Roasted nuts add a lot of flavour to desserts but

Roasted nuts add a lot of flavour to desserts but I often find people confused about the best way to roast nuts. Here are some tips that I follow -

- Roasting nuts on a stove top is possible but it’s usually difficult to control direct heat and leads to brown spots sometimes which don’t look great.
- Roasting nuts in the oven gives the most even all-round results.
- Low and slow is the best way to roast nuts in the oven. I like to bake them at 150 degree C for 25-30 minutes while tossing one or two times in between. I find that this gives the most consistent results.
- Place the nuts in a single file on the tray and not heaped up.
- Ideally use a separate tray and don’t directly use the baking tray that comes with the oven. This will reduce the chance of the nuts burning.
- If you’re not sure of how much time it might take in your oven, just watch for the nuts getting shiny, brown and aromatic. That’s a sure indicator that they’re done.
- If you use an oven with a powerful fan then please use a silicon mat so the nuts don’t fly all over the oven.
- Store the nuts in air-tight containers. I store mine in the refrigerator.

Hope this helps. Do you have any additional tips that you follow? Do let me know in the comments 👇

Recipe Eggless Thandai Tres Leches The perfect

Recipe

Eggless Thandai Tres Leches

The perfect and only Holi treat to indulge in this year! A moist sponge cake soaked in a fragrant thandai flavoured milk mixture and topped with cream and nuts!

Try it out and tell me how you like it!

For the sponge

Refined flour/Maida - 1 1/4 cup
Cornflour - 3 tbsp
Baking powder - 1 1/4 tsp
Baking Soda - 1/2 tsp
Yogurt - 1 cup
Castor sugar - 3/4 cup
Oil - 1/2 cup

For the soaking mixture
Milk - 1.5 cups
Condensed milk - 1/4 cup
Thandai syrup or powder - 3-4 tbsp
Saffron - 6-7 strands

Method

Make the sponge
1) Pre-heat the oven to 180 degree C. Grease or line a square pan (I used a 7 inch square)
2) In a bowl, whisk the yogurt, sugar and oil.
3) Add the flour, cornflour, baking powder and baking soda. Combine well and transfer to the baking pan.
4) Bake for 20-24 minutes or till a skewer comes out clean.

For the soaking milk
Combine all the ingredients. Add more thandai if needed.

To assemble
1) Cut the sponge into 4 sections or more.
2) Place a piece upside down onto the serving platter. 3) Generously soak with the prepared soaking milk mixture. Poke a few holes on the surface of the cake if needed so the sponge absorbs maximum liquid.
4) Refrigerate for a minimum of 30-60 minutes so that the sponge has time to soak in all the milk mixture.
5) Serve with whipped cream,
Chopped nuts and rose petals as garnish.
