Tapioca Paneer stuffed Kofta curry

Image
Today While doing vegetable purchase found fresh Tapioca and bought.  Today for a change did Tapioca Kofta curry which is stuffed with paneer. I am always used to eating boiled tapioca with sugar from childhood and recently started experimenting different recipes with it like Tapioca stuffed with cheese Nuggets ,  Tapioca sticks  . Today wanted to make some main dish with Tapioca and here it is an Indian Tapioca Kofta stuffed with paneer curry. These koftas can used without curry as a starter kind or even can go between burger with crispy lettuce, cheese slice and some sauce. As curry It was very good with Indian flat bread.

Zucchini Healthy Dip

Today had this zucchini and was lazy to make elaborate cooking so came up with this sandwich filling which can be used as dip for chips and Nachos. This is pretty healthy and creamy special for fussy kids who hates veges. I have added a cup of Yogurt and one tablespoon of mayo for cheesy flavor. Substitute it with mayo with grated cheese or cheese spread for creamy texture. Instead of Zucchini you can use veges or even pan fried paneer pieces. This is very good for lunch box , evening snacks and also for picnic. It's our duty give kids at least little healthy during this fast food culture prepare healthy foods to suit your kids taste and enjoy.

Me born in a small city where restaurant treat those days where Ghee Dosa, Paper Dosa and Masala Dosa and Ice creams. And frequent foods are from road side shops where Parata is very famous and I used eat it every alternate day like kids eating fast food these days and loved it very much. After moving to Bangalore never have tasted same kind anywhere. So whenever I visited Salem even now will eat Parata and mainly Kothu Parata. Here I wanted to try making layered parata without satisfication. Finally while browsing in the internet I found this method of making layered parata and was happy it came so nicely and wanted to share the method. Please watch the video and if you have any doubt write it to me.

Spinach Pizza Roll

Bored of making same old pizza, or confused about what to make for evening here is an idea about pizza roll. Today I have made it with white sauce with spinach and stuffed it. you can try it with tomato sauce and more  vegetables. It is difficult to decide what to cook than cooking itself especially if your kids always wants something new. Making small changes in shape and stuffing will provide different varieties of baked items which kids will love to eat. Sometimes you can ask your kid to stuff it with their own favorite. Make your own pizza dough with whole wheat flour and then options are lots to stuff it with.

Recently I had friends of my daughter visiting Bangalore from Mumbai. Unfortunately I was not available to entertain them and cook food.  To my surprise they did most of the cooking and this Marathi Baigan fry was one of the dish they prepared in my house.  My daughter learned it from them and cooked it for us went we returned back. Today I tried making that Baigan Fry and here is the recipe for Marathi Baigan Fry. Batter is almost similar to Bhaji mix only did not add soda for it.

Heard about this kheer before but never tasted it and made it in home. Today luckily when we had tender coconut, coconut inside was too thick to eat so we brought it back home. Here I am making tender coconut kheer. This kheer tastes good when it's cool. Easy to make also.

 I was not joking about just five ingredients and you will get healthy and tasty snack. For more flavor you can add chocolate chip, raisin and nuts, Cinnamon etc........... I have been making it for dessert for past 3 days and it is quite addictive. My husband asked me not make it anymore, once you start eating you don't feel like stopping. Even then I made it today to give girls who come for craft class, they enjoyed it very much.
