Lamingtons

Lamingtons Lamingtons are delicious cakes and has  its own beauty.Square pieces of sponge cake dipped in chocolate and coated with coconut is something that is irresistible. It is a simple cake.You can use any type of cake,white, sponge cake or pound cake,but just make sure that the cake has a firm texture and does not crumble when rolled  in chocolate frosting. In Australia there are flat baking pan called lamington pans,but I used the regular 8" square pan.Try this home made delicacy,you will love it..

Undan Pori

Undan Pori Today's post is a delicious snack usually common in small restaurants and tea stalls of Kerala.It resembles very much to the unni appam yet it is different in its taste and texture. Undan pori  is crispy and crunchy and at the same time soft and spongy inside. This snack was regularly seen in our college canteen. But this humble snack was brought it only if there was a shortage of uzhunnu vada and parippu vada. It sounds funny but being away from Kerala I felt a craving for this snack and tried it once, but I did not get the perfect chayakada/teastall taste. When I saw this recipe in Swathi's blog -Zesty South Indian Kitchen-I knew this was the perfect recipe. I tried it and it was really delicious. Thanks Swathi for the recipe. Ingredients Wheat flour- 1 1/3 cup Rice flour- 1/3 cup (optional) Baking soda-a pinch Jaggery- 3/4 cup Small banana mashed-3 Cardamon  powder-1/3 tsp Ghee- 1 tbs Coconut pieces- 1/3 cup salt- a pinch oil for frying
