While making Coconut Macaroons yesterday,I was thinking about my Dad.After a good meal,he would go to the kitchen and ask my Mom Wats there to eat?? He actually meant something to munch or savories. We call it ?Norukuthini? in Tamil.I wud ask Wats there to Norukufy?? (jes a modernized way of calling it).Mom used to get wild at times as we would have jes finished our dinner.My Bro and me wud end up laughing:).The funniest part are the things that he would enjoy eating. If he dint find anything like a Muruku,Mixture or cookies,he would scrape lil coconut and eat it with sugar,Toasted Peanuts/Cashewnuts/Pistachios or even as simple as milk powder. Things havent changed even now!
Similarly,once P gets back from work he looks around in the kitchen to norukufy something:-P.I try and make different stuff for him and this was the easiest I could think of making yesterday.
Ingredients:
Shredded coconut ? 2 ? cup (I used sweetened coconut)
Sweetened condensed Milk ? ? cup
Vanilla extract/essence ? 1 tsp
Salt ? a pinch
Method:
1.Mix all the ingredients together
2.Use an Ice cream scoop or spoon to drop the mixture onto a greased baking sheet and bake at 325F (preheated)for about 15 min or until golden brown. Cool it before munching:-D
Prep Time ? 5 mins apart from the baking time.
Serving –Makes around 25-30 small Macaroons.
I also used Hershey’s Chocolate syrup on top of the macaroons.P doesn?t prefer this much,so jes made a few for myself.Few even add eggs to the recipe.Let me know if anyone has tried that.
