Dalgona Coffee




Dalgona coffee is a light, frothy version of coffee that you can top your sweet milk with. It is so flavourful and robust that it awakens your taste buds.

I cannot count how many times I made this coffee in the last few weeks with different variations I think could make it better. We are talking about 7-8 batches of dalgona! But finally, there it was. The perfect recipe for Dalgona. I know you must be thinking, what is she going to do different?
watch.

I even made a few tweaks to the recipe to make it more interesting and yummy!

(Ignore my frothy finger😄)
Ingredients:
for 2 servings:

3 teaspoon of instant coffee
4 teaspoonful sugar
3 teaspoon hot water

Instructions:
1. Assemble the coffee powder, sugar and hot water in a bowl.
2. Using a beater, beat the mixture for about 5-6 minutes or until you see the volume increases and the coffee lightening in colour. If you don't have a beater, you can use a whisk too. It might take a little for time, but totally doable and won't hurt your hand too much.
3. When the froth becomes almost caramel-like in colour, that is your indication of doneness.
4. Pour over a glass of cold/hot milk(add a little sugar because the froth is strong)
5. Enjoy!

Note: if you want a little off-beat variation of it, after the froth is ready, add a teaspoon of cocoa powder. Gives a good kick and there you got your Dalgona Macchiato!

Instant Rava and Poha Appe

Suji appe or paniyaram is a common South Indian breakfast which is crispy on the outside and soft and flavourful on the inside. Made with rava, it has less oil, very healthy and is an instant recipe- you can whip it out anytime!  Making appe is very easy, and it comes very handy on rushed and lazy mornings alike.  Not just breakfasts, these are great for some snacking too! Ever since quarantine has started, my mother is always fed up with me lurking around in the kitchen looking for some snacks here and there, being so choosy with biscuits and toasts and "I want to eat something salty". So my mother makes a large batch of these, and whenever I am hungry, I take the batter out of the fridge and make myself a few appes! Instant recipes are such a hot topic these days. Right from dhokla to dosa, everything has an instant version. Appe is one of my favourite instant dishes. Doesn't need any roasting like upma, or any fermenting like dosa. Just a little mixing, and then all yo...

Delicious Bread Rolls

Bread Rolls are an Indian snack made with moist bread stuffed with spicy potato. It is crisp, spicy and simply perfect as a snack. I ate my first bread roll at our old neighbours place. They were a nice family and the aunty was simply too good at cooking. I loved them SO much that I pestered my mother to make the very next day! Since then, my mom makes them every year on my birthday and they are my ultimate go-to snack.  It's a  recipe to impress!   can bread recipes be made into rolls  bread recipes you can freeze bread recipes to make at home This pic was taken on my birthday(yes my mom makes it for me every year).  bread recipes for bread maker  Several bread roll recipes call for spicy potato stuffing, but I have added a few more veggies for that "extra" factor. (a g ood way t o sneak veggies in your kids' meals). You could even customize them and add some cheese and herbs. I personally also used some leftover subji which also works well inst...

Quick and Easy Soya Manchurian

Soya Manchurian is an Indo-Chinese recipe which is quirky and to be honest, new for me. I hadn't really heard of soya manchurian until my mother told me about it. The only manchurian I have heard about is Gobi manchurian. At first, I was a little sceptical about it because I had never had deep fried soya chunks before. I thought they would take on a rubbery texture and not taste good. But I was surprised when it was still soft and fluffy on the inside while being crispy on the outside. you know what? You could stop right after frying them and even enjoy them as soya nuggets. But go ahead and give the manchurian a chance to shine too, it won't let you down I am sure.   The soya chunks become a little soggy after about 20 minutes, so you have to be quick while making the sauce/gravy. It is a pretty dry dish so I would classify this as a starter rather than a main. Side story: I thought it wouldn't be dry and I could serve it with roti, turned out I couldn't even ...
