This month seems like a month of firsts for me as far as MyYellowApron is concerned.., I started off May with a Mother’s Day Round Up. Some amazing and established food bloggers contributed to the post. Check it out here if you want to cook a special Lunch/Dinner/Breakfast for your mom or any other special person in your life.
Second, I wanted a guest post and Vishal Amin is my first guest here. So happy to have him contributing as a guest. The guy is a genius – a globe trotter, a very successful businessman, a food stylist, a recipe developer and last but not the least – someone who not only likes to mix cocktails but also some amazing music.
Thank you, Vishal!
This is what Vishal Amin has to say about me – (I’m grinning from ear to ear by the way).
Aish is no more a Virtual Friend. Of course, we haven’t met yet. But she has been a friend whom I admire a lot.
Happy Birthday Aish 🎉
A Wife, A Mother, A Management Consultant…… No, it doesn’t end here…., A person who loves to Travel, loves to Read, loves Music… Over and above all of these, she is a great Cook and a Baker.
~ To eat is a necessity, but Cooking is an art.
She is a perfect example of an Artist. Even after a long stressful day, she would get in the kitchen and create an art. As she said, ‘I love it, and it’s a stress reliever too’. And yes I agree to that. :).
We always discuss food & food photography. She loves to share her secret tips and learn quickly from few words. Cocktails are our favorite topic to discuss 😉
Today I am sharing my favorite snack recipe for her, which my family has it for dinner as a light meal. One of my favorite ingredients is Beetroot. I love the color and flavors of bloody Red Beetroot. It’s is considered to be a healthy vegetable too. And today, I have used beetroot in my dish.
There are many ways you can make Kathi Rolls. It’s such a simple dish that you can innovate it with your own likings and ideas. Whenever I am traveling within India for work, I end up eating Kathi Roll. After a long day of work, would just settle in the hotel room and order it from In Room Dining.
Every kitchen has their own style and recipe to serve. The one I am sharing today is a mix of all and exactly the way I like it. And I am sure you will enjoy it too.
Cheers 🍷
