I wanted to make this easy coffee mug cake a long time ago. Recently Priya has posted the recipe for this cake. I just followed the same recipe and made this cake yesterday for my girls. The quantity she has mentioned was enough for both my little ones. I made it in two little mugs and they finished it pretty fast along with a dallop of ice cream on top it.
Here is the recipe:
All Purpose Flour - 4 tbsp
Oil - 3tbsp
Egg - 1
Nutella Hazelnut spread - 2 tbsp
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
Sugar - 2 tbsp ( 4 tbsp in original recipe)
Milk - 4 tbsp
Mix everything in a bowl, without any lumps. Fill Half of the coffee mug with the batter and Microwave it for 1 or 1 1/2 minutes in high temperature.
Well most of my blogging friends know that this recipe is from Madhuri's Cook - Curry Nook. I followed almost the same recipe except for few changes.. Here goes my recipe.
Ingredients:-
All Purpose Flour - 3/4 cup
Cocoa Powder - 1/4 cup
Oil - 1/4 cup
Baking powder - 1/2 tsp
Baking Soda - 1/4 tsp
Salt a pinch
Honey - 1/4 cup
Dates syrup - 1/4 cup ( I used Lion Dates syrup)
Flax Seed Powder - 2 tsp (Mix it with 1/2 cup warm water & keep it aside)
Warm water - little less than 1/4 cup
Chopped walnuts - 2 tsp (optional)
Mix all the dry ingredients APF, Cocoa, Baking powder, Baking soda, salt together. Add flax seed powder mix, honey, dates syrup and mix it well. If necessary add little bit of water. The original recipe is for cupcakes, Since i dont have microwaveable cups, I just used the pie tray and made cake. Pour the ingredients and microwave at high 900 W for 3 minutes. Cooking time differs from MW to MW. Original recipe finishes by one minute. But mine took 3 minutes to cook. Let it cool for few minutes & Enjoy!!
I replaced brown sugar with honey & dates syrup. So I had to use little bit of warm water than the original recipe. Also i did not add vanilla essence. Adding chopped walnuts is not there in the original recipe.
I made this payasam for my father-in-law's 27th day ceremony. Since Srivalli's MEC Potluck Party is going on, thought of making it in microwave. This is the first time, I am making a payasam in microwave. There are few reasons I pick stove top instead of microwave for making payasam. One is laziness, you have to be very cautious when u r planning to cook (especially with milk) in microwave and other is I have the habit of forgetting. I always prepare my tea in microwave and forget to take it out. Today I was literally sitting in the kitchen to finish this payasam and since the quantity was less, it took just 10 mts to finish it. I have used the microwave safe Pyrex vessel for making this payasam. Please make sure you use a microwave safe vessel for cooking in the Microwave....
Ingredients:-
Ripe Mango - 3/4th cup (chopped)
Almonds -5
Cashews -5
Milk - 2 1/2 cup
Sugar - 3 tbsp
Edible Camphor - a pinch
nuts
half cooked mango in milk
Mango & Nuts Mix with Milk
Mango Nuts Payasam
First cook the almonds and cashews with 1/4 cup of water for 2 minutes. Let it cool. Peel the skin off from the almonds and grind both into a fine paste. Keep the paste in the same mixie jar. In the mean time, put the mango 1/4 cup of milk in a vessel and microwave it for one minute. Let it cool. Now put the mango chunks along with the grounded nuts and grind it. Now transfer it to the same vessel where the milk is. Microwave it for one minute. Stir it in between. Now add 2 cups of milk and microwave it for another 2 minutes (since the qty was less, it just took 2 mts for the raw smell of mango and nuts to go). Take it out and stir it nicely. Add the sugar, edible camphor and the remaining milk and microwave it for another one minute. Your payasam is ready to serve hot. Since i have used nuts in it, I did not garnish it at the end and no ghee is used. As I said earlier, this payasam goes to Srivalli's MEC Potluck Party event
