A recipe for passion is always simmering !
Ridge gourd combined with shrimp to make this delicious curry. A very rare combination, which works out great when cooked well seasoned in the form of a peppery thick gravy. The recipe shared here is from my granny and all credit goes to her.

Another great Chinese influenced dish, popular restaurant pick. Baby corn on cob deep fried and sauteed in Chinese sauces and stir fried with veggies.
Chinese style Chicken Manchurian. This is not the typical manchurian you get in a fancy Indian restaurants, totally different kind of preparation, only some Chinese restaurants in India serve this dish. Usually regular chicken manchurian means chicken dipped in batter deep fried and added to gravy, whereas here…. chicken is mixed with some veggies, made into small kolas(Urundai/dumplings/koftas) , deep fried and then added to the gravy. Sure everyone would love this preparation, quite time consuming but worth a try.
This may sound very odd but trust me, its one of the best. Healthy appetizer, made in minutes with just a couple of easy to find ingredients.
Simple and easy to make stir fried vegetable rice, kids would love, no MSG… just a little light soy sauce, which is optional too…. Pack this for lunch with ketchup, no kidding…
great side.
Indo Chinese Style Gobi Manchurian made fried cauliflower florets, spices and dark soy!
Chinese style preparation, restaurant popular dish, usually served as a side for fried rice or even as a starter.
Fried rice is a popular dish in chinese cusine.
These are pre-cooked dried noodles, can be prepared by simply dropping them in boiling water for few minutes, drain and stir fry in mixed vegies, meat and spice mix which comes along with it.
Pasta is basically Italian food similar to noodles, so why not try out in chinese style. This simple recipe comes under fusion cooking where rotini a short pasta, twisted into a spiral shape, is stir fried in chinese style. Any variety can be used , but this spiral shaped pasta gives a decorative effect to the dish and children would love it.
