Jaggery and Cardamon Banana Cake
To make this cake divine, use bananas that are very ripe – the ones that have brown flecks on the peel. Bananas contain tryptophan, an amino acid that helps your body produce serotonin, a natural substance that has a calming effect on the brain and can act as a gentle sedative. I used dark jaggery and used a fine grater to grate it. Go on try baking this cake.

Spring Onion and Chives Shakshuka
I would add in one or two jarred anchovies for that added umami. Let us say you don’t get the eggs set the way you want, just pour in beaten eggs and make a scramble out of it – it is equally tasty but don’t forget to add a knob of butter!
