Urad Dal Kheer (Porridge)

URAD DAL KHEER

HI all,

This recipe is of the same kind that I had prepared and posted earlier. But the taste and the smell varies. This tasted simple, refreshing, awesome and kind of filling. This is very good as an evening snack and drink. This was very simple and tasty and just took 10 mins to do the cooking part. A must try recipe indeed.


Ingredients:
Urad dal - 1 /2 cup
sugar - 3 tsp
cardamom - 4 (powdered)
milk - 2 cups
turmeric powder - 1 pinch
Method:
- soak the urad dal for 1 hr and grind to a fine paste
- add milk to it and make a thin paste. The mixture should be watery
- to this add sugar, cardamom powder and turmeric powder
- mix well and now start boiling making sure that the mixture is stirred continuously
- the mixture will begin to boil and as the mixture thickens a bit and the urad dal smell is gone, remove from fire
- serve warm or chilled..

I liked the warm version.

Kasi Halwa

KASI HALWA
(White Pumpkin Halwa)

Hi all..

I seriously dont even have a slightest idea of why this dish is called KASI HALWA than calling it as Pumpkin Halwa..

Anyways this sweet is prepared traditionally and over years at home for all occassions and this is how Granny prepares and we just droll for this halwa and within minutes its done!

Iam gonna tell you a about something which Granny used to follow while she prepares this halwa. She doenst use any khova but what she does is different. 4 - 5 days before preparing this Halwa (if thats preplanned), then she starts boiling milk in a pan. When the milk a little thickened she just uses the milk and keeps the cream part along with the pan. She reboils a new set of milk in the same vessel and that goes on for 4 - 5 days and what we get is a thick cream version. She blends that cream in the mixer grinder along with some milk until its thick and sets that aside while she prepares this dish..
So this is what I did.. I used the same milk pan for two days.. But the taste was terrific and awesome .. Great.. no words to explain!!!!!!!



Ingredients:
white pumpkin - 1/2 kg
sugar - 1/2 cup + a handful
cashews - 10 - 15
rasins - 2 -3 tsp
ghee - 2 tbsp
cardamom - 5
Milk - 2 cups
cream (what I made) - 1/2 cup
green colour - 1 pinch


Method:
- remove the seeds and the skin of the pumpkin. Wash and grate the pumpkin
- squeeze out all the water
- in a pan add 2 tsp of ghee
- to that add the cashews and raisins and fry till they turn golden brown
- to that now add the grated pumpkin
- fry and then add milk, cream and sugar and allow that to boil
- add the colour and now cook until 90% of all the moisture is absorbed
- now break open the cardamom and remove teh seeds
- add the seeds and the cardamom skin along with the remaining ghee and fry
- when the mixture thickens and leaves the sides of the pan , remove
- serve hot or cold.. what ever its just an amazing dish!!!

Hyderabadi Briyani

HYDERABADI BRIYANI

HI all,

I took this recipe from http://myspicykitchen.wordpress.com/2008/07/17/chicken-biryani/.

The recipe tasted awesome. Here she had presented in such a way that the rice was light coloured and didnt get over cooked too.

My version did have an awesome taste but I felt the masala was more and secondly the rice was over cooked too.

Again in my version I felt that the food container in which I was cooking the food was giving a burnt smell. But neither food was burnt or the smell did retain on the food either. SO I will have to check where I went wrong to correct myself in this recipe here..

Ingredients:
To Marinade:
chicken - 1/2 kg
curd - 1/2 cup
ginger garlic paste - 1 tsp
red chilli powder - 2 tsp
corriander powder - 2 tsp
green chillies (whole) - 6
pudina leaves - 1 cup
corriander leaves - 1/2 cup
turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
lemon juice - 2 tbsp
salt to taste
garam masala powder - 1 tsp

Spices for boiling rice:
6 Cardamoms
3 Cloves
2 Bay Leaves
1 Bay Flower or Biryani Flower
1 tsp Sahajeera
½ tsp Ginger Garlic Paste
1 tbsp of Oil
salt to taste (already salt is added in the marinate)

Rest of the ingredients:
1 Large Onion sliced
1 cup Oil
½ tsp of saffron strands
½ cup milk
3 cups Rice soaked for 30 minutes
cashews - 2tbsp



