Hi your site is lovely. I am Mauritian living in the UK. My mum loves a special semolina type grainy ball cake. (not laddu or halwa) it crumbles and grainy like sand packed tight into a ball with a bit of elaichi. Don’t know what the name is. They give it at weddings sometimes. Do you know what it is called and if possible get the recipe from somewhere? Many thanks. Wahida

hi wahida i’ve heard about the ‘semolina type grainy ball cake’ but have absolutely no clue how to make it. will have to do some research and possibly blog about it later. tc

hello jimmy what is a “jam fancies” cake?
January 13, 2011 at 9:59 am
Joelle
Hi
I think you are looking for ounde…
Its boil water, sugar with cinnamon pieces and crushed elaiti for abt 15-20 min to get the elaiti and cinamon taste..once its boiled take out the cinamon pieces n elaiti…
then in a hot dry pan put the semolina and grill it until it turns light brownish color ( be careful it can burn easily) . Once its brownish… add in the boiled mixture slowly till all the semolina can stick together.. then you can add some raisins in.. when its half cold shape it into balls and rub into shredded coconut.. you can also put it in a plate and let it shape and cut it into smaller pieces..

Hi there,
I love your blog!! I keep checking every week for new recipes 🙂
Would you, by any chance, have the ‘gulab jamun’ recipe? I have tried looking for it on the internet but they give the rasgulla recipe instead..I think in india they call our mauritian rasgulla gulab jamun..
I want to try make gulab jamun this Diwali..
If you have the recipe, please share it..
Thanks!!
Keep rocking in the kitchen 😉

This site is amazing. I love cooking and my family and Australian husband absolutely love muritian cooking. There are a few recipes that i am after. One is the gateau genoise and the other one is this sweet that is served at muslim’s weddings. It is sort of like a vermicelli and its white. Does anyone know what im talking about? If you could get your hands on those recipes it would be greatly appreciated.
Your doing a great job…. keep it up!
Mary-Jane from Australia!

hello shab! thanks for the suggestion. i love to cook, not as much as baking, but i do like to give it try now and then. btw u do have mauritian food blogs featuring mains dishes and sides – http://www.mijorecipes.com/, http://carine-olivia.com/blog/ and http://ile-maurice.tripod.com/ are good examples.

hi prerrnemirchi
I’m yusra i tried your gulab jamun recipes but i wanted to cnfirm whether the gulab jamun should completely absorbed the syrup or it should be soaked for only a few minutes ?
January 26, 2012 at 2:20 pm
prerrnamirchi
hey yusra! it all depends on how sweet u want them to be, some like them to be sweet and syrupy and therefore soak them for a longer time. I prefer mine to be soft and moderately sweet so I usually dunk them for only few minutes.
February 14, 2012 at 7:18 am

hii, i tried some bread recipes for ramadan however the dough did not came out so well thus i wanted to ask you where i could find a bread machine like yours, thanks for your reply
July 29, 2012 at 1:50 am
prerrnamirchi
Hello Yusra, I’m sorry to hear that you’ve been having problems with bread dough. Please let me know what went wrong exactly and which recipe u used so that I can help u further. I do not have a bread machine but I occasionally use my food processor [dough hook attachment] for mixing. It’s an old Braun model I bought in Kalachand years back and is still serving me faithfully. Good luck dear!
July 31, 2012 at 5:20 pm
yusra
Thanks for your reply dear , it was the naan recipe and I think next time i will use my hand mixer for the dough but I wanted to confirm with you if the spiral attachment would be suitable for bread dough
August 1, 2012 at 1:53 pm
prerrnamirchi
hi i dnt own a hand mixer so i wnt be the best person to advise u abt which attachment to use for bread dough. it is an easy recipe to do by hand though, i did not use any machine to process this one and it worked fine. maybe ur second attempt will be more successful 🙂

hi. I am foreigner and I wanted to try some mauritian recipes however its very difficult to find corn syrup in mauritius.Can you please tell me where to find it
August 18, 2012 at 1:28 pm
prerrnamirchi
Hello Naz, I dnt think u can find corn syrup over here, I have not seen it myself so far. Substitues you may use are glucose syrup and golden syrup found in all major supermarkets. Good luck!

