Re: Aaj kya pakaaya/khaaya
Can I have your Halwa and poori recipe? they look delish!
Thanks Alisha and CB :-)
I have posted the recipe a couple of times b4.
Here it is again!
Halva:
1 cup sugar 1 cup sooji 2 and a quarter cup of water 200 grams of unsalted butter or ghee
Place water for boiling and add the sugar to make syrup. Add ilaichi, kishmish, badaam/coconut and leave it on slow fire after boiling. In seperate pan melt the butter/ghee, add the sooji and keep stirring till it is golden brown colour. When it's the right colour slowly add the syrup (in parts) mixture and keep stirring. When it is the right consistency it's done!
Poori:
250 grams flour (maida) pinch of salt 1 tablespoon oil half tspoon of baking powder pinch of kalonji seeds
Knead with water and keep it covered for half an hour. Make small poori's and deepfry till nice and crisp.
Channay aalu:
2 cups boiled channay 2 big potatoes 1 big tomato 2 medium finely chopped onions
Heat around quarter cup of oil in a pan, add the onions and fry till golden. Add around 1 tbspoon ginger/garlic mixture and crushed green chilli's. Add all the dry masala's: red chilli powder, haldi, dhaniya powder, salt, zeera powder and a pinch of garam masala and stir. Now add the tomatoes and thori dair bhoono with a splash of water. Now add the channay (and also half a chicken stock cube, if you have it). Dissolve a tbspoon of corn flour in few tbspoons of water and add it to the channay mixture. Boil the potatoes seperately, peel and cut in small cubes and add it at the end when the channay are cooked. Sprinkle fresh dhaniya and chaat masala on top and you're done!