Method:
- clean the chicken and drain the water.
- to that add the marinate mixture and leave it in the fridge overnight for a better taste ( I did that )
- deep fry the onions till crisp
- leave it aside
- fry the cashews until golden brown, leave it aside
- soak saffron in wam milk leave it for 20 mins
- bring water to a boil in a pot, add all the spices for boiling rice and mix well.
- Add rice and continue to cook until you get a one good boil, may be for 5 mins.
- Now its time to arrange chicken and rice in layers, one layer of chicken and two layers of rice.
- In a heavy bottom sauce pan, pour ½ the oil at the bottom, arrange the chicken pieces and sprinkle some oil on top of the chicken.
- Arrange ½ the boiled rice on the chicken pieces, sprinkle some oil, ½ the fried onions and ½ the saffron milk.
- Repeat the above step for the last layer, I.e, arrange the last layer of rice.
- Spread the rest of the rice, sprinkle all the oil, fried onions, fried cashews and the saffron milk.
- Now, we need to seal the the container and make it air tight so that the steam doesn’t escape when we cook.
- I sealed the container with aluminium sheets
- Cook biryani for 8-10 minutes on high until stream escapes from the foil seal.
- then reduce the flame to medium low and continue to cook for another 20 minutes.
- Let it sit for 10-15 minutes before opening it.
- Mix the rice and serve it hot with raita

Priti had prepared this cake and her source for this recipe was http://365daysveg.wordpress.com/2008/06/08/bite-size-banana-muffins/.

The original recipe from 365daysveg says that she mixed raisins along with the batter and made muffins. But I exacty followed Priti's recipe and My raisins on the top which I had topped on the batter alone got burnt. I did a small variation too that I added few choco chips to the batter as a topping to add more flavour.

This recipe was simple, pure veggie, and was tasty too.

Ingredients:
Wheat flour – 1 cup
All purpose flour – ¾ cup
Butter – 2tps
Milk – ½ cup
Ripe banana mashed – 1cup or 2 bananas
Sugar - ½ cup
Raisins – 1tbs
Almonds – ½ tbs
Baking powder – 1tsp
choco chips - 1/4 cup



Method:
- Preheat oven in 200C
- Mix all flour, baking soda, and banana pulp and keep adding milk in small quantity.
- Add sugar and beat to form a smooth paste.
- Add 1tps of butter and beat for 2min.
- Dust a baking dish with 1tps of butter and flour.
- Pour the mixture into baking dish & garnish with raisins, almonds and choco chips
- Bake in 200C for 35mins or until golden brown. - In the center use a fork to check if the cake is done.

Note:
- I had soaked the badam in hot water for 3 hrs and then peeled the skin off. Then cut them into fine slices and used that for topping.

Urad Dal Kanji (porridge)

URAD DAL KANJI

HI all,

Iam not sure if you are all aware of this kind of a kanji (porridge). This is usually prepared by my granny. This dish has its medicinal value and treats cold and fever.

This recipe tastes awesome and refreshing when taken during heavy rainy seasons. Granny prepares this when ever I catch cold or when there is a heavy downpour. She serves this as a dinner for us. Each of us take atleast 2 glasses before we hit the bed.. and dont ask how we eat the next day morning as this is also a good dish to make you feel terribly hungry the next day morning.

This is also given to ladies who are breast feeding. Its said that this kanji increases the milk flow and also given to ladies who have their monthly periods. Its belived that Urad dal when taken during periods reduces the abdomenal pain as well..

This dish tastes awesome when prepared with the palm jaggery, if not can try with regular jaggery but the taste is not assured. And you can use regular milk as well instead of coconut milk which is again gonna change the taste..

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:
urad dal - 1/2 cup (soaked for 2 hrs)
water - 2 cups
coconut milk (thick extract) - 2 cups
dry ginger powder - 2 tbsp
cardamom powder - 1/2 tsp
palm jaggery - 1/2 cup

Method:
- grind the urad dal to a fine paste
- boil water and when its very hot add the ground paste and mix well
- keep stirring to avoid lumps.
- when the mixture gets cooked and the raw smell goes off add the jaggery and mix well
- when the jaggery is dissolved add the coconut milk, cardamom powder and dry ginger powder
- when its in a porridge consistancy remove from fire, strain and serve warm
