The Bread Series

 

I’m not going to be humble today and say it outright – I make the meanest apple chutney. I consider this my lucky dish – a surprisingly easy chutney with very basic ingredients. It is one of the first recipes I put up on this blog, it’s the chutney that got me a restaurant consultancy contract, and it’s also a dish that’s coming soon in another restaurant. And coincidentally enough, it’s the first episode that released in my association with India Food Network! So, yes, let’s just say, I’m quite attached to this one and for this collaboration, I think we reached a new level – grilled cheese in beetroot bread by Le Artisan Boulangerie, crisped up in a waffle machine!

This beetroot sliced bread is delicious on it’s own with just a slather of butter for a fancy maska bun, but in this sandwich, it outdoes itself! Pairing this gorgeous apple chutney, with Red Leicester cheese lending it’s slight spiciness, creates fireworks in the mouth!

If you want to serve sandwiches to a bunch of fancy people – this one’s it!

Ingredients

  • 2 beetroot bread slices
  • red Leicester cheese, grated
  • olive oil to brush
  • 1 1/2 cups diced or grated apples
  • 1 onions, finely chopped
  • 2 tsp mustard seeds
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/2 tsp hing
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric

  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp vegetable oil

Instructions

  • Heat the oil with mustard seeds.
  • Once they start popping, add the hing, bay leaf, red chilli flakes, cinnamon stick and stir.
  • Then add the turmeric, sugar and apples. Stir until coated with masala.
  • Add the apple cider vinegar and stir a few times and let cook for at least 15 minutes, until softened and resembles a chutney.
  • Spread the apple chutney on one slice of bread, followed by a generous amount of cheese. Cover with the second slice.
  • Heat the waffle machine. Brush some olive oil on the waffle plates and place the sandwich and let heat for around 4-5 minutes, or until the cheese have melted and the waffle print has occurred.
  • Remove, slice and serve.

I have always been the biggest fan of cinnamon rolls for special occasions, but my general cravings are usually for cheese-y salty, garlicky decadence. and bread is a forever love affair. so this recipe is adapted from one of my original cinnamon roll recipes, but a tad bit sturdier to hold the heavier wet filling these will fly off the cooling rack faster than you can say kitchen therapy!

This is a meal I make often just for myself. I love mac+cheese and it is very much a part of my dinner roster menu. I love mixing it up with various ingredients, but the one I love the most is adding lot's of sautéed leeks which adds such intense flavour and I still feel I have eaten my greens (pls no, don't believe me, this amount is not enough, pls add a green soup on the side!) This recipe mentions macaroni, but I use whatever pasta I have and I am partial to spaghetti at times!

A mashed potato cake is a dreamer's paradise. I found an Italian nonna's recipe for a mashed potato bake layered with ham and cheese, baked into a crusty glory - and I had to try it instantly. Of course, I had to add my version with a layer of colourful vegetables in the center and so here we have a baked savoury potato cake! And maybe one day, this version will be Kamini nonna's recipe for my grandchildren ;)
