egg rolls sandwich christmas

These Retro Egg Sandwich Rolls sliders are fantastic on the table for Christmas or any celebration and always a ‘hit’ for the little ones! An egg spread made with relish, scallions, mayonnaise, and the festive sweet pickle and pepper in the center. Those Egg Salad Pinwheels are my granma’s recipe and were usually tradition to make for Christmas Eve and highly appreciated by the little ones. A fluffy, tasty and fun bite to make the kids wait patiently before unwrapping their gifts. Plus, the leftovers make a fantastic breakfast for the next day! A Family Tradition These sliders are close to my heart; I used to make them every year with my grandma. Now, I’m doing it for my kids and, someday, hopefully, grandkids. Since I can remember, those sandwiches have been part of the Christmas feast (buffet style) at home. My mom would have a table filled with finger food,…

Indian flavored Cauliflower Couscous

cauliflower couscous indian

Cauliflower curry couscous is a great side dish, without actual couscous in it. This recipe is all cauliflower and perfect for low carb diet seekers. This white veggie replace couscous, bulgur, rice to perfection without being packed with carbohydrates, it represents 1/10 of white rice carb amount. I’m on this journey to lower my carb intake, I’ve been researching the internet for some nice recipes and tricks to help out. The internet is filled rice, bread, pasta,etc. alternatives and that cauliflower couscous was one of them. I was a bit sceptic at first, but I was more than pleasantly surprised at my first bite. So… if you are looking to cut down on carbs, this is a great way to do so. I had a simple curry powder and garam masala powder to the couscous to give it an indian flare, inspired by the main dish of the day which was grilled tandoori skewers. Cauliflower is a great alternative to…

Curry Popcorn

Curry Popcorn

Curry Popcorn is a great way to spice up your next home cinema night. If you are one of those soft curry lovers, or a Bollywood movie fan… this is the popcorn for you! Since I’ve started doing that Butter Curry Popcorn a few years back, it became the one and only way for me to eat popcorn. There is a little butter in it and salt, like in the traditional popcorn. Because popcorn without butter isn’t worth it. I saw curry popcorn recipes with coconut oil or Peanut oil but frankly, I need my butter in there! Plus, butter and curry goes amazingly well together. Curry powder Curry powder is made of a dry mix of ginger, turmeric, fennel seed, cardamom, cloves, etc. some versions spicier than others. This way you can add just a little butter, to keep it healthy, and go crazy on the amount of curry powder. You…

Coconut chicken noodles

Coconut chicken vermicelli

Feeling like a fresh, light, summer meal? Get those rice noodles out and let’s make a simple wok dish. The coconut chicken recipe is really similar to a yellow curry sauce, but this one is for lazy people, you can use weather the yellow curry paste but I simply used the curry powder. That powder is actually a British invention to reproduce the orient flavours. The powder usually contains curcuma, ginger, turmeric, coriander, fenugreek, pepper, cardamom etc. It a mix of at those asian flavours in one pot, some powders are spicier than others, the ingredients tends to change depending of the company. I use this curry powder on popcorn, with butter, it’s delicious! Coconut meat constipate while the coconut water is a natural laxative, how perfect is that? A perfect balance within a single coconut. In the recipe, coconut milk is used, but it could be switched to coconut cream, to make it fatter,tastier and smoother.…
