Paal Payasam (3-Ingredient Rice Pudding)
There is a rather endearing practice common to almost all communities in India. At the first hint of anything positive and good in the horizon, any good news—a promotion at work, good grades in school, a college acceptance letter, news of a distant relative's pregnancy, the Indian cricket team scoring a win, doesn't matter what—30 minutes later there invariably will be a sweet dessert ready to share as a thanksgiving. In my house, it's a simple rice pudding known as paal payasam. Its a snap to make. Its not quite as thick as the English version, more like a thick soup.

Thick Crispy Fried Potatoes
These crispy fried potatoes are what we crave for every season, at least once per season. Sometimes we would make really thin ones, otherwise exactly these, a bit thicker. Thank you Heston Blumenthal for doing the research for us, on how to make the perfect homemade fries. In our opinion, these give a bit more of a homemade feel, but not because they would be random, and not delicious, no, no, no. Every bite represents the perfect indulgence, that our soul and body need from time to time. So here you go, our version of a perfect three stage fries.

Perfect Peach Pie
Eat a perfect peach under the summer sun and you'll experience the fruit at its messy, dripping, sugar-bright best. Rinse your chin and understand that no melon, apricot or blackberry can compete. But how often does this happen? For most of us, a great and truly perfect peach is a rare event. We can expect but one or two a season, for all our trying. Enter the pie. A peach pie can elevate good peaches to excellence and great ones to the sublime. Even a peach pie made with frozen fruit is a terrific thing. The addition of sugar helps; so, too, do a dash of lemon juice and a light sprinkle of nutmeg, which offers a slight bitterness to offset the sweet. Add a crown of vanilla ice cream for a perfect diner-style à la mode effect.

Pineapple Persimmon Sorbet
When we moved into this house I had never eaten a persimmon before in my life. But the persimmon tree in the backyard was so prolific I was harvesting about 50 of them a week! We just couldn't eat them fast enough. It was like Lucy and Ethel in the chocolate factory. Sure enough, a bag of persimmons I had on the windowsill got so overripe that they were oozing out of their skins. Necessity became the mother of invention and this healthy and delicious sorbet was born.
Strawberry-Lemon Radler
The radler—a refreshing combination of beer and lemonade (or citrus soda) is a great summertime drink, and I believe it is a perfectly acceptable breakfast/brunch drink.

Watermelon Cake
Transform a watermelon into a delicious cake! This is a healthy dessert that is luxurious, juicy and perfect for summer. For firmer frosting - refrigerate your frosted watermelon cake for at least 2-3 hours before serving. Go over the frosting again with a small spatula or back of a large spoon to smooth it out. To make it sweeter - add 1 tbsp of raw honey to the coconut cream before whipping. For a mini version - slice the watermelon into thick slices and use a can to cut out small watermelon cakes. If you don't have watermelon - use cantaloupe or honeydew!
Nakedly Steak
