Prawn Gravy

Prawn Gravy

Prawns are the best of seafood to me, being born and brought up in a coastal area, I was always lucky enough to have the fresh and best seafood. When it comes to prawns, it’s simply irresistible for me. I wonder if there is anyone who doesn’t like prawns. Even if you hate prawns, once if you try this South Indian version of spicy prawn gravy, I’m sure you’ll start loving it. So common tr…

Angry Birds Onigiri Lunch Box

Angry Birds Onigiri Lunch Box

An idea struck me when it was my son’s lunch box day on Fridays. Jon loves Onigiri, so I decided to make him an Angry Birds Lunch Box! Angry Birds, the popular & best-selling mobile game, has taken the world by storm. The game is about these birds who’re angry because their eggs were stolen by a bunch of green pigs. Since they can’t fly, they’ve to use a giant slingshot to catapult themselves to destroy those…

Ancho Swordfish with Ginger-Sweet Potato Mash

Check out this gorgeous dinner from the lovely Janelle at Talk of Tomatoes!  This truly looks like something you’d pay a fortune for at the fancy foodie restaurant of your choice.  So how about treating yourself and making it at home?  A romantic dinner, perhaps? Janelle writes… “I started thumbing through some of those cookbooks and was circling curries (from India? from Thailand?…

Rainbow Trout baked in Parchment

Rainbow Trout baked in Parchment

I guess I could have gone all fancy and said Rainbow Trout En Papillote, but I didn’t want to scare anyone away. This is honestly an easy, relatively foolproof, dish that has a great presentation! It would be an excellent idea for a small dinner party, as fish can be prepped and wrapped ahead of time, then just stuck in the oven to bake when you’re ready. Serve with rice and a green salad, and you…

Clever! Soup in a Jar..

Clever! Soup in a Jar..

I ran across this yesterday at Foodwhirl fave, Talk of Tomatoes, and thought it was too clever not to share…  Fish Soup in a Jar? Like Janelle, I love jars too.  Unlike Janelle, I’m not getting inspiration from a trip to Bologna!  I’m so trying this.  Read on… I do love jars. And now, I use them to make fish soup. Thanks to Bologna. And one of the best meals of my life. And my main course.…

Cajun Shrimp & Okra

Cajun Shrimp & Okra

I had the urge the other night to make some sort of dish with shrimp, to use up some shrimp broth in my freezer. I had a pound of shrimp, and also some frozen okra on hand, so I figured that was just screaming to go Cajun or Creole (Let the good times roll with Shrimp Creole!). So here’s my version of Cajun Shrimp and Okra. It’s pretty simple to make, the colors are beautiful, it’s healthy, and yo…

Simple Ceviche

Simple Ceviche

Ceviche is a recent passion of mine– Every time I’ve bought either fish or shrimp lately, I’ve bought some extra so I can make up a batch!  It makes a lovely appetizer for dinner guests, or I just like to eat it for lunch… This is my go-to super easy recipe… It’s incredibly flexible to modify as well, so have fun with it! Adjust the amounts based on the amount of your fish o…
