CURRY McPUFF

Curry McPuff Recipe @ treatntricl.blogspot.com

This Curry McPuff was inspired from popular fast food chain restaurant.  It is either stuffed with apple of savory filling.

Just did my own spin by changing the filling. Stuffed with healthy vegetables such as potato, pumpkin, sweet potato and green peas.  As we all love spicy food, have added pounded bird's chili but this is optional.

Have used Baba's Chicken Masala powder or mix your own using ground coriander, chili, turmeric and jeera powder.

Roll out the pastry into rectangles, filled with a tablespoon filling then cover with another sheet of pastry.  Crimp the edges with a fork, brush with oil and bake until light brown.

Curry McPuff  turned out perfect with right balance of spices and disappear within minutes after came out of the oven, my family truly love them.

PERFECT CARROT BREAD


Perfect Carrot Bread Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com


This  Perfect Carrot Bread  becomes my favorite as it was easy and no-mixer required recipe.

It is loaded with carrot and warm spices of ground cinnamon and ginger. Using only 3/4 cup of sugar but you can increase up to 1 cup  if you want it sweeter.  By adding mashed bananas it cuts down the use of butter or oil in the recipe thus makes it healthier.

This bread is delicious on its own as  for  festive touch, a drizzle of cream cheese or lemon glaze on this Perfect Carrot Bread is what you need. It takes exactly 50 minutes to bake this loaf, turned out tender, just sweet enough and beautifully sliced.

NO KNEAD RAISIN BREAD

  
No Knead Raisin Bread Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com


After baking numerous yeast bread, this is my first time making No Knead Raisin Bread.  Seriously am curious whether this bread be above my expectations. 

MAKING THE DOUGH

Just combine all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl then add raisin and butter. If you are using active dry yeast,  dissolve the sugar in warm milk (not hot), sprinkle dry yeast as specified in the recipe, cover  for 10 minutes to activate.  Check whether the yeast turns foamy if not start all over again. Stir this mixture and add to the flour. 

Reserve 1 tablespoon of egg to use for brushing together with a tablespoon of milk later.  Add warm milk and an egg to the flour mixture,  forms into soft dough.  Cover and let sit for 1 hour or more. 

SHAPING  AND BAKING

After it doubled in size,  punch down the dough and transfer onto lightly floured top.  Roll out into rectangle or round. Equally divide into 10 pieces.  Shape each into desired shape and place into lightly greased pan. You could also turns this into one big loaf.  Cover and rest for 30 minutes. Just 10 minutes before rising time, preheat the oven at  180 C, brush with egg wash.   Bake until golden for 20-30 minutes. Brush with butter after removing from oven if desired.

Am fully surprised to see  this No Knead Raisin Bread turns out tender and fluffy but  I need  to improve my shaping skills.

SAVORY OATS PANCAKE

Savory Oats Pancake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

It is close to lunch hour but I have no idea what to cook today.  Since  quite some time we did not have pancake  so why not prepare this healthy and fiber rich  Savory Oats Pancake. 

This is inspired by Oat Cheela where it uses besan (chickpeas flour) but replaced it with whole wheat flour and added an egg to the batter. Also no blending of oats required as soaking them for 15 minutes is sufficient.

Initially my batter was quite thick, added little bit more water.  It should be easy to spread, thickness  similar to condensed milk and not watery.  For smooth pancake, you need to  chop the veggies very fine. 

Apply some oil on my pan for frying the first pancake but need not use oil for the rest of the batter.

Savory Oats Pancake best served hot immediately after you have fried them.  My kids love them with ketchup.  If serving small kids omit the green and chili powder.

EASY PUMPKIN BREAD


Easy Pumpkin Bread Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

This Easy Pumpkin Bread was so moist and tender.  Used homemade pumpkin puree or you could pick a can of pumpkin puree if you are pressed for time, both work for this recipe.

Make it  healthier by using whole wheat flour and  naturally sweetened by coconut sugar instead of white sugar.  This Easy Pumpkin Bread  was  mild sweet but you could add up to 1 cup of sugar if you want it sweeter.

Like most of quick bread,  it involves combining dry ingredients with wet ingredients just with rubber spatula.  After well combined, it is ready for baking.  Mine done exactly 60 minutes as oven varies from one another, please check before 5 minutes of baking time.

If you feel to have a smaller bites, turn this into muffin,  fill 3/4 full each muffin cups with batter and bake for 20 - 22 minutes.  You could mix in about 1/2 cup each of chopped walnuts and raisin if desired.

This bread is good for 3 days at the counter or up to 1 week if refrigerated in an airtight container in a single layer.

