Sooji halwa/ Rava Sheera in an Instant Pot

Sooji Halwa/ Sheera

Both my kids love Sooji Halawa or Sheera, that’s what we call it in Marathi. Very healthy recipe but not for a person who is watching his or her calories. I usually make it in my regular wok. However, recently our kitchen welcomed a new gadget called Instant Pot and trust me along with the counter space, this gadget has bagged my heart too J Too filmy right? But just the same way it actually works too.

So here we go. Here is the authentic Maharashtrian recipe with touch of a modern and time saving gadget.

Ingredients:

1. Sooji/ Rava: 2 Cups
2. Sugar: 1 ¾ Cups
3. Desi Ghee: ½ Cup
4. Slivered Almonds (Optional): ¼ Cup
5. Golden Raisins (Optional): ¼ Cup
6. Saffron strands: One pinch 
7. Milk: 2-3 Tbspn. 
8. Velachi pud/ Cardamom powder: ½ Tspn. 
9. Boiling Hot Water: 2 Cups

Method:

1. Put Insta Pot on "Saute" mode.
2. Put Desi ghee in it.
3. Once a little warm add sooji to it.
4. Keep stirring continuously for 3-4 minutes.
5. Now add golden raisins to it and continue to stir till your sooji changes the color form pale white to light brown.
   
6. Add cardamom powder and slivered almonds to the sooji and stir again.
7. While the sooji is getting prepared for the halawa, put a pan on gas.
8. Put water, milk, sugar and saffron strands in it. Let it come to a rolling boil. Make sure that the sugar is dissolved completely and then switch off the gas.
9. Once sooji changes the color, add this water-sugar mixture to it.
   
10. Stir continuously to avoid the lumps.
    
11. Now click “Keep warm/ Cancel” button on your Insta pot.
12. Immediately press “Manual” and set it on 3 minutes, seal the vent.
    
13. Once it is done. Let it release the pressure naturally and voila your sooji halawa is ready. 
14. For any reason you feel it is not done (since the quality, texture of the sooji could differ), put it back on “Manual” for 2 more minutes and do the “Quick Release” and it should be done. 
    

This way it has worked for me, hope it works for you too.

Hope you like this super easy and super quick recipe of Sooji Halawa/ Sheera. Make it and just surprise your family just the way I surprised them.

Gathi for Gudhi Padva/ Sugar Candy

Last year I made these “Gathi” for the first time for my daughter’s first Gudhi Padva (Hindu New Year) celebration. Gudhi Padva, is the Sanskrit name for Chaitra Shukla Pratipada. It is celebrated on the first day of the Chaitra month (first month of Hindu calendar) to mark the beginning of the New Year according to the lunisolar Hindu calendar. To know more about Gudhi Padwa please click here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gudi_Padwa

We Maharashtrians have a ritual where we give these sweet Gathi to the kids in our house also we put the garland made by these sweet candies on our Gudhi. We hoist the Gudhi in our balcony, deck or someplace where it faces the sun.

So here is the most awaited recipe of these Gathi. I made it 1^st time by following a recipe of Mayura Kulkarni but later made a few changes, and additions to it. However, a sincere thanks to her as I would have never thought of making it at home for my baby. It has immense importance in our tradition and she played an important role in giving me this recipe. Here you go!!!!

Ingredients:

1. Sugar: 4 Tspn.
2. Water: 1 ½ Tspn. 
3. Red Food color: One drop 

Tools: 

1. Baking Mat or parchment paper
2. Cooking twine or thick thread
3. A small wok or pan or kadhai 
4. Spoon

Method:

1. First things first. Lay a foot of cooking twine on a baking mat.
   
2. Take a small bowl and mix sugar and water in it till the sugar dissolves completely.
   
   This mixture should be little thick in consistency so you will have adjust the sugar and quantity in such a way that the water is just enough to dissolve the sugar. It should not be runny at all. 
3. Put the mixture in a small pan and put it on low heat. 
4. Keep stirring continuously. 
   
5. At this time you can put a drop of food color of your choice. You also can separate the mixture in two different pans and put color of your choice in one of them and keep one clear white (as battasa). I used red color here. However if you plan to make two colored garland, please make one batch at a time. 
   
