Biscuity Chocolates

Chocolates Chocolates .. Home made chocolates !!!


All that I required to make these yummy chocolates are :

Sakkaravalli kilangu Boli / Sweet Potato Boli

The twist in the dish is the addition of Sweet Potato into the sweet jaggery stuffing.

Pavaka Paalgova / Bittergourd Milksweet

The very idea of making a sweet out of the bitter bittergourd striked me, though no idea of where was the real origin of this weird idea.
Was spending a day thinking of a strange recipe to make out of the bittergourd and I was very sure not to make the regular recipes.
May be at that moment, I kid myself of a sweet recipe out of the bitter vegetable.
Fortunately, my mind took the funny thought as a challenge, and here I am with the recipe -

Pavaka Paalgova.

Bholi- The Sweet Spread

One of the toughest and time consuming dishes. Every time I try making them, I try an easy way of preparing them out of my eagerness to get an easy new cooking pattern for them.

This time again, I ended up making them as the 'Adai' pattern.

Rawa Laddoo

Declared to be the ever simple sweets to be made at home. Well, I may not say so. Equally tough, especially the laddoo making out of the hot mixture is really challenging. And to accept the truth, I really had burning palms after making them.
Yet, it became a real pleasure to watch my favorite TV program and hold the round round Rawa Laddos and eat them.
For the 1st time, I wondered, how my aunt who usually brings home made rawa laddoos to visit me, conceal and bear all the pain, but still make sure she never miss to bring us these delights.

Beetroot Paneer Jam

If you are too adamant for a pink lips, here goes the jam which is guaranteed to give what you wish.

Thaen Mittai

My childhood memories always will b joining in with this 'then' popular Thaen Mittai.
Let me describe the ingredients required and the method followed to make these yummies.

Papaya Halwa

One of the healthiest of all fruits. The awesome Papaya which owns all the glamour quotient in itself.
Am actually happy making a delight recipe out of this glamour fruit.

Coconut Barfi

There was a small coconut and I decided I am going to make something special out of that.
And said specials, the perfect dish will surely be the barfi :-)

Elai Adai

The mighty Jackfruits are a delight to eat as it is..
Again, can be used to make variety of dishes as well.
These Elai Adai's are one such sweeter version.

Apple Jam

Its actually ' in no time ' recipe.
And yields absolutely fresh home made jam ever.

Bombay Halwa

These soft munchies are a pure way of celebrating any occassion for that matter.
The thought of preparing this halwa is a delight.
And by the time you make them, you will really feel the softness even while you stir the batter.
The measurements are very very important.

Rasamalai

Rasamalais are considered the royal delicacy. Aptly named given the rich milky taste of the sweet.

Adhirasam Recipe

Rice delight!!!!

Mini Rasagullas

Yum Yum Yum is the only humming i get to hear when i make these sweet balls..
Pure in white and softy softy munch.. Yes they are royal in themselves.

Jamuns

The jamuns are the only sweet my elder son is fond of. Hence these are the apple of my eyes.

Neyyapam / Unniyappam

Dark and small round balls.. the appearance attracts me lot.
The taste is awesome.. No words..
Lord Krishna's 1 of favourite sweets!!!!
What more qualification does this unniyappam need??
Unni - meaning small in size in the language Malayalam.. Either the size of the ball
demand such name.
I believe Lord Krishna is called as Unni - small boy.. He loves this sweet and hence called Unniyappam.
Yes this sweet brings Lord Krishna to my mind forst rather than its beautiful taste!!!!

Modhagam

Sweet version of the 'Kolukatai' - Rice ball.

Sathumavu Ladoos

Requirements:
Sathumavu - 1cup

Method:
