    What makes hot and sour Noodles HOT?

    The heat in this hot and sour noodles comes from red pepper flakes and hot pepper sauce. The noodles has to be on the hotter side. The sourness comes from adding vinegar right at the end. If you add the vinegar in the beginning or towards the middle, the vinegar will evaporate during cooking. Which is why we add the vinegar right at the end.

    These noodles will be your new go-to. Take it to work for lunch, take it to cookouts, make it for your family dinner. Trust me – you’ll knock their socks off with this one.

    Hot and Sour Noodles Recipe
    1. Prepare the ingredients (this is the most time-consuming part of the recipe, but then it goes very quickly):
    Chicken: Cut chicken breast into 1-inch cubes, mix with ginger garlic paste, egg white, Cornflour, soy sauce, chili sauce, vinegar, red pepper and salt to taste.  You can cook right away or leave to marinate for 30 minutes to blend flavors.
    Vegetables: Chopped ginger and garlic and cut onion, capsicum, and Tomato in ¼ inch cubes and keep aside.
    Hot and Sour Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk all the sauce ingredients, 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup tomato ketchup, 2 tablespoon hot pepper Sauce, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon Vinegar, salt and Pepper to taste, chili flakes. Set aside.
    Egg Noodles: Cook the egg noodles in boiling water, add a little salt, cook for 5-7 minutes, then strain.

Take it from the oil. It‘s important not to overcook the chicken, otherwise, the coating will be slightly burned, cook it only until it changes its color to golden brown.
    3. Saute Ginger & Garlic: Add ginger garlic paste in remaining oil to the same pan, and saute for 30 seconds, until lightly browned. Then add 1/2 cup of water, hot pepper sauce, soy sauce and red chili flakes. Let it simmer for 2 minutes or until all water dries up.
    4. Stir Fry Vegetables: Add onion, capsicum, tomato and cook for 1-2 minutes, until lightly tender and browned, but still a little crunchy (they should not be completely cooked).
    5. Add Fried Chicken: Add the fried chicken pieces back to the pan, and the tomato ketchup and vinegar. Stir well.
    6. Add Noodles: Add the cooked noodles and toss everything together.
    7. Final Step: Transfer to into serving bowl. Top with olives and sprinkle some red flakes. Enjoy! 🙂

  • Restaurant Style Tawa Fish Recipe

    This Restaurant Style Tawa Fish is a thing of beauty, with its crispy golden crust and spicy, juicy flesh inside. It’s a super quick and can be ready in less than 20 minutes and tastes just like the restaurant’s you would think it’s  take-out. Recreate your favorite Tawa Fish cheaper and better at home!

    Restaurant Style Tawa Fish

    One of the things I find so much fun about food blogging as a living is putting myself up to the challenge of recreating restaurant favorites at home. Although often involving a series of trial and error, it’s very rewarding to come up with a homemade version that’s pretty close to, if not better, than the original.

    Restaurant Style Tawa Fish

    The way I cook this Tawa Fish is a little unorthodox – but it’s a highly effective, no fail method! A blast of heat in a griddle pan and a basting of mustard oil and fish own juices does wonders for plain fish.

    This Restaurant Style Tawa Fish is made with a basic combination of rice flour and desi seasonings. Don’t be fooled by the simplicity of this dish. The fish fries up crispy and delicious. The cooking time is so short that the smell — which, if your fish is fresh and not funky, should not be overpowering — will dissipate quickly. And in the meantime, you have an easy dinner of spicy fish with a toothsome crust, anointed with rice flour and spices, mustard oil , perfumed with fresh Lemon wedges, paired with apricot chutney and naan.

    Restaurant Style Tawa Fish

    Rohu and Catla (Thela) Fish are two excellent choices for Tawa Fish, but baam, cod, or any other mild white fish should work fine. You can use any fish but my preference is rohu, skin on or off, as long as it is not too thick. Be careful not to overcook thin fillets.
    If the fish starts browning too fast, reduce the heat and add a splash of mustard oil to prevent scorching, or squeeze in the juice of half a lemon.

    How to cook Perfect Tawa Fish every time!

    1. Use a heavy duty Griddle (Tawa) – it DOES NOT need to be a non stick griddle or pan! Contrary to popular belief, it’s not just about using a non stick pan. A thin, cheap non stick pan will cause the fish to be in closer and harsher contact with the stove, causing the fish to brown unevenly in the few minutes it’s on the stove. Some crispy patches, some not so crispy ones.
    Use a heavy duty Griddle (Tawa), like a cast iron pan or a good quality, heavy non stick frying pan. I love my Griddle Pan, it heats better, and more evenly, which really helps to get an even, golden, crispy crust.

    2. Heat the pan first before adding the oil – I have NEVER had problems with fish sticking to the pan since I adopted this technique. It’s just an easy way to ensure the oil is hot enough but not too hot (a common mistake people make).
    To do this, just heat a dry pan, and as soon as you see small wisps of smoke, add oil, swirl to coat base, then immediately add the fish.

    3. If it sticks a bit, do not move until it naturally releases – Most fish fillets will initially stick to the pan as they start to cook (unless you’re using so much oil you’re basically shallow frying them). But it naturally releases once the surface is cooked and golden.
    So give it a nudge, and if it doesn’t want to move, then it means that it’s not ready. So just leave it and try again in another 15 seconds or so!

