could eat this sweetmeat, anytime, anyplace and for the rest of my life. If I was to be on death row, a tray of gulab jamun would be my last meal. At any function, you can find me making a bee line for the sweetmeat table to check and sample the gulab jumun. Diwali … Continue reading Gulab Jamun

Cape Malay Daltjies

February 4, 2021February 4, 2021Leave a comment

I started my culinary journey way way back in 2015. It was a rocky start, back in those days, I would stay up till 2 or 3 in the morning, cooking and baking up a storm. Now I prep the night before and cooking goes quickly once I get home. I didn’t really think that, … Continue reading Cape Malay Daltjies

Gujarati Patra

January 17, 2021January 17, 2021Leave a comment

Growing up, patha was this delicacy that could only be shipped in from Durban and the only time we really ate patha, was when we were cleaning vegetables for our annual July prayers. Then I discovered that the spice shop behind my Gran’s house, has an entire fridge dedicated to patha rolls. How adult did … Continue reading Gujarati Patra
