BANANA WALNUT CAKE (EGGLESS) l Cakes/bakes

Now my adventurous journey has begun with trying out bakery products.  One of my colleague gave me this recipe yesterday and I was sure that I am going to try this today without eggs.  She gave me a version with egg.  I used Flaxeeds in place of egg and the end product was awesome. The taste of banana and walnut in it makes the cake very yummy.

RASAM VADAI, RASA VADA

Rasam vadai or rasa vada is usually made whenever we make medu vada.  The real taste of rasam vada is when you make vada, you must put the same in the rasam diretly.  Then only the real taste of rasam vada you can enjoy.  This was told to me by one uncle when I served him in one of the occasion.  Since then, I followed his method and really enjoyed.  recently I tried with dosa and it was awesome.


RASAM DOSA

Rasam and dosa are my favourite.  Any time you give me rasam and rice, I am always ready to eat this with roasted papad.  I do not need any dry subzi along with it.  We all are familiar with rasam vada. Have you tried this rasam dosa?  It is really awesome if you are a rasam lover.

BEETROOT STIR FRY, BEETROOT PORIYAL; DRY SUBZI

I have already posted beetroot subzi    this is yet another version of dry subzi made  out of beet root.  I prefer to eat the beetroot subzi with curd rice specially.  I happened to eat this subzi recently at Ayyappan Temple along with hot rice, sambar and rasam.  Since I liked it very much, I prepared it with slight variation.  Normally, in South Indian Poriyal, coconut along with red or green chilli, cumin seeds are coarsely ground and added in the subzi.
