These are the exercise of both my culinary skills and passion for teaching, in the hope of raising the quality of modern European cooking in the Indian home kitchen, whilst championing the small & intimate sit down & served dinner party format that advances interesting dialogue, cultivated debate and enduring friendship … do try your hand at these recipes, for they are easy yet impressive, and above all delicious!
Well, just because I love this dessert, and truth be told, had never made it before I decided to test it out last week, solely for the purpose of presenting you with a user friendly formula…
Allegedly the death dish, or at least according to the judges of ‘Masterchef Australia’, except that I beg to differ if anything the perfect scrambled egg is a far greater challenge, and this week, I am showing you exactly how to handle the making of this dish, including advance preparation and a perfect finish…

This week, I am going to teach you how to make a very pretty, darn delicious and, believe it or not, healthy little dish, for I have not been able to convince many of my guests that mozzarella (ordinarily the principal ingredient of this assembly) is not in itself fattening…
This week, I am going to teach you how to assemble a ‘small plate’, rather than cook it, with the exception of a simple little sauce that serves to both elevate and distinguish the assembly, which as mentioned above, is an ‘upper class’ smoked salmon hors d’oeuvre…
