Ingredients:

For The Cake:
• 250gm self-raising flour.
• 250gm dark chocolate.
• 250gm light brown soft sugar.
• 250gm butter.
• 50gm cocoa.
• 4 eggs.

        The Fillings:
• 150gm pack of Oreo cookies.
• 250gm butter.
• 1-2 tablespoons milk.
• 3-400gm icing sugar.
• Few drops of vanilla extract.

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 150˚C.
  2. Grease and flour 2X20cm sandwich tins.
  3. Mix the flour, cocoa and sugar together and melt the butter and chocolate and 200ml water alternatively over low heat, then beat the mix with the eggs into the dry ingredient.
  4. Pour it into 2 sandwich tins or cases and bake it for a minimum time of 40 minutes roughly until risen well. And the pin or skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean and smooth. Transfer the prepared to wire racks and allow it to cool for sometime.
  5. Alternatively, while the cake is cooling, prepare the buttercream. Beat the butter until well creamy, then add around 300-350gm of icing sugar and vanilla and mix it properly. Note: If you find the mixture a bit dry after it, if so, then add a tablespoon of milk in it. And if the mixture is too wet, add little more icing sugar.
  6. Grind all but one of the Oreo cookies in a food processor. Now take out and reserve half of the cookie crumble and mix the other half into the buttercream.
  7. Now spread the prepared butter icing between the two cakes in the wired racks and over the top of them sprinkle the remaining crumbled cookies. More mini cookies could be added to decorate it as you like!
  8. Rest! You now have the delicious Cake ready and reward yourself for all your hard work.

Crispy braised Iberico pork collar Recipe

Image
It is not cheap, but if you come across it don't hesitate and buy an   Iberico  pork  collar  (aka boneless neck, Cabecero). Mine was 1800 g. It is a well marbled, exquisitely flavorful cut that can be roasted, braised, or sliced into steaks for quick searing. ... While  iberico  is best known for the famous slow-aged hams, the other cuts are succulent, moist & delicious. I made pulled pork from one half. Today I made this from the other half. First I peeled, halved and then sliced 800 g of onions and sweated them in 40 g of butter, turned the heat up a bit and softly fried them for about 40 mins, nicely caramelised and brown. Took out the onions and added some more butter in the pan to sear the meat. Then turned the heat down again and added  sea salt, black pepper, 3 tbsp  Worcestershire  and 6 finely hacked cloves of garlic , 1.2 liter of beef stock , the reserved onions and 2 leaves of laurel . Put the lid on and let it simmer for 3 hours. Then I took out the oni

Pani Puri with Homemade Puris

Image
P ani Puri is one of my favorite chaats from childhood. Whenever we go out, we used to thoroughly enjoy the chaat from the roadside street vendors. In every nook and corner, you can see a pani puri stall. We used to have competition, as who will have more puris. Every Indian like pani puri to the core. It is said that this not only satisfies your taste buds but also keeps the kid in you alive. Once during fasting time, in Bangalore, after breaking the fast I had 30- 35 pani puris without eating anything. I like to have them anytime of the day. After coming to the US it has become very rare to find pani puri. We will get the pani puri kit in all the Indian stores. I started making it from scratch as we don’t find the puris most of the time in stores. My daughter loves it a lot. She won’t eat anything else if pani puri is there for snacks. Pani puris have different names like the puchkas, gol gappas and so on. Pani means water and puri are the fried puffed dough balls. Yesterday was my s
