Blueberry chocolate mousse aka Abuzulu

 M. Is almost five and cooks truly instinctively… she wanted a cool dessert today and she asked me to make this .. the only modification I made was in whipping the cream .. the rest is exactly hers .. blend and strain the blueberries, melt the chocolate and I whipped the cream with some sugar and vanilla. Mixed all three in roughly equal proportion and we got the awesome Abuzulu from the fabled land of Abu .. I have no idea how she came up with this .. but as always, she was very clear about what she wanted and made sure that she got it …  A couple of days ago, she made an apple blue berry salad with shredded lettuce and Dalia for crunch. I made her some honey dressing, but it was a good salad. Entirely her invention. 

Methi para

 Wash and chop a bunch of methi. Add it to about half a cup of atta, half a cup of AP flour, 2 tbs of sooji and 2 tbs of besan. Can also add some rice flour. Add salt, turmeric, red chilli powder, corriander powder and a handful of sesame seeds. Also add about 1 tbsp of oil. Mix everything and add about half a cup of water and make a semi soft dough. Let it rest for about half an hour. Roll, dock and cut into small squares and fry in medium hot oil. Sprinkle some black salt and pepper powder.
