Best Creamiest Chocolate Kulfi | Indian Style Chocolate Ice Cream

By -
Kulfi is one of the most popular Indian desserts loved by people of all age groups. Its rich, creamy and decadent texture comes from the use of full fat milk, milk solids and cream - that is the reason, kulfi is also often called the Indian version of Ice Creams. An ultimate treat for the sweet lovers, it is available in lots of flavors; while Mango Kulfi, Rose & Almond Kulfi and Kesar Pista Khoya Malai Kulfi have been an all time favorite with my family and I make them for sure every summers, however, this time I thought of deviating from the traditional route and give the kulfi a more cosmopolitan touch by flavoring it with chocolate. Trust me, it came out so decadent and tasty that it got finished in no time. And the texture of the kulfi oozing with all that creaminess was to die for!

Sitting in the lockdown, if you too are looking forward to elevate your morale and get out of that gloominess, this chocolate kulfi is surely going to be a breather. Very simple to make, it doesn't even require any condensed milk or khoya and comes out literally so creamier and velvety in texture. Do try out!!

METHOD

  • Bring half liter of milk to a boil in a wide and thick bottomed pan.
  • Simmer and let it reduce to half, stirring in between occasionally.
  • Add milk powder, cream, cocoa powder, melted chocolate and sugar. Whisk until smooth. Let it cook on medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes stirring regularly in between.
  • Mix cornflour with 1/4 cup of cold milk.
  • Add it to the boiling mixture and whisk continuously so that no lumps are formed.
  • Simmer and let it thicken. It will take just 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Switch off the heat and let the kulfi mixture cool down to room temperature.
  • Once it is nicely cooled, pour in kulfi moulds and freeze for good 8 to 10 hours, preferable overnight. If you do not have kulfi mouls, you can even freeze it in an airtight steel/glass box.
  • Before enjoying the kulfi, just let the kulfi mould sit out at room temperature for 2 to 3 minutes. Tightly grab the stick and pull out.
  • Enjoy with some chocolate syrup drizzled on the top.
  • Once the kulfi mixture has completely cooled, you can even add some chocolate chips or chopped nuts in it before pouring it in kulfi moulds.

Best Homemade South Indian Sambar Recipe

By -
Image
A hearty stew made with yellow lentils, vegetables and heaps of aromatic spice powder, Sambar is a staple served with all the meals at every South Indian household. The flavorful lentil curry tempered with aromatic curry leaves, mustard seeds and whole dried red chilies makes for a delectable accompaniment whether having hot idlis , vada, dosa or even plain steamed rice. It won't be incorrect to say that while sambar is majorly known for its tongue-tickling taste, it is also packed with a lot of health benefits; toor dal lends it that much needed dosage of protein, the vegetables provide it with all the essential vitamins and minerals and lastly, addition of hing and tamarind loads it with immune-boosting properties. Having said that, every household has its own recipe of making sambar. Some like it to have thick, others a bit runny. Some like the chunkiness of vegetables whereas others like their sambar to be smooth. Some like it on a tangier side, others with just a hint

Farali Dhokla - Navratri Special [No Eno Fruit Salt] | Vrat ka Dhokla | Barnyard Millet Savory Steamed Cake

By -
Image
Recently my husband travelled to Ahmedabad and while returning brought a 3-in-1 dhokla/idli/patra steamer for me. Since then, I am always in lookout for opportunities to use this versatile steamer. Well! in the past 15 - 20 days I have already tried my hands making the instant KHAMAN DHOKLA and the 3 GRAIN DHOKLA , both of which were a big hit on my blog. It was now time again to experiment something new; and because we all are observing the Navratri fasts , there was no choice but to come up with a farali dhokla . A few days back, I was just scrolling through various blogs to find a dhokla recipe for the vrat (fasting) but each one listed a recipe that called for use of either eno or baking soda. Since I did not want to incorporate any of these ingredients in my fasting recipe, I thought of  going the old-fashioned way i.e. fermenting the batter overnight so that it gets a natural rise while steaming. And to my utter surprise, it actually worked. I got a nice spongy and fluffy

Made with ground almond paste, flavored with caramel sauce, some butterscotch essence and crushed almond praline which provides it with that amazing crunch, these Almond Toffee Rolls are an absolute delight and something that you are definitely gonna relish this Diwali.  Now, some of you may ask, why the name "Toffee"? Well, that's because the caramel sauce and the butterscotch lends it a beautiful caramel toffee flavor...and was named so by my husband because when he tasted it, his first words were like "oh..it tastes like a toffee"...so initially I was about to name them as caramel almond rolls or butterscotch almond rolls but this "toffee" thing actually changed my mind and I named this beautiful sweet as Almond Toffee Rolls. They are very easy to make and require just a few pantry ingredients. So, if you are planning to make something unique for this festive season, do try them out. I am sure you are gonna love them. Let me tell you, they also

Farali Dahi ke Kebab | Vrat ke Dahi Kebab | Navratri Recipes

By -

So soft, delectable and absolutely melt in mouth, Dahi ke Kebab are one of the most loved and popular vegetarian appetizers served in almost every North Indian restaurant. While, authentically these kebabs either have besan (gram flour) or bread crumbs for the binding, however, when craving for these kebabs during fasting, you can't have them because of them having these grains. So, just so that I could enjoy these heavenly goodies in fasting too, I tried creating a farali version of them by adding makhana (foxnut) and sabudana flours instead of besan or bread crumbs for the binding. Trust me, they came out absolutely mindblowing and super tasty. If you too are someone who likes to fast and enjoy the delectable stuff at the same time, then this recipe is absolutely a must try.....  Farali Dahi ke Kebab | Vrat ke Dahi Kebab | Navratri Recipes INGREDIENTS Hung Curd -  1 Cup Grated Paneer - 1/4 cup Sendha Namak - as per taste Kala Namak - as per taste Sugar - 1 to 2 tsp F

Burani Raita Recipe | Spiced, Garlic Flavored Yogurt

By -
Image
Burani Raita is a famous Indian accompaniment to spicy biryanis and pulaos. A Hyderabadi specialty, it uses some thick yogurt that is mixed with few pounded cloves of garlic and some basic spice powders like red chili and roasted cumin, which lend it that much-needed hint of spicy kick. Not to mention, when it comes to making the Burani Raita, it is no more than a five minutes process and makes for an ideal side dish to go along with any kind of rice preparation or even chapati & sabzi combination. Ideally, this utterly flavorful and aromatic raita only has to it, some pounded raw garlic, however, I have given it a slight twist by topping it with some fried garlic bits and some red chili oil for extra flavoring. This step is totally optional and you can skip it altogether by sticking to the traditional way of making it. So, not wasting any time further, lets move on to the recipe....

Idli is one of the healthiest Indian breakfast options by far.

Perfect Instant Homemade Bhatura Recipe | How to Make Bhatura

By -
Image
Bhatura is a leavened, puffed deep fried bread made from Maida or All Purpose Flour. A popular recipe from the Punjabi cuisine, it is mainly served with spiced chickpea curry such as Pindi Chholey and Amritsari Chholey . Traditionally, bhatura is made using fermented dough, which is rested for minimum of 6 hours and has a peculiar tang to it. However, when you are short of time and crave for this delicious Chole Bhatura combo, these instant bhaturas come to your rescue. Quick and easy to prepare, they use Eno Fruit Salt as the leavening agent and trust me, that lends the bhaturas with that perfect crispness on outside and perfect fluffiness on the inside. If you can't lay your hands on eno, alternatively, you also have the option to use baking powder and baking soda. Without wasting any time further, let's start with the recipe.
