Ganesh Chaturthi Special
Hi Friends,
HAPPY GANESH CHATURTHI TO ALL
I know this festival occassion is celebrated in whole India with Some of different methods. But the faith is same. So with all the believe and faith i am moving ahead with todays recipe which is for LORD GANESHA.
I am here with the recipe which i made to offer Lord Ganesha as prasad. We brought a beautiful idol of  Lord Ganesha to our house and he is our Guest at home for 10 days. He is blessing us with his presence. I will almost daily upload the recipes which i will make during this festival. Yesterday i made these ladoos and believe me these ladoos are very easy and simple to make. It took hardly 20-25 minutes to make them. Just keep in mind to stirring it while making the ladoos as it can burn easily. You need not to worry about the taste as it is a never fail recipe. So move ahead and make these ladoos, offer them to Lord Ganesha and take the blessings. 


Ingredients:-

Sooji/Rava- 1 cup
Coconut powder-1/2 cup
Milk powder - half cup
Milk- 1/2 cup or more
Ghee- 1 tsp
Almonds- tbsp

Method:-
Take all your ingredients

Crush the cardamom 

you can crush or cut the almonds in small pieces

Now take 1/2 tsp ghee in a heavy bottom kadai/vessel 

Add sooji/rava and (but dont let it brown)

 roast it for 1-2 minutes till a nice aroma comes 

It will change the color a bit but do not overdo it (do not let it brown)

done 

Take it out in a plate

Now add coconut in the same vessel & dry roast it

it will take hardly one minute

now switch off the gas stove or take the vessel/kadai off the heat 

mix it 

Add milk powder and mix it

milk half cup

Now mix it and put it back on heat

Roast if for 30 seconds and add chopped almonds

and rest of the ghee

Mix it and roast it for more 30 seconds

Its done now

Take it out in a plate and cool it down a bit

Take a small portion in hand

Roll it and make a ladoo out of it

i had this mold so i used it to shape the ladoos

grease the mold with oil and take out a portion of dough

put it in the mold

press it firmly

Taa...... Daa......

Shape them as per your wish 

 I made them with my mold

studded them with almonds

and offered to Lord Ganesha



ENJOYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Notes:-

  1. If you feel that sugar is less then you can increase milk powder to 3/4 cup or as another alternative if you dont have milk powder take 1 tbsp sugar and mix it in milk and use as per the recipe.
  2. Keep the mixture stirring in the whole process otherwise it may burn easily.
  3. Make the ladoos while dough is still warm. Do not let it cool down complete otherwise shaping them will be difficult. 
  4. Adding almonds is optional. You can make them plain or add your choice of dry fruits like cashew nuts, raisins etc.

Eggless Semolina and lemon cake/ Lemony Semolina Cake

Eggless Semolina and lemon cake/
Lemony Semolina Cake/
Sooji Cake with Lemon Syrup
Hi Friends,
Winters are here and all warm and piping hot food is ready  to prevent us from bone chilling wind. So now soups, piping hot coffee/tea, warm brownies are most welcome to indulge. 
I wanted to bake a cake but not a regular one. Last time i tried mixing sooji/rava/semolina with flour and made a Sooji cake with sirka which was really a hit. It was very light & airy. So i thought to make a semolina cake which is quite similar to Bosbousa an Arabian dish made with sooji and eggs but i have edited the recipe as per my preferences. It came out so different, taste was so unique. I will suggest you to try it at least once and let me know the results.

Ingredients:-

Sooji/Semolina- 1 cup heaped
Wheat Flour-1 tbsp
Baking Powder - 1 tsp
Baking Soda-1/2 tsp
Lemon Juice - 2-3 tbsp
Lemon Zest -1/4 tsp
Sugar - 3/4 cups
Oil- 3 tbsp
Water- as needed


Method:-
Take all your ingredients

Take a bowl and add sugar in it

and oil

Mix Well

done

now take sooji in a bowl

add wheat flour

baking powder+baking soda

all added 

mix them well

Now add this flour mix in sugar+oil mix

all mixed

add lemon zest 

incorporate slowly

Tip in the prepared pan

Now prepare the syrup

heat water in a pan

add sugar

let it boil on high for 1 minute

 add lemon juice and boil for more few seconds 

let it cool down a bit

Our cake is done within 25 minutes
let it cool down completely

Poke this cake with toothpick 

take lemon+sugar syrup

pour it on prepared cake

now cut the cake carefully

Be careful while cutting pieces

Its crumby but delicious



Notes:-
  1. Lemon plays a vital role in this cake, don't skip it.
  2. In case you feel cake is not that much sweet you can increase it in the syrup.
  3. You can replace wheat flour with all purpose flour here. 
  4. Cake is very crumby so be very careful while making pieces.
Hope you will like it
Love
