Strawberry Ice Cream

If you love strawberries in desserts here is the perfect way to enjoy it- delicious home made ice cream.This frozen dessert is refreshing and is the best summer treat ever. Earlier I posted a recipe for home made mango ice cream which was the European way of making with a egg custard base. This recipe is an easy with a simple blend of strawberry puree and cream. It has a creamy,smooth texture. Try this,you will surely love it.

Ingredients
Whole milk- 1  cup
Heavy Cream-3 cup ( 1 1/2 pints)
Strawberry Puree- 1 1/3 cup
Chopped strawberry- 1/3 cup
Sugar- 1 cup
Vanilla essence- 1 tsp



Process strawberries along with 1/2 cup of sugar in a food processor or blender until it is very smooth. Strain the puree into a bowl, pressing on pulp in strainer and allow to chill in refrigerator.
Bring milk and cream to a slight boil or till you see bubbles around the pan,switch off and vanilla essence and let it cool for half an hour or room temperature.
Mix in the rest of the cream and sugar and mix till sugar dissolves. Chill this for an hour in the refrigerator.
Once you are ready to make the ice cream, mix the strawberry puree with the cream mixture and pour into ice cream machine along with chopped strawberries. Churn- freeze the mixture in the machine till set or till you attain a desired consistency. It will take about 20-25 minutes. At this stage it will be soft ice cream and you can serve immediately or remove and transfer to freezer until it is firm( for two hours). It will remain in the freezer for more than a week. Enjoy!

Thalashery Chicken Biryani

Chicken Biryani is very important for festive occasions in Kerala. Different styles like Kozhikodan Biryani, Malabar Biryani, Thalashery style, Kayees Biryani famous in Central Kerala especially Cochin....the list goes on and on..... This recipe I had noted in my recipe book some time back  from a TV show. Talasherry Biryani ingredients are not much different from the usual Kerala styles,but the preparation and taste is definitely unique. In the ingredients you will find a total absence of curd and chilly powder. The rice I has used is long grain basmathi rice, as I did not have the smaller variety which is actually used in this biryani. Give this recipe a try..you will surely feel the difference. Ingredients For the Rice Basmathi Rice- 3 cups Salt to taste Cloves- 5 Cinnamon 1 inch tick Cardamon- 3 Ghee- 1 tsp Rose water- 2 tsp Water- 6 cups For the masala Chicken- 2 lb Onions thinly sliced- 6-7 medium Tomatoes- 4 medium Ginger - 2 inch thick peice Garlic- 1...

Berry Cake

This is a berry cake which I made a few days back. Here I used white cake recipe but dashed in a few black berries and strawberries. This cake complements any type of filling or frosting but I have just dusted it with powdered sugar to make it an accompaniment with coffee and my family really enjoyed this cake . I used self rising flour but you can use all purpose flour instead by adding in one third tsp of salt and one and one half tsp of baking powder to each cup of plain flour. Ingredients Self Raising flour- 2 cups Egg white- 3 eggs ( half Cup) Butter - one stick ( 4 ounce) Sugar- 1 cup  Confectionery sugar- 1/3 cup Milk- 1/2 cup  Vanilla essence- 2 tsp Black berries- 1 pint Strawberries - 1/2cup Preheat oven to 350 F.
