Carrot Thoran

 Carrot Thoran / Carrot Coconut Fry

                                                                  

Carrot thoran? You guys may be wondering, why to post such an easy recipe 😕. Right …. Here I have made it a little easier. Even bachelors can try a hand at this 👍. Thoran is also a predominant dish in sadya / feast.  Thoran can be made with a variety of vegetables like carrot , beans, cabbage, spinach etc … I have posted broccoli thoran ealier. Unlike my broccoli thoran, carrot thoran is way too easy 😉.  Coconut is a must for thoran; here instead of using fresh grated coconut I have used desiccated coconut powder 😃. Have you ever tried thoran with desiccated coconut? When you are out of fresh coconut you can try this for sure 😉.  Please do try this recipe and tell me how it is … Okay then let’s get started.

Chicken Thoran

Back again with another chicken recipe 🍗, who doesn’t love chicken 😍 … popular posts in my blog are all non- vegetarian recipes.  This time it’s a thoran (stir fry with coconut). It is super simple, super easy and above all super scrumptious 👌. Broccoli thoran that I posted long ago was liked by all, same way you will love this thoran too 😍. I love to eat thoran but as the main ingredient is coconut I don’t like to make it here. Coconuts are costly here in US 😞.  But once in a while you can go for it. Chicken thoran is similar to our usual veggie thoran. Boneless chicken 🍗 would be preferred over the usual ones. Boneless chicken tastes better 😋.  It will be a prodigious task with chicken with bones 😓. You will have to separate the flesh from the bones and then use it. It will be a good combo along with moru curry (yogurt gravy) or rasam (tamarind gravy) 👌👌. Give it a try and share your feedback .Okay then let’s get started.

Black Forest Cake

BLACK FOREST CAKE

                                                                     

Back with a Bang with Black Forest ……  sorry for not updating my blog for the past one month 😞. My little one was having summer vacation and she was with me 24x7.  I was fully occupied playing, coloring, dancing and what not 😕….. Now it’s back to school time and can’t believe my little princess has reached kindergarten 😐. Time just flies …. I am missing her a lot 😢  but the thing is she has to go and that can’t be stopped 😑. How are you guys doing?  I received many messages like why there is no blog update?  Thank you dear friends for all those constant support and encouragement 👍. It was really overwhelming 😊. Again I would like to thank my dear friend Annie for her continuous support 😍. Really blessed to have such friends around 😊. This post is also dedicated to her. She celebrated her anniversary last Monday as she is a chocoholic, surprised her with a black forest cake 🍰.    Hope she liked the surprise as well as the cake 😉. Moving on to the recipe, this is an eggless cake. Have posted white forest cake, both recipes are same expect here you use a chocolate sponge cake. Black forest cake is a very famous German dessert. The cake consists of several layers of chocolate sponge cake sandwiched with whipped cream and cherries. Again whipped cream, cherries and chocolate shavings are used for the decoration 🍫. Traditionally kirschwasser a clear spirit made from sour cherries is added to the cake. But I usually prefer an alcohol free cake and hence I haven’t used it here. The dessert is not named after black forest mountain range in Germany but from the specialty liquor of that region known as Schwarzwalder Kirsch distilled from tart cherries 🍒. This ingredient gives the dessert its flavor... As mentioned this is an eggless cake you can follow the same recipe to bake an eggless sponge cake. Just avoid the icing and filling. This cake is loved by all as it is perfect for any occasion 👌 ..
Okay then let’s get started.