6. Keep stirring till the bubbles start to immerse. At this time if you feel the water is little less then add it literally drop by drop. As mentioned earlier you don’t want a runny mixture. In short you need two strings consistency of sugar syrup. (2 तारी पाक )
7. Just continue to stir until the sugar just begins to caramelize but we definitely don’t want it to get caramelized completely.  
   
8. As the bubbles rise, start collecting those bubbles in a spoon very carefully and lay it on the thread. I found it easier to collect the bubbles by tilting the pan and by lowering the heat while you collect the bubbles for the droplets. Here you have to be a little quick as the sugar has started to caramelize and before it is caramelized completely we have to collect all the bubbles for our drops of Gathi. If you are making a double colored garland (which I did not do, I made two separate garlands with two different colors) keep enough space for other colored mixture. It spreads a little so keep space accordingly.
   
9. It cools and solidifies pretty quickly. 
10. Give 30-45minutes for the garland to settle down completely. 
    
11. Now it is ready to go either on your Gudhi and/or in your kid’s tummy. 
    
12. I could make two garlands out of this measurement.

मंद वारा वसंताची चाहूल घेऊन आला..पालवी मधल्या प्रत्येक पानात नवंपण देऊन गेला..त्याने नवीन वर्षाची सुरुवात ही अशीच केली..नाविन्याच्या आनंदासाठी तो मंगल गुढी घेऊन आला..अशा या आनंदमयी गुढीपाडव्याच्या व नवीन वर्षाच्या हार्दिक शुभेच्छा

Hope you like this super easy and super quick recipe of Gathi. Make it and just surprise your family just the way I surprised them J

Vegetable Grilled Sandwich/ खलबत्ता Sandwich :)

So now everyone must be thinking what is this खलबत्ता Sandwich? Ok so the story goes like this. My Mother-in-law ate vegetable grilled sandwich in Hong Kong back in 1986-87. She loved it but didn’t have a grill to make a grilled sandwich. She is a very creative lady and comes up with innovative ideas. So she made sandwich and put it on a skillet with butter, put a plate on the sandwich and to give that pressed look and taste she put small kitchen Khalbatta (Brass Mortar-pastel ) on that plate. It turned out to be an awesome grilled sandwich (except the grill marks on it). So since then this sandwich got this name in our household. I know we are one crazy family.

Anyway so to make it healthier my mother-in-law added a secret ingredient to it. What is it? Let’s see.

Ingredients:

1. Bread: 4-6 slices 
2. Ajwain/ Ova or Carom seeds: 1½ Tbsp. 
3. Ginger-garlic paste (optional): 1 Tsp. 
4. Onion: 1Cup (finely chopped) 
5. Green pepper: 1Cup (finely chopped) 
6. Spinach: 1Cup (finely chopped) 
7. Arugula (optional): ½ Cup (finely chopped)
8. Carrots: 1Cup (finely chopped or grated) 
9. Tomato: 1Cup (finely chopped) 
10. Cheese (optional): 1cup (grated) 
11. Unsalted Butter: ½ stick 
12. Salt: To taste

Method:

1. Take a kadhai and put ½ Tspn of butter to it. 
2. Add ajwain and let it splutter nicely.
3. Now add chopped onion to it. Sauté till little translucent. Add a little salt at this time which will reduce the cooking time for onion. 
4. Add carrots and let it cook. 
5. Once carrot is cooked, start adding other vegetables one by one. 
6. Add salt as per your taste. You may add ginger-garlic paste at this time. 
7. Make a nice mix vegetable and keep lid for couple of minutes. Take a bowl and keep this prepared stuffing in the bowl. 
8. Take bread and butter it generously. This time I took Garlic Tuscany bread since wanted to give a Panini look and also wanted to finish the bread loaf. However, you may take any bread of your choice. 
9. I used preheated Panini maker on 350F. 
10. Make sandwiches now. Take one bread slice, put the above mentioned stuffing in it and put another slice over it. 
11. You may add grated cheese at this time, to your sandwich.  
12. Put a little unsalted butter on grill and put the sandwich on it. You may put a little butter on the top side of your sandwich to make it crispier. 
13. Grill both sides properly. 
14. Mine took around 8-9 minutes. 
15. Put in on a plate. Cut it and serve it with your choice of sauce. 

