Asian Green Mango Salad with Water Cress and Mango Dressing

We all have some friends or family over for dinner once and a while, when the occasion is a bit special, a “Gourmet” presentation is nice to keep up with that occasion.
A little holding basket made from spring roll skin makes this salad look truly special. If the occasion is not near, try this salad for lunch in a sunny summer setting.
Green mangos are sour and tangy and that is exactly what makes them a great salad ingredient. Shredded is the best way to incorporate them with other crunchy veggies.
Basil leaves. Better still if you can find Vietnamese basil, cilantro and mint makes this salad a great dish.

Mini Soufflé Pancakes 🥞❤
My very first attempt at making these and I think I nailed it 👌🏻 The recipe is super-easy and once you start making these for the first time, you'll want to make these over and over again 😋 an electric hand-held mixer with the attachments, a frying pan, a metal spatula and a stove (gas or electric) are all you need.To make this recipe cruelty-free, substitute all the non-vegetarian ingredients with it's plant-based counterparts 🌱#breakfastgoals 🥞🥃To make these pancakes even more special, my suggestion would be, to serve this with your favorite fruit(s) or fruit salad and a glass of any fruit juice made from your favorite fruit(s). Drizzle a bit of maple syrup or chocolate syrup on it, or sandwich it with some whipped cream and nutella... the choices are endless! This recipe is 100% customizable no matter how you decide to make it or what you choose to top it off with. If you need to make a bigger amount of this, simply double or triple the amount of ingredients. Afsara Mehrin -
Shooters Sandwich. Pressed Steak and Mushroom Sandwich with 8 layers. Ultimate Steak Sandwich
The concept of this sandwich is to put cooked steak and mushrooms inside a hollowed out loaf of bread then press it down with weights. Weights are used to press down on the sandwich, which causes all the juice from meat and other toppings to soak into the bread. Shooter’s sandwich originated in England during the Edwardian era. It was created so that hunters could easily carry lunch with them, hence I guess the name Shooter’s sandwich. My version has 8 layers of different type of toppings. I guess I can call it evolution of food 😊. Kiron Ahsan -

🎤🎹 Keyboard Cake 🎵🎈
A birthday cake I made for the (fictional) vocalist/keyboardist of the virtual band, Gorillaz waaaay back in 2016. Thought about sharing the recipe here. It was his (2-D's) 'supposedly' birthday yesterday and this keyboard cake, which is chocolate both inside and out was one of the best birthday cakes I've ever made for him. He's my favorite Gorillaz character and I've had this heavy crush on him ever since I first saw him and his (fictional) bandmates on TV as a 9 year old girl 19 years back!!Due to ingredient shortages at home because of the lockdown caused by the ongoing covid-19 outbreak, fearing the virus, I couldn't run down to the store to get my usual cake supplies and bake him any new birthday cake this year. It's sad but sharing an old recipe won't hurt anybody, I suppose.I divided the recipe and baked this cake separately in 2 square tins since I didn't have any rectangular tin with me at the time. If you have a rectangular tin, bake the full recipe in one go! If you're in a hurry, you can bake this in the microwave for 04:00 minutes like the way I did. If you're using the usual electric oven, remember to pre-heat your oven first. Afsara Mehrin -
