Royal Icing

Royal Icing is a nearly flavorless icing that dries to a hard candy-like finish.Its a favorite of professional cake and cookie decorators.This is just a mix of powdered sugar and raw egg whites but due to the risk associated with raw eggs , its safe and easy to use the recipe using meringue powder.Meringue powder is a fine, white powder which are made form egg whites .Its available in most cake decorating and party stores . Plain royal icing is flavorless , so its better to add some kind of flavoring when we make the icing .This recipe makes about 3 cups of royal icing.


INGREDIENTS

4 cups powdered sugar
3 tbsp meringue powder
1/2 tsp extract (vanilla , almond etc)
6 tbsp water












DIRECTIONS

Kappa Vevichathu (Boiled Tapioca)

HOME | INDIMOM RECIPE | PRINTER FRIENDLY

Kappa (Tapioca) has been promoted from a poor man's food to the star of family feasts in Kerala.Being a Tattukada ( small road side shops) delicacy, everyone crave for Kappa in one form or other . My family makes kappa with ground coconut . But this time I decided to try something different. Tapioca diced , boiled , mashed and then lightly seasoned makes a simple and satisfying meal.Everyone has their own favorite accompaniment also. Kappa-Meen or fish curry , Kappa-Beef , Kappa-chicken, Kappa-pickle , Kappa-mulkaku chammandy or chilli chutney,Kappa Biryani - lots of choices.

Tapioca is a native of South America and the word is derived from a Brazilian language.This mainly starchy root , is treated and dried and is used in cooking.Tapioca in US market is usually the dried variety that looks like small white spheres . That is used in tapioca pudding . In my place , Kerala , we also get this dried version which is called 'chowwary' in Malayalam.Normally we used to make porridge out of it by adding milk , usually recommended for sick stomachs.Tapioca starch or flour is used as a thickening agent . In India , tapioca is sliced thin and deep fried to make tapioca chips also.

1 kg tapioca diced
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
salt to taste
3 tbsp coconut oil
1 tsp black mustard seeds
5 shallots or small red onions,sliced
4 dry red chillies
few curry leaves









DIRECTIONS

1. You can use fresh or frozen tapioca. Most of the time when i buy those wax coated root from the market , I will have to throw away half of it .So these days I rely on frozen tapioca (yucca root) bags. Thaw about one kilogram tapioca or yucca root .
2. Bring a large pot of water to boil.Dice the tapioca and add to the pot with tumeric powder and a generous amount of salt.Drain and mash it well using a wooden spoon .
3. Heat the oil in a pan.Splutter mustard and add shallots and saute till they are brown.Add dry chillies and curry leaves . Finally add the cooked tapioca into the seasonings and mix well . Serve warm with pickle or red fish curry.

Get Set Go

Back when I was a little girl , I never liked to do anything in the kitchen.I grew up in a middle class family and I used to feel sorry for my mother who had to do all the houseworks by herself.

Then I happened to marry a man who works in Unites States and moved here . Now even those works my mom never used to do , I have to do. But somewhere along the line , I started to enjoy cooking and started my culinary experiments. My recipebox got full with notes, my laptop got full with recipes ;then I started to look for a software that can organize all my notes and recipes.I couldnt find a good tool that could help me .The result of my frustration was my website www.INDIMOM.com.
