home, so making them once in a while is totally fine.

I love krispy kerme and dunkin doughnuts, I always have special place for the
mini doughnuts in my heart especially when I go to fairs and market place. The

thing is for sure, you will never stop with one. I came across these mini
doughnuts recipe, which does not require doughnut maker and gave it a shot
immediately. These mini doughnuts look so crispy on the outside but so soft,
airy and spongy in the middle. Do try it out friends; they are just fantabulous…

Dill Leaves Vadai Recipe/Dill leaves Kadalai Paruppu Vadai/Dill Leaves Paruppu Vadai Recipe/Dill Leaves Vadai with Channa Dal
Dill leaves vadai is a very aromatic, delicate tasting and flavourful vada. Before going into the recipe I would like to share a few things about Dill leaves. Dill is
native to Mediterranean and East European regions. Dill leaves are feathery, fern
like and dark green in colour. Fresh and dried dill leaves are widely used as
herbs in Russia, Germany, Greece, Poland, Norway and many other countries. In
India dill is known as shepu in Marathi, savaa in Hindi, soa in Punjabi,
sadhakuppu in Tamil, soa-kura in Telugu, sabbasige soppu in Kannada and
chathakuppa in Malayalam. Dill is a unique plant, because both its leaves and
seeds are used as seasoning. It is rich in vitamin A, C, B6, folates,
riboflavin, calcium, iron and other important minerals. Dill has an essential
oil called Eugenol, which has been in therapeutic use as local anaesthetic and antiseptic.
Eugenol also has been found to reduce sugar levels in diabetics. Dill seeds
have been used in traditional medicines for digestion, as disinfectant, for
more milk production in nursing mothers and to cure neurological symptoms like
headaches and neural instability. [Information collected from various websites
including Wikipedia]. Do check out other Vadai Varieties here and other interesting Starters/EveningSnacks/Appetizers here.

Thayir Vadai Recipe/Curd Vadai Recipe/Dahi Vadai Recipe/Uraddal Vadai Soaked in Yogurt/How to make Thayir Vadai with step by step photos
Thayir
vadai is yet another delectable and my favourite evening snack. I love it so
much I can finish off one whole plate in no time. The best part of thayir/curd
vadai is, though the vadai’s are fried in oil, as they are soaked in water for
about a minute and when squeezing out the water all most all the oil also comes out of the
vadai and they become very soft. All the goodness of yogurt/thayir, protein
from urad dal, added vegetables makes this a delicious evening
snack. Do check out other Vadai Varieties here and other starters/Appetizers/Evening Snacks here

Fish Cutlets/Fish Patties/Fish Cakes
We are
always looking to make some snacks for the kids especially after school. To
satisfy their taste buds and give them something interesting is always a
challenge. Today I was running out of many groceries in my kitchen and was really
lazy to go shopping. It is really cold and windy, most of the days I just don’t
want to step out of the door. I just had some potatoes and tuna fish [cans], so
ended up making cutlets. I have previously made fish cutlets from fresh fish. This
is my first time using tuna fish from a can, I never buy canned fish. But I
have so many friends using canned tuna, so I just wanted to try it once. We all
liked it a lot, it was awesome.

Crostini with Cherry Tomatoes & Mozzarella/Crostini with Cherry Tomatoes & Mozzarella Cheese with step by step photos
For
this month’s IFC challenge we are exploring the Campania cuisine of Italy
chosen by Priya Suresh. Campania is a highly populated region in the Southern Italy,
located on the Italian Peninsula with the Mediterranean Sea to the West.
Campania’s
exuberant cuisine relies on sun-kissed vegetables and herbs, salty capers,
dried pasta and fresh farmhouse cheeses, chief among them water buffalo’s
Mozzarella. Campania is home to over 80% of Italy’s water buffaloes, so the
Campani produce a number of delicious water buffalo’s milk cheeses. For this
month’s IFC challenge I chose to do the Corstini with cherry tomatoes &
mozzarella. Thanks a lot Mrs. Priya for the wonderful challenge.
