Malabar style chicken dum biriyani is popular in the Muslim community of North Kerala. A korma is made with chicken and spices and that is layered with flavoured cooked rice and baked to perfection. This is slightly different from Hyderabadi dum biriyani and if you are living in Kerala you must have tasted this biriyani atleast once. This recipe is actually from a very close friend of my amma's and she has been making this for some 40 plus years and this is the biriyani I grew up on and amma only makes this biriyani. The cheat she does is when making the korma, she grinds some cashewnuts, raisins etc with green chilies, shallots (cheriya ulli), and coriander leaves; which can also be ground separately. But since she has been making this biriyani from many many years, amma just made the whole biriyani process easy and simple; which you can understand when you watch my video. Do not get put off by the long ingredient list; its because of the whole spices used in korma and rice....

Would you like to indulge in this low calorie and healthy chocolate ice cream; when I meant low calorie, I meant no sugar, no milk, or cream!! This "nice cream" as it is called is vegan and has less calories, just 50 calories in a scoop; now that is something great if you want to indulge in ice cream and shed a few pounds too. No guilt indulgence is what I love the best. Frozen bananas are the key ingredient in this recipe and I used cocoa powder, vanilla essence to give the much needed flavour and some black coffee (leftover morning coffee) to just balance all the flavours. The black coffee sort of helped the frozen bananas to mix well and be creamy. You need a food processor to make this or a mini chopper both works well, if using a blender you will need to mix it with a spoon once in a while. If the bananas are really ripe then the ice cream will be really sweet and that means you can avoid sugar, so make sure you freeze ripe bananas. If you like some extra sweet...

Peppers and egg sandwich is my hubby's and son's favourite breakfast and this easy and quick Italian flavoured breakfast found its way late here on my blog. Egg sandwich are one of my easy breakfast option on Sundays; I always make this in a hurry and thus did not get to take a picture. When I mentioned this to Homey; he said he will wake me up early morning the next day so that I can take a video and plus he will get to have his favourite breakfast....how cool was that?? Okay back to peppers and egg sandwich; it is made with capsicum and onion and thus got the name "peppers" because the flavour of capsicum stands out. You can make it with both green and red capsicum or a mix of both, but my friend who gave me the recipe (he lives in Italy) insists that red capsicum should be used; apparently that makes this sandwich perfect in taste and flavour.  And, yes that is vouched by the men in my house....they simply love peppers & egg sandwich with red pepper. ...