This is the easiest and yummiest sandwich I have ever tasted in my life. The secret ingredient here is Ajwain or Carom seeds. Since bread tends to become gaseous for some people, ajwain is added to the recipe. Also ajwain has its nice taste on its own so we do not need to add any extra ingredients to make it more tasty.

Mango Mousse Layer Cake (Eggless)

This year we celebrated my mother-in-law’s 65^th birthday on August 21^st and apparently it is 1^st birthday of our new home too, so double celebration.

She is a very pure, strong soul and has minimum expectations from life and obviously from us. So to surprise her I wanted to bake a cake. However with a 5 months old baby and a very inquisitive 4 year toddler around me, I had very little time on hand. So quick cake was on mind. A new idea popped up and that was icing and filling the two layers with my very popular Mango Mousse. I have made layer cake with one flavor before so decided to try with two different flavors this time. And that “quick cake” idea took a back seat. LOL.

Let’s see how I compiled this very beautiful and tasty layer cake.

The cake consists of two layers. One is chocolate and the other is sponge cake. You may find the Microwave chocolate cake recipe here. And you will find the recipe for a quick Mango Mousse here.

Once you make the Mango Mousse and the Chocolate cake, please put them in the refrigerator. We want all the ingredients really cold when we start to layer the cake. This mousse has tendency to melt really quickly so we have to be extra careful while layering it.

The sponge cake recipe is given below.  

Ingredients:

1. All-purpose Flour/ Maida: 2 Cups
2. Sugar: 1 ½ Cup
3. Vegetable Oil: ½ Cup
4. Warm Milk: ½ Cup
5. Hot Water: 1-1 ¼ Cup
6. Vanilla Essence: 1 Tsp. 
7. Baking Powder: 1 Tsp. 
8. Baking Soda: ½ Tsp. 
9. Lemon Juice: ½ Tsp

For Mango Icing: 

1. Mango Pulp: ¼ Cup
2. Agar-agar: 2 Tbsp. dissolved in ¼ Cup of hot water. (Optional)

Tools:

1. Microwave safe container: 9 inch (round)
2. 13 inch. Angled Icing spatula: 1
3. Disposable Decorating bag: 1
4. Pastry tube/ Nozzle (star): 1
5. Butter paper or parchment paper: 4 (cut in 5-6 inch wide)
6. Sieve: 1 Big
7. Toothpicks
8. Cooling rack: 1
9. Whisk: 1 

Method:

1. Take a big bowl. 
2. Sieve all the dry ingredients in it. 
3. Now add warm milk and stir well. 
4. Add one cup of boiling hot water to the mixture and stir well breaking the lumps. You may require ¼ cup of boiling hot water to make thick paste. 
5. Now add vanilla essence. Stir well. 
6. Finally add lemon juice and stir well one last time. 
7. Take a 9inch greased, round baking pan and pour the batter in it. 
8. Tap the baking pan to air vacuum the bubbles. This step will make the cake very light. 
9. Pre-heat the oven on 350F. 
10. Bake the cake on 350 F for 35 minutes. 
11. Take out the cake with the help of oven mitten. Check it with tooth pick insert and if it’s clean, consider your cake is done. If it is not clean then bake it for couple of more minutes. 
12. Put the cake on a cooling rack for about 15-20 minutes.
13. Now dissolve ¼ Cup sugar in 1 Cup hot water in a bowl. 
14. Let this syrup cool a little. 
15. Put the cake in a plate and put the sugar syrup on both the cakes (on chocolate and on sponge cake) with the help of a small spoon. Do not pour all the syrup at once. Once you think the cakes are moist stop pouring the syrup. 
16. Put the cakes in the refrigerator for ½ an hour.

How to layer the cake?

