Keto Chinese Steamed Buns#BreadBakers

If you are on Keto and longing for Chinese steamed buns ,then these are for you which are not only gluten free, but pillow-soft, delicious and will go well with any Asian food. You can also make a sandwich with whatever filling you want. 
These also freeze very well. If you want them sweet, then you can increase the sweetener in the batter. I enjoyed them as a savory sandwich and also make these to enjoy with gravy instead of rice. These do not have an egg taste or flavor. To cut that flavor, have added a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. Do try these they are soo..oo.. good!
Ingredients
½ Cup Almond Flour
⅛ Teaspoon Stevia powder
1 Teaspoon Baking powder
⅛ Teaspoon Salt
4 Large Eggs
1 Tablespoon Mayonnaise
1 Teaspoon Apple Cider Vinegar
Method
Mix all dry ingredients together and mix well then add the eggs and mayonnaise mix till combined.
Place a 2 tablespoons of batter in each silicone mold and steam it for 10 minutes on high flame or on a water bath in the oven 180°C for 13 minutes. 
Cool  & unmold.
Slice and  make sandwiches with the filling of your choice 
or dunk them in any gravy.
My Notes
I used an aluminum cupcake tin and they didn't stick at all. I used steel plates to make large ones, but batter did stick to the bottom. Make them in silicon mold or place a greased parchment paper before adding the batter to the steel plates.

Instant White Dhokla#Alphabet Challenge

Homemade Instant White Dhokla is breakfast/snack item of the state of Gujarat in India. Since dhokla goes through a steaming process, it is healthy. It is a perfect addition to your weight loss plan because it is rich in protein, fiber, and other nutrients. It is ideal for breakfast or an evening snack option.

Cup Measurement 1 Cup = 200Ml
Ingredients
1 Cup Raw Rice
½ Cup Poha
½ Cup Yogurt
¼ Cup Fine Rawa / Semolina
½ Teaspoon Salt or to taste
1 Sachet Eno Fruit Salt or 1 Teaspoon
For The Tadka
2 Tablespoon Oil
1 Teaspoon Mustard Seeds
2 Green Chillies - slit
1 Teaspoon Sesame Seeds
1 Teaspoon Chopped Coriander - optional
1 Teaspoon Sugar
½ Cup Water 
Method
Wash the rice well. Soak the rice and poha for an hour or maximum 3 hours. After that drain all the water. Grind the rice and poha with the yogurt to a fine paste. Remove this into a bowl, mix the fine rawa and keep it aside for 15 to 20 minutes. 
In the meantime grease an 8 inch plate well with oil. Keep a steamer ready with enough water to steam the dhokla. When the water begins to boil place the plate on the stand.
After 20 minutes add the salt and eno and whisk it well till it turns frothy. Pour this into the plate. Sprinkle a bit of chilly powder on top. Cover the lid with a clean cloth so that the water does not fall on the dhokla and make it soggy. 
Steam on medium high flame for 15 to 20 minutes or until a knife or tooth pick inserted comes out clean. Switch off the flame. Let the dhokla cool. When it cools cut into pieces.
To Make The Tadka
Heat oil in a pan add the mustard seed, when they splutter add in green chillies and fry for a minute add the water and sugar bring this to a rolling boil add the coriander leaves, sesame seeds. Pour this evenly on the cut dhokla. Let is soak for few minutes. Serve hot with chutney. 
My Notes
If you do not have fine semolina then use the regular one only pulse it for 2 or 3 times in the mixer.
If you are making a double batch and do not have a dhokla stand wherein you can steam 2 -3 plates at a time. Then divide the batter in two parts. Add the eno to one batch at time and steam when that is steamed then add the eno to the second batch. You have to be quick once you add the eno or else the dhokla will not be fluffy.
This white dhokla is a thin layer. So do not add too much batter in the plate.

Snowdon Pudding#EatTheWorld

A traditional steamed pudding recipe with a citrus sponge and topped with raisins – a comforting dessert from the Snowdon region - North Wales. Snowdon pudding, as it’s called, is flavored with lemon marmalade, since I couldn't get hold of lemon marmalade, used orange marmalade made out of palm sugar.
I have also made it with vegetarian suet - clarified butter. This is served lemon sauce traditionally, but, I preferred drizzling a little honey over the top when it was still warm.
This is a delicious pudding, made two bowls of the same, one my hubby took for a brunch party with friends.

Ingredients
65 Grams Suet/Clarified Butter - melted
15 Grams Corn flour
75 Grams Brown Sugar
120 Grams Fresh Bread Crumbs
50 Grams Golden Raisins
3 Large Eggs
75 Grams Lemon or Orange Marmalade
1 Teaspoon Lemon or Orange Zest
2 Tablespoons Honey - to drizzle on top

Method
Mix all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl, keeping a half of the raisins a side.
Beat the eggs and marmalade, sugar together, then stir in the melted clarified butter, give it a mix. Add this into the dry ingredients mix it well.
Grease a pudding mold and sprinkle the leftover raisins over the bottom.
Pour in the batter, cover the mouth with of greaseproof paper or a double foil, creating a two pleat across the center should the pudding expand over the top of the pudding mold.
Place the mold into a pan of boiling water, cover the pan with a lid and steam till done ( since I used two bowls to make these it took just 35 minutes ), ensuring that the water in the pan never gets lower than ¼ of the way up the level of the mold. 

Do not steam them too long or they will turn hard and loose it softness. Switch off the flame and let it cool in pan. When still hot remove the mold from the pan and let cool a little before tipping it out onto a serving plate.
Drizzle with the honey whilst still warm. Slice and enjoy hot or cold.

Laham Fuq il-Fwar - Maltese Steamed Beef#EatTheWorld

Laham fuq il-Fwar, is steamed beef, it's a very popular and traditional Maltese recipe. Just add salt, pepper powder, beef or chicken broth and this dish is ready to steam. It's a simple with not much spice but has a delicious flavor.  For this an important tip is that semi freeze the chunk of beef undercut and then you will be able to slice is thinly. 
Place the sliced garlic then the meat slices on top in a oven proof pie plate or a large enamel plate,  place it over the pot of boiling water and plate with any lid that would fit. 
I used a rack on the big pot then placed the plate and covered it tightly with aluminum foil to lock the steam inside and kept it for an hour and 15 minutes and it was done. 
There is no frying or sautéing involved and needs little prep, but it is really delicious and the meat is super tender!

Serves Two
Ingredients

300 Grams Beef undercut/Sirloin - sliced thinly as possible
8 Cloves Garlic - sliced thinly
1 Teaspoon Olive Oil
½ Teaspoon Beef Stock Powder
6 - 8 Cherry Tomatoes - halved
Salt & Freshly Ground Pepper
Freshly Chopped Parsley - optional
¼ Cup Water

Method
Take an enamel tin plate or use a round oven proof pie dish or shallow pan. Place the sliced beef in the pan, place the sliced garlic under and around the beef slices. Mix the stock powder with a quarter cup of water and pour this over the meat. Place the tomatoes around the meat, season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with fresh parsley and drizzle olive oil over the top.
Place it over the pot of boiling water and plate with any lid that would fit, I used a rack on the big pot then placed the plate and covered it tightly with aluminum foil to lock the steam inside. Kept it for an hour and 15 minutes and it was done.
Soft juicy and succulent slices of meat.
You can thicken the sauce with a little cornstarch or arrowroot powder and water if too thin. I did not thicken the sauce, have this with mashed garlicky potatoes which absorb all the lovely juices or you can have this crusted bread, I had with garlicky cauliflower mash.
Serve with a sprinkle of freshly chopped parsley(optional).
