  • Haray Masalay ki Murghi. It’s an easy recipe and one where most of the ingredients just get blitzed together. It’s also one where I made quite the mistake a while back. So full disclaimer before I start: I own zero fancy editing softwares, I’m not knocking them but just stating that I haven’t figured them out yet. So many years ago when I first shared this recipe and it’s pictures taken on a dark weirdly lit day turned out to be a vibrant green and like an idiot I was all like “that looks cool! Let’s post the recipe!” Then the messages started - the we love the chicken, but are so disappointed it’s not the same colour as yours. Each time I’d explain and each time I’d want to bang my head against a wall but for some reason it took me forever to reshoot it. Here it is, my super simple haray masalay ki murghi in its dhania green glory. Thanks friends for putting up with my many mistakes along the way ❤️ It’s getting late but I’ll share a quick how to in my stories tomorrow . . . . . #flourandspiceblog #pakistanifood #indianfood #pakistanibloggers #torontoblogger #dawndotcom #foodpics
  • Here are three things that I know about @teaforturmeric 1.) she makes beautiful looking parathas and will teach me one day (ok maybe I don’t know that) 2.) she’s incredibly genuinely sweet 3.) her mixed vegetable curry recipe is 👌🏽. The recipe is on her blog and I made it with only two small changes which was that I increased the chilli powder (my taste buds are broken) and used edamame instead of peas because I was out. So so yummy. . . . . . . #flourandspiceblog #teaforturmeric #pakistanifood #indianfood #igpakistan #foodpicoftheday
  • Good company. Good coffee. That’s all it takes. The promise of good food also doesn’t hurt ☺️ @clunydistillery . Photo cred: @teems__ Happiness cred: @navinhusain @shanjeehusain @areejikins @teems__ . . . #flourandspiceblog #torontoblogger #igerstoronto #distillerydistrict #happy #foodblogger
  • Maybe I’m playing with my food, maybe I’m not. I like making granola at home because I’m the only person who really eats it! I really wish they sold mini bags in stores! What’s something you wish you could buy a smaller quantity of? Froot Loops is a legit answer.. 😂 Recipe from @foodfashionparty book #MasalaandMeatballs Yes, I’m obsessed. Yes, you should buy it.

  • A while back I’d asked what kind of recipes you wanted and over and over I got baked and chicken. So here’s my super easy Baked Chicken Fajitas (full recipe link in my profile). Also here is my first video. I know, it’s pretty basic but it’s a start. One of my goals for 2019 is to start making recipe videos. I always knew I wouldn’t like my first just in the same way I know my second will be better and so on and so forth. So here’s to a delicious EASY Fajita Chicken Bake and what will hopefully be my least good recipe video 😂 Y’all are really the best for putting up with me. . . . . #flourandspiceblog #foodvideos #healthyrecipes #easyrecipes #delish #fajitas
  • @consciousbykomal and I have been chatting about coal. You can’t make this stuff up folks. There’s something transformative about “koylay ka dhuan” or making your food with a smouldering piece of coal. I use it in this No Tomato Smoky Highway Chicken Karhai, Dum ka Qeema (duh) and even the Punjabi Biryani on my blog. My aunt recently sent me some and I was wondering what else do you guys use it for? Also guys for those of you have ceramic cooktops - you can get a piece of coal smouldering if you put it directly on the cooktop. Your welcome 🙏☺️ . . . . #pakistanifood #chicken #feedfeed #karhaichicken #foodblogger #indianfood #flourandspiceblog #delish #igpakistan
  • Someone once asked me how I eat my Aaloo Kabab. I said, “with a fork”. Then I realized they meant with what else. Still a fork. My mother would make these trademark cutlets of hers and my friends would drop in to eat them whether I was home or not. I never held that against them. The recipe for these Crunchy Corn and Green Chilli Cutlets is in my blog archives. They are also probably in my mamas freezer right now Man I wish that wasn’t so far away. . . . . #flourandspiceblog #pakistanifood #foodie #delish #foodie #indianfood #foodblogger #dawndotcom
  • *insert cute Christmas carol for ambiance* - I’ll take any excuse to bake folks. These Meringue Cookies are studded with hazelnut dark chocolate and a lot of love. Made by the little and I for one of her teachers, their sweet shatter punctured by deep dark chocolate is the stuff of joy. Quick Recipe: 3 egg whites, 1/8 tsp cream of tartar, 2/3 cup sugar, one 100g bar of dark Lindt chocolate with hazelnuts chopped into small pieces. With your mixer on medium whip the egg whites and cream of tartar until soft peaks form then gradually add the sugar and whip until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in the chocolate chunks. Prep two baking sheets by lining them with parchment paper. Put tablespoon sized mounds of the meringue on the sheets about 1.5 inches apart. Bake at 300F for 15 minutes or until the meringues start to turn golden. Switch where the trays are in the oven. Then drop the temp to 200F and bake for 90 minutes. Turn the oven off and let the meringues cool there. Makes 3 dozen. Keeps well in a tightly sealed container for two months.

  • I am not the girl who wakes up on a random day and puts on a shalwar qameez for fun. I am not the girl whose house is decorated with traditional carved furniture. I am the girl though who so loves her Pakistani culture and for me food is the easiest (and best way) to keep that alive. The flavours of Pakistan have gone with me everywhere I have lived and even now when I miss home it’s that food that comforts my soul. These simple kababs made with @shanfoodsglobal @shanfoods Seekh Kabab Masala accompanied by Shan brand Green Chutney bring back the taste and vibrancy of Pakistan even on dreary winter afternoons. How many of you have a masala box or a chutney tucked away in your kitchen cabinets? ✋🏼 if you do! #ad #foodblogger #shanfoods #atasteofhome #delish #torontoblogger #pakistaniblogger #foodie
  • Made the Spicy Carrot @instantpotofficial soup from @pinchofyum. It has a red curry paste base (which I may have adjusted because I am Pakistani and my tastebuds love it) and coconut milk mixed into a carrot purée. Soup is one of those things I make knowing that most recipes make a ton and I can keep it in the fridge for the week. I loved the flavour of this soup and the crunch of the peanuts with the freshness of the cilantro. Pinch of Yum and Smitten Kitchen have been my favourite non desi blogs for a long time. What are yours? . . . . #pinchofyum #soup #comfortfood #delish #feedfeed #instantpot #flourandspiceblog #igtoronto #foodie #huffposttaste
  • Areeba @mintcandydesigns said she would make Nihari for me one day. Just putting that out here so she doesn’t forget. You know for after she’s done conquering the BC world of clinical psychology. Until then I can make it myself, buy it, or have my SIL, our resident nihari Queen, @sadaf_mir_ali make some. I am leaning towards option 3. This picture for all those who are wondering is mine and the recipe is on the blog. . . . . #nihari #recipeontheblog #pakistanifood #igerspakistan #delish #food #foodie #instantpot
  • My name is Sarah and I am an Egg-aholic. After a lifetime of having eaten more than my fair share of eggs I didn’t think there was a new interesting way left to eat them. God Bless Asha @foodfashionparty for proving me wrong 🙏 these Hasselback Eggs are topped with a baghaar/tadka of crackly seeds, garlic and chillies and they are incredible. Full recipe in her book #masalaandmeatballs. Also fellow Canadians I recently learnt that all our eggs are local to where we live - how awesome is that! Another reason to eat more! . . . . #breakfast @eggsoeufs @eggfarmersont #delish #foodie #feedfeed #huffposttaste #flourandspiceblog #brunch #indianfood #pakistanifood