1. Before you start the icing process, slide down 4 pieces of parchment papers under the cake forming a square. We will take these papers out once we are done with the icing. It will keep the cake surface clean.
2. Carefully take out the sponge cake from the refrigerator and put it on the turn table.
3. Take out ½ the amount of mango mousse from the refrigerator and with the help of a spatula (preferably with an icing spatula) spread it on the cake. 
4. Put the cake back in the refrigerator for 15 minutes. 
5. Now carefully take it out along with the chocolate cake which we made in the microwave (and kept in the refrigerator). 
6. Put the chocolate cake on the base layer and top it with remaining mango mousse. (Keep about ½ a cup of mango mousse aside for the final decoration)
7. Layer it nicely with the help of spatula. 
8. Now pour the mango pulp and agar-agar mixture on the cake. Putting agar-agar in the pulp is optional. If you don't have agar-agar then pour super chilled mango pulp on the cake. 
9. Put it back in the refrigerator for another 15-20 minutes. 
10. Take it out. Take a decorating icing bag and put a star nozzle in it. Fill the decorating bag with the remaining mango mousse and start piping it down as per your liking and imagination. However, you have to be extra quick. 
11. Now pull the parchment paper out carefully. 
12. I decorated it with few blue berries and wrote the birthday message on a sugar-free crème wafer. 
13. Put it back in the refrigerator and take it out just before you want to cut it. 

I won’t call it a quick recipe however I’m sure everyone will like it and appreciate all your efforts.

If you like it give a thumps up and please share it with others. Don’t forget to enjoy this yummy and innovative “layer cake”. Happy Cooking!!!!

Ukadiche Modak /उकडीचे मोदक/ Steamed sweet Rice flour dumplings

https://youtu.be/a8k7Y_TP0LU

 

Growing up in Maharashtra I have always indulged in different varieties of Maharastrian delicacies. And obviously one of them is Ukadiche Modak or rice flour dumplings with sweet coconut filling in it. These are usually made during the holly festival of Ganapati. It is presented to Ganapati Bappa as his Prasad. It is said that he loves Modak the most.  During the Ganesh worship ceremony, known in India as Ganesha Chaturthi the puja always concludes with an offering of twenty-one modaks to the deity and as prasad. 

This particular variety of modak is steamed and eaten with Tup or Desi Ghee which makes it healthier.

I could go on and on talking about this awesome sweet, instead you may find more details about it here.

Let’s make these Modaks for our Ganapati Bappa.

Ingredients:

You will be able to make around 14-16 modaks with this measurement. 

1. Khovalela Naral/ Grated coconut: 2 Cups (fresh or frozen) 
2. Gul/ Jaggery: 1-1½ Cup (depends on jaggery’s sweetness and your family’s taste buds) 
3. Tandul Pithi/ Rice Flour: 2 Cups (very very smooth) 
4. Pani/ Water: 2-2½ Cups 
5. Ghee/ Clarified butter: 1 Tbsp. / 2 Tbsp. 
6. Mith/ Salt: A pinch 
7. Velachi Pud/ Cardamom Powder: 1Tsp.

Method:

For Filling:

1. Take one coconut. 
2. Grate the coconut and use 2 Cups from it.
3. Alternatively take 2 cups of frozen grated coconut in a microwave safe bowl. (Thaw the coconut before measuring it.) 
4. Add 1 Cup of jaggery to the coconut. Stir it. 
5. Put it in microwave for 30 Sec. 
6. Take it out, give it a good mix and put it back in microwave for about 2min. 
7. Take it out after a minute, add cardamom powder and stir it. At this point you may add chopped nuts of your choice to this mixture. 
8. Take it out with the help of oven mitten. Usually at this time the stuffing is ready. If you feel the jaggery is not melted completely then just put it back just for 10-12 sec. If you keep it longer then the stuffing will be hard. (I have done that and had to rescue it. I have added the tips to rescue the filling at the end) 

For Outer Cover:

1. Take 2 cups of water in a pan and put it on the stove on medium-high heat.
2. Once you see the water bubbles, add a pinch of salt and a tbsp. of ghee in it. 
3. Measure the rice flour properly in a bowl. The rice flour has be very soft and smooth on touch. If it is little thick then please sieve it. 
4. Once the water is boiling put the heat to low and put entire bowl of flour in the water. 
5. Start stirring it immediately and vigorously with the help of a nice firm spatula. 
6. Please make sure it’s not lumpy anymore. 
7. Put a tight lead. 
8. The steam trapped inside the pan will do the magic now. Take is off the gas after 2 minutes. 
9. Switch off the gas. 

