  • Instant yeast – 2.25 teaspoons or 1 pack
  • Salt – 1 teaspoon
  • Milk – 1.5 cups
  • Butter – 6 tablespoons
  • Egg – 1, room temperature

The cinnamon sugar filling

  • Butter – ¼ cup, room temperature
  • Brown sugar – 2/3 cup
  • Ground cinnamon – 1 tablespoon
  • Salt – a pinch

Cream cheese frosting

  • Cream cheese, 4 ounces, room temperature
  • Unsalted butter, ½ cup, room temperature
  • Milk – 2 to 3 tablespoons
  • Powdered sugar – 3 cups
  • Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon
  • Salt – a pinch

Instructions

  • Take a large bowl and mix 2 cups of flour, salt, sugar and yeast.
  • Melt the butter and warm the milk. Just put them in the oven for 30 seconds.
  • Add warm milk and butter to the flour.
  • Add the egg.
  • Beat the mixture at low speed using an electric beater for 2 minutes. Add 1 more cup of flour and beat again till the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
  • Knead the dough for 10 minutes by hand or in a stand mixer.
  • Let it sit for an hour to give room to rise.
  • Roll the dough into a rectangle. Prepare the filling by mixing all the ingredients and spreading the filling over the dough.
  • Spread the butter of the filling towards the edges and press hard so that the dough sticks to the butter.
  • Roll up tightly and seal the bottom by punching the dough.
  • Make slices (about 12) using a sharp knife and place them in a baking pan (preferably 9X13 inch size). Make sure the pan is lined with parchment paper.
  • Cover the dough and let it rise for one hour.
  • Bake in the oven for 30 minutes at 350 degrees F or till it's golden brown in color.
  • Top them with cream cheese icing after it is cooled. Use a stand mixer or handheld mixer to blend the cream cheese, butter, milk, powdered sugar, salt, and vanilla extract.
  • Beat in low heat and then slowly increase the speed until it becomes light and fluffy. Now spread the icing on the 12 rolls evenly.

How to know kneading is sufficient


You can use the window pane test to see if your kneading is done. To do this rip off a piece of dough and put it in between your fingers. Gently spread the fingers to stretch the dough. If it stretches out and gets translucent then the dough is perfect. To see if it is translucent, go near a window and see if light passes through the dough. If the dough rips then you need to knead more.

Tips

  • Don't over-bake. In fact, it should be a bit under-baked at the center.
  • Don't overheat the milk as it will kill the yeast and your cinnamon roll won't rise.
  • For the filling, use butter at room temperature.
  • Eat them warm to get the best taste. If it gets cold, put it in the microwave for 20 seconds before eating.

Storing

You can keep the dough in the freezer after it rises for the first time. Before you want to bake it, thaw the dough overnight or warm it for 30 seconds. If you want to store it after baking, first let the cinnamon rolls reach room temperature. You can either put the entire baking pan in the freezer or put the cinnamon rolls inside an airtight container.

Instead of baking muffins or chocolate chip cookies, try a cinnamon roll today. It's a healthy and super delicious baking item that everyone In your family will love. It might take some time to make a perfect dough. A soft and fluffy cinnamon roll is what you will need on a stressful day to keep you calm.

I won't be surprised if you haven't heard of this Italian dish Frittata. It's a popular local dish that has gained popularity in other parts of the world as well. You will find similarities with an omelet, scrambled eggs, or crustless quiche. The twist is that it's enriched with vegetables, meat, and cheese to give you a much-enhanced taste. Also, the ratio of egg to milk is different in quiche where you use fewer eggs and more milk. This makes the texture of frittata more solid than quiche. Omelet, on the other hand, is lighter than frittata and you don't need to bake it.


Ingredients

  • Large eggs – 8
  • Milk – 1/2 cup
  • Mozzarella cheese – 1 cup
  • Goat cheese – ½ cup
  • Cherry tomatoes – ½ cup
  • Bell pepper – ½ cup, different colors
  • Butter – 1 tablespoon
  • Herbs – 1 teaspoon
  • Salt – to taste
  • Red pepper flakes
  • Ground black pepper

This recipe is ideal for serving 4 people.

Cooking method

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Whisk eggs, heavy cream, and salt together until you get a smooth texture. Set them aside.
  3. Chop the vegetables. Boil some vegetables like kale, broccoli, and others. You don't need to boil bell peppers and tomatoes. You can use mushrooms, jalapenos, or olives straight from the can.
  4. Put butter on the cast iron pan. It is good to use a pan 9X10 inches in diameter. This pan will fit both the stovetop and oven. Alternatively, coat the sides of the baking pan with melted butter.
  5. Add the vegetables evenly to the pan.
  6. Pour the egg mixture on top.
  7. Add cheese and other toppings.
  8. Bake them for 15 minutes. You should make sure that you don't over-bake the frittata, or else it will become dry and rubbery.

