Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat, cook patties for 4 to 5 minutes each side.
Top with pepperoni and cheese, cook for additional minutes until cheese is melted.
Make sure the patties sides are golden, add remaining ingredients and simmer.
Serve!
Is adding egg on the patties a good choice?

Speaking about myself, I prefer adding an egg to the patties because it helps the meat held together. Otherwise, the burger may fall apart.

Everyday Indulgence: The 5-Minute Cake You’ll Crave

Ingredients:

• 3 Eggs
• 150g (3/4 cup) Sugar
• 100ml (1/3 cup and 1 tablespoon) Vegetable Oil
• 150g (2/3 cup) Plain Yogurt

*More https://pst-algerie.org/homemade-carrot-bread-simple-and-soft-recipe/

Guidelines:

To get started, preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Evenly coat a round cake pan with non-stick cooking spray or a little amount of vegetable oil. Crack the eggs into a large mixing bowl to create the egg mixture. Beat the eggs with a whisk or electric mixer until they are slightly thickened and foamy.

Sugar Addition:

Whisk continually while gradually adding the sugar to the beaten eggs until the mixture is light and fluffy. By adding air to the mixture, this method gives your cake a lighter texture.

Oil Integration:

Whisk gently while gradually adding the vegetable oil to the egg and sugar mixture. To get a moist and soft cake, make sure the oil is well combined.

Incorporating Yogurt:

Gently incorporate the plain yogurt into the batter until it is evenly distributed. The yogurt improves the cake’s flavor and texture by giving it moisture and richness.

Preparing the Batter:

After combining all the ingredients, pour the batter into the cake pan and level it out with a spatula. This guarantees that the cake bakes evenly, giving it a soft interior and a golden brown shell.

The cake should be risen, golden, and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean after about 25 to 30 minutes of baking in a preheated oven. To avoid overcooking, keep a watch on the cake as the baking time comes to an end. After baking, take the cake out of the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes before serving. Before slicing, move the cake to a wire rack to cool fully. For a delicious treat, serve the cake plain or with your preferred toppings.

Hi everyone, today we’re going to learn how to make Dulce De Leche using simple ingredients. So grab your pen and paper to jot down the ingredients, then follow the complete preparation method.

Ingredients

• 3 bananas
• 30 g (2 tbsp) butter
• 250 ml (1 cup) milk
• 40 g (⅓ cup) corn starch
• 250 ml (1 cup) cream
• 150 g (⅓ cup + 2 tbsp) condensed milk

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare the Bananas

Start by slicing the 3 bananas into thin, even pieces. The slices should be small enough to cook through quickly and break down easily into a smooth puree.

Fry the Bananas

In a large frying pan, melt 30 g of butter over low heat. Once the butter has melted, add the banana slices to the pan. Cook the bananas gently for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they soften and become lightly caramelized. The gentle frying process enhances the natural sweetness of the bananas and brings out a rich, buttery flavor.

2. Make the Banana Base

Once the bananas are soft, use an immersion blender to blend them into a smooth puree. You can also use a regular blender if you prefer. The goal is to create a creamy, lump-free banana mixture.

Add Milk and Cornstarch

Pour 250 ml of milk into the banana puree and add 40 g of cornstarch. Stir the mixture well to ensure the cornstarch dissolves completely, avoiding any lumps. Cornstarch will act as the thickening agent, giving the mousse its silky texture.

3. Thicken the Banana Mixture

Transfer the banana mixture to a saucepan and cook it over medium heat. Stir constantly to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Cook until the mixture thickens into a smooth custard-like consistency, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat.

4. Cool the Custard Base

Pour the thickened banana mixture into a bowl. To prevent a skin from forming, cover the surface of the custard base directly with plastic wrap (in contact). Set it aside to cool to room temperature.

5. Whip the  Cream and Condensed Milk

While the custard base is cooling, prepare the cream mixture. In a separate bowl, whip 250 ml of cream with 150 g of condensed milk using a hand mixer. Beat until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. The cream should hold soft peaks, but be careful not to overwhip it, as you want a smooth, airy texture for the mousse.

6. Combine the Cream and Banana Mixture

Once the banana custard base has cooled, beat it with a mixer until smooth. Gradually fold the cooled banana custard into the whipped cream and condensed milk mixture. Continue to gently mix and beat the ingredients until they are fully combined, creating a light and creamy mousse.

7. Chill and Serve

Transfer the banana mousse into a pastry bag for easy serving. You can pipe the mousse into individual serving glasses or bowls for an elegant presentation. Alternatively, simply spoon the mousse into your preferred serving dishes.

For the best results, chill the mousse in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and gives the mousse a more structured texture.