    4. Pat fish dry – Dry fish = crispier surface. Especially important for thawed frozen fish.

    5. Keep Basting with a little oil and its own juices –  it will gives nice juicy flavor.

    Packed generously with a crunchy coating but there is so much more to it than what meets the eye! The flavor beneath the crunchy golden layer is delicious because of the magical spice that hits you with the first bite!! This is one fish that everyone is sure to love. Using this Restaurant Style Tawa Fish recipe, you’ll get perfectly flavored tawa fish.

    Sauces or Chutney For Tawa Fish

    With well seasoned crispy golden texture outside and spicy juicy flesh inside, I don’t need anything more than a squeeze of fresh lemon. But I am a sauce person, so I never turn down a sauce even for fish! Here are my few favorite Sauces for Tawa Fish:

    • Apricot Chutney (Khubani Ki Chutney) for Tawa Fish – this is an absolute ripper. Totally restaurant worthy, few ingredients, the secret is to soak apricots before preparing the chutney.
    • Mint Tamarind Chutney for fish – a shop stopper kind of chutney with its tangy Minty flavor – made with fresh mint leaves and tamarind pulp.
    • Imli ki Chutney – traditionally thought of for fried fish but equally good with the Tawa Fish.
    • Data Chutney / Khajoor ki Chutney – This smooth chutney, which balances the tartness of vinegar with the sweetness of dates, is a delicious accompaniment to the Tawa Fish & Naan.
    • Brown Chutney – for Fish Mellow down the spice of fish by adding a little brown chutney.
    • Lemon Chutney  for Fish. Lip-smacking chutney to add more zesty flavor to Tawa Fish. It’s finger licking good!

    This Restaurant Style Tawa Fish recipe is ‘sea’riously worth trying , it’s cheaper to make at home and tastes so much better!

  • Flavorful Chinese Restaurant-Style Recipes You Can Make at Home

    Flavorful Chinese Restaurant-Style Recipes You Can Make at Home

    Chinese food in Pakistan isn’t quite the same as the real thing; it’s more of a cultural offshoot developed to cater to Pakistani tastes. But the general cultural nuances remain — if perhaps in a more deep-fried form. Whether or not this cuisine can really be called “Chinese” is a subject for debate, but at least we can all agree on calling it “delicious.” You don’t need to order take-out or head to your favorite Chinese restaurant every time you get a yen for Fried Rice or Chinese Soup or Sweet and Sour Chicken.
    Below are a few staples of foods found on Chinese menus across the country. Soon enough, you’ll be replicating your favorite dishes right in your own kitchen!

    11. Beef and Broccoli  – One of the original favorites! Didn’t think I would forget this one, did you? How do restaurant chefs get the beef so tender in this dish? They “velvet” the meat in hot oil before combining it with broccoli in an oyster-flavored sauce.

    Assalam-o-Alaikum, how are you? Yep, it’s been almost a month since we met. First things first…I had my mid-term exams, so I was lil busy with studying and the other stuff in my life.
    However this gap between us wasn’t planned. I was hoping to catch up with you in between, but it didn’t work out.

    My celebration “yay, exam is over!”

    Finally exams are over I’m finally free to do whatever I want (blogging, eating yummy food, spending time with my plants)😌
    Anyways, the first thing I wanted to do was to just pop in here & say a quick hi to you. I hope you roll into the weekend in a joyous mood! May your day be as fantastic as you are!

    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)

    To release some exams stress, I made this butter karahi by twisting my Father’s recipe…delicious goodness. Can’t wait to share it with you. He used to make the best food. He was an expert on how to make a really good Butter Chicken. Saying that, I’m not too sure how He would feel about this Karahi Butter Chicken version that I’m currently loving.

    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)
    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)

    Name me one thing that doesn’t taste better with a few dollops of cream, a knob or so of butter, a splash of milk, lashings of ghee.

    I’ll bet you’re having a hard time thinking up something. It’s a truth of the culinary world that these things all enhance the eating experience of many foods, sweet and savory foods alike and curries are no exception to this.

    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)
    Karahi Butter Chicken (Makhni Karahi)

    Take this Karahi Butter Chicken ( Makhni Karahi), for example. I’ve taken the traditional Chicken Karahi dish and made it the way we all love, with the very flavours we all adore and then finished it up with a hearty amount of butter. What does this do? This fills every bite with the very same flavours we desire, along with a moreish, rich bite to it. Every bite tastes like a buttery dream, I tell you. This creamy and velvety gravy will melt in your mouth.

     Recipe Note’s

    My final words before I give you the recipe – my Father was an expert at Karahi’s and he always told me what with chicken Karahis, you must work fast. Have all the ingredients chopped up beforehand if you can, and cook the entire thing on high heat. Stirring constantly is imperative, otherwise you risk burning the curry or having it stick to the pan. Skimp on half the oil or butter if  you must, but I wouldn’t recommend it as a Karahi dish isn’t truly a Karahi dish without its butter or oil.

    I have also posted Restaurant Style Lahori Mutton Karahi and Kebab Karahi which are another easiest & tastiest version of making Karahi at home. Do check it out as well.  It’s finger lickin’ good. You’ll be coming back for more.
