| Simple Kheer [Sweet Rice Pudding] | |
This kheer was a constant of my childhood. I have savoured it hot, cold, with puris and numerous other ways one can imagine. My mum used to experiment with the consistency of the kheer and I think the thicker and creamier it was, the more delicious it tasted.

| Chilli Butter | |
This is a wonderful, flavoured butter to have handy in your fridge. I use this to whip up a spicy omelette, to grill my corn cobs on in the weekends and to slather my sandwiches instead of mayonnaise.

| Coconut Powder [Thengai Podi] | |
A "podi" is a very interesting concept in the South Indian style of cuisine. An ancient and traditional practice of roasting a combination of dals, spices and condiments; then processing them into a coarse powder to be enjoyed with a dollop of "ghee" or a generous serving of oil, gave birth to the "podi" family. There is a wide variety of "podis" available from specialty Indian stores, but making your own and revelling in the spicy aroma is very satisfying indeed.

| Marinated Olives with Lemon & Fennel | |
This recipe from an old June 2003 issue of The Australian Table Magazine sounded really interesting. It turned out amazing, I might be partial to it, coz I am a compulsive olive popper. The recipe said to cover with extra-virgin oil, but since it was a lot, I drained it a bit before serving.

| Hearty Cream Of Spinach Soup [Palak Ka Shorba] | |
This is a great source of iron and antioxidants for toddlers and adults alike. It is simple to make, extremely nutritious and full of hearty, buttery flavour. I use frozen spinach portions for a quicker option, but fresh spinach will work equally well.

| Potato Kootu | |
"Kootu" is a semi-solid side dish from Tamil Nadu in Southern India. A vegetable stew of sorts, kootu is also made with lentils. The absence of sour ingredients like tomato and tamarind is widespread, but this kootu recipe calls for 'tamarind' to impart it a tangy flvour.
