Whiskey Sour Mocktail#SundayFunday

This non-alcoholic take on a whiskey sour, made with Assam leaf tea for a bourbon-like flavor. It’s so refreshing and a perfect non-alcoholic alternative for a cocktail.

This whiskey sour mocktail has all the refreshing flavors of the traditional cocktail but without any alcohol! The combination of tart lemon has a delicious flavor profile that can be enjoyed at any time of day. Thanks to non-alcoholic whiskey, this mocktail is about as close as you can get to the real thing!

Serves One
Ingredients
25Ml Lemon Juice
½ Egg White
¾ Tablespoons sugar syrup, or to taste
Ice Cubes
1 Lemon Slice or Orange Slice to serve
For the infusion
½ Teaspoon Assam Tea Leaves
¼ Teaspoon Vanilla Extract - optional

Method 

First, make the infusion. Tip the tea leaves into a heatproof teapot or jug and pour over 150ml boiled water from the kettle. Immediately strain through a fine mesh sieve into a second heatproof jug, discarding the tea leaves, so the tea doesn’t become too strong. Add the vanilla ( I did not add this) and leave to cool.

Pour 150ml of the cooled tea infusion into a cocktail shaker, then add the lemon juice, egg white, sugar syrup ( I did not add and it tasted just as good) and a handful of ice. Shake until the outside of the shaker feels very cold. 

Strain the mocktail into an ice-filled tumbler, then garnish with a slice of lemon or a orange slice, to serve in the style of a classic whiskey sour.

My Notes 
I did not add any sugar syrup and it tasted just as good. Loved this drink.

Keto Wiener Beef Schnitzel#EatTheWorld

This is a easy keto/low carb Schnitzel recipe for crispy fried and seasoned beef steak.

This is a perfect recipe for one who has gluten intolerance. Using almond meal in the place of breadcrumbs, I was able to create a delicious (and healthy!) substitute for breaded schnitzel. 

Serves One
Ingredients
300 Grams One Big Undercut Beef Steak - flatten
½ Teaspoon Pink Himalayan Salt
½ Teaspoon White or Black pepper powder
½ Teaspoon Mustard sauce
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce - Sugar Free
1 Egg
½ Cup Almond Flour - to coat
Olive Oil For Frying

Method 
Lay down a  strip of plastic wrap or cloth on your kitchen countertop. Place beef piece on the plastic wrap or cloth, cover with another strip of plastic or cloth so the meat is sandwiched between two layers. Use a mallet to flatten the steak until it's ¼ inch thick. Season with salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Refrigerate this for at least an hour or overnight.

When ready to fry, dip in beaten egg, then with almond flour. Pat the almond flour coating onto all visible sides of the steak, making sure there’s an even layer of coating over all the visible surfaces. Refrigerate the coated schnitzel for at least 30 minutes.
Pour oil into a skillet until it’s deep enough for shallow frying. Heat the oil slowly over medium. While oil is heating,
When the oil is hot (but not smoking or splattering), fry the coated steak until they are golden brown on both sides, for about 4 minutes per side.

After frying, set the schnitzel on a paper towel and pat them dry to soak off excess oil. Serve hot garnished with sliced cucumber and feta cheese with a sprinkle of black pepper powder.

Keto Cabbage Egg Toast#SundayFunday

This Korean Keto Cabbage Egg Toast recipe is not just affordable but very tasty for breakfast or as a main course meal. This is a satisfying, healthy and deliciously filling meal. An absolute Keto /low carb meal.

Serves One
Ingredients
150 Grams Finely Shredded Cabbage
2 Large Eggs
1½ Tablespoons Oats Fiber
½ Teaspoon Mixed seasoning - See My Notes
Salt to taste
Ham slices
Cheese slices
Butter and olive oil required
For The Sauce
1 Tablespoons Mayonnaise
1 Teaspoon Sriracha Sauce

Method

Combine all sauce ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

Wash the shredded cabbage twice in sufficient water drain well squeezing to remove as much moisture as you can, keep aside.

Heat a square or tamayoki pan/ skillet with oil or butter over low to medium-low heat.

While pan is heating, in a bowl mix the cabbage, seasoning, salt, egg and oat fiber well. Then add the mixture to the heated pan in an even layer.  

Divide it into two equal toast with a spatula. Cover and cook until lightly golden on the bottom. Use lower heat for a smaller pan since the toast will be thicker. Carefully slide the omelet (uncooked side up) onto a large plate, cover with the skillet, and flip. This ensures the toast will not break apart while flipping. Spread a tad bit of butter on top and all sides. 

Top with cheese and ham slice

Cover it with the cooked/brown side of the other toast. Return the pan on the burner.

Press the top with a spatula so that it is firm throughout and cheese is melts and lightly flip it to brown evenly on both sides. 

Transfer it to a plate and serve immediately, with sauce on the side or drizzled on top. 

My Notes

I used the seasoning that has red chili flakes, pepper powder and mixed herbs.

Pork Chops In Homemade Recheado Masala#SundayFunday

These are spicy and flavorful pork chops! With a few simple tricks to make them delicious and fall of the bones. If you have tender pork chops then do not pressure cook them first.

Serves One
Ingredients
2 Pork chops
3 Tablespoons Homemade Recheado Masala 
Coconut Oil/ Desi Ghee -as required for frying

Method 

Marinate the pork chops in the Recheado Masala and refrigerate them overnight or for at least an hour so that the meat can tenderize and absorb all the flavor.

Place the marinated pork chops in a pressure pan and take one whistle on high flame then reduce the flame and keep it for 10minutes. After 10 minutes switch off the flame and let the cooker cool completely.

Once cooled brush them with mayonnaise and then fry it in coconut oil or desi ghee.

Keto Chilled Cucumber & Buttermilk Soup#Soupswappers

This no-cook summery soup, perfect for hot summers. It has a delicious creamy texture with a hint of spice and tangy flavor from buttermilk which is so refreshing and low carb.
It's so quick and easy to make. Just add all ingredients to a blender and blend.. ta..da it's ready.

Serves One
Ingredients
1 Medium Cucumber - chopped
1 Cup Buttermilk
A Tiny Piece Ginger - chopped 1/2 inch piece
1 Green Chilly - not spicy & deseeded
Salt to taste

Fresh mint leaves to garnish

Method 

Take chopped cucumber in a blender. Add rest of the ingredients to a blender and blend. Transfer into a serving bowl and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 2 -3 hours.

Garnish with mint leaves and serve.

My Notes
Buttermilk should be lump free. If you do not have buttermilk, you can mix equal quantities fresh yogurt and water and whisk till smooth.

If you want a dark green color then blend 3 -4 mint leaves.
