For the final day of recipes from Asian countries, I picked a delicious sweet from Iran. I also came across this sweet in Turkish cuisine, and there are some variations in the recipes available online. I chose to make the simplest one. Made entirely of almond flour and sugar, this one was somewhat like halwa […]
The second country I chose from the list of Asian countries is Bangladesh. Being neighbor of West Bengal, most of the recipes are identical. When I was looking for an authentic sweet, I came across this cake Sondesh. You know that sondesh is a paneer based sweet which is absolutely yum. I was interested in […]
For this week, I will be making three dishes from three Asian countries. Usually when I choose international cuisine, I search for breads or cakes or any baked treats, but nowadays, I prefer to make simple sweets, that too which would be suitable for Sruti as she is the only person who can consume sweets […]
For the first day of regional cuisine from a country theme, I have a sweet to start with. Kada /Karah Prasad is the sweet offered as prasad in gurudwar. This is a famous Punjabi sweet. When I visited Gurudwar in Delhi, they served this prasad hot and it was so tasty. Usually prasad given in […]
For the third day of bite sized foods for Kid’s Delight, here is one more nutella recipe. My daughter is a huge fan of nutella and when I read so many bad reviews about nutella, I decided to make it at home. As we don’t get hazel nuts easily, I used peanuts and almonds to […]
When I first decided on making Indian Sweets for the April Mega Marathon this year, I didn’t have a plan. But once I started making the sweets, a plan started emerging. My love for milk sweets comes from my Dad and making this BM a tribute to him would be apt. So I chose to […]
Can you make a complicated dessert with just milk and sugar? Yes you can. And it is really interesting. When I fist read about Sharbhaja, I was in two minds, whether to do it or not. But as the recipe was really technical, I wanted to go for it. I made it the last post […]
Paal Mittai is one more recipe I got from the cook book collection. During 2010, I got Chandra Padmanaban’s Southern Flavours for review and I loved all those authentic recipes. One such recipe was her Mother-in-law’s paal mittai / milk fudge. The recipe was so different from all the recipes I have made earlier and I […]
During the earlier stages of blogging, I used to collect so many cook books. Those books gave me ideas on making dishes, though I rarely cook recipes from books. When I exhausted the recipes from internet, I referred to some of my books. One was Tarla Dalal’s Rajasthani Cook Book. I am a great fan […]
When I first read about thabadi peda from Gujarat I felt that it was so much similar to Thirattu paal and Belgaum kunda. But there are small variation in the recipe and the way the sweets are finally shaped also makes the difference. There are not too many recipes online. One recipe was totally made […]
