GOING BANANAS - Baalekai Bhakri - Raw Banana Flatbread

GOING BANANAS !

BAALEKAI BHAKRI

 I decided to 'pat' ragi rottis after cooking all the side dishes first, so that everyone could enjoy them hot and straight from the tava. A baalekai / banana curry was also in my menu plan. As I took out the bananas there was a sudden flash! ' Why not rottis out of bananas instead of ragi? ' 

 After all, the banana deluge - an aftermath of our visit to our village - had not yet subsided! 

Here is how I prepared the Baalekai Bhakri which was very much relished by my family.

 INGREDIENTS 

Raw bananas - 4 

Rice flour - 2 tbsps 

Asafoetida - 1 pinch 

Turmeric powder - 1 pinch 

Salt - 1 tsp 

Gingelly oil - 2 tbsps 

Cumin seeds - 1 tsp

Chopped onions - 1/2 cup 

Freshly grated coconut - 1/2 cup 

Chopped green chillies - 1 tbsp 

Freshly grated ginger - 1 tbsp 

Chopped coriander leaves - 2 tbsps 

Oil - for roasting 

METHOD 

1. Cut the raw bananas into two or three pieces. 

2. Cover with water and cook with the peel,till soft.  

3. Peel the cooked bananas and blend in a mixer along with turmeric powder, asafoetida and salt . 

4. Add the rice flour and oil and run the mixer for a few more seconds so that the mixture comes together like a dough. 

5. Take out the blend in a bowl and add the chopped onion, grated coconut, green chillies, ginger, cumin seeds and coriander leaves. 

6. Knead all the ingredients together and leave it covered for a while. 

7. Grease a banana leaf or a butter paper and place a ball of the banana dough on it. 

8. Wet your fingers and pat the sticky dough into a moderately thick and round bhakri. 

9. Invert the leaf on a greased and heated tava and gently peel it off when the bhakri sits on the tava. 

10. Drizzle with oil and gently cook till the bhakri is done.  

 

11. Flip it on the other side and cook on medium flame.

12. Pour one more spoon of oil around the edges and cook  till the bhakri gets the golden tiger stripes on both sides. 

Serve the Baalekai Bhakri immediately topped with a blob of fresh butter and your favourite vegetables.

3 Fruit Bread - Mango, Banana and Apple (NO Egg 'n NO Butter)

I came up with this recipe to make a bead recipe where I can use mango as the main ingredient and wanted to post it in Guest Event - "Only Mango". I know I am posting it almost at the end of the event, but few days back made something...but had guests at home without any notice, so had to serve them without taking a picture. :)

So this is a new recipe that I am trying with mango. I made bread so many times, but this time wanted to use more fruits which would be nice if combined with mango. This turned out so good, but to make it more look like a mango based bread, I made a cream cheese topping with mango puree. This was awesome, because Anush never liked mango, but he wanted to try this bread. So I am happy for making it. :) He also helped me out making this bread.

This recipe has no eggs, no butter and I have tried using as much as healthy ingredients like almond meal and whole wheat flour too. So lets go to the recipe now.....

Ingredients:
------------
Dry Ingredients:
-----------------
1/2 cup Almond Meal
3/4 cup Whole Wheat Flour
3/4 cup All Purpose Flour
1 tsp Cinnamon
1/2 tsp Baking Soda
2 tsp Baking Powder
1/2 tsp Kosher Salt

Wet Ingredients:
------------------
1/2 cup Sugar
2/3 cup Brown  Sugar
2 Bananas
1 large Mango, cubed
1/2 cup Unsweetened Apple Sauce
1/4 Vegetable Oil
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 tsp Chocolate Mocha Syrup (unsweetened) (optional)

Mango Cream Cheese Topping:
---------------------------------
1 pkg Whipped Cream Cheese or regular Cream Cheese
1-2 Mango, pureed
1/4 cup Powdered Sugar

Method:
----------
1. Preheat oven to 350F.
2. Coat the bottom of a loaf pan with butter and flour.

3. In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients - APP flour, WW flour, Almond meal (I toasted the almonds, cooled it and then powdered it to make the almond meal, but you can buy almond meal from store), cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder and salt, whisk all together until mixed.
4. Now puree the bananas and mango and add them in a second bowl, combine, regular sugar, brown sugar, apple sauce, oil, vanilla, chocolate mocha syrup and mix all of them once.

5. Now add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix it with a electric mixer just until mixed.
6. Now pour the batter into the loaf pan and bake it for about 60 - 65 mins or until the top of the bread has nice brown crust on it and when a tooth pick inserted should come out clean without sticking. (In this case it will seem as if it's sticky a little, but it will be alright once the bread cools down to room temperature).

Making cream cheese topping:
-------------------------------
1. Mix all the ingredients together and spread it over the bread or over a slice of bread or make a sandwich with two slices of bread with the cream cheese filling in between.
