comfort food recipes collection

It is mid December and winter is at its peak. Cold temperatures and early sunsets do not help much either. After a long day we all love to eat/drink something that comforts us and soothes our senses, like a bowl of piping hot soup,  some noodles or even dal with some warm rice – so here’s the comfort food recipes collection!
There is come magic in these kinds of food. It makes you feel comforted and suddenly lifts up your spirits. I have put together these recipes from FOI in this special comfort food recipes collection.

Comfort Food Recipes Collection:
Soups: What better type of food to start this collection than soups? Slurping on a bowl of soup is a blessing. Soups are made in heaven :) Try making these heavenly soups at home which give you warmth and comfort. Try cream of tomato soup with some croutons or even spinach soup. Why not go the Eastern way and make some pudina dal shorba or the English way with Potato Corn Chowder.

A full collection of soups available on FOI.
 
Dal and Kadhi: My favourite kind of comfort food. Whatever kind of food we eat we always crave for home food be it simple dal or the humble kadhi. Mixing this with plain steamed rice is just the perfect way to eat these simple dishes. Here are the recipes for simple dal fry and the humble kadhi

Noodles: For most folks, the go to noodles is ready-to-eat noodles. Simple and way to make. But how about making easy noodles with all the flavours that you like. Like these simple sesame noodles with Chinese flavours or this garlic spaghetti with Italian flavours. These noodles are so easy to cook and they get ready in no time at all and you get to control the flavours and add whatever you like. All noodles recipes from FOI available here
 
Rice and Curry: Again a collection of fragrant and aromatic curries served with rice that will make one feel comforted. Try Thai Green Curry with Oriental flavours or a local favourite, Rajma masala with super Punjabi flavours. These curries are filling and are wholesome. They can be loaded with vegetables or pulses/beans. You can also make a one-pot recipe like this creamy Spinach and Peas Risotto
Cheese Based Dishes: Cheese when eaten in moderate quantities can be very healthy. It can give you the correct amount of calcium intake your body requires. Consumed in correct quantities it is a boon. Avoid the processed variety and go for organically prepared cheeses. A big serving of mac n cheese or spinach cheese sandwich is the way to go. Oh so cheese-y! More cheese based recipes...

Bread Based Dishes: Toasted bread with butter. Pure comfort! Period! Try and make it a little fancy and turn your favourite toast into Cinnamon toast. That fragrant cinnamon flavoured butter on toasted bread makes your senses come alive. Of course what better than when you combine bread and cheese. Like mentioned in cheese based recipes above, try spinach cheese sandwich. Melting cheese soaked up by that warm bread. Oh my it's a treat. 

And why not? Everyone deserves a treat once in a while. It's your right. Go get it. Make these comfort foods and importantly, enjoy them! More bread based recipes...
