Mango Milkshake


Before I begin this post I would like to wish all the readers of Cakes and Tales a belated "Happy Easter"....Hope you had a scrumptious feast.....I had plans of making some desserts for the Easter but nothing happened, as usual!!


It's mango season once again and I love this season coz mangoes are my favorite, be it ripe or raw....Last year, I had tried out few recipes with mangoes like the Mango Loaf Cake and the Mango Vanilla Verrines....


I was going through the recipe index of Cakes and Tales, when I found out that I haven't posted a Mango Milkshake though I had made it many times.....


Ingredients:
Recipe Source: My Own

Mango - 1, big
Milk - 2 cups, chilled
Sugar - 2 tsps (optional, depending on the sweetness of the mango)

Method:
  • Peel the mango and cut them into small cubes.
  • Put the mango cubes, chilled milk and sugar in a blender and blend them until smooth.
  • Transfer it to a serving glass and serve immediately.

And of course, wishing everybody a Happy April Fool's Day... ;)

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 ...

Caramel Cake

This time, I am deeply smitten with the vacation bug, and I still haven't recovered from it yet. A trip to The Capital was the main highlight of this year's vacation and we especially my kids thoroughly enjoyed it. It was their many firsts--first looong trip in the train (48 hrs), first trip to the North, first long trip with their grandparents and so on.....So you could imagine their excitement!! Meanwhile, many special days like the Mother's day and Father's Day have come and gone, but I was never in a mood to at least make an effort to bake something for those special days.....Anyways, let me hope this Caramel Cake would compensate for all those lazy bygone days..... Once again, when I have to make a come back, I normally depend on the Fondbites, Bake Along Recipes and this time too, didn't alter that routine!! No more blabbing, off to the recipe for the Caramel Cake (Fondbites, Bake Along # 18). Ingredients: For the Cake Unsalted butt...

Finally, last week when shopping at Niligiris, I came across a small box of 6 cookie cutters......no second thoughts; in goes the box into my trolley...*smiles*...... Now comes the next problem - a simple recipe!!!I browsed through many books, blogs and magazines and found a lot of recipes but I needed a simple one as this was an experiment!!!*winks*.....Lastly, when I browsed through my recipe book, I found this extremely simple and easy recipe, which I had jotted down long ago and forgotten!!!
