Tuesday 23 June 2026 08:30 - Juliette Hess
We begin with a colorful cabbage mezhukkupurathi, a simple stir-fry full of crunch, spice, and freshness. Then comes a ratatouille crumble, the perfect way to turn leftover ratatouille into something warm, golden, and comforting. And to finish, we have super melting coffee creams: silky, indulgent, and full of deep coffee flavor.
Simple ingredients, plenty of character, and just the right mix of textures: this menu is perfect for an easy everyday meal that still feels special.
Starter: Cabbage mezhukkupurathi
Start your meal with a fresh and flavorful Cabbage mezhukkupurathi, a vibrant stir-fry that brings together grated cabbage and carrots in the simplest but most satisfying way.
The dish begins with hot oil, mustard seeds, and curry leaves, which release their aroma almost instantly. Then come sliced shallots and green chilies, adding sweetness, depth, and just the right touch of heat. The grated vegetables are cooked quickly so they keep a pleasant bite, while turmeric gives everything a warm golden color.
Light, colorful, and full of fragrance, this starter is a wonderful way to open the meal. It’s simple, but far from boring; the kind of dish that proves vegetables don’t need much to shine when the seasoning is right.

Main course: Ratatouille crumble
For the main course, the Ratatouille crumble brings comfort with very little effort. It’s the kind of recipe that feels clever from the start: take leftover ratatouille, give it a crunchy topping, and suddenly yesterday’s vegetables become a completely new dish.
The soft, melt-in-the-mouth vegetables form the base, while the crumble topping adds texture and richness. Made with all-purpose flour, grated Parmesan, hazelnut flour, rosemary, and black pepper, it bakes into a golden, savory crust that contrasts beautifully with the tender ratatouille underneath.
It’s quick, practical, and perfect for busy evenings when you want something homemade without starting from zero. Serve it warm on its own, or add a fresh salad on the side for a complete and satisfying meal.

End the meal with super melting Coffee creams, a dessert made for anyone who loves the deep, comforting flavor of coffee.
The base is a silky pastry cream infused with espresso, giving it that rich aroma that makes each spoonful feel elegant and indulgent. Then comes the chocolate ganache, made with dark chocolate and cream, adding a smooth, luxurious layer that pairs beautifully with the coffee.
A dusting of cocoa powder and a few colorful decorations finish everything off, making the dessert as pretty as it is delicious.
Creamy, intense, and beautifully balanced, these coffee creams are the perfect final note for this menu; a sweet ending that feels both simple and special.
