Dilkush/Sweetened Stuffed Pastry

2015 is going to an end,I wanted to end the Bake-A-Thon series and this year with a sweet note.So tried this simple Dilkush. Dilkush is a popular snack available in most of the bakeries and college canteen in South India.Two varieties are available in the bakery one is with the puff pastry and another one is made with the yeasted bread dough. Already I have shared a version of  Thengai Bun  so tried this one with the puff pastry.Here I made two dilkush,for the first one I rolled the dough slightly thinner,so the output was flaky.Whereas the other is comparatively thicker dough,so it got a nice crust.Off to the recipe........................                                                                                         ...

Rose Shape Stuffed Rolls/Rose Rolls

Today's recipe is a cute looking rose shape dinner roll,stuffed with paneer masala.I wanted to make these rose shaped rolls for  April Mega Marathon .But due to various other reasons I couldn't bake it. My son has been asking a while for some kind of savory stuffed bun,so tried the rose shaped roll stuffed with paneer masala.Here I used wheat flour along with bread flour,the rolls came out very well.The rolls were slightly bigger after the second raise and size of the rolls were as I expected.                                                                                                                                   ...

Palmiers/Elephant Ears/Palmier Cookies

Palmiers or elephant ears are heart shaped pastry with flaky and crispy layers,made using the pastry sheet.Couple of times I bought this one from shop and kids loved it.Its in my to do list since long time,but wanted to try it with homemade puff pastry.But whenever I make puff pastry,ended up in making  veggie puff  or egg puff. Last week I made a batch of puff pastry to make  cream horns .With the leftover pastry I tried the palmiers.It came out so perfect with a crispy outer with caramelized sugar.Off to the recipe...........                                                                                                              Palmiers      ...

Julekake/Julekaga - Norwegian Christmas Bread

Today's recipe is a colorful Christmas bread which is popular in Norway and Denmark.The bread is scented with cardamom,originally green citrus peel is used along with cardamom.But here I used the raisins and tutty frutty.The bread came out so soft and love the texture of the bread.But the tutty frutty,stuffed is not uniformly mixed.So after stuffing it roll the dough smoothly for couple of minutes to get evenly distributed.Icing on the top of the bread can be optional.Off to the recipe........                                                                                                                                     ...
