Kale Apple & Walnut Salad with Honey Dressing#Foodieextravaganza

This delicious salad is dressed with a tasty sweet honey vinaigrette. Cubes of feta cheese and raisins laced throughout add sweet and tangy flavor. This is a healthy salad low in sodium and gluten-free. This salad with our honey dressing is just perfect for clean eating, it’s very filling, light, healthy, fiber rich and gluten free. That’s the beauty of homemade salad recipes .

Pick up the leaves gently between your thumbs and fingers.
Gently massage the kale between your fingers until you feel the leaf start to soften.
Massage the leaves until you like the softened texture. DON’T over do it. Or your salad will be unpalatable and mushy. 

Ingredients
5 Cups Chopped Kale
2 Cups Chopped Butter Head Lettuce
1 Large Apple - thinly sliced
¼ Cup Raisins
½ Cup Toasted Walnut - roughly chopped
1oo Grams Feta Cheese - diced
For The Dressing
3 Tablespoons Honey
3 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1½ Tablespoons Apple Cider Vinegar
1/8 Teaspoon Pink Himalayan Salt
1/8 Teaspoon Freshly Ground Black pepper 

Method 

Pull the leafy part off the kale ribs. The ribs are tough and very chewy. Rip them off!
Before you begin making your salad, massage the kale with little salt and oil to make them softer.
Place the kale and butter head lettuce leaves in the bottom of a bowl followed by the rest of the ingredients.
Whisk together the dressing ingredients and pour them over the top of the salad. 

Refrigerate before serving. Enjoy! Very tasty salad and so easy to make.

My Notes
If you prefer to have a softer leaf in your salad you may massage the kale. This is done after you remove the leaf off the ribs of the kale. The process takes about 3 minutes.
Put the kale leaf in a bowl with a bit of oil and a pinch of salt.
Now dig in with your hands. Pick up the leaves gently between your thumbs and fingers.
Gently massage the kale between your finger until you feel the leaf start to soften.
Your kale is massaged as much as you want to continue this process.

Sourdough Banana Appe#SundayFunday

This is a sumptuous breakfast which is eggless & vegan will serve 3 to 4 persons and it goes well with a cup of tea, coffee or as a snack.  In the South these are call paniyaram or unniyappam and in Maharashtra we all it appe. In the other countires it's called aebleskiver. Traditional snack made with sourdough starter, jaggery, semolina and banana with touch of cardamom.

I used 100% sourdough starter which is made with 50: 50 ratios of all-purpose flour and whole wheat flour, you can use any flour starter.
I fed the starter at 4.30pm by 7.30 pm it was active. Add the semolina, jaggery and cardamon powder to the starter and extra ¼ cup water Kept it again at room temperature for 30 minutes then refrigerate it . Next morning added the mashed the banana and baking soda, added another ¼ cup water mix it well since this batter slightly thinner than a pancake batter. Poured this in a soft squeeze bottle or a piping bag, since it is less messy and you can control the amount the batter required in to each hole.

Make sure to cook to only golden-brown color as it tends to cook while it cools down.

To reduce the amount of batter sticking on to the ‘pan’, let the pan heat up a bit before adding the oil. Let the Oil heat again before adding the batter.

Ingredients 
220g Sourdough Starter
¾ Cup Jaggery
¾ Cup Semolina Rava
1 Banana - mashed
¼ Teaspoon Cardamom powder
¼ Cup+ ¼ Cup Water
1/8 Teaspoon Baking soda
Oil/ Clarified Butter - as required for frying
¼ Cup Freshly Grated Coconut - optional

Method

Melt Jaggery with ¼ cup of water and sieve with a strainer, to remove impurities if any are present.
In a bowl mash the banana into a puree with a masher and set aside.
In a large bowl add active starter, melted and strained jaggery, semolina flour, baking soda, cardamom powder and extra ¼ cup water, mix it well to make a thick pancake batter. Kept it again at room temperature for 30 minutes then refrigerate it . Next morning added the mashed the banana and baking soda, added another ¼ cup water mix it well since this batter slightly thinner than a pancake batter. Poured this in a soft squeeze bottle or a piping bag, since it is less messy and you can control the amount the batter required in to each hole.Keep it aside for 30 minutes.

Heat oil in appe pan add batter to the mold/each hole. Cover with a lid and let it cook till the bottom side is golden.

As soon as one side ready, turn and cook the other side also . Remove it from the appe pan when a skewer comes out clean. You can also use a spoon to transfer them. 

Transfer to kitchen towel to remove excess of oil. Repeat the process until the entire batter is finished. 

Enjoy!!
