Peanut Butter Milkshake



A rich and filling milkshake, which can be enjoyed once in a while. To make it more nutritious, I added a teaspoon of flax seed. And if you want to indulge, then add a scoop of vanilla ice-cream or cream.

Ingredients:
Recipe Source: My own

Milk, chilled - 1 1/2 cups
Peanut butter - 1 -2 tbsp
Banana - 1
Sugar - 1 tbsp
Flax seed - 1 tsp

Method:
  • Blend all the ingredients in a blender until smooth.
  • Serve the milkshake either chilled or with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream or a dollop of cream.


Notes:
  • Though flax seeds have a sharp taste, adding them makes it more nutritious. So, this is completely optional depending on your taste buds.

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 ...

My Last Post of 2013

Ok my lovely readers...... This is my last post of 2013..... Before this year ends, I am posting the cake I had baked for Christmas..... For a change, I have baked Omana Paul's Kerala Plum Cake this year. And I got the recipe from Nagalakshmi's  Edible Garden ... However, I made a few changes here and there. For instance, the original recipe doesn't require soaking fruits in alcohol, but I used soaked fruits (from last year's)...... Also, the cake is alcohol free. However, I like my Christmas cake to be alcohol-rich, so drenched my cake in brandy after it was baked. Ingredients: Recipe Adapted from: Edible Garden Plain flour - 1 cup Soaked fruits and nuts - 1 cup Sugar - 1 cup and 1/2 cup Butter - 2/3 cup Eggs -3 Nutmeg, powdered - 1/4 tsp Cinnamon, powdered - 1/4 tsp Cloves, powdered - 1/4 tsp Cardamom, powdered - 1/4 tsp Baking powder - 1 tsp Vanilla extract - 1 tsp Salt - a pinch Method: First and foremost, caramelize the sugar. I...
