Happy Easter! This festival brings renewal of hope and a return to gorging yourself after your Lenten fast. My Jam Doughnut Cake contributes to the gorging yourself part. This high-calorie and high-protein cake will be enjoyed by your entire family and will disappear in no time, but will remain in your waistline for a much longer time!

Pongal O Pongal! Eating Sakkarai Pongal and chewing sugarcane will make you long for a savoury dish. Try my Celery Kichidi. It is high protein, high energy, rich in antioxidants, easy to make, and ideal for vegetarians and vegans.

What you want at Christmas time is rich food that is also easy to digest – and that is what this Lime and Ginger Cake provides! It is rich in protein, carbohydrates, and fat, but you won’t notice that because it is delicious and light on the stomach.

Celebrate Pongal, the harvest festival, and the birth of Thai with my Uppu Paniaram for Pongal. These savoury fritters only have salt for flavour, and offer a very good contrast to the sweetness of the Sarkkarai Pongal and Karumbu.
