Black Forest Tomato Bundt Cake #BundtBakers

It feels good to know, your friends are waiting for your posts. They keep on checking, and one fine day they will ask you, what happened why you are not posting these days... I was looking for your recent work...

Well, well.. Here, I am.. Posting again with my Bundt Bakers group...  This Bundt, was created for necessity, but now became my favorite... Couple of things to note is... One you can never taste the tomato in the cake, because of overpowering taste of Cocoa. And 2nd, kid will never get to know, that their are something healthy hidden inside...



It becomes a everyday struggle, when kids start picking veggies from their food. Mine hates tomatoes... If it is blended well in the curry, then that's fine.. otherwise she will pick those mini pieces from her food... I still don't understand, how she is able to see those mini pieces.. As a mom, we all try to give our kids enough nutrition.. sometimes, it works out, and sometimes we need to work harder, to give those little munchkins extra nutrition from their daily meals.

Yum, I love the sprinkle of almonds that will be on the bottom of the cake. I have made a tomato soup cake before and nobody was the wiser.

I had a tomato cake recently, and it was great. I bet this chocolate version is even that much better.

Cooking is an art... And presenting your food is another art... Well, I believe if food in front of you doesn't look appetizing to you, then you are not going to enjoy the food... So,most of the time, I try to present the meal beautifully, which attracts the family itself to the dinner table... Every month, I bake with Bread Bakers... Every time, I try to come out of my comfort zone, and try to bake something which is new to me... This month's theme is Yeast Flat breads... Being Indian, I always make Flat Breads, as it is our staple food..... So, I decided to bake something about which I have never heard off... And google landed me to this Italian Flat bread " Focaccia". It is the best bread I ever had... So, full of flavors, and delicious... I got this recipe from All Recipes .com .... But, altered it according to my taste... #BreadBakers is a group of bread loving bakers who get together once a month to bake bread with a common ingredient or theme....

Baked Peas Kachori #Breadbakers

Image
I have very beautiful memories from my Childhood for all traditional foods... Peas used to be a seasonal vegetable when we were growing up... It wasn't like today, that frozen peas was so easily available throughout the year... Peas starts coming in the farmer's market, by the end of November.... But, it use to be very costly, and by the mid of December, the peas were abundantly available in all the Veggie's market.... We were staying in the rural area, and my mom used to buy Peas with cover in a bulk... Me and my sister, use to help her in peeling those Peas, and then she makes small portion packets, and freeze it.. So, that we can enjoy Peas even in summer.  So, these Kachori's became our weekend breakfast in Wintery months... I tried to make it as good as my mom, but then her cooking has a special touch of love, which makes the food much more tastier.... You can fry these Kachori's as well as bake them...  She use to make both of them, as my dad was...
