The process how to make ricotta cheese is explained below in my recipe . You can also use khoya for this recipe to save time. Just make sure that the process is constantly attended, otherwise pedas will get burnt smell if the mixture sticks to the bottom of the pan. Of course it is time consuming thing to prepare any kind of pedas at home from scratch, but the final outcome is just fabulous. So let us see how to make Dharwad Peda from scratch.

Most of the people love the taste of Okra or lady finger vegetable, because of it’s texture and slimy nature.

There are n number of Okra recipes available but I prefer Indian Okra recipes, can be pan fried okra,bhindi chili, okra curry , or bhindi masala . My son loves bhindi (Okra) and can eat it in any form. Today, since it is a vegetarian day, I prepared this tangy Indian Okra in yogurt sauce which is quite easy and tasty.

by PoojanadkarniHomemade Bread - Dinner Rolls
These pav are famous in Goa where I grew up. Pav means a small loaf of bread and got it’s name from pão – a portuguese word for bread. I remember when we used to get nice hot freshly baked paav with great aroma coming out. Never had chance to experience once we moved to Mumbai. Then later here in USA , I totally missed those rolls. Of course here you get different variety of freshly baked bread but I miss the taste of pure Goan bread. I sincerely tried these dinner rolls recipe and believe me , the taste came exactly the same as Goan pav and they are the best for any kind of gravy items like pav bhaji, misal pav or even the chicken curry.

by PoojanadkarniHoney Glazed Easy Chicken Wings(Baked)
Whenever you want some quick appetizers, go for Chicken wings. But the problem is, most of the chicken wings are deep fried and if you are health conscious, then obviously it is not an option. So go for baked or grilled ones. They taste equally delicious and very easy to cook and also you can eat how many you want without any guilt. Also, if you are more health conscious, try to remove skin from the wings or use boneless skinless chicken pieces instead of wings for this recipe. These wings are great especially , if you have a large crowd, prepare your marinade in advance. You can even prepare it 3-4 days in advance, refrigerate and then just warm it up whenever required. But let me warn you !! Make extras, because , I am pretty sure, the moment you take them out of the oven, they will disappear. My own personnel experience. For marinade, you can also use ginger if you like the taste of it,but I skipped it. You can also go for Teriyaki Chicken Wings or Lemon Pepper chicken Wings if you like. But I personally like my wings to be hot with some sweetness too. So I used hot sauce , along with honey.

Potato wedges are a variation of french fries. As their name suggests, they are wedges of potatoes, often large and unpeeled, that are sprinkled with salt and herbs and either baked or fried and sold at diners and fast food restaurants. I have tried the variation by adding Goan Recheado masala. Recheado or Rechad masala is a famous Goan(Indian) red masala used specially for stuffing mackerel fish what we call Bangdo in Goa. You can use any kind of masala or herbs for applying to the wedges. So let’s start with homemade baked potato wedges.

While serving, crispy fried chicken is coated with this sauce and topped with sesame seeds which are either toasted or untoasted. It is then served with vegetables like broccoli and Chinese baby corn. In my recipe, I have done the exact same process but instead of deep frying the chicken pieces, I have baked them. Only remember to use low sodium soy sauce , otherwise it will make your dish salty. If you can’t find low sodium one, then decrease the quantity of soy sauce and increase the quantity of water.

by Poojanadkarnihttp-poojascookery.com-spicy-baked-chick
If you want to prepare something for appetizer , which is also oil free, why not try out these spicy baked chicken drumsticks. They are very easy to prepare, oven baked with garlicky flavor. To prepare this , first of all you have to marinade the drumsticks well, to get the flavor absorbed in well. So it is always better to keep the pieces marinated the previous day and then just bake the next day. But if you are in a hurry, then at least make sure you marinade them for 1 hour. You can also deep fry these drumsticks if not health conscious, but they taste equally good , baked. Also you can modify the spices according to your taste buds. I like it with more garlic.