How to check if frittata is done:

  • Notice the center and edges of the frittata and see if they are still jiggly or not. If they are not and turn light golden in color then it is done.
  • Just like you test a cake, get a knife or toothpick and insert it into the center of the frittata. If they come out clean, you can stop baking.
  • You can use a thermometer to check the temperature. When the internal temperature becomes 160 degrees F, it is done.

You can serve it with coffee cake, scones, or cinnamon rolls.

Storing

You should first cool the frittata after taking it out from the oven and then slice it. Use a plastic wrap to cover the slices. Then put them in an airtight container. You can refrigerate it for up to 4 days. Before eating the refrigerated frittata you need to reheat it in the microwave.

Tips

  • If you want to omit dairy, then you can do so. However, the frittata will taste more eggy and less creamy.
  • It will be convenient for you to precook the vegetables.
  • Grease the baking pan; otherwise, frittata might stick to the pan.
  • It is better to cook the vegetables before pouring the egg mixture over them. Some vegetables tend to be watery, like spinach. So, if you don't cook it before, it will release water into the egg mixture making it watery.
  • Season and saute the veggies before adding the egg mixture.
  • Make sure your skillet is oven-safe and nonstick. It is best to use a cast iron skillet.
  • Add pesto sauce or warm salsa to spice it up.

Frittata variations


Frittata is a versatile egg dish that gives you room to be creative with the toppings. You can add your favorite ingredients to make it your favorite dish of the day.

  • Cheese – mozzarella, cheddar, parmesan, feta, or goat cheese
  • Veggies: Broccoli, red bell peppers, mushrooms, asparagus, onions, zucchini, eggplant, jalapenos, garlic, leaves, shallots, olives, tomatoes, spinach, and kale.
  • Meat: bacon, chicken, beef
  • Herbs: chives, ill, basil, parsley, oregano

Try out this excellent breakfast item today and get appreciation from your family members. It's easy to cook and delicious to eat. It is a great dish for a brunch. You can prepare the veggies in advance and keep them in the refrigerator so that you can cook quickly.

Ingredients

Dough

  • Whole milk – 1 cup, warm
  • Instant dry yeast – 2.25 teaspoons
  • Granulated sugar 1/3 cup
  • Eggs – 2, large
  • Unsalted butter – 85gm
  • Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon
  • Ground nutmeg – ¼ teaspoons
  • All-purpose flour – 4 cups
  • Vegetable oil – 1-2 quarts
  • Salt- ½ teaspoon

Glazing

  • Confectioner's sugar – 2 cups, sifted
  • Heavy cream or whole milk – 1/3 cup
  • Vanilla extract – ½ teaspoon

Cooking instructions

  1. Warm the milk.
  2. Add yeast and one tablespoon of sugar to the milk.
  3. Whisk them together with a spatula in a mixing bowl.
  4. Cover and let it sit for some 10 minutes till the top becomes frothy and foamy.
  5. Add the rest of the sugar, butter, eggs, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix. Then add flour. Beat using a beater for 1 minute at low speed. Make sure the scrape down the bowl's sides with a spatula.
  6. Pour the rest of the flour and now beat the mixture on medium speed.
  7. After beating for about 2 minutes, you will notice the dough coming together and pulling away from the bowl's sides. If it doesn't then add more flour, a small amount at a time until it comes off the sides of the bowl. Alternatively, you can knead the dough on a lightly floured surface. You need to press hard using your hand muscles.
  8. Grease a large bowl with oil. Put the dough in the bowl making sure to coat it on all sides with the oil. Cover the bowl and leave it for 2 hours in a warm place. Wait for it to double in size.
  9. Once the dough rises, punch the dough down to get rid of the air. Flour the rolling surface and put the dough there. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough. Make it ½ inch thick.
  10. Use a dough cutter (3 to 3.5 inches) to cut the dough in shape. Don't throw away the scraps. Re-roll them to make more shapes.
  11. Line baking sheets and place your doughnuts there. Cover them loosely and let them rest so that they rise a bit.
  12. You can either fry or bake the donuts. For frying, add oil to a heavy-duty pot. Heat the oil and put a few doughnuts at a time. Cook each side for one minute. Then take out the doughnuts and place them in a rack.
  13. To make the glaze whisk the ingredients. Adjust the consistency by adding more sugar if it's watery and adding water if it's too thick. Place them in different bowls and add different food colors if you want to make colorful donuts. After you add the food color whisk again to mix the color in each bowl. Dip the warm doughnuts into the glaze. Wait for the glaze to set.

