Adai Dosa

Dosas are my favorite mode of breakfast. This is mainly because, for the working mum I am, it gives me the freedom to enjoy that extra wink of sleep in the mad mornings! :)

So this was the day when I  could use some variety for the normal Dosa recipe. The result.. Here goes....

What you'll need:
* raw rice - 1.5 cups
* urad dal - 1 cup
* Toor dal - .5 cup
* Channa dal - .5 cup
* cooked rice - 1.5 cup
*

Soak separately raw rice, urad dal , and the mix of toor and channa deal for about 6-8 hours
Grind urad dal to smooth paste.
Then add in raw rice and other dals and grind along with the cooked rice
Mix all together.
Add small onion and curry leaves chopped finely.
Salt as needed

And you're ready to try your skills at spreading a perfect dosa!

The Best Chocolate Custard Biscuit Pudding I Ever Made and Had!!!

Chocolate is my favorite part of every cuisine. And this particular combination of custard chocolate and pudding instantly caught my eye.

 

Should tell you that this is the best ever version of biscuit pudding I've ever had. The first set i made got over before i could even catch a click of it. This is the second set i made in two consecutive days and I'm lucky that my camera could catch a glimpse of it before it vanished :)

 

Thanks to my friend Ria's blog, the source of this recipe.

 

So here goes... get ready to be dazzled :)

 

 

What you'll Need :

** Chocolate -150gms  (Dark chocolate as per original recipe, but i substituted it with normal Amul chocolate bars the first time i made this.. .and it is more yummier !!)

** Biscuits - 10 to 15 or as needed

** Condensed milk - 1 tin of

** Milk -1 condensed milk tin

** Egg - 4 yolks

** Custard Powder -2 tblsp ( My addition to the original recipe)

** Vanilla essence - 2 tsp

** Coffee powder -  enough to make a cup of strong black coffee

 

Let's do the Magic !!!

** Melt the chocolate

** To little of the milk mix custard powder and dissolve well.

**To the melted chocolate add 4 egg yolks ,condensed milk, custard powder mix and the milk

** Mix well

** Put it on the stove and stir continuously. NOTE: Dont forget to Stir continuously. As chances of it getting burnt is very high.

** This step does take some time, as we have to cook it till the mixture starts thickening to a custard consistency. Add vanilla essence.

** Once its thickened and boiled, remove from fire and set aside.

 

For the setting

** Make black coffee, maybe about a cup.

** Dip the biscuits in the coffee and line the pudding dish. I stopped with two layers, but we can surely have about 3 as you'd like.

** Pour the custard over the biscuit layers and put it into the fridge to set for sometime.

Relish the finger licking goodness :)
