Indian Food Court

My favorite food bloggers

1.       Nupur from One Hot Stove She writes from the wonderful city of St. Louis. I love her recipes because her cooking style is close to mine. Effervescent, bubbly and quick. She uses few ingredients all of which I can find in my pantry and her recipes have always been a success. Like the broiled tofu, I made for the birthday party

Yesterday night I made a quick version of her Indianized egg salad and we loved eating it filled in soft pita packets.

2.       Indira from mahanandi,. She writes from Houston, Tx and I love this because of the southern twist to her cooking. Her way of tempering and daals is so different from what we are used to in the North. For instance, she will always mesh her daal to a smooth consistency while we prefer to keep grains separate. Also she will always use mustard seeds for tempering while our tempering is usually limited to cumin.

I have cooked her baghara baigan, mirchi ka salan, stuffed bellpeppers and so much more. She introduced me the lovely split green peas and making peanuts based gravies.

3.       What’s for Lunch Honey….Meeta writes from Weimar, Germany, I love the way she writes and her photographs are drool worthy, Her desserts are the most elegant I have ever seen in pictures and transpose me in heaven with there beauty and lust.

Alas, I haven’t tried much of her recipes because of the different measurements in metric system and because she uses ingredients that I don’t have offhand in my pantry. But Still I love love reading her blog and oohing and aaing over her marvelous desserts

4.       Hooked on Heat: Meenakshi writes from Canada and her Indo Chinese fusion recipes are simply amazing. I have tried her Gobhi Manchurian, vegetable chowmin and pepper mushrooms and every single dish has left us licking our fingers. Her cooking style and recipes are close to mine and I use them to add a slightly new twist to my everyday food. Not to mention she writes beautifully and artistically with a short sweet version of her parent’s love marriage or about the lovely couple.

5.                   Mad Tea Party: Anita writes from Delhi, India and takes me back to the city where I spent four years before coming to US. Her dialogues about Delhi’s fresh fruit and veggies transforms me into memory lanes , Not to mentions she throws fabulous parties. Her chana masala recipe is a keeper and so is the vaghreli mirchi.

The list is not exhaustive, I love reading Musical from musical’s kitchen, Trupti from spice who loved me, Shammi from Food in the main, Kalyn from kalyn kitchen , Jai and Bee from jugalbandi , Asha from Aroma and so many more. The world of food blogs is amazing; you just can’t stop reading once you have started.

About the name, Orange and Bronze is such a vibrant and pleasing color experience, something that soothes and satisfies you from within, the same aroma I hope my cooking will provide and theme, the Banana smoothie, is my favorite drink, one that I relish making again and again
