Dipping into one of my favourite recipe books tonight, Fresh India, by Meera Sodha.

I made the Butternut Squash, Aubergine and Red Lentil Sambhar. Very fragrant and delicious. I served it with rice, but I think bread would work better.

Diving into #MeeraSodha #East again this morning for more Scrambled Tofu Akuri. Akuri style is from the Indian Parsi community, and uses chilli, ginger, cumin, garlic, coriander leaves and tomato.

I used Pressed Silken Tofu this time, and it was perfect. I love her idea of draining the tofu for 10 mins prior to cooking. Yum. A definite favourite, along with Ottolenhi's scrambled harissa tofu.

BTW, I prefer scrambled tofu made with silken tofus over the more popular firm tofu. It is naturally more creamier and soft, whereas you do need to be careful of moisture when using firm tofu - recipes often add milk, cream and even mayo! No need for that here.

If we've been connected on the other platform for a long time, you'll know how much I love congee in Winter.

Meera Sodha makes a delicious looking celery and braised mushroom congee, altho I cook my congee for MUCH longer than she does. (Hetty McKinnon also has a "quick" congee that I've made and I have to admit that the shorter cooking times still produce a delicious result.)

Pompoencafrael uit het boek van Meera Sodha. Ondertussen veel recepten uitgeprobeerd van dit boek en geen enkel gerecht viel tegen.

Excuse the poor lighting. Yet again, Meera Sodha’s Singapore noodles recipe saves the day. Chuck in whatever veg needs using up, along with copious amounts of ginger, garlic and onion, stir fried with curry powder and soy. Excellent!
