Daring Bakers May 2012: Vegan Whole Wheat Challah Bread | Eggless Baking

The Daring Bakers group has been one of my favourite foodie groups in the blogosphere. They have given me some wonderful ideas for bakes, amazing recipes, and great opportunities to bake with friends and foodies delicious eats that one might never attempt alone!! The May Daring Bakers Challenge was just one such challenge. Having never baked a challah loaf before, I was truly excited about May at the Daring Bakers. All the recipes offered by Ruth were so beautiful that I could not decide which one to go for. Finally I made a whole wheat vegan version of Ruth's "Go To" Whole Wheat Challah!

Matar Aloo Tamatar ki Sabzi | Potato Peas and Tomato Stir Fry

Matar Aloo is a classic in the North Indian Kitchen. There are so many ways in which it is prepared in Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, and UP. The recipe I have today is a classic Matar Aloo from UP. The vegetable is a staple of the diet there. It is made with tomatoes for a delicious tanginess, and the ginger, garlic, and green chilies, all add to the flavour. This Sabji | Sabzi is best enjoyed with hot rotis or parathas, freshly chopped salad, and some plain yogurt on the side.
