Well, now I got hold of a friend from India and she gave me the recipe.
I tried and it turned out well.
No harm trying once for curiosity.
Hmm, you have to trust your friend, that her mom made it:smile::smile:
I will post it soon for you. Kugan

Glad you liked all the dishes
Keep cooking and posting, Thanks and take care, Kugan

125 grms of melted and cooled butter
400 grms of condensed milk
225 grms all purpose flour
4 tbs cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
All sifted together
200ml coco cola
Method:
Preheat the oven to 160 degrees C
Grease an 8 inch baking pan, keep aside.
In a bowl use a beater and beat the melted butter and the condensed milk.
Beat well till you get a gooey mixture.
Now add the shifted flour little by little, alternating with the coco cola.
Pour into the greased baking tin, and bake for about 30 to 40 minutes,
Or till a cake tester inserted comes out clean.
Remove and let it cool on a wire rack.

Madhu anneh, I am no scientist, but I follow recipes with little alterations.
Well if they say melted cooled butter, I will melt the butter and let it come to room temperature.
It will be still oil on top and little sediments in the bottom.
COLD aannal, it will become mushy. This is what I know.
Please ennai vambil maati vudaatheengga.:confused2::confused2

My dear friends, this is little story time.

Well I heard that the children love pizza, McDonalds and things.
So I made them 3 trays of pizza.

My eldest nephew who is 15 years old gave me a type of look.
The mother smiled and said he is trying to say that he too can bake.
I was surprised , he said he will do dinner rolls for me. The rolls were a bit hard, but good job.
Here he is making the dinner rolls and the end product.
Not bad for an 15 year old to do that ( my house they only know how to eat.

Kuganka the stuffed capsicum came out great.It was something new for the family.
You are really great, thanks for the explanation for melted butter, that too with pictures.
Your little story was very nice. Good your nephew from UK can bake.
We too have to teach our children to do little cooking.
By the way your pizza and dinner rolls were fantastic.
Super soft to see. I am sure you are cooking more dishes for your guests.
Please post pictures for us to see. Rose
can i get some rolls. foruma thirandela pasi varudu. yummy pics. samathu payan.
thanks mandhu anna and k for the encouragement. :-D i am so happy.
the problem is i cook slowly and by the time i finish the menu we r so hungry and eat them right away and forget to click. or if sometimes i do click i am so ashamed of it and delete them.
K those r mobile pics only. will slowly start uploading more.
K made ur spinach with moong dal (neice friends mom) nice also ur spicy brinjal curry. both turned out so good. ana sodanai made it morning itslef but unexpected situation so had to run here and there had them only at 6 in the evening. cud not take pics.
Kuganka, I think cooking runs in your family.
I made your baby corn manchurian, turned out great every one enjoyed it.
Your pizza and dinner rolls look so professional .
When you have the time please post the dinner rolls recipe.
Kuganji..
I think I can take some training on my visit to KL. ( In my house still "theendamai" is in practice and gents are not allowed inside the kitchen to do any work :( )
anyhow... while working we can consume some tasty raw materials and also some lovely items during work in process :slurp:
Whether we get final recipe or not... the experience will be WONDERFUL !
Thanks NOV anneh for your post.Quote:

Brinjal is my favourite vegetable. You can cook so many types of dishes with it.
It is o.k, not every time we have the chance to take snaps.
Take clicks when you are at ease.
Take care, Kugan

At 18 they have to leave home to stay in the hostel for studies.
What will they do if they do not know any basic things.
So you see only in Malaysia, we still do every thing for our children.
We too have to change.
Your recipe for dinner rolls will come soon. Kugan

Well when you make panner curry you need not fry the panner in gram flour batter.
That is only for manchurians, or chillie panner.
You can just shallow fry the panner, and add to your curry.
Sorry again P.S Tamby. Kugan
No problem , thank you. I will try the batter :)Quote:
