Cheesy, eggy Georgian bread boats: Honey & Co's khachapuri recipe for New Year's Day brunch - The Guardian

Image
W hat do you need on the first day of a new year, after a night of revelry? Hot bread, hot cheese and a runny egg, preferably in one neat, boat-shaped package and with a name that’s hard to pronounce when you’re hungover. Enter acharuli khachapuri , a delicious Georgian savoury bake that has it all: sweet, soft bread topped with salty, melted cheese and an egg cooked just so. Traditionally, a big pat of butter is placed on top, too, as if the whole thing is not rich enough already. To eat, rip off the tip of the bread boat and use it to break the yolk and mix it into the hot cheese. The first bite is the best, so savour it, then carry on ripping off the crust and dipping it in the centre until there’s none left. Roll the remains into a cheesy, doughy cigar and tuck in. Start the year as you mean to go on – it’s going to be a good one. Acharuli khachapuri Prep 10 min Prove 55 min Cook 45 min Serves 4 For the dough 130ml milk 1 tsp sugar 1 sparse tsp (5g) fast-action dried yeast ,

Healthiest oatmeal? These recipes can help boost your nutrition - USA TODAY

When you roll out of bed on a cold winter’s day, sometimes the only thing that’ll start the morning off right is a nice warm meal. Maybe that includes a steaming mug of coffee or tea , warm pancakes with melty chocolate chips or a bowl of oatmeal. The healthiest breakfast is one that includes the nutritional trifecta of protein, healthy fats and complex carbohydrates to keep you full until the next meal, experts previously told USA TODAY.  So how does oatmeal measure up? Here’s how to build the healthiest bowl. What is the healthiest oatmeal? The healthiest oatmeal is less about the type of oat and more about how you make it, according to registered dietitian Jamie Nadeau .  Steel-cut oats, quick oats, rolled oats – they’re all nutritionally pretty similar, Nadeau says. The biggest difference is the texture. Steel-cut oats take longer to cook and are chewier. Instant oats will cook faster but are more mushy. Oatmeal does contain protein – a little more than 10 grams per cup

Biryani, the undisputed champion of all-time favourite dishes, is a culinary masterpiece perfect for dinner parties, lunches, or any special occasion.

Meera Sodha’s vegan recipe for ram-don noodles from Parasite, with black garlic, leek and Tenderstem - The Guardian

Image
D inner and film night is my jam. It’s how we as a family end the working week on a Friday night, and it’s absolutely how I’m going to finish 2023. This year we’re going to rewatch Parasite , the Oscar-winning Korean film from which I’ve borrowed inspiration for today’s recipe. In the film, ram-don is a combination of two sets of Korean instant noodles, chapagetti and neoguri , part ramen and part udon. The end result tastes, much like my hope for the new year, sweet, spicy and exciting. Ram-don with black garlic, leek and Tenderstem You’ll need some black garlic paste, which is widely available in larger supermarkets. If you like, prep all the elements in advance – noodles, tofu, sauce, broccoli – and cook them together just before serving. Prep 10 min Cook 40 min Serves 4 225g smoked tofu , drained 4 tbsp cornflour 15 dried shiitake mushrooms (15g) 4 tsp dark brown sugar 4 tbsp light soy sauce 1½ tbsp black garlic paste 3 tbsp gochujang 2 tsp rice vinegar Rapeseed o

Baked cheese, glazed sausages and veggie dip: Yotam Ottolenghi’s easy recipes to usher in the new year - The Guardian

Image
W hether you’re having a big get-together or lying low on the sofa, seeing out the year with good food is always a good idea. The options, as I see them, are threefold. One is to go all out – cue an entire baked cheese, not least because we know, come the stroke of midnight, we’re all granted a clean and shiny new slate, right? Second, stick to old-school classics, which in my book means chipolatas, full stop. And the third? The third is for those who by this stage of festive proceedings are craving something that’s deliciously, nutritiously green. Whichever option you go for (not that you have to choose – why not have all three?), here’s to making good food, sharing good food and celebrating all the good things that doing so can bring. Baked camembert, ’nduja and honey (pictured top) Serve this as a party sharer or a starter for two, or spirit it away and devour solo on the sofa – either way, it’s an unashamedly rich, sweet, spicy, tangy and decadent way to mark the new year.

The Wire Recommends: The Meals We Remember From 2023 - The Wire

Image
1. Pariplab Chakraborty: Shutki maccher bhorta It has been almost two years since my grandma passed. She used to make the best shutki maccher bhorta I’ve ever had. It’s a Bengali preparation of dried loitta fish slow cooked with sweet pumpkin and a lots of onion, garlic and mustard oil – generally served with warm white rice and green chillies. We used to have it with Tulaipanji rice, an indigenous rice variety of North Bengal. This year I tried a lot of times to recreate that recipe. I couldn’t reach my grandma’s perfection but it was worth exploring. ‘Shutki bhorta’ is very inherent and attached to our ‘Bangal’ identity. And cooking it here in Delhi made it easier for me to navigate the urban haze – fulfilling yet very empty, populated yet very lonely and green yet ‘fresh’ inside the plastic airtight container. The dish bears a testimony to my childhood, both personally and politically. 2. Atul Ashok Howale: Moving to Delhi I had to move to Delhi for work from Sangli, Kolhapur

Out Of Nutmeg? 5 Great Substitutes To Rescue Your Recipe - NDTV

Image
Nutmeg is known for its distinct aroma and flavour. (Image Credit: Istock) Indian food is known for the use of various spices. It is what makes it unique and makes it stand apart from all the other global cuisines. Among the many spices, nutmeg (jaiphal) is one that is used quite extensively in several recipes. It is used in both sweet and savoury dishes and imparts a distinct taste and delightful aroma to them. Although it is used in small quantities, it can easily go out of stock and we forget to restock since it's not used on a regular basis by everyone. And realising this right in the middle of cooking can be quite annoying. Isn't it? In such situations, we often feel stressed. But not anymore! Save time by skipping a visit to the grocery store and making use of ingredients that you can find in your kitchen pantry. Wondering what these alternatives to nutmeg are? Read to find out!

The original food influencers | Meet the keepers of heirloom recipes from India's diverse culinary traditions - The Hindu

Image
At a time when the country’s contemporary foodscape is transforming rapidly — influenced by foreign cuisines and experiments, see-sawing between isms and social media fads — we remember the custodians who are the repositories of traditional food knowledge. The names of India’s many regional dishes — from Kanyakumari’s kaya kozhakattai to the tabak maaz of Kashmiri wazwan and the wu san tikye of the Singpho people in Arunachal Pradesh — may be familiar, but the keepers of these heirloom recipes, often elders in the family or a community leader, are only known to the locals. “If in Goa this Christmas, check out Dona Figueiredo in Madgaon,” says food writer Vikram Doctor, when asked for recommendations from the Sunshine State. “She’s a repository of old Goan Catholic sweets and snacks, and one of the few people today who still makes the  pastéis de banana  [a delicate pastry wrapped around sticky  figada  or banana jam].” In Hyderabad, Dilnaz Baig’s name pops up, the person to visit fo
