Mofo Gasy/Madagascar Yeasted Pancakes#EatTheWorld

Mofo Gasy (pronounced as muf gas)means "Malagasy bread", is a traditional breakfast from Madagascar, the large island off the southeast coast of Africa. It's also a common street food served as breakfast along with coffee/tea. Mofo gasy can also be made with coconut milk. Variations of the recipe occur based on the regions of Madagascar. On the coast, this bun is made from coconut milk and is known as mokary voanio or mokary coco. Mofo gasy is prepared with sweetened rice flour batter which is yeasted and cooked in greased circular moulds which ressembles quite like our own appe/aebleskiver pan.

2 Cups + 2 Tablespoons RiceFlour
¼ Teaspoon Instant yeast
2 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar
2 Tablespoons Freshly Grated Coconut

Let the rice paste cool completely. In a large bowl add the rice flour, cooked rice paste, instant yeast, sugar then add the coconut milk and mix everything with your hand until it turns semi thick batter.
Keep it in warm place to ferment / doubles in volume for 3-6 hours. Once the batter ferment/doubles in volume, mix the batter well. Beat the egg, add this to the batter, mix well.
Heat an aebleskiver/appe pan over low heat.
Brush the cavities with the desi ghee/oil. Add some batter in each cavity till its full. Cover the pan and let the pancake cook for 2-3 minutes. Take the lid off and turn each bread over and let it cook till done.
Remove from the cavity and place the mofo gasy in a plate.
Repeat steps 8-12 using the remaining batter.

Murukulu Janthikalu#SundayFunday

Murukulu also known as Janthikulu is a savory snack of the Andhra cuisine. This Murukku is a mixture of urad dal flour and rice flour. Its easy to make and a addictive snack. We love the crispness and the buttery taste of this snack.
An ideal festival savory snack, these are vegan & gluten free, prefect for kid's tiffin. They stay crisp and fresh in your pantry shelf for a month or more if stored in an airtight container.

1 Cup Measurement = 200 Ml
Ingredients
4 Cups Rice Flour
1 Cup Urad Dal flour
2 Tablespoons White Butter or any
1 Cup Warm Water or as required
1 Teaspoon Salt or to taste
1 Teaspoon Red Chilly powder - optional
1 Teaspoon Each White & Black Sesame seeds
Oil for deep frying

Method
Take a pan dry roast urad dal flour lightly for a few minutes. See that it does not change color or burn. Keep aside to cool.
In a bowl add flours, sesame seeds, salt, butter, mix well till it represents bread crumbs. 
Then add warm water little by little as need to make a soft dough.
Take the murukulu press ( a disk with three holes)
add the dough into it and press on top into hot oil a make a 
Or this one, make a round murukku. 
Fry till light golden brown on medium flame, then remove. Keep it on an absorbent paper to remove the excess oil. When cooled store in an airtight container. 
This is a snack that can be made any time for children to have in the evening or to take as tiffin. My daughter use to take this as her tiffin to school.  

My Notes 
Grind 1 kg rice and 1/4 kg lightly roasted urad dal. Grind it in the flour mill. Make these any time in a jiffy.

Use white butter (this is homemade butter, which is used to make desi ghee) , it give a nice taste and make the murukulu more crispy.
You can add ajwain or coarsely ground cumin seeds.

Spanish Crema Catalana#Foodieextravaganza

Spanish Crema Catalana is a very easy recipe and uses rice flour  instead of corn flour, which, in my opinion, gives the creama catalana a substantially lighter feeling in the mouth. It's a perfect dessert, you will love it.  
Since I do not have a blow torch, broiled the top in oven for just 4 -5 minutes.

Ingredients

500 Ml Whole milk
5 Tablespoons Sugar
5 Egg yolks
1 Whole Orange peel
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla essence
2 Tablespoons Rice Flour

2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
Method 

Use a little of milk to dissolve the rice flour and make sure there’s no lumps left.
Put the rest of the milk, the sugar and the egg yolks in the cooking pot you are going to use and  whisk  the ingredients together. Add the rice flour milk and whisk  again to form a smooth liquid. Add the orange peel and the vanilla essence and put the pot on the stove to simmer. Stir continuously (to avoid lumps never stop stirring) with a  spoon until  it comes to a boiling point.  Keep stirring till it thickens a little.  Switch off the flame and continue stirring for a minute more. Remove the orange peel
pour into individual  pots. Let it cool and once tempered cover the pots with cling film  and keep in the fridge for, at least 6-8 hours.
Burn the sugar before serving the “crema” , I spread a tablespoon of brown sugar on top of each and broil it in a preheated oven at 200°C for 4 -5 minutes and it's done.
Serve and enjoy this beautiful dessert!! You will love it's gluten free too.

Besan Cheelas are simple spiced gram flour pancakes from Indian cuisine. Cheelas / Crepes or Pancakes  of chickpea flour are know as Besan ka cheela/Gramflour crepes/Kadalamaavu Dosai.
Isn't it interesting that crepes / pancakes in India are referred to as, cheela's in Gujarat, Rajasthan and in the North and in the South they are call it dosai or dosa, since it's very similar to dosa only the names are different . But unlike the South Indian dosa,  there is no soaking of grains,  grinding and fermentation process.  This is an instant cheela / dosa recipe.
This is a simple and instant crepe/ pancake. Since it's made to chickpea flour in the south is called Kadalamaavu, hence it's Kadalmaavu Dosai. Its quick and very easy to make and can be made with readily available ingredients in your kitchen pantry. Cheela's can be enjoyed with a chutney or ketchup or any sauce of your choice.  It's quick and easy to make Indian breakfast or great evening snack accompanied with a cup of tea or coffee.
Ingredients
1 Cup Besan
2 Tablespoon Rice flour
3/4 Teaspoon Chilly powder
1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
A pinch of Baking soda

A pinch Asafoetida
Green chilly  - finely chopped 
Salt to taste
2 Tablespoon Coriander leaves - finely chopped
1 Spring Onion - finely chopped
1 Tomato - deseeded, finely chopped
Oil as required

Method 

Take all the dry ingredients in a bowl, to this add the chopped coriander leaves, green chilly, the spring  onion and tomato together and and mash it lightly with your hand. Gradually add water and mix it to a slightly thin batter (The batter should not be too watery or thick).
Keep the dosa griddle on a medium flame, grease it with a teaspoon of oil. Pour the batter in the center and spread it. Drizzle a teaspoon of oil and cook it for a minute.Now flip the dosa to the other side and cook it for a minute, add another tsp of oil. Remove it from the griddle.
Serve it immediately with coriander or mint chutney. 
My Notes
One important point while preparing this, it should be cooked in low medium flame until it becomes slightly crispy. Otherwise, you will get the raw taste of besan which you will not like.

These  should be served hot and crisp.
