Southern Biscuits

Today's recipe is very popular American Breakfast recipe, Southern Biscuits. I thoroughly enjoyed baking this biscuit and the result was also awesome and the taste was like the one we get from Mc.Donalds n even more fresh n yummy. My kids love Mc.D's chicken biscuits a lot and i was so happy to made their fav biscuits @ home. I don't have biscuit cutter or special equipment to knead and cut the dough. I simply used my hands to knead n my idiyappam mould to cut out the dough. And also i replaced shortening with butter. The texture,taste,color everything was perfect to me. My kids love to eat the biscuits with butter cream. Me n Hubby had with Potato Spinach patties. The recipe as follows...

Caramel French Toast ~ Delicious English Breakfast !!

This Month's The Gourmet Seven edition ends with me. And the theme was English Breakfast and i chose the very popular French Toast. French Toast is nothing but a bread dish soaked with egg, milk n sugar and then toasted. This recipe is little different from the regular toasted French Toast, this is oven baked with Caramel sauce. The entire process was done ahead and kept in refrigerator for overnight and next day it baked. First time i tried this recipe and fallen in love, too delicious and a satisfying breakfast. My kids loved it to core. I got the recipe Here and for detailed step wise pictures click Here. In the original recipe, they used half n half cream but i replaced it with 2% milk  and i also i did not add cinnamon powder to my toast . If u r a sweet tooth person, this recipe is for you!!!

Chole Mint Bhat Recipe/ Aloo Pudina Rice / Aloo Raita Recipe

Time for Blog Hop Wednesday, and for this Month again I was paired with Hema of Hema's Adugemane, yup last month also she was my pair but bcoz of my health I wasn't able to try n post a recipe from her space. This time I don't want to miss and I picked her Aloo Pudina Bhat. I slightly tweaked her recipe and tried with Chole/Chickpeas instead of Aloo.

Jeera Gobi / Cauliflower Sabzi With Cumin N Cilantro

       Again I am back with another interesting and flavor rich sabzi with Cauliflower/Gobi. This is a kind of dry sabzi with more onions and spices. I have a strong like/love to this combo - ginger,chilli,cilantro, the unique flavor n the strong spicy taste tempts me a lot....I have used this combination in many of my recipes like,Sweet corn Cilantro rice,Corn Adai,Gobi Paratha,Coconut chutney. I tried this recipe long back for Julie's EP series event ~ Cumin n cilantro but becoz of my health issue i couldn't able to send it in time. So Sorry dear!! I used blanched cauliflower florets for this sabzi and didin't cook it for long time, this way cauliflower stayed crunchy and absored all the spices and tasted so good. Do give it a try and let me know the result.

Hi friends

Hope You all doing good and I m so so happy to meet(virtually) you all after a very long time. Today's recipe is a protein rich and filling Paratha with Silken Tofu  and a super easy and tasty Cucumber Raita to go with. I made this paratha long back and this was the last recipe I prepared n clicked for blog before my knee issues. This Tofu Paratha recipe was slightly adapted from Show me the curry site. I tweaked to my taste. Paratha turned out so tasty and filling. I served with cucumber Raita and Moongdal curry /Moongdal Tadka. So satisfying and delicious lunch.
