I like beef more than mutton. My mother makes the best beef roast which I will post it soon. Whenever she prepares fried rice, then that beef roast will be the combo. Even now my mouth waters while thinking of it. This is another version of beef roast which goes well with plain rice and rasam. This is kind of semi gravy, so you can even serve with chappathi or Ottadai or Dosa. The marination of the beef is very important. The addition of lemon juice in the marination makes the beef to cook fast. You can adjust the spice levels as per your taste. A tasty beef roast is ready..

Stove Top Chicken Pizza / Chicken Pizza with Homemade Base / No yeast pizza
One day I was craving badly to have pizza. Bored of buying outside and also its quite expensive too. So I thought of preparing a homemade pizza. Searched for the base recipe. It asked for Yeast or Baking powder. I didn't have any of these things. So I tried to make my own recipe for base and guess what?? It was no different than a pizza which we buy from shops. The base was so soft and my hubby loved it. From that day on, we don't buy pizzas from outside that often. Usually kids love pizzas. But we always worry for their health. If you make it homemade then there is no guilt in giving them right? You can replace it with wheat flour and include different kind of veggies in it and make it healthier too .

Channa Masala / Chole Masala / Chickpea Curry
Channa Masala is a popular north indian side dish. This can be prepared in many ways. In this dish I have used the purees of onion and tomato and prepared it. It makes a great combo with batura but it can be eaten with chappathi or poori or anything of your choice. Its a simple yet flavourful and less spicy dish. Channa masala ranks high in the list of vegetarian side dishes. For other creamier vegetarian side dishes you can click,

Prawns Fried Rice / Shrimp Fried Rice
One day I felt so lazy to cook. I had some prawns in my fridge. I was not in a mood to prepare prawns roast or make some gravy for the regular rice. So thought why not make something different using prawns and kind of a one pot chinese meal. I had few veggies too. So I prepared the prawns fried rice. The flavour of the prawns with the rice is absolutely yummy.
