Summer is here! And how! It is hot and we are all at home thanks to what’s going on in the world. Everyone is learning to deal with this new normal in different ways but food is a common pillar most people are gravitating towards. Whether it is amping up existing skills, learning new things, cooking for the first time or trying to recreate favourites – it’s all happening!
For me, the summer is all about vacations, relaxing, spending time with family/friends and of course, eating delicious food. Ice creams have been a big part of summer forever. This time, however, it wasn’t so easy to get hold of it so easily. I decided to make my own! This watermelon popsicle is super easy to make, lasts for ages and tastes delicious!

Tomato Bruschetta is easily one of my favourite things to eat. I invariably order it every chance I get. Sometimes they aren’t really great, but I’ve definitely been lucky more often than not.
I first tried a bruschetta when I was in my teens, at a hotel buffet. I was wary, since I wasn’t a fan of raw tomatoes, but it looked so juicy and delicious that I had to try it. Boy, was I happy I did!

Growing up in Delhi, winter brought with it the famous shakarkandi (sweet potato) chaat. You would see people setting up their carts in markets, outside parks, near colleges all selling this lovely little snack.
This is my version of the classic. I’ve made it a wee bit more to suit my palate and so it’s not the simple childhood treat that you might remember.

It’s always a surprise when something you’ve never liked actually becomes something you love, right? Especially food! There are flavours, dishes, ingredients that you grow up disliking (sometimes for no legit reason) and some of these magically transition from dislike to tolerate to actually like to eat, over the years.
Two such things show up in this recipe, which is what makes it so special : roasted Pumpkin soup!
