Eggless Brownies that are easy to whip up

Brownies are one of those desserts that are seldom hated. The right ingredients can make an incredible brownie and really hit that sweet spot. The first time I tried making brownies by myself was in the year 2015 when a colleague from work wrote down a recipe for me. I tried and it worked. Thank you Jiten dai for that wonderful recipe. But this time I wanted to take things differently. I worked with what I had and I wanted to boycott eggs in the recipe.

So how can you easily whip up eggless brownies? Here is how

You will need

3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

2 cups milk

1 ½ cup of flour

6 teaspoons of sugar

1 tablespoon of vanilla essence

A pinch of salt

4 tablespoons of butter

You will find most of these ingredients at home.

Preparation time: 15 mins

Cooking time: 15- 20 mins

Eating time: totally depends on you

Instructions

Take your grinder and put in that sugar. Grind until fine powder
Then melt butter in a microwave safe bowl in the microwave.
Pour in your butter in a larger bowl where you can mix everything.
Splash in about 1 cup of milk with that butter. Add in your vanilla essence. These are our wet ingredients. Give it a good stir.
Mix in your sugar.
Sift in your flour and your cocoa powder and give it a good mix. Make sure you are only mixing in one direction.
Sprinkle in that dash of salt. It will bring out the flavors more.
Tap the bowl on the counter to make sure there are no air bubbles in the mixture.
Pre heat your oven at 180 degrees.
Lay your parchment paper or butter paper on the tray. This will make taking out the brownies so much easier and mess free.
Bake the brownies at 180 degrees for 15 – 20 minutes.
Decorate them to your heart’s content.

These brownies taste great whether warmed up in the microwave or chilled in the refrigerator. They taste best with a mug of coffee.

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 ...

The Oldest Kumari

Dhana Kumari Bajracharya resides amidst the hustle and bustle in Gabahal, Patan. She is a 70 year old woman, who you would think is much younger at age, if you look at her. Age seems to have done justice to this beautiful woman. What makes this wise old woman different than other wise old women in Patan? She is the oldest Kumari of Patan. Kumari, the living goddess is a tradition or a practice that has been around for many years and that has been celebrated widely in the Kathmandu Valley. The very first Kumari goes back to 17 th Century. The process to choose the Kumari is divine and a girl must go through several tests to get chosen as the Kumari. Dhana Kumari Bajracharya is the longest serving Kumari of Patan having been established as the Kumari from 2010 B.S to 2042 B.S. A whooping 32 years. Perhaps her case is the most rare that we might come across. A girl serves as a Kumari until she reaches puberty, or she has her first menstruation. After that, it is believed that th...
