| Ranga Alur Bhortha |
Sweet potatoes were always a favourite vegetable even as a child. One of my earliest memories is walking around with a boiled sweet potato and munching on it like candy. Bhortha is a mashed vegetable or fish preparation, so it's better to microwave or bake the sweet potatoes rather than boiling them. This dish is served as a first course during a Bengali meal and tastes best paired with steamed rice.

Spicy Peanut Noodles
|
It turns out that Hubby is allergic to peanuts, so I made these noodles just for myself and went crazy with the chili sauce. Delicious Spicy Peanutty Noodles takes no time to make, especially if you can get your hands on fresh fettuccini pasta which take all of 3 minutes to cook.

3 Kinds of Treats
|
Having to watch my sugar intake puts me on the lookout for sugar-free or no-sugar-added dessert options. These simple energy bites are ideal for snacking any time of day and will be enjoyed by both young and old members of the family. |

They come together with just 4 ingredients and the most complicated part in making them is pulsing the ingredients in a food processor. The best part is that they don't need to be refrigerated or frozen and can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container.
Here's how simple the process is. - Choose 2 dried fruits, 1 roasted nut and 1 item in which to roll the treats.
- Pulse your fruit and nut choices in a food processor or Ninja chopper until the dough forms a big ball.
- Make walnut-sized balls and roll around to cover in the 4th ingredient.
- Place in pretty cupcake wrappers, store in an airtight container at room temperature and they're ready for a tiffin box or a grab-and-go snack.