PAN FRIED POTATO WITH EGGS

Pan Fried Potato with Eggs Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

My late mum used to prepare this Pan Fried Potato with Eggs / Kentang Goreng Telur for our breakfast.  It was simple comfort food  yet so filling. 

The hero of this recipe is potato.  Also used sweet potato. There are 2 ways to cook the potato either boiled or fried.  I choose the healthier way by boiling them until soft.

For frying, heat the oil then throw in the cubed potato, cover with tight fitting lid, in between flip the potato to cook until tender and sprinkle with salt.  Constantly check the doneness to avoid sticking to the bottom of the pan.  This would take around 10 minutes or more depending the type of potato used.

Added minced ginger as I love it but this is optional also throw in few red chili for color and chopped coriander leaves to garnish.

Pan Fried Potato with Eggs / Kentang Goreng Telur   was absolutely my to go breakfast with fewer ingredients but simply amazing!

My family always look forward to having dessert for tea-time, either  cake, bread or cookies.   For me, I love to bake a quick bread as it was quick, easy and simple steps.

Pav Bhaji Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

Pav Bhaji is a famous street food of India consisting of pav or dinner rolls either homemade or store bought together with bhaji made from curried mashed vegetables like potato, carrot, cauliflower, green peas and bell  pepper.

You can prepare Pav Bhaji using stove top or pressure cooker method for quick satisfying meal.  This is a 2 step process, first vegetables are boiled until soft then  mashed with potato masher or hand held blender. The texture is up to you either smooth paste of little chunky.

In another pan, masala with onion and tomato is prepared , mashed vegetables are added to this masala.  The spice blend is different from one household to another.  The special ingredient was pav bhaji masala,  am using ready pav bhaji masala that is available from Indian grocery store.

Most people love the bright red color this masala brings without artificial coloring by adding kashmiri chili or red chili powder. Adjust red chili powder according to your preference.  For natural deep red color, add a small piece of  beetroot along with other vegetables.

You can also use broccoli, french bean, brinjal, sweet corn, beetroot or raw banana.

Amazing Carrot & Sweet Potato Pancake Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com

I always love to explore new ways to incorporate veggies in our diet. This Amazing Carrot & Sweet Potato Pancake  is  made with shredded carrot and sweet potato flavored with green chili, onion and ginger. 

It tastes like dal vada that I used to eat.  In my quest to reduce my intake of rice and wheat noodles, i am happy to share my search for this  quick and healthy meal.  

Sweet Potato is high in fiber,  Vitamin C, potassium , decent source of other vitamins and minerals, and rich in  antioxidant  called beta carotene which is very filling.  It can be boiled, steamed, baked or fried. 

Carrot is highly nutritious, high in Vitamin A,C and K, beta carotene,  vital for eye health, low in calories/carbs  and help improve your  immune system.

This Amazing Carrot and Sweet Potato Pancake  not only light but exceedingly tasty.  You could also turns this into cutlets instead of one big pancake.

MY SAMOSA STORY

My Samosa Story @ treatntrick,blogspot.com

Am so tempted to make my own  Samosa since my feeds are flooded with it.  Made Baked Samosa before but my kids requested the fried version.  The pastry was almost the same from one another but the filling might differ slightly. 

I have used potato, green peas, carrot, chili powder, turmeric, cumin seeds, ginger, chat masala and garam masala for My Samosa Story.   I fold the pastry differently. 

Roll out the pastry into circle, cut 1 cm strips lengthwise on half of the pastry, wet the the half with water, fold into two.  Stuff the filling at the center (strips one down), fold into thirds to get triangle shape. Wet the edges and seal properly,  this is ready to be fried until golden. 

My Samosa Story did not disappoint, it turned out golden color and  insanely delicious.  I have a tip for you for getting smooth pastry.  Fry the samosa using  medium heat  and the oil should not sizzle,  also do not crowd the pan.

FLUFFY HONEY ROLLS RECIPE

Fluffy Honey Rolls Recipe @ treatntrick.blogspot.com


Made from scratch,  these Fluffy Honey Rolls are incredible to start your day.

Using  instant yeast, bread flour,  honey and milk, they can be made with a  stand mixer too.   Fluffy Honey Rolls have a natural sweetness from honey.

I like the fact that you need not knead the dough  but leave them to proof longer  which will  help  to be more elastic, easier to roll and rise even  better.

They are great to make ahead then store in a refrigerator  Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with plastic wrap before storing. Remove from fridge. shape as desired.  Cover  and let rise until doubled before baking.
