Microwave White Chocolate Fudge/Barfi

Microwave White Chocolate Barfi
There is something so comforting about desserts.. that sweet goodness. And nothing beats chocolate. We love white chocolate. What better occasion to make Chocolaty Nutty Fudgy Bars than Feb 14!  Happy Valentine's Day everyone! 
Ever since I picked a bag of dry cranberries, this fudge was on my mind. And to make my day easier, I tried a microwave version of White Chocolate Fudge or Barfi.

Ingredients:
White Chocolate Chips - 1 cup
Sweetened Condensed Milk - 1/2 cup
Dry Cranberries - 1/4 cup
Cashews/Kaju - 1/8 cup
Unsalted Butter - 1 tbsp
Vanilla Extract - 1 tsp

How to cook Chocolate Fudge/Barfi in a microwave:
  • Roughly chop cranberries and cashews. I have used raw cashews. You could use roasted nuts as well. Pick your favorite dry fruits and nuts - golden raisins, cherries, dry mango, almonds/badam, pistachios/pista, walnuts/akrot, pecans.
  • In a dry microwave safe bowl add butter. Microwave for 30 seconds so that butter melts. Add half of the melted butter to a plate/tray and spread it well. Keep the greased plate aside.
  • Add condensed milk and chocolate chips to the bowl and microwave for 20 seconds. Chocolate will slowly start melting. Stir with a spoon. Microwave for another 30 seconds or until chocolate chips completely melt.

  • Lastly, add vanilla extract, chopped cranberries and cashews. Stir well and pour it on the greased plate and spread it. Refrigerate it for about 2 hours or until chocolate hardens. Cut out squares and enjoy White Chocolate Fruit and Nut Fudge anytime you like.

Naval Kol Bhaji / Kohlrabi Stir-fry

Green Kohlrabi called as Navalkol in Marathi and Navilkosu in Kannada, belongs to the cabbage family.  My Mom used to make this stir fry very often.  Just like cabbage, this vegetable in available in two colors - green and purple.  I was quite hesitant about the purple one, as I haven't seen that back in India.  Anyway, I picked the green bulbs and Navalkohl Bhaji with Chana Dal was part of our healthy vegetarian meal today.

Indian Dal / Lentils

Lentils, known as Dal are a staple in an Indian diet, especially vegetarian. For me, dal is comfort food. 5 different dal varieties - Toor, Moong, Chana, Masoor and Urad are commonly used in Indian sweet and savory delicacies. You can cook dal with just one kind or a mix of two or more. I generally cook dal with 1:1 Toor and Moong dals. But then, we like Panchmel or Panchratna Dal too, which is made of all five. Most dal recipes have Toor dal as the primary ingredient. It is also known as Toovar or Arhar dal or Split Pigeon Peas . Some of our family favorite dal recipes are Dalitoy (Konkani Dal)  Tadka Dal Among all lentils, moong dal and masoor dal take lesser time to cook. Moong dal is also known as Split Green Gram or Split Mung Bean . Moong dal is also used in making sweet dishes like Mung Dal Kheer  Mung Dal Puranpoli Chana dal is also known as Split Bengal Gram or Split Chickpeas . Chana Dal takes a little more time to cook as compared to toor dal....
