Savoury

The idea of tapas works pretty close to home for us – small plates of delicious flavor-packed foods shared with friends and family, only to go on to a larger spread laid on the table.

I’ve done something out of the box when I received my bottle of Japanese Yuzu Extract by SPRIG Gourmet. I thought tacos, mushrooms, and Japanese soya and yuzu! The mushrooms are cooked in butter with garlic and onions for a rich experience; the marinade then coats the meaty mushrooms for just the right amount of juiciness. The fresh coriander adds a burst of colour and freshness to balance it off against the mini tortillas!

These can be served in soft small taco shells, on flat tortillas or pushed into mini wraps – the choices are endless.

The Recipe
Serves 2

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Stir all the sauce ingredients together in a medium bowl and set aside.
  • Take a medium pan and place on low heat.
  • Add the butter to melt and add the onions and garlic to cook, until the onions are translucent and fragrant.
  • After a few minutes, add the mushrooms and turn the heat to high
  • the mushrooms and cook.
  • Then add the sauce and cook, stirring occasionally. After 5 minutes of so, most of the liquid must evaporate; turn off the heat and stir in the coriander.
  • Warm each tortilla on a non-stick pan.
  • Place a few spoons of the mushrooms on each round circle.
  • Garnish with a coriander leaf and serve.

This is a real surprise package flavour bomb. Previously I've been hesitant to integrate too much fruit into savoury dishes, but this combination of sweet grilled pineapples cubes with lot's of spicy chilies, soya, ginger, garlic and basil is a sheer delight. I also add in scrambled eggs because that just makes it perfect.

One morning I woke up craving scallion pancakes, and ever since, this has become breakfast at least once a week. The authentic version is a lot more pan fried than the one I do, simply because I do feel a bit of guilt, but for me, the taste does not differ too much, except perhaps it is less crispy and flaky than the authentic version.

Yes, I am catching onto the viral trends, albeit a lot later than many, but at least I finally am there! The baked feta idea came to me when I was consulting Toska Chocolate House when we started having feta in our ingredient list for a salad - one you must try if you’re in Ahmedabad. We serve it baked with homemade spicy tomato chutney, olives, herbs and lots of love! Feta is not my top choice cheese – not because of its taste, but rather the lack of shelf life. I’m a sporadic and moody eater, and we all know once you open that pack of feta, you pretty much need to inhale it within a day before it gets too sour. Which is why I have always refrained from buying it. This recipe I share here, is again stemmed from one of those nights where I found half a block of feta, just beginning to sour, so not suited for a cold salad. I thought, let’s bake it and see what happens. The flavours here are sweet, salty, spicy and crunchy – highlight is the fried almonds which is a sheer delight on its own, but even better here. This is one of those recipes that is put together by instinct rather than meticulous measurement – so keep that in mind when assembling and feel confident to adjust ingredient amounts as per your heart’s desire!
