Zebra Stripes Cake welcoming new month, September 2008, and a nice way to feed my blog what it loves the best...'FOOD' - has been pretty loooooooooong since I last posted an entry!
This cake comes from Farida, posted by her in Feb '08 and bookmarked and forgotten, until Deeba, Divya baked n blogged :) Its butter free, moist and tastes great, for people with liking towards bittersweet delicacies, its just right. For those who want it more sweet can add half-a cup of extra sugar.
Thanks Farida for sharing and updating minute details every time you bake it! Pretty useful for bake-lovers like us!
One Common Breakfast, Upma, turned into a Veggie Delight by combing Vermicellis with frozen veggies (corn+peas+carrot+beans)
The precious tiny hands, which demand macaroni with tomato sauce!
Turn them to ' Mac-Pakoras' and Kissi Ko Pata Nahi Chalega!
Sanjay Thumma of Vahrehvah.com fame with his cookery videos on Youtube has simplified the dishes and I had prepared few of the common dishes with his techniques and must say that they tasted absolutely heavenly. The cooking time is reduced incredibly with the shortcuts that he advises.
I have no pictures, but made 'Paneer Butter Masala', ST's way, thrice in the same week on demand by family members! Its absolute must if you are a paneer lover!
Matar Paneer : Made from fresh - 'Melts in mouth' Paneer for lunch
Corn Pakodi : A fast snack, great treat!
And lastly to end the post, the very best of cakes that I keep baking over and over again-
Deeba's (Passionate About Baking)- Vanilla Muffins...this time topped with Whipped cream, decorated with M&M's..mmmmmm yummm
And also Shilpa (Aayis Recipes) Eggless Dates Cake topped with almonds.
(sorry, but displaying the only pic which shook...as much as the taste of this cake shook the family members! )
Both these cakes were absolutely loved by my folks back in my homeland, on my vacation.
Thanks Deeba and Shilpa for blogging about and sharing these absolute crazed over n always in demand recipe for cake!!