 

Optional Toppings

For extra flavor and texture, you can garnish the banana mousse with a sprinkle of cocoa powder, grated  chocolate, or even chopped nuts. Fresh banana slices or a drizzle of caramel sauce also make excellent finishing touches.

• Carbohydrates: 42 g
• Fat: 16 g
• Fiber: 2 g
• Sugar: 28 g
• Serving Size: Serves 6

Ingredients:

For the Dough:

• • 200ml lukewarm milk

• • 100ml lukewarm water
  • 5 Tbsp (60g) sugar
  • 1 Tbsp (9g) active dry yeast

• • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp (4g) salt
  • 700g all-purpose flour

For the Filling:

• • 200g chopped walnuts
  • 80g sugar

• Cinnamon to taste (about 1-2 teaspoons, depending on your preference)
• 200g unsalted butter (softened)

For the Egg Wash:

• 1 egg yolk
• 1 Tbsp milk

Steps:

1. Prepare the Dough:

• • Activate the Yeast: In a small bowl, combine the lukewarm milk, lukewarm water, 5 tablespoons of sugar, and active dry yeast. Stir and let it sit for about 10 minutes, or until the mixture becomes foamy and bubbly. This means the yeast is activated and ready to use.

• • Mix the Dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and salt. Add the activated yeast mixture to the eggs and stir to combine. Gradually add the flour, 1 cup at a time, stirring after each addition. The dough should start coming together but still be slightly sticky.
  • Knead the Dough: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes, adding more flour as needed, until you get a smooth and elastic dough. The dough should be soft and only slightly sticky but not too wet.
  • Let the Dough Rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it has doubled in size.

2. Prepare the Filling:

• Mix the Filling Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the chopped walnuts, sugar, and cinnamon. Stir to combine. Set this mixture aside, as it will be the filling for your sweet bread.

3. Shape the Bread:

• • Roll Out the Dough: Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release the air. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and roll it into a large rectangle, about 1 cm (0.4 inches) thick.
  • Spread the Butter: Take the softened butter and spread it evenly over the rolled-out dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

• Add the Walnut Filling: Sprinkle the walnut, sugar, and cinnamon mixture evenly over the buttered dough. Press the filling down lightly with your hands to help it stick to the dough.
• Roll the Dough: Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log, making sure to seal the edges by pinching them together.

4. Final Proof and Egg Wash:

• • Prepare the Baking Pan: Place the rolled dough into a greased loaf pan, seam-side down. Cover it with a kitchen towel and let it rise again for about 30-45 minutes.

• Preheat the Oven: While the dough is proofing, preheat your oven to 180°C (356°F).
• Apply the Egg Wash: In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and 1 tablespoon of milk. Gently brush this mixture over the top of the dough to give it a shiny, golden crust during baking.

5. Bake the Bread:

• • Bake the Sweet Bread: Place the loaf in the preheated oven and bake for 60-70 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom.

• Cool the Bread: Once baked, remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Losing weight can be difficult, and some diets may not be helpful, especially when they cause the yo-yo effect. Ginger water is a great option for losing belly fat and more! It also helps reduce pain in the joints and many other health issues.

Highlight the advantages of drinking ginger water.

Ginger is a plant root known for its healing qualities. When consumed fresh, as a powder, in capsules, or as syrup, ginger has many benefits. It can help with different health issues like nausea, colds, rheumatism, constipation, and gas. It also has another special feature, which is to decrease body fat.

Its positive impact on health comes from the antioxidants it has, such as gingerol, which also helps reduce inflammation. The latter is transformed into compounds known as shogoals, mostly present in dried ginger, which may help prevent Alzheimer’s disease. Also, it has a lot of manganese that helps with the body’s metabolism and fights against harmful substances, along with copper, which is needed for making hemoglobin and collagen to heal the body.

Also, according to India Times, ginger has the following benefits:

Control blood pressure by acting as a blood thinner, regulating blood pressure, and preventing blood clots.

Lowering LDL cholesterol levels can be connected to heart disease.

Stop bacteria from growing in the body.

Enhance blood flow by consuming zinc and magnesium, which can help boost heart health.

Ginger is also known for reducing inflammation.

A study by RMG Biosciences showed that ginger is effective in fighting chronic inflammation. Ginger contains anti-inflammatory components that are as powerful as those found in non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Therefore, the compounds found in ginger can help lessen arthritis pain in people.

Ginger can also aid in reducing stomach fat.

Another interesting thing about ginger is that it can help you stay at a healthy weight and reduce belly fat. In a research study published in a scientific journal, it was found that overweight rats lost weight over 30 days when given gingerol. Researchers believe that adding gingerol as a supplement could be a good alternative for treating obesity.

In a similar situation, another research showed that giving rats ginger as a supplement helped them lose weight and also increased the levels of good HDL cholesterol in their blood.

