Easy Smooth & Rich Egg Pudding

Some Important Tips to Make Best Egg Pudding:

Learn how to make best Egg Pudding by following these tips and tricks.
1. One-dish Pudding: Recipe can be baked in lightly greased 1-1/2 qt. soufflé or baking dish. Pour hot water to within 1 inch of top of dish. Increase baking time to 35 to 40 minutes.
2. No-mess pouring: Make pudding in a bowl with a pouring lip, or transfer it to a large glass measure, to make filling pudding cups easier and neater.
3. For perfectly smooth custard: Strain it through a sieve when filling pudding cups or baking dish to remove any tough egg strands.
4. Don’t skip the hot-water bath. A hot water bath, insulates the pudding from the direct heat of the oven and promotes even cooking so the edges don’t overcook before the center is done. Very hot tap water will do.
5. When is it done? Baked Pudding should be removed from the oven (and water bath) before the center is completely set. The center will jiggle slightly when dish or cup is gently shaken. Pudding will continue to “cook” after it’s removed and center will firm up quickly. Over baked Pudding may curdle.
6. The knife test: Test for doneness with a thin-bladed knife. Insert knife about 1 inch from the center of the dish. If knife is clean when pulled out, the pudding is done. If pudding clings to the blade, bake a few minutes longer and test again.
7. Serving Options: You can have this yummy dessert by adding dry fruits, jelly or caramel, but today I am making the basic one.
If you are craving for something sweet yet easy dessert in this foggy weather, nothing could be better than this Egg Pudding. Do try it, your kids are going to fall in love with this proteins and calcium rich dessert. You can also serve this dessert for your next party and this will definitely not going to disappoint your guests.

Homemade Veggie Pizza Recipe
Jump To Recipe

Print Recipe

We’ve entered the season of warm comfort food. Soups, Stews, roast meat, etc. And sometimes all that heavy food seems . . . well . . . heavy.

Homemade Veggie Pizza

Just about everyone loves pizza, myself included. However, traditional restaurant pizza is generally made with refined (white) flour, and loaded with saturated fat and sodium – things that can quickly lead to weight gain and harm your health. To make pizza something I can feel good about eating regularly, I’ve found ways to make my own healthier versions. The key is using whole grains, less cheese and loading up on lots of healthy veggies and herbs. Also eating produce that’s in season helps you save money and also ensures you are getting a good variety of foods and nutrients.

This pizza included some of my favorite veggies and herbs: carrots, red onion, broccoli, corn, green or red pepper, olives and fresh basil. The ingredients only required about 20 minutes of prep time, starting with chopping the veggies and tossing them in a little olive oil for roasting. Adding a fresh herbs to the veggies adds nice flavor (and makes your kitchen smell amazing during cooking!).

In addition to its great taste, winter veggies especially broccoli is the good sources of dietary fiber and rich in magnesium. Broccoli is loaded with antioxidants, fiber, and numerous vitamins and minerals including magnesium, fol-ate and fiber which are good for health.

While my super-food veggies were roasting I gathered and prepped my other ingredients. The dough only required a thin spread of pizza sauce and cheese to provide creamy texture and cheesy flavor.

The veggies were done once they were slightly crisped and fork-tender, and I spooned them over the dough. I finished the pizzas off by topping them with the Mozzarella cheese, olives and a sprinkle of herbs.

The last step involves popping the pizzas in the oven – I chose to make veggie pizzas in individual mini pizza pans. They only needed about 15 minutes to cooked the dough and for the cheese to melt. I loved the contrast of the cheese, olives and herbs with the crunch from the veggies on this flavorful pizza!

Photo: Homemade Veggie Pizza.. Yum

If you need a lighter dish, that doesn’t skimp on flavor, try this Homemade Veggie Pizza recipe. It’s fresh, full of flavor, and won’t weigh you down like the winter comfort food can. Pizzas like this can be enjoyed as a quick and easy lunch or dinner, and make a tasty addition to a healthy diet. Enjoy!

Photo: Pizza loaded with cheese and veggies ♥

Recipe Tip’s:
1. Feel free to play around a bit with the ingredients in this recipe if you make it yourself.
2. Add nuts (walnuts, pumpkin seeds), more veggies, would be great, and you could also skip the cheese all-together and instead use the ricotta cheese as the sauce/base.
Bismillah, Let’s get started!

Broccoli Spaghetti Soup (Clean Eating Version)

In the last week, I seriously made four different types of soups. This Broccoli Spaghetti Soup was my favorite of the four, and surprisingly, the healthiest as well!

The recipe starts with crisp stalks of organic broccoli. I am making the organic distinction here, because the main flavor of this soup comes from the broccoli, so it’s got to be top notch. That means organic and preferably local.First tossed broccoli with olive oil until tender, caramelized and aromatic. Then stir in born broth and cooked spaghetti. It’s chunky, brothy savory, and just the right balance of pasta and green veggie. I love the aroma of parsley and chunky broccoli in this soup.

Restaurant Secret Revealed: Make Restaurant-Style Hot and Sour Soup at Home!
Learn how to make restaurant-style Hot and Sour Soup with this quick and easy recipe. It’s easy to adapt to your personal taste preferences, and so delicious!

Hot and Sour Soup

Delicious hot and sour soup does not need to be complicated. This Hot and Sour Soup recipe is quick and easy to make, SO tasty and flavorful, and tastes just like the Chinese restaurant version!

And today’s recipe is one that I’ve been meaning to share with you on the blog for years, after literally dozens and dozens of you have requested it. (apparently many of you usually opt for the hot and sour soup at your favorite Chinese restaurants and have wanted to learn how to make it!)

Well, good news, friends! Traditional hot and sour soup is actually incredibly easy to make as well. And the bonus of making it at home is that it’s also incredibly easy to customize to your taste. Like it extra hot? Add in more chili garlic sauce. Like it extra sour? Add in more rice wine vinegar. Like it vegetarian? Make it with tofu. Like the meat version? Just add in some chicken.

Trust me, this is one of those restaurant recipes that will taste just as good at home. And on chilly winter weeks like this one that we’re having here in Lahore, it’s guaranteed to warm you up in the most delicious of ways.

Really, traditional hot and sour soup is just a hotter and sour-er version of egg drop soup, with some mushrooms and chicken (or tofu) thrown in. Oh, and bamboo shoots. Although I’m not really a fan of those, so I left them out in the version above (and included instructions in the recipe for how to add them if you’d like).I highly recommend using shiitake mushrooms for this recipe if you want it to taste ultra-authentic. But if you can’t find any, baby bella or white button mushrooms will totally work too.

Winters’s most favorite mouth watering hot and sour soup, You can serve as appetizer to your guests in special dinner or lunch. Serve very hot to enjoy it’s real taste.

Hot and Sour Soup with lots of veggies has a wonderful blend of hot and sour flavours, this is the perfect choice for a lazy winter evening. I love hot n sour soup especially if I have one of those really bad sinus or chest colds. Try this Hot and Sour Soup Recipe, and don’t forget your experience with us !!

Then just follow the instructions and bring everything to a simmer, drizzle in those eggs in a thin stream while stirring the soup (to create those pretty egg ribbons), and add in your cooked chicken (or tofu) and sesame oil and green onions at the end…

…and serve it up nice and warm, topped with extra green onions for garnish.

The whole thing usually comes together for me in just about 20-25 minutes, making it the perfect meal to warm you up quickly on a chilly day. I love serving it with my homemade fried rice recipe, or any kind of stir-fry that sounds good. And it always, always hits the spot.

Stay warm this week, everyone!
