Leftover Grilled Chicken Patties#SundayFunday

Got bored of having the same grilled chicken in lunch, dinner or in sandwiches, then this recipe is for you.  

I, usually do not have leftover grilled chicken, it's always over in two days.  But this time since we had to many outings, this was lying in my refrigerator.  
Converted the leftover into patties and they tasted very good. Make them is so easy since it's a mixture of chicken, eggs, bread crumbs,  onion, etc., with extra addition of seasoning make patties  you'll  love it! My mother used to make  these with leftover meat from the curry,  I made these to use leftover grilled chicken.
These patties can be frozen and stored in an airtight container in a single layer, fried without thawing directly whenever required. 

Ingredients
2 Cups Leftover Grilled Shredded Chicken
1 Cup Fresh Bread Crumbs
2 Eggs - lightly beaten
1 Medium Onion  - finely chopped
1 Tablespoon Coriander Leaves - finely chopped
1 Teaspoon  Black pepper powder
1/4 Teaspoon Garam Masala Powder
1 Tablespoon Lemon Juice
1 Tablespoon Rice Flour - optional
Salt  to taste 
Method
In a food processor add the chicken, onions  and run  it till the chicken is finely chopped. 
In a large bowl combine the chicken mixture, bread crumbs, rice flour,  eggs, garam masala and pepper powder, salt, lemon juice and  coriander, mix well; if mixture is too dry to form patties, mix in another lightly beaten egg. 
Mix well and form into  a nice dough.  
Form small patties, arrange them in tray. At this stage you can freeze these and then store in an airtight container to use whenever required.
Heat oil in a large skillet / pan over medium heat and fry patties in oil until golden brown.  Serve these with Sweet Chilly Sauce.  These make a great appetizer for a party too.

Mango Bread Pastry - No Bake Dessert#AlphabetChallenge

Made this with Alphonso mangoes so often because it is easy, delicious and yummy. My friends too made this pastry, when I, explained to them how to make it and it is a instant hit in their home too.  Make this for your guest and they will shower praises after enjoying this pastry. 
Ingredients 
4 Slices Bread - white or brown any will do

As Required Slices Mango - cut in the size of the bread slice
 ¾ Cup Vanilla Ice Cream 
For The Mango Glaze
2 Tablespoon Sugar
½ Cup Mango Puree
1 Teaspoon Gelatin or Agar Agar powder
2 Tablespoons Water
Method
For The Mango Glaze 

Soak the gelatin in water for 5 minutes.  
Take a another pan, mix together  mango puree and sugar, mix well add soaked gelatin.  Now switch on the flame and cook the mixture on low heat, stirring continuously, so that it doesn't stick to the bottom. Cook until it becomes translucent and thick 
 ( do not bring it to a boil). It's is ready. Take off flame, take it out on a bowl, keep aside to cool. 
For Assembling
Take the bread slices. Take out the ice cream and let it become a little soft so that it's easy to spread.  

First take one slice and spread a tablespoon ice cream nicely all over.  
Then place the slices of mango.  
Spread a little mango glaze on top.  
Then  spread little ice cream on it.  Take second slice of bread and place it on top then again continue the same process. First spread ice cream and in this way repeat the process until the fourth slice of bread finally is placed on top. 
Then apply layer of of ice cream and pour mango glaze on the top. Its summer and so hot as you can see as I am assembling it the ice cream is melting.
Now place this pastry in an airtight container, keep it in the freezer for half an hour or more to set.
When ready to serve take it out, trim the sides and cut from the center  - into two parts. So two pastries are ready , garnish with glazed cherries or mango pieces and serve chilled. 
Enjoy.. yum...

This is a delicious, quick  and moist cake for you and your little ones whenever they crave for cakes.
My Notes
Reserved  a small piece to grate for the topping. You can add all the chocolate and make it more chocolaty and gooey ..mmm yum. 


Make this in a large mug or two medium size mug. Since it will rise and then overflow.

The timing will change accordingly so keep a check

The butter should be softened .. the consistency like when you  spread it on a slice of bread.

You can also unmold this cake and cut into slices.  Just run a knife around the sides of the mug and mold.

Czech Lívance -Eggless Yeasted Pancakes#EatTheWorld

In Czech, these yeasted pancakes are called Lívance, and they represent a favorite sweet dessert. They are addictive! 
Traditional Czech pancakes are round small sized patties made of semi-liquid batter, leavened with yeast. The pancakes are fried in a pan with little butter, finally garnished with fruit, a scoop of sour cream, or just rolled in powdered sugar. They are served as a dessert/sweet dish. 
I have made this eggless and they are so soft fluffy, spongy and delicious. These are too good, my hubby enjoyed the pancakes with Mango Cream Dip. 
Makes : 16 Mini Pancakes
Ingredients
1
½+ - Cup Lukewarm Milk
1 Teaspoon Instant Yeast
1½ Cups All Purpose Flour
2 Tablespoons Granulated Sugar
2 Eggs - optional - I did not add - See Notes
¼ Teaspoon Salt
Butter or Desi Ghee/ Oil) - for frying
For The Mango Cream Dip
1 Mango - Alphonso or Kesar
2 Cubes Cream Cheese
½ Cup Non Diary Whipping Cream
Method
For The Mango Cream Dip
Remove the skin and chop the mango. In a small blender jar add the cream cheese, mango and whipping cream. Blend till smooth. Remove in a bowl.
Refrigerate to chill till we are ready to serve with the pancakes.
For The Pancakes
In a small saucepan, heat a cup of milk until it is  just lukewarm. Add sugar and yeast, then stir. Leave the mixture in a warm place until the yeast activates and foam with bubbles appears on the surface.
Pour the remaining lukewarm milk into a large bowl and add granulated sugar, flour and salt. Now add the activated yeast mixture. Using a mixer with a whisk attachment, briefly whisk until everything is well combined. The result should be a thin, semi-liquid batter. Place the bowl with the batter in a warm area to rise until it doubles in volume. 
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium low flame and brush the pan with  butter or desi ghee. Take ¼ cup of the risen batter and pour it into the pan.  Cook the Lívance for about a minute on one side and then 30 seconds on the other. Once cooked, transfer them to a plate.
Carefully wipe the pan with a paper towel after each batch to remove any blackened bits of butter/desi ghee.
Coat the pancakes in cinnamon sugar. Prepare coating mixture by combining icing sugar and cinnamon powder in a large bowl. Thoroughly coat the warm pancakes with the cinnamon sugar.
I served them with Mango Cream Dip and this was  perfect combo with the Livance. Do try these!! 
My Notes 
If you are using eggs then use ½ cup less milk.