hi my friend , how r u sorry for disturbing you , it was my son birthday and for the first time i bought a birthday cake in mauritius and the buttercream was too good , i wanted to try your angel food cake with a buttercream frosting , please if you have any buttercream recipe can you post it, since I’m in mauritius i ‘m relying on your recipes the most i hope you won’t mind
September 19, 2012 at 6:19 pm
prerrnamirchi
hello naz, thanks for ur interest in the blog. the angel cake is a lovely choice but I would recommend that u serve it with freshly whipped cream or a fruit coulis. Buttercream might be too heavy and sweet and will not pair nicely with the light, airy texture of this sponge-like cake. However if u still want to go along with the buttercream, I think swiss meringue buttercream would work well. It’s a step ahead of the classic buttercream both in terms of effort and taste. Since I have no immediate plans to make or write about buttercream in the near future I’d like to direct you to one of the best recipes I have found online: http://www.mandymortimer.com/vanilla-cupcakes/vanilla-cupcakes-with-vanilla-swiss-buttercream.html. Hope it works for u!

Hello, I think I have come across your lovely blog a couple of times in the midst of looking for new recipes. I do have a question though, and with limited internet time for myself ( 😦 ), am having some difficulty…. Would you please be able to point me in the direction of a Mauritian cake that I may make for a friend of mine, as a surprise for her very-shortly-coming-up birthday? It would be most appreciated.
May 14, 2013 at 6:42 pm

Hi Annette, I have lotsa cakes tagged as ‘Mauritian’. If you could give me specifics as to which type of cake you’re looking for, it’d be easier for me to direct u towards a particular recipe. For now I’d suggest Puits d’Amour [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2012/03/12/beloved-country-god-bless-thee/], Maspin Greo [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2012/10/02/maspin-greo-ek-poudine-sago/] or Gato Carre Rouge [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2013/04/28/gato-carre-rouge/].

prerrnamirchi

July 13, 2013 at 12:17 pm
sandhya
its either square or rectangular in shape. its of the same family as the mauritian gulab jamun.n basically the ingredients r flour, baking powder, and syrup among ozers.
July 13, 2013 at 1:52 pm
prerrnamirchi
ok will ask around and try to find a decent recipe that I can experiment with at home before I post it here 🙂

Hi, I think what Sandhya is saying is ‘Ghatiya.’
I know about that cake.. its either rectangular or square.. people usually make these during wedding.. like when doing prayer before the wedding.. I actually don’t know the exact recipe but I know what you talking about.. Would really help if I happen to come across the recipe.

Hi, I just came across your site and you have great recipes. Will definitely try them. Could you please help with buttermilk? From where do you buy it? If you prepare it yourself, then how? Thanks in advance & Bonne continuation.
July 25, 2013 at 9:02 pm
prerrnamirchi
hello tass, I substitute buttermilk by either yogurt of milk curdled with either white vinegar or lemon juice depending on the recipe. It usually works out fine for me 🙂

Hi P,
From where do you buy the ‘ cream of tartar’?
I don’t remember having seen that anywhere.
Also thanks for finding time to reply to all your food lovers in spite of your busy schedule.

Hello Tass, I bought the cream of tartar at shoprite, it is sold in small sachets in the baking section next to baking soda and Epsom salts. The brand was Robertson and I think it costs less than Rs10/sachet. Hope this helps!

Hello Prerrna. I need your help/advice. My husbands mother and grandmother are Maurutian and I would like to make them something special this Christmas. I want to make something (or multiple ‘somethings’) that remind them of home. Can you please give me some suggestions?? Sweet or savory I don’t mind.
I just don’t know enough about Maurutian cuisine to think of what to do and I’m hoping you can help. 🙂
Many thanks in advance, Vanessa.
November 21, 2013 at 5:12 pm

Hello Vanessa! so nice of you to be making some Mauritian dishes for Christmas. Our local cuisine is a jumble of so many cultures but if you want typical ones, then you should try these:
1. gato pima [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2010/03/03/gato-pima/]
2. tarte banana [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2010/03/04/tarte-a-la-banane-recette-mauricienne/]
3. bouillon cresson & satini pistas [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2010/03/07/bouillon-cresson-satini-pistas/]
4. napolitaines [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2010/03/11/sweet-is-thy-napolitaine/]
5. alouda [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2010/03/17/alouda-so-delicious-so-mauritius/]
6. poudine manioc [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2011/03/12/national-day-2011-nou-moris-nou-fierte/]
7. bol renverser [https://inspiredtobake.wordpress.com/2010/05/05/bol-renverse-and-mms-cookies/]

Hi Prerna,
Wish you and your family a Happy New Year 2014.
Btw..it seems that your recipe index is not updated with the delicious recipes u posted recently. It’s easier to search from the index rather than each time looking for older posts.. just a kind suggestion if you have time to do so coz I really like your blog 🙂
Kind regards, Tass.

