We’ve had a bumper crop of oranges this year on our backyard tree, and one of the quick Palate Cleansers / Desserts I like to make is Orange Sorbet. If you live in California, and have a few of these citrus trees in your backyard or at your Farmers’ market, you might also be having a lot of these fruits during this season, that you are thinking how to use. Eating the seasonal fruits is always advisable. Orange Sorbet is a very quick, easy and awesome palate cleanser / dessert recipe, which uses just a few ingredients.

Kutchi Dabeli

January 7, 2019 By Sonal 1 Comment

This lovely street food Kutchi Dabeli or Kachhi Dabeli has a crunch, and color, a burst of taste with spicy, sweet, sour, tangy and all the flavors in the universe!

Dabeli is one of the most loved snack/chaat items in India, and my personal favorite as well, has it’s origins in Kutch, Gujarat. It is a burst of flavors, textures, taste hidden in a humble Pav or bread bun. Once you try it, you cannot stop at eating just one!! It is an easy recipe with a lot of components or elements, which can be prepared ahead of time. A party pleaser, hit with the crowd and tastebuds – add this one to your next party and it is sure to be a winner. It can also be called Indian Burger as the concept is quite similar of stuffing the bread bun with patties, veggies, and condiments.
