Summer Preserves

Paruppu podi (with pottu kadalai, garlic, red chillies, jeera and salt); Lemon pickle (with ginger, green chillies and lots of methi); garlic pickle (with turmeric, cumin, coriander, ajwain, kalonji, saunf, methi, mustard, lemon, jaggery, sesame oil, turmeric, vinegar and salt)

Sweet Potato, Aloo, Quinoa Tikkis

Sweet potatoes, potatoes steamed and mashed together with cooked red quinoa and aromatic herbs/spices (I used garam masala and cilantro). Patties with a cheese filling (optional) and crusted with whole wheat bread crumbs.

Shallow fried to golden perfection.
The crispy crust with the gooey cheese...the combination is lip smacking good!
