My favorite Sponge cake

Why a recipe for sponge cake? 

Because we all love a good tasty sponge cake yet not many can achieve to make the fluffiest cake. This is my tried and tested recipe and I love it any day. It will not take more than 1 hour to bake this.
Ingredients 

4 eggs
1 cup sugar (powdered)

1 cup of any light refine oil. I actually did not have good results when I used butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt

Method

1. Beat eggs in large mixing bowl with paddle attachment for 4 minutes.  Not in a mixture and make sure you do it religiously

2. Add sugar, and continue beating for another 4-5 minutes until light and fluffy.  

3. In a separate bowl, sift together dry ingredients.  Add to eggs and sugar on low speed until just combined.

4. Pour into two greased and floured 8" round cake pans. 

5. Preheat the oven at 180/200 and than bake at 325 until the middle springs back when touched, or a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let stand in pans for 10 minutes. 
 Its done.

Before baking the mixture, I sprinkled lots of raisins on top as I love raisins. You can your choices of dry fruits.

New Green Chutney in town

I found the recipe for new chutney. My mother says it is made mostly by Bengalis and trust me, It’s awesome Not only it is extremely simple but healthy as well. Why I like it so much because you won’t be throwing away food:

What you need:-

1)      The green parts of the cauliflower

2)      The outer shell of Bottle Gourd which in North East, we call  Pani lao

3)      The outer shell of a potato (5-6 of them)

4)      Chilies for taste

5)      3-4 cloves of garlic

6)      Salt

   ~~Take all the vegetables except the garlic and the chilly together and boil them for 4-5 whistles
    ~~ Once done, in a mixer, add all the vegetables with very little water and chilly and grind it to a fine paste
   ~~Then, heat little oil in a pan, fry the finely sliced garlic cloves and after 30 seconds       add the mixture. Add salt according to taste

There you have a nice yummy chutney.
