Whole wheat cake (Eggless) - Choco banana


I have been wanting to make a healthy whole wheat cake for a long time. This time instead of browsing for recipes, thought I will try making something on my own. The cake came out well. It was super moist and fudgey !!! It tasted more or less like brownie except for the banana flavor. When people tasted it, very few could make out that it was made with whole wheat.

Stuffed kulcha - To celebrate my 50 th post!!!


You guys must be wondering why am I celebrating with Kulcha of all things? A cake or a sweet or even a cookie would have been a better choice. But it so happens that making a good tandoori bread is far more difficult. When ever I browse for these tandoori breads, I always find that the recipe calls for either yeast or oven or in most cases both. Best days to make recipes with yeast is warm summer days and worst day to sweat it out in the kitchen with these stuffed bread also happens to be summer.

Lauki kofta


Lauki or bottle gourd is low in calorie and very good for health. Koftas made out of bottle gourds are a big hit at my place!!! Unlike other koftas these are toasted in tawa with very little oil. You can even bake or grill. I usually serve them in a tangy tomato gravy. It might sound like a tedious recipe but it is actually quite simple to make. However, grating the lauki will take time.
