Healthy Sprouts salad

   Diwali is over and many are finding way to de-tox.  So am I here posting an healthy salad that you can munch at noon, evening snack or along with dinner, as an accompaniment.  This salad is made with sprouts which additionally supports the motive.  I, have topped them with few walnuts too!  Best part is with least additional time, with very few spices they go great on taste too!


 
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Serves: 2

 

Ingredients required:

  • 1 cup mixed sprouts, steam-cooked for five minutes
  • 2 tbspn finely chopped onion
  • 2 tbspn finely chopped tomatos (de-seeded)
  • 1 tbspn finely chopped coriander leaves
  • 2 whole shelled walnuts (which is later de-shelled and broken into tiny pieces)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper powder

Method

Mix all and serve.  Make sure you don't add more walnuts, because adding more will cause an bitter taste to salad. If you prefer to do so, then deskin them and add.  Also walnuts are best preferred, because almonds gives an 'too much crunchy effect' to salad. 
 

 
Happy cooking!!!

Braided walnut & raisin bun


      My honourable third task from Baking partner group.  This bread preparation is done using Tangzhong method, where a flour paste is added to regular bread preparation at 65 degree celsius to obtain soft and spongy consistency.  This flour paste has been fascinated by chinese because of their successful fluffy bread making that stays soft for so many days



REASON BEHIND TANGZHONG SUCCESS
At 65 degree celsius, gluten in flour and water mixture would absorb moisture and become less leavened. Hence when this produced tangzhong product is added along with other bread ingredients, bread will be softened.
