can we substitute refined oil for butter to make it more healthy? will it affect the texture?

Hi Maria…how are you? i have been on vacation for a while now n’ hence my absence…hope all is well at ur end….i had a small query….i want to mince meat at home rather than buy it ready n’ i don’t have a traditional meat mincer…can i mince meat in the mixer grinder?? hv you ever tried this? pls help…
Hi Miriam,
am fine dear. Hope you had a great vacation.
I usually cook the meat first and then mince it. I haven’t minced the raw meat yet.
You can mince the cooked meat in a mixie or food processor.
Hope this helps…

Thanks a lot for your kind words :)
I’ve posted a fish roll recipe sometime back. Please check it here: https://mariasmenu.com/spicy/fish-rolls
I think its almost similar to the rolls that you get in Kerala bakeries. You can substitute fish with chicken or beef.
Take care
Maria
These looks sooo tempting Maria. Love them.
Hi Sarika
Thanks a lot for visiting my blog and for your sweet words :).
I think you dont have to beat the dough for a long time, but make sure that it doesnt have any lumps. Yes it has to be a soft dough. Please let me know your comments after trying this.
Maria do we need to beat the pastry/roll dough for a long time just as it is done for bread or puffs? Does it need to be a soft dough like the one we make for chappatis? Please write back to me, because I love baking & would definately want to try this one. I’m waiting for a speedy reple from your side.Thanks in advance.By the way the photographs of the dishes u make look very very good & appetizing!!
