Almost a crusade...
WE, the Knights Templar of hindu origin...may I add...
Fighting all temptations...of food, only for 7 days ...twice a year-fortunately...
NO grain,NO meat and NO eggs!
Difficult...even fruit juice has to be had without any tadka...
So we create....something that is tempting but flour less and fat less...but full on with the flavour...
Face it any thing FAT LESS
Guarantees a second glance...
Those little discs are made of potatoes...mashed potatoes.
so lets get down to it...that was my breakfast ,lunch and leftovers will be my dinner!
for the
Potato Diskettes with Walnut Chutney....
you need
1/2 kg yogurt
1 tsp honey
few basil leaves
couple of chopped walnuts
2 green chillies finely chopped
4 medium boiled potatoes
1/2 cup warm milk
salt,pepper to taste.
Start with the yogurt....take it to the gallows......Pour the yogurt into a cheesecloth.....muslin cloth
Now bring the ends together and clip them up.Hang this like so...No, you do not need the executioner...
now attack the boiled potatoes...
Peel the potatoes....and begin to mash them...
Add the milk and season...a thick pipe- able consistency is needed.
lay out a sheet of AL foil and lightly grease it.now fill a piping bag with the mashed potatoes...if you couldn't be bothered with all that fancy-schmancy stuff , just use a spoon and drop small portions onto the foil.
And /or pipe.But before you start ,set your oven to its highest setting and turn on...
After the delicate rounds ,I lost patience and changed the nozzle...so I also had a sheet of...
I also sprinkled some sesame seeds....
and put these to bake....my settings are 230C...9 minutes....and they had to be pulled out.
Most important...peel them off the Al foil while they are warm...or you'll need to add aluminium to your diet.
While the potatoes are baking ,do your chutney.
That's the hung curd...all cheesy ...in the cheesecloth...
Now in a bowl..
To which I added the walnuts,basil,green chili,honey,salt and pepper and mixed well.
Now the plating!
pretty plate....
the diskettes...
and the chutney...
And then your mouth is its FINAL DESTINATION....
Don't worry.It knew its fate......
At least now you have an option...you don't have to eat only fried stuff this navratra...
you can try these....
So what are you baking today???
