Rum Baba Or Baba Au Rum

Rum Baba Rum Baba – Let’s Dig Into This French Delight !!! In the month of January, while vacationing in Goa, had this amazing dessert called "Rum Baba" at a French restaurant. You may think it's same as Rum Balls. No there is no similarities in both desserts apart from one ingredient that is rum. Rum Baba or Baba Au Rum (French name) is a yeast cake soaked in syrup made with hard liquor, usually rum. It was served to us with whipped cream, strawberry and 30 ml white rum. Yesterday I tried to recreate this dessert with whatever I had in my pantry. Ya presentation of my dessert sucks but trust me it tastes exactly the same or shall I say better 😜. A bit lengthy process though.  So here we go... Ingredients: For baba: 1. Butter:                                                                                           9 tablespoons 2. All-purpose flour:                                                                       2 cups 3. Sugar:

Nagpur Special Chana Pohe

Nagpur special Chana-Tari

Happy holi 🙂🙂. So what's cooking today? I had poha - chana tari for breakfast today... It's pakka Nagpuri breakfast for hoil... Enjoy your holi and be safe.... ❤❤❤
In Nagpur city of India, pohe chana is very common breakfast. In the morning you will find many vendors selling this delicacy. Chana - chickpea curry - served at these stalls is very spicy and hot 🌶🌶. . 
But what I made today for breakfast is my version of curry. Of course easier version, 😉😉😃

Ingredients:

1. Brown chickpeas (chana)
2. Whole spices (black pepper, clove, black cardamom, green cardamom, star anise, cinnamon stick)
3. Oil
4. Bay leaf
5. Onion-garlic-green chilli-little ginger paste
6. Turmeric powder
7. Red chilli powder
8. Garam masala powder
9. Black masala powder
10. Salt
11. Water

Method:

1. Soak brown chickpeas overnight.
2. Pressure cook chana with some water. I made a small parcel of whole spices and added it to chana while cooking.
3. In a heated pan add oil. You need little bit more oil than normal.

4. Add bay leaf and onion-garlic-green chilli-little ginger paste. Sauté nicely.
5. Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, garam masala powder, black masala powder. Sauté for a minute. You can use chicken Or mutton masala powder as well.
6. Add cooked chana. But don't forget to remove whole spices parcel. Again sauté.
7. Add enough water and salt. Let the curry boil for 5 minutes on high flame. Reduce the flame and cook covered for 10-15 minutes. . 

Now serve this chana with poha, little bit onion and if you like you can add some shev as well. You can also have this curry with roti or rice.
