Cracked wheat

I have made goduma rava upma quite  a few times now. But today without sweating for too long. From the Tabbouleh salad episode, I wanted to try making the goduma rava upma in the bulgur style of letting it sit in boiled water. I put 2 and 1/2 cups of water to boil in a seasoning of ginger, onions, cumin, green chili and salt. Attending to the baby, I asked my husband to put in 1 cup of cracked wheat #1 (size # if you are wondering what this sizing is all about). 20-30 min later, I recalled that we should have put in 1 and 1/2 cup of cracked wheat. I went into the kitchen expecting a water logged dish. But there were few depressions indicating that te grain to water ratio was good.

Banana pudding

I went over the roasted banana pudding recipe from yesterday and found it too consuming (shopping time, dishes, baking time), I finally decided on  caramelized banana pudding . And meringue making is merry. Flour is used in making the custard.  all purpose flour plays the corn starch  role of thickening the custard. I used  Parle G  instead of vanilla wafers.
