Honey Drizzled Semolina Cake / Semolina Cake

This month's Home Baker's Challenge, Shama of Easy 2Cook Recipes challenged us with 6 different savory muffins, sweet muffins & cakes. Of the six i tried this Honey Drizzled Semolina cake and the cake turned out super good and delicious. A very easy and simple cake with great taste. Thank you shama for this yummy choice of recipe and i really liked it. Sure this gonna be a keeper recipe. Here i used our regular semolina/sooji/white rava, I simply pulsed it in a blender and used it in the recipe. But the semolina flour will give you a perfect cake like texture, mine was bit crumbly and crust was bit crisp we loved it too.
I also added 1/4 tsp cardamom powder to the sugar syrup since i forgot to add Vanilla to the cake batter, so the cake was dominated by cardamom flavor and it was like a buttery Indian milk sweet. Do give it a try, definitely you will love it.

Honey Cheese Corn Muffins / Honey & Cheese Corn Muffins

I really missed by space and blogging for the past few days. One or the other things kept me away from blogging and its almost a week i posted any recipe here. Blogging is one of the best stress reliever to me and i felt relaxed after posting a recipe by reading all my fellow bloggers lovely comments  :)
So today i wanted to share a recipe which i made few weeks back, easy and delicious Corn Muffins with the goodness of honey and cheese. This is the first time i tried muffins with corn meal and i loved it. I had some mozzarella cheese left after using it in my Pinwheels Pizza and Onion Cheese Pull Apart bread and wanted to use it and searched for a recipe and i found this recipe interesting. But i halved the recipe and slightly modified it to my taste. Added some chili flakes to it and loved the spicy, sweet n bland flavor of corn meal. Do give it a try!!

For the Day 2 of Blogging Marathon # 17  under the theme "Summer Salads" I am going to share you another refreshing and healthy salad - Carrot Salad with Orange Honey Dressing. First time i tried this orange-honey combo for my salad as dressing and it turned out awesome. It was superb! n i have no words to explain the taste...Friends do give it a try, sure you will love it to the core, even if u don't like salad i am sure you will love to eat this healthy n colorful salad. You won't believe, my 3yr old loved this salad very much but he didn't like raw ginger pieces. Other than that he loved it :)
This recipe was slightly adapted from allrecipes.com In the original recipe they used lemon juice n sugar for dressing but i replaced lemon with Fresh Navel Orange n sugar with honey. To make it even more healthy n tasty i added a handful of cooked black eye peas, finely chopped raw mango,red onion n tomato and few ginger stripes. I also tried the same with fresh lime juice that was also so refreshing and yummy. This salad can be served along with your meal too, so that u will consume more salad n less food !
