Pineapple Muffins



Pineapple Muffins has a great flavor and is loved especially by kids. Muffins has always been easy on the go snack and also a quick breakfast . I think muffins also helps us experiment and is good for a beginner bakers like me. This was a tasty treat inspired by the pineapple upside down cake and my family enjoyed. I enjoyed it as a tea time snack rather than as a breakfast.

Ingredients
All purpose flour- 2 cups
Pineapple- 1 cup ( chopped)
Eggs- 2
Sugar - 1/2 cup
Baking powder- 1 tsp
Baking soda- 1/2 tsp
Sour cream-1/4 cup
Butter- 2 tsp
Brown sugar- 3 tsp
Pine apple juice- 1/2 cup
Orange zest- 1 tsp
Salt- a pinch
Nutmeg- a dash.




Preheat oven to 350 degree F, grese muffin tray or line up paper cups and set asie.
Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, soda, and salt together and keep aside.
In a mixing bowl add melted butter and sugar and combine well. Mix well using a hand mixer or an electric one. Add eggs one at a time and beat well after each addition. Pour this into the dry mixture and incorporate it gently along with sour cream and pineapple juice and orange zest ( mine was a thicker batter consistency and could be scooped out)
Line up muffin baking tray with paper cups and pour this mixture. Fill only half cup.
Mix in brown sugar, pineapple and nutmeg and spoon in as much as you like into the cups( mix with sugar and put it in only last minute or it will become watery) Put in oven 350 degree F for about 10 minutes or till the muffins are lightly browned up.

Palpayasam

Paal payasam/Palpayasam Happy Onam to all my friends and readers! Wish you all a very happy and prosperous Onam!!! Onam is finally here and no celebration is complete without a sweet dessert. I am sure no Malayali can think of a sadhya without a payasam. Pal payasam is definitely a star,my all time favorite :) This is a rich delicious payasam where the rice is cooked in milk till it attains a creamy texture. The milk gets reduced and the flavor and taste is very much  like palkova. It has very little ingredients, but it is time consuming and  needs a little patience to prepare this dessert. Here I have used basmathi rice but it is best if we use payasam ari (rice) or rose matta rice.Try this you will surely love it. Ingredients Basmathi Rice- 2 hand full ( or rose matta rice) Milk- 5 cup Sugar- 1/2 cup Cardamon crushed-4-5 Cashew nut- 8-10 Wash and soak rice for one hour. In a heavy bottom pan pour milk and bring it to a bo...

Malabar Chicken Curry

Malabar Chicken Curry Today's chicken curry is a Malabari delicacy. It is always a crowd-pleaser, and besides, there is nothing like an easy to make, heartwarming curry, relished with steamed rice. The chicken curry is creamy and delicious with coconut milk and smoothly ground masala paste as its base. It is a lusciously creamy chicken curry with a tropical flair. For exotic eating, experience, try pairing this curry with neypathal, pathiri, or ghee rice. Sounds exciting, huh? Then check the recipe, it is super simple to make. This chicken curry is one of our family favorites. Spicy chicken gravy is one curry that I never get bored eating. But once in a while, love to try variations. This recipe is from the worn-out pages of an old cookbook. I obviously cannot comment about the authenticity of this recipe. The word authentic is confusing.  But I guarantee it tastes everything you want from an exotic curry- spicy, tangy, delicious, and rich with the fragrance of coconut mi...
