Tahari
_______________________________________________________________
Hello everyone ! Today I am presenting a dish that brings back childhood memories.
we would be overjoyed to hear that tahari was in the menu. Its very simple to cook , very quick and who does not love tomatoes?
I cook this very often specially in Ramadan as its a one dish meal and very filling.
It just requires raita or dahi ki chutney to go with it and you are all set. I am sending this recipe to Mona's event Hyderabadi Ramadan Food Festival 2010' (Season II) and Lubna's event
Joy From Fasting To Feasting (season III)
Hope you enjoy!!

Rice - 8 rice cooker cups (approx 1 kg) washed and soaked for 10 mins
Lamb/beef - 1 pound (small pieces washed and set aside)

Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
Garam masala powder - 1 tsp

Juice of half lemon

Once this is done, open lid and let cook till oil oozes out. Add coriander leaves, mint leaves , green chillies, garam masala and lemon juice. Add rice and remaining

Coconut Laddus
khopre ke laddu
_________________________________________________
Hello there, How is everyone doing? As most of you know that I am expecting and its become a little difficult for me to cook and blog. The other day I was
craving for a quick sweet treat. I browsed around to find this quick but immensely tasty Coconut laddu recipe. So lets get started...
Ingredients :
dessicated coconut (dry) - 3 cups
Sweetened condensed milk - 1 small can (14 0z)
Mixed nuts ( I used almonds, pistachios, cashews and raisins) - 1/2 cup chopped finely
Method :
In a nonstick pan slightly roast dessicated coconut. Now add all the mixed nuts and slowly add the condensed milk little by little , mixing constantly.
This will form a consistency where you can make laddus. Let this mixture sit for a few minutes and start making laddus with still warm mixture. Roll these in some extra dessicated coconut. Keep the laddus in fridge for an hour ( Although I doubt you will be able to resist them for so long).
Enjoy!!
