Hi there...Hope all are enjoying summer time in their part of world & hope everyone had a wonderful Father's day celebration. It was a quiet affair here, me making a simple, easy, quick mango cake for the special and memorable day.

Sharing the cake recipe here for you to try. Just scroll down for the recipe:)

Ingredients:

One big sweet mango -Peeled and chopped

Sugar- 1/2 cup

Semolina- 1 and 1/2 cup

Refined oil- 1/2 cup

Milk- 3/4 cup

Baking powder- 1 and 1/2 teaspoon

Chopped nuts- Few

How to make :

Peel and chop the mango. Make it to pulp along with sugar in the mixer. Grind the semolina to fine powder. Transfer the powdered semolina to the bowl. Add the oil and the mango pulp to the bowl and mix well. Add 1/2 cup milk and stir it well and make into smooth batter. Keep the batter aside for 30 minutes. Take a 6 inch cake tin grease and dust it with flour. After 30 minutes add the baking powder and 1/4 cup milk and stir well. Do not over mix. Spread the batter to the cake tin and tap it evenly. Arrange chopped nuts on top of the batter. Pre heat the oven for 5 minutes. Place the tin in the oven and bake it for 35-40 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius. Let it cool down completely before de- molding. With a knife loosen the side and remove from the cake tin.

Tip: Instead of refined oil butter or melted ghee can be used to the batter. One cup semolina and half cup plain flour could be used.

Shades of Green

This is September, and the month offers its own fresh start to many things. Here in India, it is the beginning of festivities and celebrations for the next few coming weeks. These are the days of showers too, and it is truly refreshing & soothing to see the plants and trees after every brief shower. The moist leaves give us an impression that they are happy and smiling and breathing a 'Thank You' for the fresh green look. I love the colour green and as we all know it is one of Mother Natures primary colours. The green stem is honoured and credited to hold every flower of different colours. That's awesome. Inspiration comes from every where and the colour green inspired me to do a scape, with the green touch. I collected the green ware from the racks and putting it together as a teascape was pleasing to the eyes like the happy greenery around us. Sometimes it is wonderful to have tea and treat ourselves amongst a small collection of green plants. M
