Carrot Cake This Carrot Cake is from a reader, the lovely Dorothy of Tennessee in the States, a long-time reader of RecipeTin Eats. She promised it was dead easy, foolproof, ultra moist with a heavenly flavour. One bite was all it took for me to ditch the recipe I’d been using all my life up until that moment. This was The One. Hands down the best Carrot Cake I have ever had in my life!...

And please note that celebrations from the couch in sweatpants are also festive and absolutely deserve a batch of Champagne Punch too! I have long loved any excuse for a party. (What’s that? You got a promotion/haircut/made all the green lights on your way to work today? Let’s celebrate!) Combine that ardor with the fact that I now own a punch bowl (a worthy investment made last year for the sake of this Christmas Punch), and this Champagne Punch practically poured itself....
Chana dal is skinned and split lentil made from desi variety of chickpeas known as Kala chana. These are a staple in the Indian cuisine and are used in various dishes, from curries to snacks and appetizers like this masala vada. This lentil is also used to make chutneys, stir fry dishes and in tempering while making South Indian dishes. You can also make this dish without veggies. But to perk up the nutrition I use carrots or beets....

Chicken Kurma Kurma is a South Indian word for “Korma” and is very different from the Mughlai Korma in the preparation method and techniques. Both taste very different as the ingredients used are also different. So a kurma is not the same as Korma. South Indian kurma has coconut as the key ingredient, sometimes poppy seeds are also used. Ingredients like roasted chana dal and cashews are used as a thickener in the new-day versions....

My Grandma Dorothy was famous for her collection of homemade cookies and candies at the holidays. Her chocolate-covered pretzels with peppermint were my greatest weakness. As simple and innocent as white chocolate-covered pretzels might seem to the inexperienced, few treats can bring me to my knees like these salty-sweet gems. With cookies, I can usually limit myself to one or two. Chocolate-covered pretzels? I dare you to pry the bag from my chocolate-covered fingers!...

These crispy roast potatoes with rosemary are a classic side dish for a Sunday roast or for special lunches or dinners over the holiday season. I love to serve them alongside my Roast Chicken with Lemon and Rosemary. This foolproof recipe is so simple but it does require two steps - first parboiling the potatoes, then roasting in a hot pan. I initially tried to resist the parboiling step. For years I’d seen chefs on my favourite cooking shows recommending to go the extra effort but I often wondered if it would actually make all that much difference and I certainly didn’t want yet another thing to wash up!...
