I had onion rings for the first time in a hospital cafeteria. From that I just loved it. I always wanted to try it. I gave it my touch using whole wheat flour and Indian flavour.

I made it as a starter, but it’s a great appetizer. You can dip the veggies or bread and enjoy!! Hummus+veggies=awesome!!  I hope you enjoy it.

Stuffed Avocado courtesy of koolkosherkitchen
There is plenty of substance to stuffed avocados, though, and plenty of goodness, too, but just like the “stuffed shirt” scarecrows, they could be stuffed with anything you have on hand. In my case, it’s tuna.

Banana Flower Patties courtesy of PriyaPandian
Vaazhaipoo/Banana flower patties are a healthy and best starter.  Every part of the plantain tree has its own health benefits and most of them are edible.

Hot tostones will be a great appetizer on their own, topped by those delicious chunks of garlic, served on a bed of greens with some fresh cilantro sprinkled on top.  But they are just as good as a side dish..

Hariyali Paneer Tikka courtesy of Smart Veg Recipes
Hariyali Paneer Tikka is mouthwatering tikka recipe of paneer. Originated from North India. In hariyali paneer tikka use fresh green paste, yogurt, lemon juice; which gives  refreshing flavors. Hariyali paneer tikka is not like other paneer tikka because in hariyali paneer tikka, garam masala is not used and secondly it cook in less time.