Storing

You can freeze the doughnuts for up to 3 months. If you want to serve them then keep the doughnuts at room temperature for about 5 days.

How to knead the dough perfectly

The purpose of kneading is to incorporate air into the dough. You also need to stretch out the gluten strands to build strength and structure. If you don't knead properly, the donut won't rise and it won't be soft or fluffy. You can use the dough hook attachment of the stand mixture to knead the dough. First, run it on low speed. When you decide to use your hand instead, make sure you don't add more flour. Just use enough to prevent sticking it on your work surface and hand. When you feel that the texture of the dough is smooth and feels soft to the touch, you know that it's done. Another way to test it is to poke it with your finger. If it bounces back without sticking to the finger then you know that your kneading has been perfect. If it doesn't then continue kneading for a bit longer.

Frosting ideas


Strawberry donut frosting

Take 5 strawberries and blend them in a food processor. Add confectioner's sugar, strawberry jam, and vanilla extract.

Vanilla donut frosting

Whisk together melted butter, confectioner's sugar, milk, salt, and vanilla extract.

Chocolate Donut Frosting

Melt a chocolate bar, either sweet or dark. You can use chocolate chips as well. Add butter, corn syrup, and water.

You must remember to dip warm donuts into the frosting. Keep the frosted donuts on a cooling rack. Place the baking sheet below to catch any dripping.

  • Caramel
  • Cookies 'n Cream

Have you ever tried fish pasta? Well, it might be rare in your neighborhood restaurants, but it's very common in Italian restaurants. Fish pasta like the calabrian fish ragu pasta is equally popular just like the traditional ones. It is a quick meal that you can cook for your family in busy weekdays. The name 'calabrian' comes from the seasoning that is inspired by flavors of Calabria, like chillies, salami paste, and others. These seasonings give a bold flavor to this pasta.


Preparing the fish

It is convenient to buy fish fillets from the supermarket to save yourself from the hassle of cutting the whole fish. However, making the pasta with freshly cut fish is a different story. If you are opting for the second option then you first need to clean the fish properly. Take off the scales and cut the fins. Then remove the head. Make an incision from the belly. They cut the fish in half to get the fillets. Remove the skin using your knife. Get rid of the bones with the help of tweezers. Don't throw away the scraps as you need them to make the fish stock.

Ingredients

Calabrian fish

  • White fish fillets – 250 gm, skinless and boneless (you can choose cod, snapper, or barramundi fish for this dish)
  • Fennel seeds – 1 teaspoon
  • Smoked paprika – 1 tablespoon
  • Black peppercorn – ¾ teaspoon
  • Chilli flakes – ½ teaspoon
  • Nutmeg power – ½ teaspoon
  • Fine sugar – ½ teaspoon
  • Salt – to taste
  • Tomato paste – 2 tablespoon
  • Extra virgin olive oil – 3 tablespoons

Pasta

  • Pasta (spaghetti, fettuccine, or linguine pasta) – 250 gm
  • Salt – 1 teaspoon
  • Extra virgin olive oil – 1.5 tablespoon
  • Garlic cloves – 3
  • Tomato puree – ¾ cup

Garnish

  • Parsley – 1 tablespoon, finely chopped
  • Parmesan cheese – ¼ cup, grated

Pangrattato

  • Stale bread (like ciabatta or sourdough with crusts removed and bread chopped into irregular pieces) – 1 cup
  • Salt – a pinch
  • Extra virgin olive oil 2 teaspoon

Cooking instructions

  1. Place the pangrattato in the oven. Toss olive oil and salt, then bake at 180°C for 10 minutes or until they become crispy.
  2. Place a deep pot on medium flame. Toast fennel seeds and black peppercorn for a few minutes without any oil. When you start getting fragrant and the spices become slightly brown, remove them from the pan and transfer to a mortal. Crush and make powder using a pestle while still hot.
  3. Mix this spice with the Calabrian fish ingredients using a spatula and set them aside.
  4. Place the fish scrapes, head, and bones in a pan. Add fennel seeds, peppercorns, bay leaf, and water. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 30 minutes. Your fish stock will be prepared.
  5. In another stove place a frying pan and warm the oil. Add chopped onions and cook for 10 minutes. Add garlic, tomatoes, and some fish stock. Cook for a few minutes.
  6. Add the fish fillets and cook thoroughly. Turn the fish.
  7. Take another pan and pour the rest of the fish stock. Put the pasta now and add more hot water if needed according to the pasta packet instructions. Drain the water and keep it aside.
  8. When it's done, add parsley and parmesan; the pasta is complete!

