Introducing me, as a food blogger!

Hello ...

I am taking this opportunity to introduce myself as a food blogger.

I am not new to this place; most of my friends know me as a random blogger and I am pretty much active here. This time, I am starting on a blog focussed on food. I am a passionate cook who loves to experiment a lot in food, and I appreciate and embrace almost all cuisines world wide.

I am already representing a food site with my tested recipes in Facebook, but because there is no option to search for my recipes, I am sharing it here. I want all my readers to have easy access and my recipes handy 😊

As you can see, I am passionate about many things other than cooking, but cooking is something which always gives me pleasure. Cooking is my stress reliever, as one of my friend used to advice me, "Go bake a cake, you will be Alright"!

I am not yet sure to call myself as a food blogger, as I think there are ton of things yet to be learned and experienced as a cook and each day is a new learning to it. I might be missing many ethics and principles as a food blogger, but definitely I do have a bunch of them, which I am sure that any foodie would appreciate.

To mention, some of them are, don't label a food as healthy if it is not, be transparent with what you are cooking. Don't waste food :) I don't hate any ingredients of food, and I am really surprised when people are selective about some oils, coz I think the authentic recipe demands it's own authentic ingredients.

Just like Jeff Bezos' Day 1 theory, I think everyday is a brand new day with lot of opportunities to embrace, lots of hurdles to face, lots of learnings, and of course these needs an open heart to accept new things and has excitement to know more. I think whichever your area of interest may be, Day 1 really applies.

So with an open mind to embrace and learn new things, I am opening my food blog, "The Pink Café"  and expecting support from all my loved ones. Thanks a lot for all the support and love that you guys have been giving me, without which I wouldn't have got the confidence in opening up something like this, which is not even my main stream of job.

With love,
Swathy
The Pink Café

Ayala Pollichathu - Mackerel roast in plantain leaves

This is yet another traditional Kerala recipe, in which fish is roasted in plantain leaves. There is a two step process in cooking fish, first by shallow frying and then roasted inside a plantain leaf covered with masalas. So my experience with pollichathu was with Karimeen alone until this time, my favorite fish, which is called Pearl spot in English. All these while I haven't tried any other fish for this recipe. So let me tell you the story of how Ayala came into picture :D This happened on one fine day, my mom in law was telling me that the women who brings fish has brought lots of Mackerel and many other fishes and convinced her to buy a lot of them. So she was in a confusion on what will we do with all these, as weekend was almost going to finish and everyone of us moving to different places. And the same curry or fry would be boring and won't be appreciated by the men's league at home :D Then I went for helping her with the fish dilemma, she was having and

Egg biryani

Biriyani - The most rated and loved dish in India. Be it north or south, biriyani fan club chain is impossible to break. Now I am going to expose one secret about me and Biriyani. I know once I reveal, there would be a lot of haters for me, but this is just my personal opinion and I am all in support for all its supporters. So the thing is growing up, the name of biriyani was like a hype which hit me, and I remember craving for biriyani back then. I used to think, oh man; who discovered this wonderful dish. But lately, I think I lost the love for biriyani, not only biriyani but sort of all Arabic food. I am not a big fan of arabic cuisine, even though the foodie in me can eat any food and respect and appreciate every cuisine; for some reason the ingredients of Arabic cuisine is not going well with my taste palette as well as tummy. But I m a big supporter of food lovers, and having the core fans of Arabic food at home, I have to prepare, but I love preparing as well. Coz for me what

Sweet potato noodle soup authentic Japanese way

The dish that made me feel so proud about myself. Sweet potato noodle soup prepared in authentic Japanese way, from the scratch. I really felt like a 5 ⭐️ chef 👩‍🍳 today . Such a comforting food for a gloomy cold day. Finally the art of assembling was so satisfying and then diving to the soup bowl 🍲  I used chopsticks 🥢 to maintain the authentic Japanese way 🥰 Topped with fish filets pan roasted 🐟  #sweetpotatonoodlessoup The ingredient list would be a little overwhelming as everything is made from scratch, but these are worth to be stocked as these are base for most of any Asian cuisine. I prepared a veggie stock, some of my favourite veggies blanched and fish as topping. So let’s start prepping the ingredients for our noodle soup.  Noodles   I used sweet potato noodles - 70 gms which when cooked would be around 3/4 to 1 cup Water for boiling - 3 cups  Veggies   Cut the veggies julienned  I used radish, onion, spring onion, celery, g
