HOT MILK CAKE


Hi All ,
Though I was planning to post pizza recipe first ,but from yesterday many were asking me about this Hot milk cake recipe , so thought of posting it now and tomorrow I will try to post pizza recipe.
This hot milk cake I made it for my daughter's birthday last year, but last year was crucial, I didn’t get time to either click photos or note down the recipe. I totally forget about the recipe and now when one of my friend asked me about perfect cake recipe for birthday I got reminded about this cake and searched. Luckily I noted the recipe in my old diary and this lockdown tempting me to eat cake so thought of giving a try again.
This is a never fail old fashioned cake recipe which is always a success, all you need to is just follow the recipe and ingredients correctly .

 Here is the yummy , no fail recipe for you,

consistency of final batter
 9)  Grease you baking pan generously with butter and dust it with flour.
 10)              Pour the batter to pan and tap gently to remove air bubbles ( read notes to know more).
Taping the pan
 11)              Pre-heat oven to 170”C , 30 mins and bake for 30 mins or till the tooth pick comes out clean.
 12)              When done remove from oven and let the cake come down to room temperature.
13)              Now gently invert the cake to wire rack and let it rest for 30 mins.
 14)              Then what for you waiting for..just slice and enjoy.
 NOTES :
1)  Don’t be in rush, every step needs its time so do it patiently.
2)  About step 10, tapping is to remove air bubbles, air bubbles causes cake to crack at top during baking . so tapping gently releases air and the cake will be crack free perfect brown at top. If you are using glass tray where tapping is impossible , in that case you can just make swills using knife also releases air bubbles.
3) The bowl which you are adding eggs must be dry, wet bowl will spoil the consistency. 


 Happy cooking!!

KADAMBA / KANAVA MASALA /SQUID FISH CURRY

Hi, Sea has lot of creatures in it that we can cook and we were much more unaware of many . Squid fish is one among the yummy species which I was totally unaware even after coming to Chennai.One day in market I saw them and surprised that they are selling octopus ( it looked like that to me :)). Then I surfed in net and found actually they are squid ( kadamba / kanava) and not octopus , My friend Saranya cooked this gravy for us during her visit to our home .I copied the recipe from her and tried next week itself.Though the squid fish looks very weird the taste was so yummy and there is no fish odor in that.It just tasted like mutton. The cleaning part is little tricky but easy, I suggest once you finished cleaning dispose the waste immediately out of your house as the waste from squid fish is very smelly and also it starts leaving water .So dispose the waste of squid as quick as possible. Other than that the fish tastes heaven , spicy, yummy and very easy to cook. I have