Modak Making:

1. Take out the warm dough on a plain surface. 
2. Start kneading the dough once it is bearable to hands. But it should not be cold otherwise we will not be able to shape them. 
3. Put a little oil or ghee on your palms and start kneading. 
4. Cover the dough with warm damp cloth.  
5. Make medium sized ball and start making modaks. 
6. Take the rice flour ball and roll a small puri of it (about 2-3inches). 
7. Take the coconut filling and put 1 Tbsp of it in the middle of this puri. 
8. Take this puri in one hand and start pinching it with another hand. It will look like a bulb of a lotus flower. 
9. Now start taking all the pinched petals together and stick them together making a peak out of it. 
10. It will look like a small onion. 
11. I have a Modak mold bought from Tulashi Baug, Pune so I used mold to make these modaks (grease the mold before filling it with little ghee). It is very special for me since it has been gifted to me by a dear friend. 
12. Take a rice cooker (with steamer) or idali steamer to steam these modaks or dumplings. 
13. I have a rice cooker-steamer in which I put one damp handkerchief and put 7 modaks at a time on the steam mode for about 7-8 minutes. If you are using idali cooker or pressure cooker for steaming the modak, then please keep it for 12-14min or as per instructions on your cooker. 

    

    Another form of mold

    
    
14. Once done, take them out and pour desi ghee on it and relish them as a nice, healthy sweet.

    

    गणपती बाप्पा मोरया !!!

Tip:

1. If for any reason your filling or सारण becomes hard, put it in a pan and add little ghee to it. keep stirring till it is soft again. It may change it's color to little brownish but that is completely alright. 
2. The rice flour should be really smooth. If it's too coarse then the outer cover will break while molding the modaks. 
3. Do not let the dough cool down for the same above mentioned reason.

Pana-Cota

I feel sometimes it is ok to go with “semi-homemade” way of cooking. What does that mean? Buy the ingredients from the store and convert them according to your ideas. So yes I did the same thing for this recipe called Pana-Cota. I had seen it on Pinterest and found it interesting and wanted to try it for a long long time. I did not copy any recipe but just took the idea from it. Here is the recipe for the same. 

Ingredients:

For Jelly:

1. Sugar-free Strawberry gelatin dessert (Jell-O): 0.3 Oz (8.5g)
   Please ignore the picture for the flavor (this is orange and I used strawberry). I forgot to click a picture of strawberry flavored packet.  
2. Boiling hot water: 1 Cup
3. Cold water: 1Cup
   

For Custard:

1. Custard Powder: 2½ Tbsp. 
2. Milk: 500 ml
3. Sugar: 4-5 Tbsp. (as per your taste buds) or you may use sugar free powder as per your taste buds.

Method:

For Jelly:

1. I took store bought “sugar free” strawberry gelatin dessert packet and followed the instructions on the packet. You will find it where they keep all kinds of jelly products. I took sugar free since we have a diabetic family member.
2. Add one cup of boiling hot water to the contents of the packet.
3. Stir until dissolved well.
4. Now add one cup cold water and stir well again.
5. Take a small glass and feel it half with this mixture. 
6. Take another small bowl and keep this glass tilted in it. Or you may put the glasses in a muffin tray, just make sure they are tilted.
   
   
   
   
7. Chill it in refrigerator until set well. This may take up to 3 hours. 

For Custard: 

1. Take 2½ Tbsp. of custard powder in a mixing bowl.
2. Add 125ml milk from our 500ml milk and mix it well, till the powder is dissolved completely. 
3. Boil the remaining 375ml with 5 Tbsp. of sugar. Mix well and remove from the flame. 
4. Now add the custard mixture to this boiling milk & cook for another 3-4 minutes. 
5. Keep stirring otherwise the mixture will burn. 
6. Eventually the mixture thickens a bit. 
7. Let it cool down completely.

After about 3hours, take the jelly glasses out from the refrigerator and fill them with room temperature custard. Keep it in the refrigerator again and let it set completely together.

