Apple MilkShake

What would you do if you have excess fruits at home?? No, no…let me put the question in another way…What will you do if your hubby gets tonnes of fruits and nobody at home, including hubby dear, touch them??? Now it’s our duty to finish those off somehow…So, we start digging for recipes or innovate something of our own!! This milkshake is one such innovation….
Had few Ooty apples at home and these have a low shelf-life…So had to finish it off asap….Made this milkshake one evening for the kids and it was delicious…..The taste of cardamom in the milkshake added more flavour….



Again a milkshake in a wine glass!! Well, you know who's idea it is....*smiles*


Ingredients:
Recipe Source: My Own

Apples - 4
Cardamom - 3 pods
Sugar - 4 tsp (depending on your taste)
Milk - 1 cup

Method:
  • Peel the apples and cut it into cubes.
  • Add the chilled milk, apples, cardamoms and sugar in a blender and blend until smooth and frothy.
  • Transfer to a serving glass and serve immediately. 
Notes: I used Ooty apples, which are quite small in size.

Pansache Dhonas/ Jackfruit Cake

It's the season of jackfruit and you get to see lots of them in Kerala now. Last week, when I went home for a day, I brought back some jackfruits as my son loves them...... After everybody had their share, I had little left in the fridge and so decided to bake this Goan cake - Pansache Dhonas, which I had penned down from Raksha's Kitchen some months back. I would say this cake is definitely a healthy one as it uses no maida, sugar or butter.... The cake tasted quite different from the normal ones and it was indeed yummy! Ingredients: Recipe Source: Raksha's Kitchen Jackfruit pulp - 2 cups Grated coconut - 1 cup Salt - 1/2 tsp Rava - 1 cup Jaggery - 1 cup Cardamom powder - 2 tsps Cashewnuts, chopped - 10 Almonds, chopped - 5-10 Raisins - 10 Method: Roast rava till it is light brown or till the aroma wafts into the air. Keep aside. Let it cool for at least 20 mins. Remove the jackfruit seeds and put them into a mixer ...

Happy B'day to JJ....

Yes! It's that month when I have two most important people celebrating their birthdays on two consecutive days...I have my better-half celebrating his birthday today..... And this is the first time I am actually doing something on his birthday since I usually concentrated more on the next one..... So, I wanted to make him something special this year, (not the usual cake) and I landed upon one of the most creamylicious , yummylicious dessert-The Tiramisu-one of his favorite too!!!  Now, I have made a Tiramisu and a Tiramisu Cake some time back with sponge cakes but this is the first with Savoiardi...... Moreover, I needed a twist in the dessert, something different from the usual!! And so, I decided to make the Irish Cream Tiramisu by Nigella (one of my favorite baker) ..... Nigella has never failed me when it comes to baking...... I tried her Devil's Food Cake last year (same day) and it was simply superb! Irish Cream Tiramisu Ingredients: Recipe S...

Julekake- A Norwegian Cardamom Scented Christmas Bread

We Knead To Bake!  is a bread baking group on FB, hosted by  Aparna Balasubramanian  of My Diverse Kitchen . Though I had joined this group couple of months back, I haven't baked anything to date except for pizzas. Now, baking bread is not a child's play. So, I waited until I get to bake something easy. And this month's recipe proved to be the right one to bake for an amateur like me!! Julekake (or Julekaka/ Julekaga) is a rich holiday bread flavoured with cardamom which is traditionally served at Christmas in many Scandinavian countries. It is particularly popular in Norway and Denmark. Incidentally, Julekake means “Yule Bread” in Norwegian.  This bread is more cake-like in texture and sometimes it is dusted with powdered sugar or glazed with a white sugar icing. If it is not glazed or left plain, then it is usually served warm at breakfast with butter or a goat milk cheese called geitost/ brunost.  In Norway, Julekake traditionally only a...
