Kofta Dil Bahar: veggie dumplings bathed in iconic butter sauce
To follow up on my comment the other day about how it feels as though it’s not really Winter in Vancouver right now and how it should be Spring, I take it all back.

For the love of a caramelized onion: Sula’s Secrets
Despite how there’s no snow outside, it’s actually lovely out and how, sometimes, we can sneak out without a coat, it’s still technically Winter (I feel like I’ve made note of this before).

Just cause it’s wicked cold outside… Mulligatawny Soup Recipe
It’s funny how, myself included, people are taken aback by how incredibly cold it is outside. The other day a friend of mine commented on how Chinese New Year is suppose to coincide with a swap in wardrobe for something less Winter like.

Christmas Gift Idea: Chai Spice Kits

Cinnamon is not just for buns…
Often when I think of cinnamon, I think about cinnamon buns, the ones with thick cream cheese icing. It’s perhaps unfortunate that such a versatile spice is associated with a sweet, sticky and a relatively unhealthy healthy snack (although I must admit it’s one of my faves).

Facts about turmeric + Sula’s Coconut Chicken Recipe:
Vancouver doesn’t exactly have the climate required to cultivate one of Sula’s Indian Restaurant’s favorite spices, Turmeric. Note: turmeric requires a moist environment that has a temperature above 20°Celsius minimum year round. What Vancouver does have is a vibrant culinary community who can truly appreciate all of its magic. Turmeric is the type of spice […]

At Sula, our kitchen gets going early endless amounts of vegetables are cut, we caramelize what seems like a ton of onions (caramelized onions are key to all curries) and prep the spices that make the chai perfect. The prep that goes into curries like Bhaigan Bharta is no […]
