Pomegranate Granita



Pomegranate Granita

Pomegranate Granita is a super simple dessert to make. It is refreshing, sweet, tart icy dessert and best for those hot summer days.I am addicted to granita's as a afternoon summer treat.This one with pomegranate and a touch of ginger-citrus flavor has a super cooling effect just like an ice cream and you can enjoy without adding the extra calories.Try it,you will surely love it.

Ingredients
Pomegranate juice- 2 cup
(Squeeze and strain or use store brought one)
Lemon juice- 1/2
Ginger juice- 1 tsp
Sugar- 1/4 cup
(add according to your taste)



In a bowl mix in pomegranate juice,lemon juice,sugar and ginger juice.  Pour into a shallow freezer dish and freeze for 2 hours. Take it out after two hours and using a fork scrap it so that it does not freeze into one block.Put it back in the freezer and after a couple of hours scrap again into large crystals and scoop into a bowl and serve immediately.



Hope you will all enjoy!

Kerala Chicken Fry

Kerala Chicken Fry Today's recipe is a spicy and delicious home-style chicken fry. It is similar to the ones popular in thattukadas in Kerala's, Trivandrum region. Fried chicken and chapatis/ parottas is a usual favorite combo in hotels and fast food outlets in Kerala. Do you like fried chicken? I am addicted to crispy, spicy fried foods and spicy fried chicken is any favorite. This is calorie-rich food but I make them once in a while, and this is always my go-to recipe. In Kerala, we often go-to fast food joints and buy this kind of chicken. But I love my mom's recipe that tastes just like the thattukada chicken. For me, this is absolute comfort food and has the deep essence of homey Kerala food. This chicken fry is finger-licking good, crispy on the outside and succulent on the inside with the flavors of earthy spices, coconut oil, and the crispy fried onions adds a delicious flavor to the chicken fry. Chicken lovers will love this simple, yet flavorful chicken...

Kerala Fish Fry/ Chala/ Sardine Fry

Chala/Sardine Fish Fry Spicy sardine fry with rice is my absolute comfort food. Curried or fried sardine fish tastes delicious. Sardine/ Chala/Mathi is found in abundance along the long coastline of Kerala, and so many different ways to cook sardine. Sardines are sustainable food for the coastal regions and are inexpensive and healthy. My favorite way to enjoy sardine is quick and easy fry. These pictures were clicked, during our recent visit to Kerala. It was the rainy season, and we were lucky to enjoy this yummy fish fry. Earlier, I posted another version of this fish fry, along with crispy fried onions and a polichathu recipe in which sardine is wrapped and grilled in banana leaves. Sardine is a versatile seafood delicacy enjoyed in several cuisines. It can be grilled, curried, smoked, fried, or salted and dried.  It is a healthy fish, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and calcium. Sardine is not a mild-tasting fish but has a strong fish smell. If you are trying th...
