Today' recipe under the savory and miscellaneous baking theme for the mega marathon is vegetable puff.

Entering the 4th week of the mega Blogging Marathon under baking theme and for this week I planned to showcase the savory recipes and miscellaneous baking. Today's recipe is going to be yet another flavorful bread made with Indian flavors such as garlic and coriander. For this theme I made a pull apart with the same flavor,but again my bad luck,the clicks are not satisfied due to gloomy weather . So wanted to try the same flavor with different shape.When I was searching some videos to shape the bread,this flower shape bread with nutella looks cute and easy to make.So tried in a savory flavor and the result was a very nice and flavorful bread.Here,also I shaped a small quantity of dough to a different flower.You can try your own choice of stuffing.Off to the recipe.........................                                                  ...

Coming to the day 2 of Blogging Marathon #50,I chose to do  potato dish  given.Potato is one such versatile vegetable and n number of recipes can be made. Potato tikki is a multi purpose dish that can be relished as such with tomato ketchup as an appetizer or snack.It can be even used in sandwich or to make chaat along with the chutneys. The highlight the tikki is,its pan fried and comparatively lesser calories than shallow or deep fried versions.Off to the recipe..........................................                                                                                                                                 ...
