When you have a husband whose passion for cooking and eating good food runs very high, who loves to explore new dishes and enjoys eating them with equal gusto…… the best thing you can do is to leave the kitchen in his able hands. No, it is certainly not possible on all days. No, it is not because he has work to do. But that’s because, my kitchen and my maids would not be able to handle the daily aftermath of a hurricane hit kitchen.
The kitchen is all his on Sundays. Right from breakfast to lunch or sometimes brunch and then dinner… he decides the menu and cooks too.
As for me, I either assist him by handing him the pots and pans, ingredients or books or simply sit and enjoy television or play games on laptop or read. Yes, I am lucky that way.
I get respite from thinking about the most irksome and perennial question, “What should I cook?” and also remain stress-free, for the food that is served is not under scanner. For a passionate chef like KG the food has to awesome and amazing, delicious and delectable ALL the time!
So, my fave thing to do on Sunday is to give the reins of the kitchen to KG and sit back and enjoy the dishes he dishes out…

That looks Yum… and having a husband who loves to cook is a blessing… especially for someone like me who is a lousy cook. :))
It sure was yummy!
Yes, it is good to have a husband who cooks 😀
You are one lucky lady! So, your Sundays must be filled with a lot of favourite things you like to do with all the time at hand and mind at rest from the perennial question of ‘what to cook!’
I am counting my blessings! 😀
Eggs are the only thing my hubby makes. So I do get to enjoy a morning away from kitchen on weekends too. 🙂

yumm!! 🙂
I love it when K cooks.. even the most basics like rice and rasam! Its always delicious!! 🙂
Looks so yummy….am drooling 🙂
LOL 😀
That must have been wonderful. My favorite- Potatoes and could you give the recipe for baked potato?
Here’s the recipe from the chef :
Take Amul Cream and milk… beat the mixture. Add thyme, oregano, chili flakes to this.
In a baking dish… add olive oil, spread a layer of sliced potatoes, add salt and pepper and pour the above mixture over it. Add grated cheese (Parmesan) and sprinkle Paprika.
Bake it in the oven for 40 minutes at 200 Degrees.
Try it out and let us know about it 🙂
You are certainly very very lucky 😀 Love the thought Shilpa.
Thanks Pallavi 🙂
Yesterday there was am interview of Samar Harlankar in Mumbai mirror where he was saying that at his place it is he who handles the reins of the kitchen at his home. He cooks for his wife (Priya Ramani)and when I read it all to my Hubby you know what he said? “If he cooks what does the wife do?” I was like, hello! when I cook what do you do??? 😀 We had a mini fight after that (all in jest though)So I shud show this post to him 😀
LOL 😀 You must show this post to him 🙂
Looks like awesomeness.
Tasted great too 🙂
Lucky Shilpa 🙂 You are treated to a chef special quite regularly 🙂
Oh yeah! Chef is happy and wifey is happy too 🙂
Lucky you.
It is inspiuration.May be I will try boiling an egg.
You must! 🙂
what do I say!! 🙂
amen!
I am remembering your post! 😀
I always envy wives whose husbands know how to cook. But then, you know I would rather cook myself to avoid the hurricane…LOL
LOL… agree, the agony on seeing a hurricane hit kitchen is greater than the happiness on eating a delicious dish (which is not cooked by you!) 😀
