Fried Potato Cakes with Spinach and Cheese

These melt in your mouth goddesses are made with a mixture of mashed potatoes, cheese, spinach and seasonings, covered with a bread crumb coating. That crispy golden crunch on the outside, and a messy lil silky potato on the inside…is ladies and gentleman why I became a food blogger.

Whats up gang? @jet.set.eat challenged a bunch of us to put up something pink for #pinktober.
.
My bowl of beetroot hummus should do the trick. 😊 Didn't really follow a recipe honestly. Just chucked in a lil beetroot with my pre-made hummus. And dunk in some pita chips in there. That got my snack for the day sorted. What do you guys like hummus with?
.
.p.s. also used my new board for the first time 😁

🍁 When I first moved to Jeddah, I assumed it would be similar to Dubai in terms of living. And it is...and isn't. Its similar and quite different at the same time.Like for e.g. the building watchmen here are called "Haris" 🤷‍♀️ I went a year thinking my watchman's name was Haris. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ And then he was replaced and I thought...wow dusre waley ka bhi naam Haris hai 🤔...it took one embarassing conversation and a few ha ha on my expense with the man to figure this out. 🤪 watever I've made my peace with it. .
.
But point is...since I moved here....the one new thing I took an immediate liking to...was the "Saudi Champagne" 😍omg! Guys! It is so frikkin refreshing! Simple apple juice and sparkling water can do wonders! Who knew? I've attached the recipe link to my Bio. Make it prontooo!!! And tell me how it goes! Also...catch a cheesy song and drink assembly on the stories 😁
.Also...if you've ever moved, what do you love about the city you've moved to?

If you are watching the stories today, you know @twoclovesinapot asked a bunch of us to do a recipe collab on "Kids friendly menu" and I instantly thought...well potatoes.
.
I made these potato cakes with spinach and cheese for the first time last year.This is one of those feel good comfort food that you need to pick you or your baby up. Also, I can tell you they are adult approved.
.
.I like to make them small and thin so that they turn out really cute looking and also crispy.
As usual I've added substitutes, tips and tricks in the blogpost. the wholeeee thing is a tap away. Tap on @butteroverbae for the link. If you haven't already, catch a few tidbits of the recipe on the stories today.Also, Whats your fav. Feel good recipe? .

🍁 I am not sure, but what is the right time to post an #intro? Probably when you finally get down to writing it 🙈
. 🍁 Imma gonna say hi to all my constants and new readers 😘 this narcissistic piece of 10 pointer and an akward picture is for you. Tell me, what do we have in common? Here we go:1. So, I moved to Jeddah after shaadi, where I hide from the 9 to 5 work life I had for a while back in Karachi. .2. I don't like engaging in controversial topics. So conversations about calorie counting and diet plans are a big no no here 🤪3. I only play Pakistani music on my stories not because I have issues with other music industries but bcoz I simply feel I want to use this platform to promote the music my country produces, even if its on a very small scale. (And also bcoz our music is AWESOME!)
.
4. I hate chai as much as I hate making it. There, I said it. Bring out the guns. Aur kabhi cake rusk dip bhi kera ho chaye main, tu jo chaye cup main bach jati hai wo bhi phenkdeti hun 🙈5. I do have a different kinda love. Iced teas and water, cold, hot, infused, sparkling they are my happy place! (Which is also why you see lots of water videos on my stories) .
6. By the looks of my page it seems like I spent most of my time in the kitchen (duh) but in reality I only cook twice or thrice in a week. Rest of the days we are either eating left overs, some freezer quick fixes or ordering in.
.7. I am a huge Christopher Nolan geek/fan/devotee whatever you wanna call it. And Interstellar is the best movie EVER!8. Tell me who feel this: I am an imaginative person trapped inside a lazy body so I think about a lot of things that I can do, projects etc, this, that but end up doing none of it. Whatever I DO end up doing, I try to make it work with least possible effort 🤪9. I've turned towards a minimalistic lifestyle so less is more is mostly my mantra with everything these days. (Except food :p where less is well..less :p)10. I usually take a social media break on Sundays just to focus on other things and give my self some creative space. Oh and I am also very sarcastic IRL (But you probably didn't need to know that 😂) #pakistanifoodblogger

🍁 Sometimes I surprise myself when I stay consistent, on track and responsible. (Don't get used to it 🙈)
. 🍁 So I made these ever so popular Chicken tikkas yesterday and while I was making them I realized, that they aren't on the blog yet. Which is wierd because I am practically making SOME version of this atleast once a week. . .
🍁 There are a few snippets on the stories but the full recipe (along with a couple of important pointers) is on the blog. Link in the Bio folks. .
.
.
🍁 Also...tikka with pulao...is that a yay or a nay?

🍁 Hey ya'all. I am back from the dead apparently. This last month in Karachi has been insaneee! I mean fun...but insane!!! Like I miss all of them already but I am also sort of glad to be back home to my old routine. Just something about coming back home is just so calming. Please tell me that's not just me?
.
. 🍁 Anywhoooo.... while on the trip, I made pancakes for a rainy day once (pakorey are overrated - come at me 🤪) and a lot of you wanted the recipe. And I thought, oh well let's do a proper blogpost this time.
.
. 🍁So here you go, recipe is up on the blog, with a couple of pro points to up your pancake game 😊 Tell me what you think. I think I'll also post a few snippets on the stories too, just for the kicks.
Where you guys at?

Hey hey hey! Jashn-e-Azaadi mubarak!!!! Totally occupied by the whole Eid hoopla happening here in the family! Can you believe I haven't even been able to take a decent family picture? 😭 we are either hosting or attending parties a tad bit late. Karachi is giving me all kinda feels. Nostalgia, love, annoyance (too) and other things 🙈Anywho I just thought I'd leave a few shikanjbeen popsicles here for some patriotic feels! .
