Fenugreek seeds are often used as a spice and always in small quantities as it tends to have a slightly bitter aftertaste. But there are some traditional Indian dishes that use fenugreek as the main ingredient for its numerous health benefits. One such dish is Methi Dana ki Sabzi (fenugreek stir fry) - the seeds are washed thoroughly and then boiled to remove most of the bitterness, then stir fried with other spices and aromatics to prepare this really unique and delicious dish. Perfect with Indian flatbreads. Recipe link in bio.....

A few days ago, I was invited to try out the 'very grammable' but also delicious soft serves and dessert menu @aquas_au (Melbourne). Their signature flavour is the 'sea-salt' presented in the prettiest blue colour (the owner, Jennifer Lam developed this idea of a sea salt flavoured soft serve after visiting Okinawa, a Japanese island famous for its sea salt). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Apart from the signature sea salt flavour which is available at all times, there are also other flavours which are on rotation (the current ones are ovaltine and chocolate whiskey). And if you want something more decadent, you could try out the new dessert options like Breakfast Staple, Childhood Campfire, Off to the Movies, Festival of Lights (inspired by the Indian festival, Diwali). Check out my Instastories for more images.....

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
My favourite was the signature sea salt, the balance of flavours was really enjoyable. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Lately, I have been using the Vetta SMART Pasta for my weekly pasta meals. The range includes both high fibre and high protein varieties. One of my personal favourites is the Vetta SMART Fibre Veg Twists; made from Australian durum wheat semolina and oat fibre, it not only has twice the fibre content but also natural tomato and spinach flavours that makes it more flavourful. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
So I made this super simple and delicious bake - Pasta veg twists with sundried tomatoes, mildly spiced Hungarian salami, parsley almond pesto and topped with ovalini cheese. So yummmmm!

Achari Lamb Chops!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Lamb cutlets are often referred to as lamb chops in India, a cut of meat that's often considered indulgence. I am extremely fond of this cut because it has the perfect bone, flesh, fat ratio that makes it so delicious when cooked right. Lamb cutlets are great for curries too like this Achari chops which uses a lot of pickling spices along with an aromatic onion tomato mixture to form the base of the curry. The meat is cooked in two stages so that it's not overcooked and stays juicy and succulent. Pair it with Indian flatbreads or a good sourdough to dunk into the luscious gravy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

@cafeheide is one of my favourite places for a brunch/lunch catchup with friends or even just by myself. Set inside the beautiful and expansive @heidemoma, the cafe serves fresh, seasonal and delicious food, with many of the ingredients grown in the kitchen garden on the museum grounds. And because the menu is seasonal, there's always something new to try out. One of the dishes I tried out recently and enjoyed immensely was the Pan fried emperor fillet, fennel puree, soft green beans and olive tapenade. Another standout dish was the Iranian style calamari, date puree and smoked yoghurt.
