“Time and again,
come joy, come pain
your smile, your words
of wisdom,
of life,
of the values
instilled in our minds
has taught me so much
that I can carry forward
your message
to my kids,
teach them
the values,
of living this life
with love,
with compassion,
with a purpose,
with passion”

One remarkable woman is on my mind today.A woman who has endured so much pain in the past few months..lost her husband,survived a life threatening health condition and still trying to recover,but yet she smiles in all her pain,yet she speaks of positivity,of happiness,of joy,of love.Yeah that’s my Mom.And I’m so grateful that I’m her child.

Brussles Sprouts Kofta

My mom makes the best Koftas ever.And today I thought of recreating her favorite recipe using Brussels Sprouts along with some dried sweetened cranberries and I’m elated that it turned out absolutely delicious.A new family favorite indeed!Its a special dish that requires a special occasion for it to be served.

My Brussels Sprouts Kofta is one amazing dish with some exotic flavors and super simple for anyone to try.I recently spotted sliced Brussels Sprouts at Trader Joe’s and couldn’t resist buying one pack.Its a time saver.The koftas have some spices, ginger and dried cranberries and are bound together using some Gram Flour (Besan) easily available at your local Indian Grocers.The combination of the tart, sweet,spicy flavors is insanely good and will convert any Brussels Sprouts hater into a Brussels Sprouts lover.The only thing that you have to be careful about is to not cook the koftas for too long in the sauce.They might collapse.You can add the koftas just before serving and cook for a couple of minutes.They should be perfectly coated in the juices and taste delicious.Enjoy.
