Happy Diwali and Mysoore Pak

Happy Diwali or Deepavali दिवाली or दीपावली to all my friends around the world whoVisit My Kitchen Treasures.

When i saw the recipie for Mysoor Pak by Latha Narasimhan from The Yum Blog I knew What sweet i have to make at home for Diwali.
Thankyou Latha.
Mysore pak is one of the favourite Indian sweets for my daughter and I. We both love it, so now i saw the recipie it was my chance to make them.

They came out very well even though i didn't get the fully honey comb effect.
Maybe i took out from the fire too fast. But still the taste was divine.
Woudn't it be with all the ghee in it.It reallt tasted good.

We have few Indian musicians comming over from India for playing few concerts with my husband, and they have a concert tommorow.

So i was saying to my daughter we'll give for them each packet of sweets and we can also give them homemade mysore pak.And after feww seconds she asked me you are not going to give all the mysore pak for them are you.
I told her no I will keep for us also and she said better believe it.

I am also sending this to Meeta's Monthly Mingle event Traditional Feast

Masala Peanuts

To my DELIGHT i saw this delicious looking Masala Peanuts in Cooking 4 all Seasons by Srivalli. I was so glad or is it HAPPY :-) to see them. Thankyou Sirvalli.

I love masala peanuts but i had to wait till i am in India for holiday to eat them as i didn't know how to make them.

And the way srivalli made it looked so simple , i coudn't wait to try them myself.
I was not disappointed at all. They are so easy to make and delicious too.......

While loading the picture to the computer i was eating them and now while i am writting this post i am crunching them on.

My daughter would love this also so i had to tell myself keep for her too so she can have them when she is back from school in few hours. Otherwise i would have ate them all. I know i know i am a greedy pow......
I am not writting the recipe down. If you want to make them just go to Cooking 4 all Seasons

This i am sending to An Easy Cooking blog, for the "power" less cooking event hosted by Easycrafts

The Ingridients

Mixing the peanuts

Frying them

This is my first bunch of peanuts i fried, they were a bit too brown. Srivalli had written fry them in a slow heat, but i think i was GREEDY

I learned my lesson from the first batch, so this batch i fried in a slow heat.

I mixed both the batches so you can see they are in two colours.
