Malido, a wheat flour based pudding that is served up at most Parsi religious occasions. The traditional recipe takes hours to make. Luckily, this shortcut version yields a delicious result too!
Tea-time
Creamy Parsi Chicken Puff
Grantroad’s cozy little Parsi shop, PAC is one of the things I miss most about Mumbai. Especially their Chicken Puff. Here’s my tribute to PAC with a home style version of Parsi Chicken Puff that’s more creamier and meatier.
Ghee Gor na Lollypops
Made with just ghee and jaggery, these simple lollypops have stood the test of time. A rare treat my parents and grandparents both remember enjoying.

Ghau nu Doodh Custard
Ghau nu Doodh (Wheat Milk Extract) is a protein laden superfood had over the years by Parsis. In its traditional form as a jelly it can be quite unpalatable for kids and hence here’s a unique Ghau nu Doodh Custard which packs in nutrition while being super tasty.
Eeda Pak (Egg Fudge)
Parsis have a deep love for their eedu and they have even managed to create a “Pak’’ of the same. With the revered egg being healthy once again, isn’t it perhaps the perfect time to revive the once loved Eeda Pak?
