New meals in Gourmet Grammar
In this week’s edition of Gourmet Grammar, we unveil a dish that proves simplicity, when treated with respect, can be utterly luxurious. Introducing our latest creation: Smoked Butter Potato Medallions with Herbed Labneh and Charred Lemon Dust. This dish reimagines the potato not just as comfort food, but as a centerpiece worthy of fine dining. Locally sourced baby potatoes are slow-roasted in smoked butter until their edges crisp to a golden lace. They’re then delicately layered over a smear of chilled herbed labneh—infused with dill, mint, and a whisper of garlic. A final dusting of charred lemon zest adds brightness, lifting the richness into perfect balance. But it’s not just flavor—it’s form. Each medallion is plated with geometric precision, mirroring the elegance of haute cuisine while staying rooted in the nostalgia of the home-cooked. The labneh adds a creamy tang that cools the palate between bites, while the smoky butter evokes warmth, memory, and the scent of a rustic wood-fired kitchen. It’s a dish born from contrast—earthy yet elevated, bold yet understated. A quiet celebration of what happens when you allow ingredients to speak in their native language. Pair it with a crisp white wine or a chilled cucumber tonic to complete the experience.
How to be a healthier with a balanced plate
Eating well is about more than just calories—it’s about nourishing your body, mind, and soul. Under Healthier Diet, we bring you a dish that embodies vibrant health and bold flavors: Quinoa and Roasted Vegetable Power Bowl. Packed with nutrient-rich quinoa, sweet roasted carrots, crisp bell peppers, tender zucchini, and a sprinkle of toasted pumpkin seeds, this bowl is a celebration of wholesome ingredients. Each bite offers a perfect harmony of textures and colors—earthy, crunchy, and subtly sweet. Chef Rahul Singh recommends this as a go-to for anyone seeking balanced nutrition without sacrificing flavor. The bowl is lightly dressed with a zesty lemon-tahini dressing, adding a creamy, tangy brightness that ties everything together beautifully. “This bowl is not just food, it’s fuel — clean, fresh, and designed to energize your day,” says Chef Rahul. “It’s also incredibly versatile, so you can swap in your favorite seasonal veggies or add a protein like grilled chicken or chickpeas for an extra boost.” Perfect for lunch, dinner, or even a hearty snack, this power bowl is a testament to how simple, whole foods can be transformed into a satisfying, delicious meal. Fuel your body, delight your palate, and embrace a healthier way of eating—one bowl at a time.
