Chicken Urval is a flavorful Indian dish that hails from the coastal region of Mangalore in Karnataka, India. Known for its rich and spicy profile. The dish is characterized by its vibrant red color, derived from the liberal use of Byadgi chilies.
A droolicious, slurpy, sweet and savoury traditional mangalorean curry made using ripe wild mangoes
Juicy thick chunks of sliced Pork, marinated, fried and cooked in a signature masala blend to a thickish gravy consistency with the flavour profile of sweet-sour-spicy with neither of them overpowering each other!
Grilled-Peaches with Ice-cream is an easy to make summertime dessert of Grilled Peaches topped with Ice-cream
Overripe bananas in a Mangalorean kitchen are turned into Mangalore Buns all the time, and when mangoes are in season, why not give them the same, Bun-makeover?
The perfect companion on a rainy day topped on some par-boiled rice along with some fried fish for company
Beetroot, Milk, Sugar, Cardamom & assorted Nuts combine to bring you this deep red, rich and luscious sweet indulgence!
Tendli-Moi is a very traditional Mangalorean stir-fry using Ivy-gourd and Cashewnuts. It features prominently during the festivities of both the GSB community and the Catholic community of Mangalore and its surroundings.
Who doesn’t love pancakes? Pancakes in their basic form itself are much loved but ricotta cheese is a game-changer. It lends a light-fluffy texture to the pancakes and teamed with the juicy bursts of blueberry in each bite, makes a perfect combo!
Sweet pulao as the name suggests is a simple-sweet rice dish cooked with ghee, cashewnuts, raisins and caramelised onions and assorted spices and served with the famous Mangalorean Plum Chutney
Need a break from the traditional Mangalorean pork specialities? Then try this dish which is among the few pork based Indo-Chinese fusion dishes from Mangalore.
Savoury Semoila-Pudding (Sajjige) and Spicy-Seasoned Beaten Rice (Theek-Pou), come together into one of the most enjoyed Breakfast/ Snack combo in the coastal regions of Karnataka, known as Rulavn-Pou in Konkani or Sajjige-Bajil in Tulu.
A chicken dish invented by a man fleeing to India during the partition; cooked using a technology that dates back 5000 years and popularised across the globe by the British; that’s Tandoori Chicken for you! click on the button below to know a little about the origins of the Tandoor and Tandoori Chicken and learn how to make it at home without the Tandoor.

If you have never teamed up the Mangalore Buns with Sheera along with a cuppa of Kalladka Tea, you have definitely missed something!
Give this combo a try. You will not regret it!

This was mighty impressive and I got to learn soemthing new. Thank you One Plate Please for making our Christmas special!.

Kori Gassi
Omg! This Kori Gassi recipe hit the spot! I’ve tried so many others, none came close to this. Perfectly explained, didn’t make any changes in the quantities except that I didn’t have ramnad chillies, just more kashmiri chillies as the ones we get here are somewhat spicy. Thank you! I didn’t have any curry left for day 2! Just chicken pieces.

Lemon Blueberry Ghee Muffins
The muffins came out great. Really soft and the use of honey made sure it wasn’t sweet. I did not use ghee , only because I did not have enough at home . Used unsalted butter which doesn’t help my calories . Simple and easy to make . Good for people who have just started baking.

Christmas Cake
I know Jason to be a great cook making finger licking dishes! When I saw his Christmas cake on IG, it reminded me of my mom baking cakes during Christmas… hence asked him to bake one for me this year. He was really sweet to not just bake a cake but send it to Berlin. It really made my Christmas special, bringing back childhood memories of having a plum cake.
It was the most delicious, succulent and rich plum cake that you cannot resist. I have been relishing every piece of it. If possible please give it a try or ask the chef to bake one for you and you will not be disappointed at all! Thanks Jason again 🙂

I always loved Pork Pepper and used to try it in my way (with ready masalas) or my mom-in-law’s recipe .

To my surprise, the dish turned out to be super tasty, appealing to the eyes and yummy in the tummy . This recipe inspired me to shift from readymade spice powders do home made ones.

Prawn Ghee Roast
This is one of the signature dishes I order when we dine out in Mangalore. Sweet tangy flavour of masala oozing with ghee is enough to indulge in and those tiger prawns take this dish to next level. It’s one of the all time favorite dishes of mine and fellow friends and when I prepared this at home it took back me to my Bangalore days eating in Mangalorean restaurants. Anymore it will be on party starters menu at home thanks to One Plate Please. Hopefully my friends will ask One More Plate Please!
