My deep condolence for the victims and their families ,who lost their precious life in a terrible fire at Park Street in Kolkata yesterday. Stephens Court reminds me of Flury’s a confectionery house where we used to go on weekends sometimes.
My hubby‘s close friend and colleague’s sister’s BIL was one of the victim of this terrible fire at park street. That poor guy only checked in his office at 1.30 p.m. and the fire broke at 2 p.m.Isn’t it was destiny or what else? If he could have chosen to stay back home, his life and his near n dear ones life, might have been different today.

I love strawberries and anything with strawberries:) and this bread looks so delicious:) Feel like having a slice now:)
ReplyDeleteTomar reply'gulo porchhilam...you are absolutely right about the yoghurt and sour cream thing!Just the other day I baked a yoghurt and cashewnut cake(I hope to post it pretty soon) with french vanilla yoghurt and it turned out quite good!The original recipe had sour cream but I substituted it with yoghurt for the same reason as yours.Just a guess-maybe adding the yoghurt straight out of the freezer without letting it sit will prevent curdling...it actually worked for me that way:)
ReplyDeleteRachana,
ReplyDeletethanks and yeah we really enjoyed eating it..
W3,
Although I used plain yogurt , but seyita curdle kore ni jokhon mix korchilaam ..kinto my worry rather curiosity is how this recipe will turn out with home made "tok doi" ( jeyita amra barite doi pati ,not store bought).and yes that may help while making this cake -making the yogurt to sit for some time :)..thanks for your valuable inputs :)..
hugs and smiles
looks moist and delicious.
