Fish steak

As said in my previous posts my little boy is a fan of fish recipes. And when it comes to steaks, he doesn't have a second option. This time I prepared the steak with asparagus and a sweet tangy sauce prepared at home and I had a guest at my home, my almost and always welcomed guest, yes my bestie Annie. The entire day cooking was done chit chatting with her, she being the moral support for all the experimenting. When we are together, there is not even a single moment without talking and cracking jokes.
The fish of my choice for steaks is one with thick flesh and which can be cut without thorns easily. I used seer fish fillets this time. The sauce preparation was instant and there was no plan on what all should go in it. I opened my refrigerator and found apple cider vinegar, and the common sauces, mustard paste, and onion powder and I decided, ahh ok, I am gonna toss my fish fillets in this and try out the steak.
 This fish steak went for a 2 step baking. First of all in the baking tray with the fish in sauces, asparagus and a generous  drizzle if olive oil. The second time it went on high heat in sizzler pan.
I served this fish steak with home made brown bread and white sauce. And I haven't seen any pieces left over, right after 10 mins I started serving :D It turned out the best fish steak I ever made.

Over to the recipe now.

Fish, cut into 1 cm thick fillets - 6 pieces

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

Grilled Chicken in Quinoa Tortilla wrap

Healthy meal preparation is so satisfying, as we know we are feeding our loved ones with clean food. When I say clean food it does mean, non processed, with balanced nutrients, and not in expense of the taste. These healthy tortilla wraps are so yummy that you will not even imagine it has so many hidden good stuffs in it. I am like my mom, she is too smart to hide the good stuffs in whatever she prepares and we will not even know what we just ate had something which we hate if given in its form. Now I have acquired that smartness too and just few days back I prepared an Avocado Mango smoothie for one of my colleague and she told, "I hate Avocados! My mom would be surprised if she comes to know that I had Avocado. But how yummy your smoothie is ! " I was glad that I could make someone eat a healthy thing which they hated ever, and my hiding skills worked out.  The same lady was fooled by my papaya halwa, she is a papaya hater too :P Fooling people is good som
