Weekend Waffler

All that sizzles is dinner!!

Perfect weather, good company, and something sizzling on the grill. ☀️🔥 Nothing beats cooking outdoors on a day like this.

I am obsessed with the color and nutty flavor of this black rice payoxh (pudding) ever since I ate multiple bowls of it during my last visit to Assam. Stirring memories and simmering comfort in my Chandler, AZ kitchen 🍚✨
A pot of black rice gently cooking into payoxh, its deep purple hue slowly blooming as cardamom, milk, and a touch of sweetness come together. Far from home, yet so close to tradition—this bowl tastes like slow evenings, shared stories, and the kind of warmth that travels across continents. Proof that some recipes don’t need geography, just heart. 💜🥄
