Kerala Mutton Biryani

Mutton Biryani Mutton Biryani is the most loved and popular dish of India. It is an exotic dish prepared and served on all festive occasions. This is more a Kerala style of mutton biryani - a rather simplified version. It is not an authentic style as different regions of Kerala have their own subtle taste preferences and their own style of making biryani- north is milder and south seems more spicier. Anyways here is a strange blend of both styles...both my parents are from two different parts of Kerala :). I have only added green chilly in this recipe, but you can add chilly powder also as per your taste preference. Ingredients Rice- 3 cups Ghee- 1 tsp Salt- to taste Water- 6 cups Cinnamon- 2 inch clove- 4-5 Star Aniseed - 2 Mutton - 1 1/2 lb Onion - 2 large Shallots- 1 cup Green Chilly- 10- 15 Ginger- 2 inch piece Garlic pods- 8-10 Turmeric powder- 1/2 tsp Pepper powder-1 tsp Poppy seed- 2 tsp Badam/ cashew nut paste- 1 tsp Tomato- 1 Lemon juice- 1 tb...

Eggplant Fry/Breaded

Fried eggplant is a simple and easy recipe. Eggplant is a wonderful vegetable but I like it best when fried and my mother had a tough time making us ( me and sister )eat this when we were kids. But we made no fuss when it was fried. This is definitely lot more calories but what is wonderful in this recipe is that it gets  fried crispy but not soggy. The best  way to fry eggplant is to use very little oil as it has a tendency to absorb and you will never get it crispy. It goes well with rice and dal/sambar, but it is also a nice snack or an appetizer.  Try this recipe ..you will surely love this. Ingredients Egg plant big- 1 Italian bread crumbs- 1/2 cup Chilly powder- 3/4 tsp Pepper powder -a pinch corn flour- 1 tsp Egg-1 Chopped coriander leaves- 2 tsp Chopped lemon grass- 1/2 tsp Parmesan cheese- 1 tsp salt to taste oil for frying Cut eggplant into half inch thick round pieces and sprinkle a little salt after a minute place them on  paper towel ...

Chicken Puffs

Spicy chicken puffs is a favorite tea time snack with my family..when I say spicy it is the really spicy peppery chicken puffs with hot piping tea.  This crunchy munchy tea time snack is perfect for every occasion. Puffs can be made with several types of filling. But my most favorite is this chicken filled pastry. I was so happy to find a pack of ready to roll puff pasty sheet at our local grocery store. I was really missing the spicy yummy puffs sold at the corner bakery near my home in Kerala. The aroma of the fresh baked puffs would fill the surroundings and many times we felt that he purposely baked them in the evenings when we children were coming back from school  hungry :)  Ingredients Puff Pastry sheets- 1 pack Egg white -1 Boneless chicken- 1/2 lb Onion- 1 medium Ginger garlic paste- 2 tsp Turmeric powder - a pinch Chilly powder- 1/2 tsp Coriander powder- 1 1/2 tsp Pepper powder - 3/4 tsp Tomato chopped- 1 medium Garam Masala- 3/4 tsp Meat Masala...
