Welcome to my Blog

Hmm you'll say...yet another food blog! And I'll beg to differ, although I must say my recipes are not hi-funda, and sometimes the pictures do not do justice to them (I'm working on that) but you'll find them extremely easy to cook, hassle free and down right delicious.
So if you are a newbie in the kitchen department or has not ventured into the kitchen for some strange reason (like me)...then you have come to the right place.

Happy Cooking!

Tomato and Fresh Chilli Chutney

This Chutney is more like a mild salsa, or rather a dip and it will go well with any mexican food. The recipe asked to be served chilled, and combining it with alu parathas and qeema was a disaster. My sweet hubby pretended to like it but I know its another mishap in the kitchen. But I must tell you it has a pleasant taste and if you are planning on making some home made salsa, then I recommend you go for it.

Ingredients:
1 red bell pepper
4 tomatoes
2 fresh green chillies
1 garlic clove crushed
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp granulated sugar
1 tsp chilli powder
3 tbs tomato paste
1 tbs cilantro

Method:
Half the red pepper, deseed it and remove the core

Process the pepper with the tomatoes, chillies, garlic, salt, sugar, chilli powder, tomato paste and cilantro along with 2 tbs water in a food processor until smooth. I used the mini food prep (the newest member in my kitchen)

Transfer to a sterlized jar and chill. It won't stay long in the fridge since the raw tomatoes started leaving water.
