Weekend Mode. a.k.a Depeche Mode!

Was listening to one of my old cds by Depeche Mode hence the title!
As the regulars to this blog already know by now - weekend mode usually begins by Friday - which translates to eating out or getting imports, basically no cooking! This week it started on Thursday.
Today got food from mom's place - Kofta, Bhindi and Daal.


Daal, Bhindi and Kofta curry


My humble contribution to today's meal was the dessert - Cranberry Muffins.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cranberry Muffins
1 1/2 cups chopped frozen cranberries
1 1/4 cups sugar, divided
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 cup milk
1 cup chopped pecans

Rub the cranberries with the 1/4 cup of sugar and keep it aside.  In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and remaining 1 cup sugar. Add the butter and rub the dough till it resembles bread crumbs. Whisk the eggs with milk and then add it to the flour mixture and mix till they are well incorporated. Gently fold in nuts and cranberries. Fill muffin tins two thirds full. Bake at 400° for 20 to 25 minutes.

On that sweet note - Goodnight my sweets! See you all tomorrow!
