This is one of the most adorable breads I have baked! These supersoft , flavourful,festive Spiced Pumpkin Bread rolls are just in time for Thanksgiving- whether you celebrate or not 🙂 Aparna aptly chose these for the our monthly bread baking group-We knead to Bake. Thank you Aparna, I had so much fun making them. As gorgeous as they look, they are quiet easy to make. Apart from looking like mini pumpkins, these rolls use Pumpkin puree too.

Modur Pulav for Regional Indian Home cooking series#1- a guest post by Anshie of Spice Roots
We are celebrating Nine years of Homestyle cooking at My Foodcourt! I have always been fascinated by the variety of the regional delicacies cooked in Indian homes. When I started blogging, we had a few events like the RCI that showcased regional cooking and which also introduced me to the different delicacies cooked in Indian homes.

Vegetable Tagine with Harisa
This is a warm up to the 7-day recipe marathon initiated by Nupur, at One Hot Stove. Just making sure I haven’t forgotten writing posts!

Some Google research and I was tempted to use it immediately; Hit the bulls eye with this recipe for Vegetable Tagine with…
Apricot Prune Tea Cake

Prunes and Apricots add a chewy texture to the cake and help to keep the cake moist. We loved the nutty walnut flavour which also added crunch to the cake. I found the recipe here. I have followed the recipe except that I did not use the ½ tsp salt as suggested. Also I used almost ½ cup of milk instead of ¾ as recommended in the recipe and my baking time…
Cauliflower Curry
I am back after a long hiatus (the longest since I started blogging). A short trip to Coorg and then some unavoidable reasons kept me away from the blogoshpere. But now things are under control and I hope I am able to post regularly. Here’s a very simple and quick Cauliflower curry to make a spicy comeback on My Foodcourt! The addition of spices like cinnamon and pepper dominate the strong Cauliflower smell. This is one of my favourite ways to cook cauliflower hope you like it too. __________________________________________________________
