Trifle pudding

250 grams eggless sponge cake or 1 small eggless sponge cake
2 to 2.5 cups chopped mix fruits

4 tbsp sugar or add as required
4 to 5 tbsp mango puree or juice or any fruit juice or puree/pulp
½ cup 25% to 50% low fat cream
¼ tsp vanilla extract or essence (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS:
  • Warm 3 tbsp milk in a microwave or in a small steel bowl on the stove top. Then add 3 tbsp custard powder to the warm milk. Keep this custard powder paste aside.
  • Stir and dissolve the custard powder very well in the milk. There should be no lumps.
  • In another pan, take 1.5 cups milk. Then add 4 tbsp sugar.
  • Stir and heat this milk sugar solution on a low to medium flame. Just bring to a gentle heat and stir so that the sugar dissolves.
  • Bring the flame to low. Then add the custard powder paste and stir quickly with a wired whisk, so that no lumps are formed. Keep on stirring till the custard thickens. Usually for trifles,
  • Allow the custard to cool at room temperature.
  • In another bowl, take ½ cup chilled cream. i used amul cream here. You can use whipping cream or a 25% to 50% low fat cream. Add ¼ tsp vanilla extract.
  • With an electric beater or in a stand mixer, whip the cream till you get soft peaks.
  • Here the cream has got soft peaks. Keep this whipped cream in the refrigerator. Then slice and chop the fruits. You can use any seasonal fruits. Just avoid citrus fruits and melons.
  • Now slice 250 grams or a small block of plain eggless vanilla cake or eggless sponge cake into cubes. Here I used homemade eggless sponge cake.

Moong Dal Halwa

Moong Dal Halwa.

INGREDIENTS:

1 cup moong dal/spilt husked yellow mung lentils
9 to 10 tbsp ghee/clarified butter
4 cardamoms, husked and powdered in a mortar-pestle or ¼ to ⅓ tsp cardamom powder
10-12 unsalted pistachios, sliced or chopped or 10-12 blanched almonds, sliced
1 tbsp golden raisins
to be mixed together:
1 cup full fat whole milk
2 cups water
1 or 1.25 cups organic unrefined cane sugar or regular sugar * check notes.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Soak the moong dal or mung lentils, in enough water overnight or for 4 to 5 hours.
  • Drain and then grind the moong dal to a smooth paste with ¼ or ⅓ cup water.
  • Melt ghee in a nonstick pan. Add the ground moong dal. Stir well
  • Keep on stirring the halwa on a low to medium flame. The halwa has the raw aroma of the moong lentils and it should go away completely before you start with the next step. So till then you have to stir and cook the halwa. The halwa first is pasty, then starts getting lumpy and then starts breaking down and getting separated with the fat releasing from the sides. Break the lumps while stirring.
  • Meanwhile when the halwa is cooking, in another pan or kadai, take milk, water and sugar. Keep this pan on the stove top and stir so that the sugar dissolves. On a low or medium flame, heat this milk-water-sugar mixture till it comes to a boil.
  • The moong dal mixture should reach a granular consistency before you add the hot milk mixture. You should get a fried aroma from the mung lentils and the color should become a light golden. The fat also should get separated.
  • When the milk mixture comes to a boil, add it to the fried mung lentils.
  • The mixture sizzles, so be careful while adding the hot milk and water mixture.
  • Stir well. Simmer and cook stirring often.
  • The liquid should get absorbed and once again you will see the ghee getting separated.
  • Lastly add cardamom powder, chopped pistachios and raisins.
  • Serve moong dal halwa hot. You can also garnish with some pistachios and serve.

Malpua

Malpua





INGREDIENTS:

For malpua batter:
1 cup all-purpose flour/maida, 125 grams
1 tsp fennel seeds/saunf, kept whole or crushed
3 to 4 cardamoms/elaichi, crushed or ⅓ tsp cardamom powder
3 pinches baking soda or ⅛ tsp baking soda
½ cup water, 125 ml or add as required
3 tbsp khoya/mawa/evaporated milk, about 50 grams or 3 tbsp whole milk powder
3 tbsp curd/yogurt/dahi
3 tbsp ghee/clarified butter for frying
For sugar syrup:
½ cup sugar
¼ cup water
For rabdi:
1.25 litres milk, 5 cups
2.5 to 3 tbsp sugar or add as required
5 to 6 cardamoms, crushed or ½ tsp cardamom powder
2 pinches of saffron strands/kesar
1 tsp rose water or kewra water
2 tbsp almonds and 2 tbsp pistachios, blanched and sliced

INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepping up the batter and dry fruits:
  • In a mixing bowl take 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 tsp fennel seeds, 3 to 4 cardamoms, crushed or ⅓ tsp cardamom powder. Mix the dry ingredients well.
  • Add 3 tbsp khoya and 3 tbsp curd/yogurt. Please use fresh yogurt. Instead of khoya you can also use milk powder.
  • Add ½ cup water and begin to stir to a thick flowing batter without lumps.
  • Allow the batter to rest for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile when the batter is resting blanch the almonds and pistachios in hot water. Keep them soaked in hot water for 20 to 30 minutes. Then peel and slice them. Keep aside.

