Eggless Chocolate Cake – Chocolate cake sheets

Cake Sheets are basic cakes with which you could do many shapes and designs as per your creativity. I made a black forest cake with chocolate ganache icing (recipes will follow soon) with this cake. But you could use your imagination and make them into various shapes. This recipe will give 2 9 inch round cakes.

Multigrain Bread

What an amazing tasting bread that screams – “I am healthier”. This Multigrain bread as the name says has a lot of grains added to it. You could individually go and select each of the whole grains, but I chose an easier path, which is use the Bob Red Mill’s 6 grain cereal (details are below). I got this recipe from Americas Test Kitchen show and this is a super keeper!!!.. This is a much healthier version of regular bread. This recipe makes two 9 by 5 inch loaves. Don't confuse 6-grain hot cereal mix with boxed, cold breakfast cereals that may also be labeled "6-grain." I have used the branded 6-grain mixes that are Bob's Red Mill and Arrowhead Mills. Leftover bread can be wrapped in a double layer of plastic wrap and stored at room temperature for 3 days; wrap with an additional layer of aluminum foil and the bread can be frozen for up to one month.

Milagai Podi

Some recipes are too simple to write but the taste and texture differs from house to house. Milagai podi falls into that category. This recipe is more about preference rather than strict measurements. This delicious podi is there in most of the South Indian homes and are great accompaniment to Idli and dosa.

Simple Gothsu – A perfect Side

Some recipes have exact measurements and cooking methods, while some recipes are very personalized and differs from house to house. This gothsu falls into the second category.. A very simple, homey and a comforting food to enjoy as a side to the idli, dosa, pongal, upuma or even mix it with hot rice and enjoy!!!
