Cookies in the Microwave



Yeah, you read it right. I know; I thought it was not possible either. I thought microwave desserts were limited to mug cakes and mug meals but this one is a real mindblower. Not only can you indulge in your favorite oatmeal and raisin cookies in mere minutes, the taste is pretty awesome too.

Here is what you’re going to need. And I added a little twist to the authentic oatmeal and raisin; I added peanut butters.


1 egg

3 teaspoons sugar

½ cup flour

3 tablespoons oats

2 teaspoons peanut butter

½ teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon vanilla essence

2 tablespoons milk

Raisins to your liking


The preparation time can take anywhere from 5 – 7 minutes and the cooking time maximum 2 minutes. It’s a win-win situation for everyone.


Instructions:
  1.        If you do not have caster sugar or granulated sugar, grind it. It makes cookies stick better.
  2.       Crack in your egg in a bowl
  3.        Add in your sugar to your egg and beat it
  4.        Pour in your milk to the mixture
  5. Add in your oats, rolled or oat flour, whichever you like. I put in rolled oats.
  6. Mix peanut butter in there
  7. Add flour to the mixture
  8. Mix properly
  9. Add in the baking powder
  10. Pour in the vanilla essence
  11. Give it another go
  12. Dump your raisins in there
  13. You should end up with a kind of mushy sticky dough that you can form into little balls
  14. Grab a microwave safe plate; you can add butter paper on top of the plate if you have some
  15. Place in the cookies at a ‘social distance’ from each other. See what I did there? *wink *wink. Give them enough room.
  16.  Push some raisins on the top to make your cookies look prettier
  17. Set the microwave at P100 for 1.30 minutes
My microwave is 1250 watts so check yours to ensure the timing and adjust accordingly.

Rajamati

I think we’ve all heard the song of Rajamati growing up. It is so popular that many people in Nepal claim this is the only Newari song that they have heard. The song was written some 200 years back. The first few lines go like this, which I’m sure you must have heard of, unless you’ve been living under a rock: Rājamati kumati, jike wasā pirati Hāya bābā Rājamati-chā Rājamati mabila dhāsā Kāshi wane tela bubā Hayā biu Rājamati-chā. San dhāsā kuli kuli, mikhā dhāsā bālā bālā Sakumi yā mhyāy machā lā Khwā dhāsā tuyu khwā, khwālay niga tee du Tāhā Nani yā Rājamati-chā. It is said to be written by or rather from the perspective of a man who was infatuated and in awe of the beauty of Rajamati. He describes with great admiration: her hair, her eyes, her complexion and the little moles on her face. However it is unknown who the writer of this beautiful song is. The song rushed into popularity after it was played in England in 1850 when Prime Minister Jung Bahadur Rana vi...

Best Places for Breakfast in Kathmandu

The only reason I love sleep, more than the reason that, well, it’s sleep, is that it’s like time travelling to breakfast.  Yeah, no kidding. Breakfast, the most important meal of the day. Whoever named that meal breakfast, was straightforward. I don’t know who named lunch and dinner, but the breakfast guy? He cut in straight to the point, didn’t he? Because breakfast is literally breaking your 8-10 hours fast. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince, and dinner like a pauper, they say. So, you don’t really want to compromise on breakfast now, do you? Now, this is no backlashing, but in many restaurants around town, the most breakfast things they have on the menu are omelet and toast. Yeah, I was disappointed too. There’s this restaurant in Mangal Bazar, where my best friend and I met up early morning. We decided to have breakfast. The restaurant overlooks the courtyard so it’s a beautiful place to talk over a cup of coffee or tea. She and I ordered a cheese ...