Hi Prerna, hope you are fine. Do you have a nice recipe for a chocolate sponge or genoise cake? Or else recommend one? It’s a birthday cake that I need for Sunday. I saw your genoise aux fruits.. Or can I use same recipe just adding cocoa powder to it?
Thanks.

Hey Prerrna.. it’s me again..sorry I forgot to mention that it’s my lil boy’s 2nd birthday. So please guide me about something that will be nice to make for this occasion.. btw i was just now having a look at your ferrero rocher cake. Please advise something for this special day of my baby. Thanks again.Tass.
January 24, 2014 at 6:08 pm
prerrnamirchi
Hi Tass, sorry I do not have a proper chocolate sponge cake on the blog. Need to make up for that soon. For now I suggest that you try this one: http://www.aww.com.au/food/recipes/2012/3/chocolate-sponge-with-coffee-icing/. If you do not like the icing, simply replace it with chocolate ganache. The Ferrero cake is also a nice though more sophisticated cake which I would not advise for a birthday party esp if you do not know whether your guests have nut allergy. Better go for a simple sponge and go crazy with the decorations. Wishing your little boy a very happy birthday!
January 24, 2014 at 7:29 pm
tass
Thank you so much Prrerna. I will go for your suggested genoise.. do you think it’s a good idea if i put some syrup on the sponge to moisten it a little? And a big yes to the chocolate ganache. Also thanks for your kind wishes. Tass.
January 25, 2014 at 6:53 am
prerrnamirchi
sure you can use a simple syrup of 1 part sugar and 1 part water and flavour it with vanilla bean if you wish, easiest way to keep the sponge moist and yummy. You can even split the cake into layers if you want to make a big cake. Sandwich them with whipping cream, cover with ganache and enjoy!

Hey Prerna, I had a sudden wish for Bouillon mee foon. I would be interested to try out your version if you have any tips? What “brede” would you put in there? Here I would get pak choi, but I can’t remember what the proper one is…

I’d made dholl puri last night. following your recipe…it turned out great. This time they all puffed so nicely and when you break them the dholl just sprinkled on the plate…I think the secret lies in the 1 tbs oil mix with water…Before my husband teased me for the awful dholl puri I made and I always put the blame on the flour ,saying “we don’t have la farine Australie in the Uk” but last night he said” aster tone gagne la main mo mama”. Thank you so much…These recipes bring memories of my childhood and long lostt events associated with some dishes…and make me so homesick. Thanks again.You are AWESOME!!!!

Hi Prerrna
Want to try the idli..as it’s quite healthy..but can i use the electric steamer ?And need to go to another town for powdered milk,can I use liquid milk instead?
Thank you
Reply
December 22, 2014 at 10:37 pm
prerrnamirchi
hi I think u can use liquid milk in this recipe since the batter is pretty liquid itself. Not sure about the amount though, it needs to reach a consistency a bit thicker than you can pour. The electric steamer should work fine. Do let me know how it turns out. Cheers!

Hi I tried the macatia it came out lovely…but the only thing is the coconut filling inside came out dry so we added butter to the hot buns, it was delicious. Next time I think I need to add more sugar and a little more water.Also the cooking time took less than 20 mins…it was ready in around 14 mins..luckily I checked. Thank you so much.You are an angel.

Hi Prerna I made gato cravats today. It was a disaster. It was not like I used to buy when I was small. I did not put any aginomoto because I think it’s lethal for me. It makes one drinks gallons of water.do you have to rest it to get the gluten working. It did not mention in your receipe. I shall try kaja next. It’s my husband favourite when he was in Mauritis.however thanks for the reveipe.

Hi.. i had a question. Infact i wanted to ask for your red velvet where can we get red food color in mauritius? I have looked everywhere and can get only crimson pink. And we we do not get the food color, what alternative can i use?thanks
November 8, 2017 at 4:29 am
prerrnamirchi
HI Nishta thanks for writing. It reminds me that I have not baked a red velvet cake for ages! For the red colour, I use Wilton’s gel food coloring which you may find at NuzNai Trading, Rose Hill. [http://www.wilton.com/icing-color/pg_icingColors.html?dwvar_pg__icingColors_color=Red-Red#start=1] It is more expensive than the traditional liquid colouring from supermarkets but you will use it for a long time as only a small amount will give excellent results.
