Baked Mushroom Manchurian
About:
In this recipe mushrooms are coated in a batter baked and then sauted in a sweet and tangy sauce. Usually they are deep fried but I opted to bake them. They turned out beautifully with nice crunchy outer crust and soft inside.
I retained this as a dry version as I was serving this as a starter with fried rice. However it can also be made to gravy /semi-gravy version by adding some stock/liquid in the sauce.
This can be served as a starter in 3 course Chinese meal plans. Main dish – Fried rice (link) and dessert Beet Muesli cake (link).
Serves: 2
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Baking time: 15-20 minutes

Malai Kofta – Baked potato curry (Cream free) – Vegan
About:
Malai kofta is a vegetarian dumpling soaked in gravy to serve as a side dish. This version is with soft potato balls baked instead of deep fried and the gravy is neither bland nor spicy combining of tomato-onion puree and almond-cashew paste for the creamy texture of the gravy .however cream can be included.
Used almonds in more quantity and reduced cashew as almonds are less in fat compared to cashew, I included the skin of the almonds as it add nutrition to the dish so it can be blanched if required.
Kofta curry is best served with tandoori naan, kulchas, jeer rice or even tastes good with plain steamed rice.
Yields: 3-4s ervings
