To accompany the chilled cucumber soup, I prepared a refreshing brown rice salad. Both of these dishes could be made ahead of time, saving you valuable relaxing evening time. Cold dishes like these really do offer you more interesting lunches as well. What you don’t see in the image is a side dish I also [...]

Benri is back! At last a dish I feel is more than worthy of a post. As I mentioned in a previous reply to a comment, Andy gave me a cookbook (one by the Weightwatchers team) as part of a birthday gift. I don’t think it was because he thinks I need to lose weight [...]

What a long title. Maybe I should reconsider that one? Anyway, this was last nights dinner. I love warm salads and grilled veg. This one is a keeper. I bought some fresh locally grown beefy shitake mushrooms from our local supermarket. Wow..the juiciness the bursting flavour. In my opinion they win hands down on any [...]
Edamame Salad with Wasabi Dressing

This weekend was off to a rocky start from Friday night. Coming home with a head full of stress then waking up at 4.30 am on a Saturday morning worrying about work is something I don’t want repeated. To top it all off, all the dishes I made completely flopped too. Definitely something to do [...]
What makes you smile on a gloomy day?

Wow when will it stop raining? It almost feels like Scotland here in Kochi right now. I’m now on a mission to cheer myself up. What do you usually do to lighten the mood when it’s the greyest of greys outside? Besides baking and eating cakes my number 1 is listening to Joanna Newsom, especially [...]
It’s Cooking Time!
May 2012 M T W T F S S « Feb 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 Here I am.
How would you describe your eating habbits? Do you live to eat or eat to live? I think from this blog of mine you can more or less guess which I'd use to describe my eating habits.
I love to indulge, but I also love to stay healthy. This is where this blog begins. I want to have a good reason to why I cook something, and enjoy experimenting with ways I can make what I eat healthier and more convenient (you'll find a lot of my recipes are made in the rice cooker)
From cakes to salads, I want a reason to justify why I make or eat them. I will also never compromise on flavour, which is why I try to use only the freshest of locally grown ingredients. Even now that I am a poor student I will never give in to value pack offers from huge supermarket chains! If I can't eat a lot, at least I know I consume what I need to stay healthy.
I hope you like my blog. I'm still learning and experimenting, with both cooking and photography, so if you happen to stop by or pop back to take a look from time to time, please feel free to make suggestion, leave a simple comment or to simply rant.
I'm looking forward to hearing what you have to say.All the best,
Suzie Sue
