Dinner Rolls With Seeds In Paper Tea Cups#BreadBakers

These quick homemade dinner rolls with seeds are easy to make, soft, fluffy and delicious. I made these glass shaped by baking them in paper tea cups. 

These look so cute..aren't they!!

Makes 7  Rolls

Ingredients
300 Grams Bread Flour
200 Ml Warm Milk
11 Grams Hefe / Fresh Yeast
2 Teaspoons Sugar
3/4 Teaspoon Salt
2 Tablespoons Oil
50 Ml Water
7  Paper Tea Cups

3 Tablespoons  Mixed seeds - black & white sesame seeds and flak seeds
Method

In a mixing bowl or food processor add the sugar, yeast, milk, when the yeast starts to bubble, add the flour, salt and oil, and run the processor on low speed adding the water a little at a time till it forms into a dough. Now run the food processor on high speed to make a nice soft and smooth dough for about 8 to 10 minutes.

Shape the dough into a ball and lightly coat with oil. Cover with damp cloth and set it at room temperature to double in volume.

Brush 7 paper tea cups with oil and keep aside.

When the dough has doubled, punch it down and divide it into 7 parts.  I used the kitchen scale to make equal parts around 79 to 80 grams each.

Place  balls, seam side down, in each  cup. Brush them with milk, sprinkle seeds cover theses cups  with damp cloth , put it in a warm spot and let them rise till they double in size.

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.Once they double in size and bake them until golden brown, about  25 to 30 minutes.

Remove the rolls from the oven, and brush immediately with the  melted butter. 

After 5 minutes, un mould, carefully transfer them to a rack.

Serve warm, or at room temperature. Enjoy them for breakfast or dinner.

Salsa Potato Stacks In Muffin Pan#BakingBloggers

Who does not love potatoes? They are most loved and a sure shot winner at any party, use them as in a main course dish or in a casserole, soup or serve them as appetizers/finger food, they are enjoyed by all. These stacks are healthy, incredibly versatile, be imaginative and use any added  ingredients / veggies of your choice.

The potato stacks are thick enough to be eaten as finger food, but are a little messy. Be sure to give napkins to each one as you are serving. I have made these for a crowd. 

 Baked  2 lots of the above.  Use silicone moulds so that you don't have to wash them.  Wipe it with a kitchen towel and reuse them, these are a real blessing to use for a crowd. 

Ingredients
Olive oil for coating the muffin tin
6-8 Large Potatoes - sliced in roundels
2 Cups  Homemade Salsa Sauce
2 Tablespoon Dried Thyme
2 Tablespoon Black Pepper powder
2 Teaspoon Chilly Flakes
Salt to taste
5-6 Tablespoons Olive Oil
Grated Cheeza Cheese as required
Slices Of Homemade Pickled Jalapenos 

Sliced Black or Green Olives as required 

Method
Preheat the oven to 180˚C. Lightly Oil a muffin pan / moulds. Keep aside.

Peel and thinly slice the potatoes, I, used my V Slicer.

 Place all the slices in a big bowl, add the thyme, chilly flakes, black pepper powder, salt and olive oil and give it a good mix so that all the spices are coat the potato slices.

Spread a teaspoon salsa on the bottom of each muffin hole.

Take two potato slices and place them in each muffin hole on top of the salsa. Then place some slices of olives and a slice or two of jalapeno. 

Sprinkle a little cheese. 

Stack two more potato slices on top, the same size or a little smaller than the bottom slices and top with one pickled jalapeño slice, sliced olives and then top it with grated cheese.

Top it with little salsa sauce, leave of coriander leaves. Like wise prepare all the muffin pan/ moulds. 

Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil, again spread a little cheese on top of the potato stacks, and broil for 2 - 3 minutes. 

The potatoes should be a little crispy around the edges. 

Scoop out the potato stacks from the muffin tin with fork and a spoon onto a serving plate Serve warm with napkins. 

These vanished in a jiffy, just got 3 to take a pic. These are excellent for tailgating parties.

Firni / Phirni

Firni / Phirni is a sweet pudding, made by boiling milk, sugar and rice, it's popular sweet dish of India, made for festivals or important occasions/celebrations. The rice used in this sweet dish is coarsely powdered, so its without the individual grains of rice and with extra goodies of dry fruits and creamy. I am, sure you will loved it.

Ingredients  

500 ML Milk
2 Tablespoons Heaped Basmati Rice 

½ Cup Fresh Cream  

¼ Cup Sugar  

2 Tablespoons Each Almonds & Pistachio - silvered 

½  Teaspoon Cardamom powder
Method 

Wash the rice and soak it for 2 hours.  After that drain all the water in a fine mesh colander and then dry it on a clean cloth  for  an hour or so ( it should be slightly wet not completely dry).  After that grind it to a coarse powder. 

Boil milk, add  rice, bring it to boil, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Reduce the flame on medium low and stir continuously. Add more milk if starts to thicken and cook till the rice is done. 

Now add the sugar and again stir till the sugar melts.   Now add the fresh cream stir it and take it off flame. Add half of the pistachio and almond slivers, cardamom powder and stir well.   Chill it for few hours.  

Serve  this cold in kullad pots (terracotta clay pots) garnished with pistachio and almond slivers.

Enjoy!!!
