Sweet Corn Fritters

Today I bring to your dining table, the taste of The United States of America. Its a common breakfast dish served in the States. Nope...its not pancakes. They do have some other amazing stuffs too other than pancakes and maple syrup. :) Its "Sweet Corn Fritters"!!
This cooked breakfast is a taste of America - a delicious, different way to start the day. Just try it if you want a little change from your usual omelette. :)
Ingredients:
  • 4 eggs (beaten)
  • 1/2 medium red onion (finely chopped)
  • 1/2 tsp dijon mustard (optional)
  • 200 gm sweetcorn (I use the tinned one)
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley (can use coriander leaves)
  • 2 tomatoes (thick round slices)
  • salt & pepper for seasoning
  • cooking oil to drizzle
Method:
  1. Heat your omelette pan & drizzle some oil into it. Let it become medium hot.
  2. Using a fork, combine all the ingredients mentioned above except tomato slices in a large mixing bowl. Season well with salt & pepper.
  3. Create a small or big fritter by putting 2 generous ladle of the mixture into the pan. If all the corn is in the middle of the fritter, gently spread the corn kernels out to its edges.
(Stir the mix between each spoonful. or the corn will settle down at the bottom of the bowl).
4. Cook the fritters for a minute or two or until the egg has set enough to turn the fritters over. Cook the other side too. Remove the omelette to your serving plate.
5. In the same pan, pop the tomato slices & heat through on both the sides for a minute each side.
6. While serving each fritter, top with 2-3 slices of tomato & sprinkling of fresh herbs if you want.

Your simple, quick, easy breakfast is ready in minutes.

Anniversary & Pouring Awards with Pista Kulfi

Took a break from blog & cooking for a couple of days as I was in a mood to celebrate!! That's right, Arun and I celebrated our 4 years of married life on 10th June. Phew, time truly flies in just a snap!! (Below is our wedding snap, a perfect South Indian Wedding shot...please don't laugh at it.;). So I was in no mood to cook that day & told Arun that the meals of the day will be either frozen, take away or a dine out. He preferred the third one. ;) So we went to one of our favourite food joints {Did I tell you, that we live in a place called Chesterfield, a Historic Market Town in UK & don't have much choices around here ;)}, "Frankie & Benny's."My god, we both die for those thin crust Italian Pizzas & the cheesy gar(lick)y bread which melts in your mouth like a candy floss...Aah! Now, I have to tell you what we ordered, because it was that good. ;) For starters, we ordered their famous garlic bread with crispy coated chicken ...

Naankhatai

Naankhatai is to India as S hortbread is to Scotland,    Naankhatai is an Indian shortbread (originally brought by the Iranians to India) quite similar to a Scottish shortbread but only more soft, more crumbly and more delicious. I like to call them the "Indian white Bakery biscuits" because I have always seen them stored in those big cookie jars in front of the bakery till counters. For me, these white dome shaped cookies always stood out from the other cookies.  This 3 ingredients cookie is super easy to bake plus there are no eggs involved so Hello Vegetarians!! One can always experiment with a combination of flours (gram flour, corn flour, semolina, etc) but being me I went for the most tastiest and a slightly unhealthy version of using only refined flour. Do try any version you like but do not forget to dunk these melt in the mouth cookies in  your masala chai and go mmmmm....:) Happy Baking!!   Ingredients: 1 cup all purpose flour 1/2 cup butt...

Hundred Thousand Dollar worth Rava Upma (Indian Semolina Polenta)

Now you must be thinking, who doesn't know to make Rava Upma? What is so special about it? Every 5th person residing in India knows to make it and is a common breakfast item in almost all the Indian household. We Indians take this dish for granted. Well up until a week back, even I thought the same about this dish and looked down on Rava Upma. Not anymore. Last week I read a news about an Indian born, New York Chef Floyd Cardoz who won the top prize of £100,000 in an American show called "Top Chef Masters". No prize for guessing, he made RAVA UPMA!! After reading the article, I immediately decided that the recipe of a basic version of Upma must be on my blog. And here I am sharing the if not a "million dollar", then atleast a "hundred thousand dollar worth Upma Recipe". :) Upma is a popular South Indian Breakfast dish, mainly prepared by Semolina. It has a great resemblance with the Italian Polenta. It can be made with many variations by adding vegeta...
