Sandesh moulds

Posted on December 19, 2015 by bombayhowrahdiningcar

These beautiful stone moulds from Aniruddha’s mother are used to shape the famous Bengali sweet sandesh (shondesh). And I’ve added my own non-Bengali touch to the sandesh I made by decorating them with colour 🙂

I have a couple of ways to use up leftovers, but my two favourites are either turning everything into a mash for cutlets or doing a nice bake. Today it was the latter as I figured this to be the best way to use up zucchini and spinach alongwith other overflows in the fridge. Tonight's bake has layers of lightly pan fried zucchini slices, steamed spinach, cheddar cheese, rice, garlic, my homemade curry leaf and green chilli powder, eggs and breadcrumbs. Baked for 25 mins till golden brown and completely polished off by the three of us. Simples! #leftovers #overflow #vegetables #zucchini #spinach #cheddarcheese #rice #eggs #baked #bakedvegetables #quickdinner #simpleflavours #weekdaydinner #bhdcmeals

Realized as we were prepping for dinner last night that after running BHDC for so long, we've lost practice in cooking large portions of our dishes 😬 Happy that we could get this ginormous portion of mutton biryani done (credit to @spareribs29) along with masale bhat, dal and raita. Forgot to take pics of the beetroot chops, chicken jungli and cheese chutney toasts and bhapa doi for dessert. Super fun evening last night and we will soon be back to supper club portions again 😆 #dinner #biryani #muttonbiryani #largeportions #friendsfordinner #bhdcmeals #bhdcevenings

A slightly more indulgent dinner than usual as we had a friend over. Prawns cooked in bottle masala (🌶️🌶️), mussels with raw mango and coconut, chickpeas cooked with tea, rice and a mixed vegetable raita. Simple yet tasty. It feels like Friday evening, but my calendar reminded me that unfortunately we're just in the middle of the week 😒 #weekday #weekdaydinner #friend #homecookedmeals #homecooking #dinnerathome #bhdcmeals #prawns #bottlemasala #mussels #coconut #rawmango #chickpeas #wishitwerefriday

Long time no bake, hence decided to make blueberry muffins. Recipe courtesy smittenkitchen. And while the muffins taste yum, more than the muffins I was delighted with the lighting of this shot 🤪 #blueberrymuffins #muffins #blueberry #baking #longtimenobake #bhdcfavourite #homebaking #weekend #foodphotography #niceshot

Sunday lunch! Cholar dal (sweet & savoury chana dal), chorchori (mixed greens and root vegetables), rice, green chili pickle, papad And also on the side is shorsher tel makha made with rice, cooked chana dal, onion, mustard oil, green chilli and coriander. Best! Now time for a snooze 😴 #sundaylunch #sunday #lunch #homecookedmeals #homecooking #lentils #cholardal #rice #chorchori #greenchilli #mustardoil #bhdcmeals #sundaysnooze

When I saw a pack of organic chickpea spaghetti it just had to be tried... Dinner tonight was chickpea spaghetti tossed in oil with garlic, cherry tomatoes and with (you'll never believe it) pan fried tondli!! In my defense, had a few in the fridge that had to be used + chickpea spaghetti felt Indian enough to justify their addition 😬 It all tasted really good. The chickpea spaghetti does have a slight taste of lentils which makes it different to regular spaghetti. And the tondli actually worked! They have a couple of other lentil pasta options that I shall try out soon. #lentils #pulses #chickpeas #chickpeaspaghetti #spaghetti #organic #cherrytomatoes #tondli #ivygourd #bhdcdinners #bhdcexperiments