Moreover, ginger makes you feel full, which helps decrease hunger and supports effective weight control. It also helps speed up metabolism and burn calories.

How can you make ginger water?

List of items needed to prepare a dish.

Some pieces of natural ginger root

1.5 liters of water

Lemon juice from one lemon (if desired)

Getting ready

Heat the water and put in the pieces of ginger. Let it cook for 15 minutes, then take it off the heat and let it cool down. You can put lemon juice if you want.

Drink this water three times a day: in the morning before eating, before lunch, and before dinner. This therapy should last no longer than 10 days.

Alerts

It is not advised for pregnant women to consume ginger, especially after the first three months of pregnancy.

It is not advisable for individuals with blood disorders due to its blood-thinning effect, as well as for those with diabetes and weak health.

Before beginning any treatment or diet, it is important to consult with your doctor.

I won’t even try to downplay how unhealthy this is. After eating this ham, I was at a loss as to what to do with the enormous amount of remaining meat. The white sauce in this lasagna recipe binds the ham, chicken, and other ingredients together.

This is a must-try if you like Easy Chicken Cordon Bleu. My mind went straight to my pregnant pals and how I might surprise them with this. It’s a recipe like that.

For some time now, I’ve been attempting to share this recipe, but I just can’t seem to get the words to come out. Even though the main focus of my site is recipes, I do my best to sprinkle in random life events, which I assume most readers will ignore (or at least skim). The recipe is already long and boring.

Ingredients:

What You Need: One 8-oz packet of lasagna noodles

1.5 cups of butter

1 (8-oz) tub of softened cream cheese

1/2 teaspoon of salt

half a teaspoon of pepper powder

1/4 teaspoon of black pepper, ground.

Swiss cheese, shredded, 1 and 3/4 cups

1/4 cup of hot milk

8 ounces of diced deli ham and 2 and 3/4 cups of cooked chicken

Half a cup of Swiss cheese that has been shredded

1/3 cup of breadcrumbs

1/2 teaspoon of Italian spice, or more or less according to personal preference

 

PREPARATION:

Get your oven hot, about 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).

To boil, add a little amount of salt to a big pot of water. After the water comes to a boil, add the lasagna and simmer, turning periodically, for about 8 minutes, or until tender but still firm to the biting. Run off.

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter. Add the cream cheese and whisk until the cheese starts to melt, which should take around 5 minutes. Chop some onions and add some salt and black pepper. Cream cheese and warm milk should be whisked together until creamy. Add 1 1/2 cups of Swiss cheese and mix. After the cheese has melted and the sauce has thickened, about 5 to 10 minutes, bring the sauce to a boil and whisk regularly. Take off the stove.

Pour 3/4 cup of cheese sauce onto the bottom of a baking dish that is 9×9 inches in diameter. Top 1/3 of the lasagna noodles with sauce, then top with 1/2 of the cooked chicken and 1/2 of the ham. Dollop 1 cup of sauce over the ham and chicken. Start with half of the remaining lasagna noodles, then add half of the remaining chicken, half of the remaining ham, and one more cup of cheese sauce. Repeat layering as needed. Lastly, add the remaining lasagna noodles, sauce, half a cup of Swiss cheese, bread crumbs, and Italian spice over the top. Place aluminum foil over the dish.

After approximately 25 minutes of baking in a preheated oven, the casserole should be bubbling. After 10 more minutes of baking without foil, the crumbs should be golden. Allow the dish to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before to consumption.

Frozen beef and frozen chicken 

• 1 pound dried Great Northern OR navy beans, picked over
• 1 large smoked meat bone, meat hock, OR meat shank
• 2 cups (approximately 6 ounces) shredded, julienned, or diced carrots
• 1 medium stalk celery, sliced
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 7 cups low-sodium chicken broth OR stock
• 2 bay leaves
• 1 tablespoon dried parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
• 1/2 teaspoon dry mustard powder
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Several dashes of hot pepper sauce, such as Tabasco

After rinsing and draining, put the beans in the bottom of a large slow cooker (7 to 8 quarts). Place the carrots, celery, and garlic on top of the meat bone, hock, or shank that is nestled in the middle. Add the bay leaves, parsley, celery salt, mustard powder, black pepper, and hot pepper sauce after carefully pouring the chicken stock over the slow cooker’s contents.

The beans should be soft after 7 to 9 hours of cooking on low with a lid on. Take off the hock, shank, and meat bone. Remove any  meat off the bone, shred it, and put it aside. Throw away the bone, along with any cartilage or fat.

Just enough of the soup should be pureed in an immersion blender to give it a creamy smoothness while keeping the majority of the beans whole. Add any more chopped meat you want to add to the soup and stir in the shredded ham (from the bone). Cook until just heated through, a few more minutes.
