This recipe requires a wee bit more of an effort compared to the other ones.

Gently sautéing the pumpkin bits in some lovely butter, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and a hint of vanilla, the aroma will fill your kitchen and you will surely feel Christmas has come again!

As the pumpkin mixture has enough sugar and flavours, there’s no need to add more into the oats mixture – the flavours blend well enough.

This is a great breakfast option to make for a large table, particularly if you want to impress houseguests.

The first time I made just one jar for myself, not sure if anyone else would like it, I woke up to a well scraped out jar – Someone got to it first!!

I admit the taste for pumpkin pie is an acquired one, but dressed up in Christmas spices it gives you a nostalgic feel, and the caramelized butter in the pumpkin provide the perfect amount of sugar rush in the AM.

And who knows, maybe your husband or child (is there a difference, some may ask) may surprise you by thoroughly enjoying this.

Plum season is here and a poached plum is quite desirable in the cool early mornings. pairing with good old fashioned oatmeal, i love this hearty breakfast. i drizzle more honey than necessary to combat the tart plums, and the crunch of pistachios on top is the best!

Oatmeal in a mithai flavour format? This is a real killer with the elderly who love sweets, but need a bit of fibre alongwith. I make the oatmeal the old-fashioned way in water with a pinch of salt, and for flavour i char-grill pineapple bits, add kesar, elaichi, badam and pista. If you like, add a dash of malai at the end and stir well! All the richness without the guilt!

Pumpkin Leek + Sage Frittata

Whenever I get my hands on a packet of fresh herbs I like to use them up in all ways possible before they get spoilt. Sage is one of my favourite – goes in eggs, pastas, potatoes, cocktails, into a syrup, on fruit with some salt and sugar – the possibilities are endless. But my honest favourite way is pairing sage with pumpkin – a match made in true heaven. I sauté up the pumpkin slices with garlic, leeks and then the sage is added in for its delightful warm, peppery delicious flavours. The egg batter goes in with some peas and cheese and always, always a pinch of nutmeg to make a delicious frittata. I have this for dinner multiple times a month – but if you have a brunch party – go ahead whip this one up!
