What comes to mind when you think of a burger? For me, it’s a magnificent dripping tower of meat and carbs, buried under veggies, oozing cheese, and an onslaught of condiments. What’s not to love about that? We eat juicy homemade burgers piled high with toppings all summer long. So much in fact, that it’s a travesty so few burger recipes are represented here on A Spicy Perspective. I’ve obviously dropped the ball the burger....

I have always been a big big fan of homemade seasonings. They’re easy to make and can be easily customized depending on your preference. Although store-bought seasonings are delicious, the thing that keeps me on my toes is the amount of salt. I can barely stand too much salt in any seasoning mix as they over power the real flavor. With homemade seasonings, I can certainly cut back the salt, adjust a few spice here and there to suit my liking....

About Green Peas Fresh green peas are one of my favourite vegetables. They add so much flavour and texture to a dish. Besides, green peas are high in fibre, vitamins, minerals, and proteins. It’s a green vegetable, after all. In India, green peas are an integral part of everyday comfort food. There are many Indian dishes made only during the winter season using fresh green peas. Across India, fresh green peas are abundant from October to February....

I personally love putting dressing on my vibrant green bowl of salad to have that smooth and zingy twist that completes it. But I often hear that people think of dressing as something unhealthy or too artificial. That’s why I wanted to make my own homemade yummy and healthy salad dressing.
