Eggs in Spiced Tomato Curry

This is the sort of dish best enjoyed family-style, around your kitchen counter on a Sunday morning, or for dinner with friends on a Friday night. Of course, there are all sorts of versions of this dish: shakshukha, huevos rancheros or eggs in purgatory. My version—fragrant with cumin and sumac—is a reflection of my Pakistani-Persian spice pantry. The beauty of this dish is that it comes together very fast; you prepare the spiced tomato base, and then gently drop the eggs in to cook in a warm tomato bath. The result is these perfectly poached eggs in a jammy tomato curry. I made my dish with Conestoga’s Farms’ Organic Eggs .

(These eggs are certified local by Foodland Ontario.) Before serving, adorn with sumac, it’s a spice which you...

PAKISTANI PAKORA (POTATO FRITTERS)

Ahhh the Pakistani pakora! These are the best Pakoras (aka potato fritters) you will ever eat. Yup, I am making that claim because they are, quite simply, the best I’ve ever had in the twin cities, either home or professionally made. They are so good, that I’m actually a wee bit hesitant to share this recipe, because that means relinquishing the title of best pakora maker. However, I am making this sacrifice for the greater good. The world needs more of these awesome Pakistani pakoras. There are way too many bland, tasteless pakoras out there. NO MORE. I say. It doesn’t get any more Pakistani than pakoras, my friends. With the rainy season upon us, the most Pakistani thing to do is eat pakoras and drink chai. It’s practically our patriotic duty. In commemoration of our beloved country’s 70th anniversary of Independence , I decided to share my beloved Pakistani pakora recip...
