Sweet coconut pudding with fresh young coconut meat, coconut water, cashews, vanilla, and ghee.
Pineapple Payasam (Sweet Pineapple Pudding)
Payasam; also known as kheer in Northern India, specifically in the Punjabi community, is a rice pudding, traditional in South Asia. It’s made by boiling rice, noodles, or broken wheat with milk and sugar, and flavored with cardamom, raisins, saffron, cashews, pistachios or almonds. Out of all the payasam I enjoyed, coconut, cashew and cinnamon were the most popular. It is typically served during a meal alongside your curries or rice, or consumed alone as a dessert.
Spinach Salad with Tomato Vinaigrette
Spinach, bacon and tomatoes. A match in heaven if you ask me! This salad is sweet, savory, with just a perfect lightness to it!
Tomato Vinaigrette
This recipe is a family favorite. My Auntie Trish shared it with the family when we were kids and it quickly became the go to dressing for all of our family functions. The original called for ketchup, white and brown sugar, canola oil and Worcestershire sauce so I decided to clean it up a bit while still trying to maintain it’s delicious flavor. Mission accomplished!
