Banana Muffins are very popular recipe.But here,we are trying a variation to the recipe,making it healthier and egg less too.

Banana Muffins are muffin version of banana bread.Muffins ,as you all know,are  a quick bread of American Origin.
Here ,I have mixed all purpose flour with some whole wheat flour ,to make it healthier.

Banana muffins can be a great after school snack or a good breakfast item for kids.These are healthy as it contains eggs,butter,banana & wheat flour.
Muffin with Red Raspberry Spread

What We Need to make Banana Chocolate Muffins:

Preheat the oven to 180 degree Celsius. 

Dry Ingredients

All purpose flour - 150 g
Whole wheat flour (whole meal/flax seed powder)- 100 g
Sugar- 4 tbsp
Baking Powder- 1 tsp
Baking soda- 1/4 tsp
Salt- 1/4 tsp
chopped nuts- 100 g
Mix all dry ingredients with a wire whisk.


Wet Ingredients

These are Eggless Muffins ,so,I used ,2 tbsp Condensed Milk instead.
Vanilla essence- 1 tsp
Banana- 1 big
Butter - 100 g
Chocolate melted- 2 tbsp
Whisk all wet ingredients in a separate bowl.


Combine wet ingredients into dry ingredients well. Don not over stir.Batter should be very thick.
(It should be thick,sticky batter,unlike cake batter).Add 1-2 tsp milk if the batter is too thick to scoop out.
Add blueberries or chocolate chips according to your choice.

Isn't this egg less muffin recipe so simple? And the results are awesome if you follow the mesurements.

Scoop the batter into muffin cups and bake for 20-25 minutes at 180 degress. (Until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffin comes out clean)


We can store this for 3-4 days. Soon ,out of oven , the top of muffins will be crispy,but as you store them,it becomes soft and nice.

Serve it with a topping if you prefer,since we have adjusted the sweetness to minimum.That's why muffins are quick bread,not cup cakes.So here is my delicious muffin with a topping of my choice.
delicious muffins


ENJOY..!!

noodle recipe chop suey

Classic American chop suey consists of elbow macaroni and bits of cooked ground beef with sautéed onion and green pepper in a thick tomato-based sauce.Though this decidedly American comfort food is clearly influenced by Italian-American cuisine, it is known as a chop suey because it is a combo meal with meat and vegetables.
 But my recipe is Chinese-American Chop Suey with only vegetables and Noodles instead of Pasta.
You can add chicken or meat and chicken stock instead of vegetable stock.
(Chop suey has become a prominent part of American Chinese cuisine, Filipino cuisine, Canadian Chinese cuisine, Indian Chinese cuisine, and Polynesian cuisine. In Indonesian Chinese cuisine it is known as Cap cai)
This recipe consists of simple 3 step process.
Step1
Cook the noodles with salt.
Heat oil in a frying pan and deep fry this cooked noodles.
Noodle should be added little by little and in a way that after frying it should resemble a bird’s nest.
Step2.
This step is making the Chop suey sauce with all the veggies and chicken if you are using.
Ingredients
1. Ginger-1tsp finely chopped
2. Garlic-1tsp finely chopped
3. Onion-1 medium sized
4. Carrot-1 no
5. Bell Pepper-1 no
6. Spring Onion /celery- 2 tbsp
7. Cabbage-4 tbsp
8. Veg stock/water-2tbsp
9. Salt & Pepper
Sugar-1tsp
10. Tomato sauce-bountiful
 & Worchester sauce-1tsp
Method of preparation
In a wok, add in 1tbsp oil.
Add in chopped ginger, garlic, onion and spring onion and sauté well.
Now add all the veggies (you can add your selection of veggies), just sauté in high flame.
Add 1 tsp sugar.
Add generous amount of Tomato sauce and just 1 tsp Worchester sauce.
Add in salt, pepper and stock.
Cook until al-dente.
Step3
In another pan add 1 tsp oil and fry 1 egg .This is served as a topping to the chop suey.