Tips

  • The following fishes are ideal for this dish: cod, snapper, john or silver dory, varramundi, bream, tilapia, flathead, perch, bass, hake.
  • Avoid using fish like swordfish, bonito, tuna, marlin, or kingfish and they tend to dry out quickly when cooked. You must also avoid thin-filleted fish like turbot, sole, or plaice as they will blend completely into the dish. You shouldn't use mackerel or sardines as well because the taste of these fishes won't match your recipe.
  • Instead of using ready-made powdered spices, grind whole spices.
  • You can store the leftovers for up to 3 days inside the refrigerator.
  • You can add vegetables like onion, garlic, parsley, and carrot in a food processor s as needed. Saute the vegetable mixture in oil and put the tomato paste as well. Simmer for some time. Add blended tomatoes, fish sauce, and sugar.

If you enjoy fish dishes then you will love Calabrian fish ragu pasta. It may be a bit difficult to remember the steps when you cook for the first time. But you will get hold of it soon. It is not a very common item to serve the guests. So, you can be the one to serve it as a unique dish when you host any occasion at home.

If you are looking for a vegan dish then you might like this healthy dish. Though it's meant for vegan people, anyone can have it. The tricky question is that vegans don't eat any animal product but the name of the dish indicates that there is chicken. So, what's the catch?

These are tofu nuggets which are cooked in the air frying. Thus, they are a healthier choice than the chicken nuggets that you find in stores. These nuggets are crispy, juicy, and delicious. The main ingredients include tofu, dill pickle juice, and soy sauce. Tofu is used here as it gives the firm structure that chicken nuggets have. You must wash the tofu and press it for 20 minutes to remove water. Tofu is soft and can retain water easily. So, removing water this way ensures that the dish's flavor is not affected. The pickle adds tanginess and sweetness to the diet.


Ingredients

● Extra firm tofu – 1 block
● Dill pickle juice – 2 tablespoons
● Tamary soy sauce – 2 tablespoons
● White sugar – ½ teaspoon
● Extra virgin olive oil – 2 tablespoons
● White flour – 1 tablespoon
● Garlic powder – 1 teaspoon
● Black pepper – ½ teaspoon
● Smoked paprika- ½ teaspoon
● Salt – to taste
● Oil spray

Process of making vegan chicken nuggets

1. Get rid of the water from the tofu by pressing hard. Use a paper towel to clean them.
2. Using hand break the tofu into nugget-like pieces.
3. Combine dill pickle juice, oil, sugar, and soy sauce. Toss the tofu into this paste. Marinade in the fridge for an hour.
4. Put garlic powder, salt, pepper, flour, and smoked paprika in the air fryer, and then add tofu.
5. Air fry for 20 minutes. Make sure you flip the tofu halfway through.
6. You can spray some olive oil to ensure they don't stick to the surface.
7. After air frying if your nugget is not yet crispy then air fry again for some time.
8. If you don't have an air fryer you can bake the tofu in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes at 350 degrees C.


Variations

● You can make a dish with oyster mushrooms or cauliflower instead of tofu.
● You can use flour of your choice to coat the nuggets. For example, instead of wheat flour, you can use chickpea flour.
● Instead of dill pickle juice, you can use white vinegar or apple cider vinegar.

Preparing dill pickle juice

You can easily prepare this pickle using cucumber. Slice Persian cucumber lengthwise into quarters. Fill up a jar. Add fresh dill, garlic cloves, peppercorns, and mustard seeds. Next, you need to make brine. Mix white vinegar, sugar, water, and salt. Heat brine on the stove till sugar and salt dissolve. Pour it over the jarred cucumbers. Let the jars come to room temperature and then chill in the fridge.

Health benefits of tofu

● Contains essential amino acids
● Good for bones
● Supports heart health
● Helps in weight loss
● Maintains blood sugar level
● Lifts mood
● Reduces the chance of cancer

Tofu nugget is an excellent alternative to chicken nuggets. You will get a similar taste. If you don't have an air fryer you can fry. But baking would be a healthier option. Enjoy these vegan nuggets with your favorite sauce and pickles!
