To be specific, this cardamom spiced iced coffee made with cold brew. This drink is so simple to make that… Read More

Instant Pot Keema
Keema is one of my favorite Indian recipes because of how very easy it is to make. I have a recipe for it in my Paleo Indian eBook, but I decided to adapt the dish to be Instant Pot friendly.

Instant Pot Indian Black Eyed Pea Curry
I grew up eating this Punjabi black eyed pea curry. It’s warm and comforting and the beans are so rich and buttery. This is my mom’s recipe – although, hers is slightly different every time she makes it because she doesn’t use “measurements” when she cooks (real deal Indian mamas don’t do the whole “measuring” thing). I’ve also adapted this… Read More

Golden Milk Popsicles
When I was a kid, I HATED turmeric milk, also known as haldi ka doodh. In my six-year-old mind, there was nothing “golden” about golden milk. I treated it like medicine, because that’s how my parents gave it to me. If I had a minor cold or a tummy ache, then you can bet my… Read More

I’m really excited to be starting a new series on the blog called “Indian Cooking 101.” These blog posts will be like going to a super fun virtual college class taught by me: Professor Ashley SINGH Thomas (um, just to clarify – I’m not really a professor). Also, I feel like I have to include my maiden name, Singh, to… Read More
