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).

Honey custard tarts (Eggless)
About:
Individual custard tarts served with fresh fruit / concoction are the essence of simplicity after a rich meal. Light and delicate yet flavourful these tarts make a lovely presentation. Mini tarts are the pretty and delicious with fresh fruit layered on top of a cool, creamy, custard cream all encased in one.
Enjoy these little fluffy beauties which are eggless too..
