The chill is still lingering in Mumbai’s air and before it disappears, making the most of the season and its produce is a must. Surely those who love cooking don’t even need a nudge to visit the market and look for their favourite winter ingredients but for those who can’t cook, it may be quite a task. However, they can find joy in the simpler things by experimenting with seasonal fruits easily available right now.
While strawberries usually steal the show during this time of the year, oranges are cheaper and are found in every house. The uncertainty of whether citrus fruits will taste sweet or sour may often discourage people from using them, don’t forget there’s an equal amount of flavour to explore with oranges. Adding them to any dish can be quite refreshing and may even end up surprising you.
