    Here is my contribution...Junnu

    Ingredients:

    1 can Sweetened Condensed Milk
    2 cups milk
    2 eggs
    1 tsp black pepper
    1/4 tsp Cardamom/Ilachi powder



    Method:

    In a bowl,wisk the eggs smooth and make sure there are no bubbles.
    Add condensed milk and milk to the eggs and mix till all the ingredients mixes well.
    Now transfer it into a bowl that fits in your pressure cooker and sprinkle the cardamom and pepper powder.
    Cook in medium heat without whistle for 45 mints.
    Then cool and refrigerate till it and have it when it’s cool.

    Some people like it to have it when it is hot,but the thing is,it will be very soft and breaks..So,I would prefer cooling it overnight and next morning..yum..yum..[​IMG]

    Peanut/groundnut podi recipe

    1 cup groundnuts or peanuts (200 g) - dry roast in a kadai till they are crisp - in microwave - roast for 2 mins, stir, again 2 mins, again stir and then 1 min each till the skin starts falling off easily. If not stirred in between, the peanuts will get burnt in microwave - and burnt peanut tastes horrible :)

    Remove the skin or not - your preference

    1/4 cup roasted til (50g) - 2 mins in microwave or till the til smell comes in kadai while dry roasting

    10-14 red chillies - dry roasted till slightly swollen and crisp

    Let everything cool down completely.

    Run the mixie with the red chillies and 1 tsp salt. When it is finely powdered, add the til. Whirr the mixie for 1 seconds only and OFF. Repeat this process only once more.

    Add the peanuts. Again whirr the mixie for 1 second and OFF - open and mix the powder thoroughly. And run it once again - you should get bread crumby powder - and the chillies and salt and til and groundnuts should be thoroughly mixed.

    Uses -
    Similar to til podi -
    Mix with rice and 1 tsp ghee.

    Add 1tsp ghee/oil and make a chutney for idli/dosa/oothapam/pesarettu
    Add 1tsp curd and make chutney for idli/dosa etc.

    Add 2-3 tbsp of this podi to boiled vegetables for the protein punch and taste

    Instant dosa, when you have nothing planned for breakfast.
    take 1 cup leftover curd, mix one cup maida and 1 cup rice floor and 1 tbsp semolina to it. (we can add ragi flour also. i sometimes add wheat atta also )
    mix throughly with little salt.
    add finely cut oinions, green chillies and green dhaniya to the batter.
    pour on dosa pan dont use spoon to make it. just pour it from out toward the center. put little oil and let it cook crisply.
    dosas of this kind are very tasty, when eaten with magai pachadi ie magai mixed in curd with finel paste of green chillies and kothimeera.
