Mango salsa is versatile and makes a perfect appetizer, side dish or condiment for get-togethers. We just pick a pack of corn chips from the supermarket and carry this homemade mango salsa for a picnic in the park. If the mango is not in season, I make it with any available fruits and we all love it. This recipe is quick and easy to make, and always so fresh and delicious. We are almost at the end of mango season here in Australia, so thought of sharing this recipe before the season ends. Do check out my other mango recipes in the below links:

Lotus Biscoff Pudding Recipe | Lotus Biscoff Biscuit & Cream Pudding | Biscoff Pudding | Biscuit Pudding
Biscoff is one of my favourite biscuits and I always grab a pack whenever I see it in Coles and Woolworths. Also, I always have a jar of biscoff spread in my pantry to have with bread. During the lockdown in 2020, most of the supermarket's baking section was almost empty. People were going crazy to find a pack of yeast, flour, baking powder etc. Along with that one of the fast moving product was this lotus biscoff and I couldn't find a single pack for more than 3 to 4 months. I was wondering about the reason for the non availability and later figured out through an article in Daily Mail Australia, that a Sydney based blogger Walla had created a viral recipe using this and people were emptying the shelfs to try it. I too wanted to give it a try since then.
Finally, I could grab a few packs towards the end of last year and I tried it. It was so delicious and we started having it whenever we crave for ice creams. I was planning to post it during Christmas but I was not satisfied with the pictures I took. On valentines day this year, I made it again and clicked it. This is a very easy recipe and we do not need to follow the exact measurements. Just layering the biscuit, cream and spread will give you a fabulous dessert.
If you could not find Lotus Biscoff in your part of the world, you can make this with any available biscuit spread and biscuits. The lotus biscoff gives you caramelised taste and any biscuit with similar flavour will work best for this recipe. You could make chocolate flavoured pudding with any chocolate biscuit and Nutella spread.

Ragi Malt Recipe | Ragi Sweet Porridge | Ragi Kanji
Ragi is very nutritious, it is rich in iron and calcium. When I was in Chennai, I always have homemade ragi flour in stock. I used to give ragi porridge sweetened with karupatti for Happy until she was 3 years old. However, after we move to Sydney I stopped making it since I couldn't source the ragi flour. Recently, I bought a pack of ragi flour from an Indian store and we are having this ragi malt as our breakfast once in a while. It can be made in a jiffy and it is a very filling breakfast when we prepare it with milk and almond powder.
I also grabbed a pack of the whole ragi for making homemade ragi flour and I will be sharing the process soon. Please have a look at the other ragi recipes from the blog in the below links:

Pressure Cooker Prawn Biryani Recipe | Prawn Biryani | Shrimp Biryani
I make pressure cooker biryani very often and in my opinion, it is one of the easy to make one pot dish. Though I have already shared layered prawn biryani, and prawn fried rice, I always wanted to share this easy one pot biryani recipe here. In this recipe, I have used coconut milk since it goes very well with the prawn and it makes the biryani rich. However, you can always replace it with water if you don't prefer coconut milk.

Idli using Idli Rava Recipe | Soft Idli using Idli Rava in Mixie | South Indian Soft Idli
All my new year's resolutions were usually forgotten in a day or two. However, to keep up one of my resolutions, I have worked really hard this month and managed to share 8 new recipes here. Idli is a very common breakfast in our home and I have already shared my Idli Dosa batter here. Making Idli using Idli Rava was very new to me and I came to know about this from my colleague Rama when I was with TCS. She is from Andra Pradesh and at her home, they always do it this way. I asked her the recipe and tried it for the first time when I was in Chennai. Since then I have wanted to share the recipe here and it is happening now.

Coffee Walnut Cake Recipe | Coffee Cake with whipped cream frosting | Coffee Whipped Cream Cake
I was planning to share some new cake recipes during Christmas 2020. However, I was completely occupied with the Christmas traditional snack preparations and school holidays. Finally, I am sharing one of my recent favourite cakes that received lots of appreciation from my friends who are neighbours. I made this as a 2 layer cake for Jany's birthday last year and we all loved it. However, I was not satisfied with the images that I clicked on that day. Recently I made it again, mainly for the blog post and I am satisfied with the end result. I have shared the step by step video of this recipe without the icing in my Instagram handle and saved it under the highlight "Coffee Cake". Do check it out if you are interested. Also, for more interesting cake recipes, please visit my Christmas Special page.
