What I think:
So I ended up buying those 3 produts from Shanti, besides the asafoetida - oh, I also bought a packet of organic millet flakes.
Moving on to Shana!! I bough 2 tops from the Birkirkara outlet. There's also a smaller shop in Rahal Gdid.
Website: www.shana.com
- Sleeve-less sheer star blouse : I fell in love with this top the instant I saw it. There will be an opening party next Saturday, and will probably buy the black version as well . . . . So this is an example of how I would wear it. Jeans are from Peacocks. Shoes are from Debenhams and bag is from ebay (received it yesterday - I love it!!)
- Long comfy top : As soon as I saw it, I pictured me wearing it with leggings. So comortable. Also available in other colours. Leggings from Accessorize, boots from New Look.
I took my new favourite vegetarian cook book (Kitchen of Love - Dada Shantimaya) with me in the car so I can see which dessert too cook. I decided to make the banana cake!! I love bananas!!
Here's what you need to make it:
- 4 ripe bananas - mashes
- 2 cups flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup oil
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
First, pre-heat oven to 180 degrees.
In a bowl, combine flour , baking soda and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together sugar and oil.Then add the bananas.Add water and vanilla.
Now, add the flour mixture to the second mixture and stir.
Then empty in a greased and floured baking tray and bake for 45 - 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean
and FINALLY:
It's sooooo good ;)
