T his month my blog turns 8, and I am so happy and glad that I started this blog through which I came to know many of you. I never thought that this space, which I started to share my own passions will go this long. This blog has become a key part of my life where I share all my joys, sorrows, nostalgic memories. Through this blog, I have met some incredible people, both online and offline, I have tasted the most amazing food from all over the world. Thanks to all of you for showing your love and support to my small space. To celebrate this occasion, I thought of making the popular Danish snack called Aebleskivers, which I first ate when we visited Solvang, a beautiful Danish village near Los Angeles. While we were walking through the streets of Solvang, I read about these fluffy, donut hole type goodies, which are very popular Denmark snacks, that are made during the Christmas season. As I took a bite of these little cute delicacies, I decided that these should be posted in

K ilikood/ Birds nest is a classic traditional Malabar snack which is very popular and is liked by all. The shape of this kilikood makes it very unique from other snacks.  A perfect blend of meat, potatoes, and spices, that are shaped and indented, which is later dipped in egg batter and pressed with roasted vermicelli to get the exact shape of birds nest. This requires a lot of patience and time. This is made on special occasions in Kerala. This is my first attempt and it came out pretty well. I made this for a food fest here in the US, where a bunch of people was organizing a Kerala food fest for the Kerala flood relief. I want to contribute and so myself and my friend decided to make these birds nest, which was a super hit. For the food fest, lots of Malabar dishes were made by different members, which were sold out within minutes. This birds nest is very different from other Kerala snacks is because of its unique shape. This is also called as Semiya cutlet. My famil
