Strawberry Jam Turnovers/Jam Filled Turnover





Entering the 61th edition of Blogging Marathon with Baked Snacks.I was thinking of doing some cookies for the theme.But my son came up with the idea of turnover which he had it in one of his friend's place.This turnover has been in my to do list since long time.So made it with the strawberry jam,as I wanted to make it simple.Puff pastry sheets can be used to make,but here I made the outer crust.The method of making outer crust is so simple and takes just 30 minutes,it came out so flaky and crispy.So try it with the homemade crust and also the edges needs to be sealed properly to avoid the jam not to ooze out.Couple of turnovers were not sealed properly and some of the jam came out,so make sure you sealed the edges.Lets move on to the recipe.....................

Rava Kozhukattai/Rava Pidi kozhukattai

For the alphabet R,I decided to make something with rava aka semolina.But I have blogged most of the  rava recipes  in Tamil cuisine. When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention. The method of making this kozhukattai is same as  upma kozhukattai ,whereas rava/semolina is used instead of rice.Both sweet and savory versions can be made with semolina.As we had lot of sweet dishes in the previous week I made the savory version.Soon share the sweet version.This is a great option for evening snack and I served with coconut chutney.Lets move on to the  recipe............                                                                                          ...

For the 5th day under instant dosa varieties in Cooking Carnival is a protein rich dosa with moong dhal. This dosa can be called as vegetarian omlette as the taste resembles egg omlette.This dosa can be spread into a thin crepe or like uthappam/pancake.Either way it tastes good. The dhal gets soaked in less than an hour,once the batter is ready the dosa can be made.Grated veggies or some greens can be added to make it more healthy. Today I used,chopped onion and coriander leaves.Spicy tomato chutney or coriander chutney pairs very well with this dosa.Lets move on to the recipe............                                                                                                    ...
