Hey, am up with another post. Without making a long speech let me tell you that this a delicious recipe, with a lovely combination of mangoes and  cream cheese. Cheese cakes are something in the form of a pudding, which are extremely creamy and luscious. And for all mango lovers this would be extreme form of ecstasy. Since I did this in cups, I dint add gelatin, because it does not requires getting set as it can be directly dolloped in your mouth straight from the cups... But if you are doing it in a spring form pan you can use gelatin for getting it set... I am so lazy to melt and mix gelatin, that I prefer this method. Ingredients:   mango pulp- pulp of 1 big mango, sugar- 5 tbsp. or adjust according to ur taste level, mango essence- 1 tsp(optional) whipping cream- 250 mls cream cheese- 300 gms digestive biscuits- depending on how many cups you want to make, crushed with some butter to line the bo...

Hi friends. I am up with an iftar special post. Since holy month of Ramadan has started I thought, I will bring you something you can try for Ramadan while breaking fast. As all muslims know, It is sunnah of the prophet to break fast with dry dates, if dry dates not available, you can break your fasts with dates, or else with water. This is the usual criteria. Rest of the snacks come later. Well its always not the snack for some people, while breaking fast. They break fast with some dates and fresh juices, and after performing the salah, they proceed with dinner directly, so that they don't get overloaded with food. Well that's how I am too sometimes. Now, If we were orderd to fast during Ramadan, It is to put a limit to our normal diet and to let us know the starve of the hungry people, Then why should we go for a whole lot of food? Even if I prepare snacks I just make one or two of them, and then have some fruits too. I love this month, as it is not like the rest of the y...

Hello friends, lately I know  I've been delating my posts, sorry because I was finding it hard to squeeze some time for blogging out of my tight schedule... This was something I made last week, and was trying to post this recipe, but as my home was filled with guests this weekend, I got busy with cleaning and outing. This is a very simple recipe made with boneless chicken assembled on skewers and needs to be grilled in the oven. But you can also cook this chicken without wooden skewers on a normal frying pan or skew the chicken on wooden skewers and fry them until all sides are well cooked... I cooked the chicken in oven for approximately 20 minutes, but as I was not happy with its appearance, to burn it a little on outside, I fried them lightly on a frying pan. Its all upto you how want them to be cooked and how you want it, weather on skewers or separate pieces etc. I like it on skewers  as it, attracts, most of the time, the guests and kids....   Now to the...

Hi, Iam up with another sweet post again.... If you people are going mad at me for posting only sweet recipe, please do let me know, I'll try to bring a change... Now, talking about this coconut laddoo or coconut balls, this is one thing I cannot resist eating once made... Whenever my mum makes this at home, I go near the stove and keep drooling over it until she makes them into balls.... the first ball made pops obviously into my mouth, and each balls disappears soon before getting assembled into the plate... its such yummilicious one... This time when I made this, I made it for a special friend in college, who is in her third trimester of pregnancy... I invited her home for giving a small treat and packed some of these for her as an edible gift... Well, I reserved some for me too...:P This is such easy thing to be made at home and all you need is dessicated coconut and condensed milk... thats it. And the procedure too is such easy one.. All you need is mixing of both ingredi...