Preparing sugar syrup:
  • Also heat ½ cup sugar and ¼ cup water. On a low flame simmer this mixture. Also stir well so that the sugar melts.
  • You need to have a ½ inch string or 1 string consistency in the sugar syrup. If you cannot achieve these string consistencies than just make a sticky syrup. The sugar needs to be kept warm. For this keep the sugar syrup on a hot water bath so that it stays warm throughout and does not crystallize. Meaning keep the sugar syrup pan on a bowl or another pan filled with hot water. The hot water should touch the base of the pan containing the sugar syrup.
  • Heat ghee in a pan or griddle.
  • When the ghee is heating up add 3 pinches soda or ⅛ tsp baking soda to the malpua batter.
  • Mix very well.
  • Lower the flame. Take 2 tbsp to 3 tbsp of the batter and gently pour it on the hot ghee. Spread the batter lightly with the back of the spoon. Make 2 to 4 malpuas depending on the size of the pan.
  • Fry on a low to medium till crisp and golden flipping the malpuas a couple of times.
  • Drain them on paper towels.
  • Then immediately place them in the warm sugar syrup. Gently coat the malpuas with the sugar syrup with a spoon or small tongs.
  • Immediately remove them and place them in a serving tray or plate. Prepare all malpuas this way and coat them with the sugar syrup.
  • Pour some rabri on top. Garnish with the chopped almonds and pistachios. Serve the malpua with rabdi hot. You can also just serve the malpuas coated with the sugar syrup and garnished with the dry fruits.

Preparing the rabri or sweet creamy thickened milk:
  • In a broad thick bottomed pan or sauce pan or a kadai take 1.25 litres of full fat whole milk and bring it first to boil.
  • Lower the flame and continue to simmer the milk. Stir at intervals.
  • Bring the clotted cream/malai which forms on top of the milk to the sides of the pan. Also keep on scraping the dried milk from the sides and add them back to the milk.
  • Do stir and scrape often so that the milk does not get browned or burnt from the bottom as well as the sides.
  • Keep on simmering, stirring, removing the clotted cream and scraping.
  • Switch off when the milk has reduced and become thickened.
  • Add sugar. Stir well so that the sugar dissolves.
  • Next add crushed saffron or saffron powder along with kewra water (pandanus water) or rose water. Add the sliced almonds and pistachios.
  • It will take about 1 hour for the milk to thicken on a low flame.
  • Remove the rabri in a bowl and serve it later with the malpuas. Refrigerate if not using it immediately.

Baked Chocolate Doughnuts

Baked Chocolate Doughnuts 




INGREDIENTS:

1 cup (125g) all-purpose flour (careful not to over measure)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (gives them that "bakery donut" taste)
1 large egg
1/3 cup (65g) packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup (60ml) milk1
1/4 cup (60g) Greek yogurt2
2 Tablespoons (30g) unsalted butter, melted
1 and 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
CHOCOLATE GLAZE
1/2 cup (90g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 Tablespoons (30g) unsalted butter
2 teaspoons light corn syrup
2 teaspoons water
rainbow sprinkles

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Spray a donut pan with non-stick spray. Set aside.
  • Make the donuts: Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and nutmeg together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • Whisk the egg, brown sugar, milk, and yogurt together until smooth. Add the melted butter and vanilla, whisking until fully combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix. The batter will be very thick.
  • Spoon the batter into the donut cavities—I highly recommend using a large zipped-top bag for ease, as pictured and explained in detail above. Cut a corner off the bottom of the bag and pipe the batter into each donut cup, filling 2 ∕ 3 –3 ∕ 4 of the way full.
  • Bake for 9–10 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Remove from the pan and bake the remaining donut batter. Allow the donuts to slightly cool before glazing.
  • Make the chocolate glaze: Place the chocolate chips, butter, corn syrup, and water in a medium bowl. Melt in 20 second increments int he microwave, stirring after each time, until completely melted and smooth. Dip the tops of the donuts into the chocolate glaze and then cover with sprinkles. I simply poured the sprinkles into a deep bowl and dipped the tops of the donuts into it. You'll likely have leftover ganache. It's great on ice cream!
  • Donuts taste best eaten the same day, though they may be covered tightly and stored at room temperature for 2 days.
  • Make ahead tip: You can freeze the unfrosted donuts for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, warm up to your liking in the microwave, and top with glaze.
