Oven cooked Haddock with Herbed Breadcrumbs

Fish make a quick, easy yet delectable dish with the ingredients readily available in your pantry. Haddock fillets came to my rescue on a Saturday night when I was tired of the general weekend routine. The dinner was done and dusted within twenty minutes and it looked like a Michelin  star restaurant dish. Arun was ready with two glasses of wine while I served him a great looking and delicious dinner!! Saturday was well spent at home.



 Ingredients:

  • 2 fresh haddock fillets 
  • handful of cherry tomatoes (I used the normal ones as I didn't have cherry tomatoes)
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 cloves of garlic (peeled and grated)
  • 1 cup of breadcrumbs (I used Japanese penko crumbs, you can use the normal ones too)
  • juice of 1/2 lemon
  • handful of fresh parsley or 1 tbsp of dried parsley
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • salt and pepper to season
Method: 
  1. Preheat the oven to 220 degree Celsius. Lightly oil a large baking tray, then lay the haddock and tomatoes alongside each other. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the grates garlic, then spread evenly over the fillets.
  2. In a separate bowl, toss together the breadcrumbs, lemon juice and parsley, and season to your taste. Cover the fillets with the breadcrumbs until top is fully covered. 
  3. Bake the fillets for 10-12 minutes or till the fillets are light when pressed and the crust is golden and crunchy.

3 Ingredients / 3 Minute Microwave PEDAS

It's Celebration time all the way!! Why? Because My FB fan page has just reached 150 "Likes" & am so thrilled. Also, the festivities will start from August in India. First coming up is "Raksha Bandhan", the festival which celebrates the relationship & bond of a Brother & Sister. So I thought of coming up with an easy to make Indian Sweet Dish, "Peda". A "Peda" is a North Indian Milk Sweet mainly consisting of Khoa (thickened whole milk), sugar & other Indian flavourings like saffron & cardamom seeds. Pedas are usually made during festivities or for offerings made in the temple for deities. This recipe is a simple process of the same "time consuming" Pedas where the Milk is kept on the heat for hours to make khoa & then goes to the next process. This is the first time for me as well & I have taken this recipe from "showmethecurry.com" the cookery website of Hetal & Anuja. And I must say...

Hundred Thousand Dollar worth Rava Upma (Indian Semolina Polenta)

Now you must be thinking, who doesn't know to make Rava Upma? What is so special about it? Every 5th person residing in India knows to make it and is a common breakfast item in almost all the Indian household. We Indians take this dish for granted. Well up until a week back, even I thought the same about this dish and looked down on Rava Upma. Not anymore. Last week I read a news about an Indian born, New York Chef Floyd Cardoz who won the top prize of £100,000 in an American show called "Top Chef Masters". No prize for guessing, he made RAVA UPMA!! After reading the article, I immediately decided that the recipe of a basic version of Upma must be on my blog. And here I am sharing the if not a "million dollar", then atleast a "hundred thousand dollar worth Upma Recipe". :) Upma is a popular South Indian Breakfast dish, mainly prepared by Semolina. It has a great resemblance with the Italian Polenta. It can be made with many variations by adding vegeta...

Karaikudi Chicken Curry

Another spicy chicken dish comes your way & this time its from South India. Karaikudi, is a big town in Tamilnadu situated in the region of Chettinad. It is also the unofficial capital of Chettinad region. As I have already introduced the Chettinad flavours in my Urulai Chettinad recipe, this time am here with a non-vegetarian dish. It will be very peppery, very coconutty and very very tasty. "Karaikudi Chicken Curry" will remain a special dish for me as this was the first dish which I cooked and served after my wedding at my in-laws place. My in laws were bowled over my cooking and declared that I am a Super-Cook.....So every time I make this dish at home, I remember my initial marriage days & thank the recipe every time. It saved my reputation in the kitchen in front of all. Ha! Ingredients: 1 kg chicken (cut into bite size chunks) 2 big onions (finely chopped) 2 big tomatoes (finely chopped) 1/2 tsp turmeric powder + 1/2 tsp for marination 1/2 tsp red chilli powde...