Tip:

1. Never put warm custard in the chilled jelly, otherwise the jelly will melt and will not give the nice effect of the pana-cota. 

   

   This is what happens if you put hot custard to cold jelly.

2. You may use any flavored jelly for this procedure. I took strawberry flavored jelly for the beautiful color combination.

Quinoa Dosa

Today I soaked Quinoa and moong dal to make dhokalas for the evening snack. When it was time to make dhokalas, I realized that the recipe had called for ½ a cup of sour yogurt. I had completely forgotten to make a new batch of homemade yogurt, so obviously I didn’t have the yogurt. Now what? So when you don’t want to waste your ingredients or don’t want to keep it in the fridge thinking that we can make it tomorrow, your brain throws new ideas to you. So instead of my evening snack I decided to make dosas for dinner. Again the ingredients were enough for dhokala but not for dosas. Then I soaked ½ cup Udid dal in super-hot water for couple of hours to make this yummy dinner. By the way my 4yrs old son and my 64 yrs old mother-in-law both loved it so now I can say that this recipe is good for the entire family and highly nutritious.

Here you go with the detailed recipe of the same.

Ingredients:

1. Quinoa: ¾ cup
2. Moong Dal: ½ cup
3. Udad/ Udid Dal: ½ cup
4. Ginger: ¾ to 1 inch (diced) 
5. Green chilies: 2-3 (paste: according to your family’s taste buds) 
6. Water: To make dosa batter
7. Salt: To taste 
8. Sour Yogurt: 1 Tbsp. (optional) 

Method:

1. Clean quinoa and all the dals till you see clear water.
2. Soak quinoa and moong dal together in around 12-13 small cups of water, at least for 2 hours. I usually soak it in the morning if I have to make it in the evening.  
3. Soak udid dal in a separate bowl in warm water. (If soaking it just for couple of hours then soak it in very hot water.)
4. Now drain all the ingredients (do not throw the drained water) and grind it with 2-3 green chilies, ginger and salt. Use the same drained water to make it in dosa batter consistency. 
5. You may add any spices or vegetables according to your family’s taste buds to this batter.
6. Keep it aside for half an hour. 
7. If making just after grinding, then add a tablespoon of Fruit Salt (plain Eno fruit salt)
8. Now take a non-stick tava and put a ladle full of this batter and start making the dosas. Do not lift the ladle while making the dosa. Also just put the batter in one direction. 
9. Put oil around the dosa of needed. 
10. Serve the dosas hot with coconut chutney and sambhar.

Mango Mousse- Eggless

Who says boys can’t cook or can’t innovate the new recipes? Our friend suggested a very nice and simple recipe of Mango Mousse and trust me I have never had something as yummy as this particular mousse recipe before. So let’s not spend more time on the introduction of this recipe and go to the recipe.

Ingredients:

1. Cool Whip: 16 Oz (2 containers of 8Oz each) 
2. Sweetened Condensed Milk: 14 Oz 
3. Sour Cream (Heavy or Light): 14 Oz (sometimes comes in 15 Oz can & that’s perfectly fine) 
4. Mango Pulp: 1 tin (30 Oz)

Method:

1. Take a glass bowl. 
2. Mix cool whip and sour cream together with the help of a spatula. Please do not use hand blender as it may make cool whip little runny. 
   
3. Now start pouring sweetened condensed milk and keep folding it in the above mixture. 
   
4. Once it’s whipped altogether nicely, start pouring the mango pulp. Here I have used Kesar Mango pulp but you can use any other pulp available to you. 
   
5. Mix everything together well with the help of a whisk. I usually use plastic wire whisk. 
6. Now storing it is all upto you. Either you can pour it in individual transparent cups and top it with one or two drops of mango pulp for decoration. Or you may keep it in one big glass container and serve it as you go. 
7. Serve it chilled. i always make it ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator either for over night or an hour or two before serving. however that doesn't mean you can't make it on the spot. This mousse tastes yummilicious even served immediately after making it. 
   
8. I prefer individual cups which are easy to serve and it looks really awesome. If I am making it ahead of time then I usually individually wrap it with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator. 
9. Decorate the mango pulp dots with the help of a tooth pick and serve chilled.
