Mini Raisins Buns#BreadBakers

This month for Bread Bakers,  am,  the host. On my to do list for the event was Schiacciata con l’uva, had specially frozen the grapes for this purpose. 
Went on a holiday my fridge main tripped as the result everything in the fridge got spoilt, even the cheese mildewed. Had a tough time cleaning the fridge after I, came from a enjoyable holiday. Had to change my recipe and make these mini raisins buns, since fresh grapes are not available in this season. 

Here, have used fresh yeast that I bought, from Germany. In Germany I believe, they use fresh yeast to bake their breads and this yeast is too good. The bread has a delicious flavor.

Makes 8 Mini Buns
Ingredients
 280 Grams All Purpose Flour 
140 Ml Full Fat Milk 
10 Grams Fresh Yeast 
1 Large Egg 
50 Grams Margarine 
25 Grams Fine Sugar 
½ Teaspoon Salt 
½ Teaspoon Vanilla Sugar 
75 Grams Golden Rasins 

Method 
In a mixing bowl or food processor  add the yeast, milk, when the yeast starts to bubble,  add the flour, egg, and run the processor till it forms into a dough on low speed.  Then add the sugar, vanilla sugar, salt, margarine and again run the food processor on high speed to make a nice soft and smooth dough for about 8 to 10 minutes. 
Take this out on a lightly dusted floured work surface, add the raisins, fold and stretch the dough till this is well incorporated. Keep it in a oiled bowl covered with a towel till it doubles in volume.

Grease and line a baking tray well. Preheat the oven a 180°C.
When it doubles in volume, take out on to floured surface and deflate the dough. 
Cut into equal pieces, weighing around 80 grams each roll it into smooth balls place them in a the prepared baking tray. 

Brush with egg wash and keep them covered till 
they double in size. 
Then bake them for round 15 to 18 minutes. Baking time may also vary depending on the size of the buns, type and accuracy of your oven. 
Place them on a wire rack to cool.
See the golden raisins peeking
The aroma of these buns  was so tempting had two of these hot just like that with a cup of tea... delicious!!  The remaining got over for our breakfast the next morning.

Carrot Paneer Parathas#BreadBakers

It's time for posting this month's Bread Bakers event for which the theme is "Breakfast Breads". Our Host is Felice Geoghegan, thank you dear for hosting this event.

Carrot Paneer Paratha is a soft and delicious flatbread served as a breakfast, filling and healthy. Have two to three of these and it keep's you going, full of energy, till past lunch time.

Ingredients
2 Cups  Heaped  Whole Wheat flour
2 Long Red  Carrots -  grated
150 Grams Paneer  - grated
1 Small Onion - chopperized
2  Green chillies 
- chopperized
2 Tablespoons Coriander leaves 
- chopperized 
1 Teaspoon Cumin powder
1 Teaspoon Amchur powder or to taste
1 Teaspoon Red Chilly powder or to taste
1 Tablespoon Heaped Ghee
Salt to taste
Water to knead
Method

Grate the carrots  and paneer, keep aside.
In a large bowl or plate (what we call thaal, paraat ) add the  wheat flour, grated carrot and paneer and rest of the ingredients mix well.  
Then add water 1/4 cup at a time and knead  into a soft pliable dough. Keep aside covered for 10 minutes.  
Then divide into equal balls
Dust the work surface with dry flour and flatten a ball of dough
roll it into  a circle / thick parathas.
Heat the tawa / skillet and roast the paratha till brown spots appear on the bottom side.
flip and roast till brown spots appear.
Drizzle oil on top and cook till golden brown.
In the same way roast / bake all the parathas
Serve hot 
Enjoy with curds or kethup.

My Notes
I prefer to use red carrots for flatbreads / parathas since they are soft and juicy.  
If you do not get these, the orange ones / Ooty carrotstoo are fine.  

Taste for salt and spices while kneading the dough. Adjust them according to your taste.

Idli – Steamed Sourdough Rice and Lentil Buns#BreadBakers

Bake a gluten free yeast, sourdough or quick bread for this month's, event for Bread Bakers our Host is  Stacy Livingston Rushton.

Idlis are naturally fermented buns, yeast free, gluten free, vegan and oil free too. They are soft, spongy and easy to digest.

Making idlis, is not difficult, nor does it need a lot of attention, the sourdough however, does need preparation time for soaking and fermentation. So, just plan it a day in advance before making them since it requires soaking time and depending on weather 8 to 12 hours fermentation time.

While a basic proportion for idli is using 2 parts rice to 1 part lentils, for the texture and softness I, sometimes use 2 and 1/2 cups parboiled rice or idli rawa to 3/4 part lentils / urad dal and 1/2 cup of rice flakes or poha into the batter also, which  makes a huge difference, it gives a fantastic soft texture. To make a good idli it's essential to use a short grain parboiled rice or what it's also know as idli rice or even idli rawa which is readily available , rather than the long grain basmati rice or any other raw / cooking rice.

Ingredients
2 Cups Parboiled Rice / Idli Rice
3/4 cup White lentils / Urad Dal
1/2 Cup Poha /  Beaten Rice Flakes
1/2 Teaspoon Fenugreek seeds
1 Teaspoon Salt or to taste
Water for soaking and grinding
Oil for Greasing the moulds

Method

Soak the rice and the lentils separately  for at least 4 to 5 hours. Soak the fenugreek seeds along with the lentils.
Wash and drain the grains.

Just before you start blending wash and soak the poha in just a little water.

Place the half the  rice in the blender with 1/4 cup  water and  blend in a blender, pausing if needed to ensure a smooth paste with just a hint of  coarseness.  Grind the remaining rice also the same way.  Remove this into a large pot  / vessel, or 
 a large container with a lid which has  enough space to allow the batter to ferment and expand, much like bread dough. 
In the same  blender  (it is not necessary to wash the blender) add in the soaked lentils / urad dal with 1/4 cup of water and blend the mixture until light and super soft and fluffy.  Remove this into the same pot / vessel of the ground rice.  Now grind soaked  beaten rice and blend for another minute. 
Add this also to the blended lentils and rice mixture,  whisk well until they are mixed to form a smooth batter and light and fluffy.  Keep this batter overnight   or more depending on the weather ( in summer it take 6 to 7 hours ) to let the batter ferment.  A good batter will actually double in size.

 In a idli cooker or  large stock pot, or a pressure cooker.  that fits the idli moulds.  Add about 2 inches of water.    Bring the water to a simmer.  Brush oil  on the idli moulds.
Add salt to the fermented batter and mix it lightly, the batter should have the consistency of thick pancake or waffle batter. 

Pour the batter into the mould till about 3/4 full, allowing a little room to let the buns rise.  Gently lower the filled idli moulds  in the idli cooker and cover it with a lid. Let it steam on high flame for 12 t0 15 minutes or till a knife inserted comes out clean.

Turn off the heat and let the idlies rest for about 10 minutes, before gently un-molding them and serving.
Dunk them in mouthwatering Instant Sambar and enjoy..
