Chickpea Battered Cod with Crispy Potatoes & Carrot Chutney
There are three recipes here- Pan Fried Chickpea Battered Fish with Indian Spices, Crispy Baked Potato Wedges and a Sweet and Hot Carrot Chutney. They are each excellent and worth making on their own if you don’t want to put it all together the same way I did.
The Best Cranberry Chutney
May I humbly suggest that cranberry sauce should be replaced with cranberry chutney at your next holiday meal? You don’t even need to wait for a special occasion meal! I am devoted to having sweet condiments with my savory food, so I make and eat a lot of fruit chutney. In my freezer, right now,…
Two Green Chutneys- Mint Coconut/ Cilantro Peanut
You buy a bunch of mint or cilantro for a recipe. The recipe uses a few sprigs out of the bunch. The rest wilts in your fridge. Next time, you skip the fresh herbs and the dish does not taste as good. Grrrrrrrrr. There are a lot of ways to preserve fresh herbs so that…
Making Patra in a North American Kitchen
Last November, I taught a series of gluten-free cooking classes to children with celiac’s disease. The class was generously hosted in the beautiful kitchen of one of student’s parents. These parents were amazing cooks themselves, but had realized that their daughter did not want to learn to cook from them, so they brought me in….
Spinach and Chickpea Curry in Yogurt Sauce

Also, my kitchen has been over-run with Butternut Squash from my farmshare, so I have a bunch of squash/ pumpkin recipes to share. My friend John Carlisle Moore gave me permission to use his beautiful Butterbitterbetternot…
A Curried Lentil Salad from Cousin Gary
A few weeks ago, my favourite cousin Gary came to visit me for a few days. I love my family, and I have a whole slew of awesome cousins. So, when I say that Gary is my favourite cousin, know that he has beaten out out a dozen or so other amazing cousins for this…
Cauliflower Roasted with Curry and Cashew Butter
I recently wrote about the foods that I miss from my childhood home, Maui. I decided not to mention an entire genre of delicious hippy cuisine, served up at potlucks, vegetarian and/ or vegan restaurants and health food store lunch counters. This food is a gleeful mash up of vegetarian food from all over the…
Cauliflower Almond Turmeric Soup
In the summer, I was contacted by an editor at The Guardian who wanted to use my recipe for Sticky Boozy Chocolate Plum Pudding Cake in their 10 Best Plum Recipes article. I was very, very excited. It took a couple of months for the article to come out, and while I was waiting I’ll…
