This is a tasty snack made from whole wheat flour. It is healthy, because I have only baked instead of deep frying . I have not used butter in this recipe.

You will need :
Whole Wheat Flour (WWF)- 1 cup
Milk - 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp
Carom Seeds (Omam) - 1 tsp
Salt - as per taste for a cup of WWF
Turmeric - 1/4 tsp
Chilli Powder - 1 tsp
Oil - 2 tbsp

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and mix well.
Now add the 1/2 cup of milk and make a dough. If needed add the 2 tbsp of milk.
Now apply oil all over and set aside for 1/2 hour.



Make equal large balls out of the dough and roll each one into a flat chapathi.



Use any shape of cookie cutter and cut .

  

Arrange these in a row in the foil - lined baking tray.


Bake for 7 minutes on one side and then turn them over and bake for another 3 minutes.

 


Hmm......... Yummy for kids and perfect with Tea for adults .

Significance of Pillayar Nonbu

Pillayar nombu is a nombu celebrated exclusively by Naattukkottai Nagarathars. This post is intended for young chettiar couples living far from their families, who want to know about this nonbu and celebrate it at home. The significance of performing this nombu, is that we pray to Lord Ganesha, requesting him to remove all the obstacles in our life.  I have heard that there are 3 versions of the story behind this nonbu.

So she started saying her prayers to Lord Ganesha, by removing one thread a day from her cotton saree for 21 days. She promised to the God that, when she proves her innocence, she will make the number of threads she has on that day as

Whole Wheat Bread Without Yeast

My Recipe for today is Whole Wheat Bread without yeast / Pain sans levure  !  When I ordered my groceries this time, bread was not available at the store.  So, I thought of baking bread with the ingredients I had at home.  This is the first time ever I am trying baking a small loaf of bread and I did not have a loaf pan either. So, I have used a square container which measures 4 cups. If you have a loaf pan, please use that, but the measurements i have given below will not be enough to make the size of a store bought loaf and the baked loaf will be upto 3/4th of the loaf pan.  You will need the following ingredients that will be easily available at home. Wheat flour - 2 cups, leveled ( I used the normal wheat flour, that I use to make chapathi at home) Baking Soda - 1/4 tsp Baking Powder - 1/2 tsp Whole Milk - 6 tbsp + 2 tbsp + a little for brushing at the end Water - 6 tbsp Sugar - 1 tbsp ( I did not use powdered sugar) Yogurt - 1/4 cup, nicely beaten (I used homemade thick and creamy

Pillayar Nombu ellai maavu

Pillayar Nombu is celebrated in honour of God Pillayar  (Ganesha) by the Chettiars  on the 21st day after the Thirukkaarthigai Deepam, when Sashti Thithi and Sadayam (also called Shatabhisha) Nakshathra come on the same day. In US, it comes on Dec 26th, 2014. To make the ellai maavu , you will need Raw Rice - 1 cup Jaggery grated - 1/2 cup To prepare the rice flour, first soak the rice in water for 2 to 3 hours. Then drain the water and spread it on a paper towel or white cloth and let it dry for 20 minutes. Now, the when the rice is still wet, grind it in a mixie , into a powder. Sieve it and collect the coarse powder and grind it again and seive it. Repeat this until very less coarse powder is left.                                     In a pan, put the jaggery and add 2 tbsp of water and heat it until the jaggery dissolves completely. Now, sieve it in a tea strainer and collect the jaggery syrup. It should neither be too thick nor too thin.
