Goa is a mix of east meets west, this in not only represented in their culture but also in their cooking style. The traditional way of cooking is still very alive today. If you visit any rural area, the locals can be seen cooking in clay pots on firewood. Although modern conveniences are available, this food preparation is preferred as it adds an additional smoky flavour to the any goan dish. The degree of heat varies amongst goan recipes from mild to positively explosive.
Goans have a miscellaneous platter ranging from prawns to sausages, chicken to beef, and numerous vegetarian dishes. Goa's broad sweep of unique cooking approach is the consequence of historical events such as the invasion of the Portuguese. Consequently goan cuisine is influenced by the religions of Christianity and Hinduism. Over time the cooking methods have been blended together and allowed to simmer producing an authentic selection of delicacies. There is a common tread in both religions. They equally emphasise on serving food that is not only tasteful but fresh. Presentation is paramount for goans as they often share their food, especially during feasts where food is distributed amongst neighbours.
There has never been a better time to discover or extend your repertoire of goan recipes and this website is a good place to start.
Mango Mousse Cake
1 Using your hand separate the egg yolks and whites as shown the image below. Using an egg beater, whip the egg whites till they are frosty and there is no liquid left in the bowl.
2 In a larger bowl, add the whip cream and using the egg beater whip the cream till soft peaks appear. Add the beaten egg whites and beat the cream till it is thick.
3 Slowly start folding the mango pulp in the cream. Add one tablespoon at a time so that it mixes well. (I don't add sugar since alphonso mangoes are really sweet). Keep beating for about 10 minutes till a thick mix it formed.
4 Add the gelatin or agar powder and mix well.
5 Cut of the edges of the pound cake and cut into small pieces to form the base. pour the mousse into the glass/bowl and let it set for about 2 hours. For garnish, I used mango chunks, grated white chocolate and mint.
Guavacheese is a classic Goan festive sweet!
Guavacheese is also known as Perad and Goia-bada in Portuguese. One of the most famous sweet from Goa. I love guavacheese but loved the home version. As you could make how much you want. The guavas and lime flavor compliments each other it’s like match made in heaven. This dessert tastes sweet and sour both ;)
What’s Guavacheese? It’s a dessert made from Guavas, Sugar and lime juice. In some countries it’s also referred to as Romeo Juliet. Guavacheese is used as a spread on toast and some served with pastries. It’s a simple recipe made with basic ingredients found in kitchen.
I will come up with more authentic Goan recipes for Christmas. Love Goan food especially coastal food preparation and also the sweets which are less popular. I have already tried Goan Dodol, Rose Cookies, Goan Neuris, Doce De Grao and Eggless Baath Cake.
For this recipe you will have to select the soft Guavas not the one with hard skin. Further you will have to blanch them in hot water Or boil them until it gets tender. Later remove their seeds with the help of a spoon Or finger. The secret to this recipe is there should not be a single guava seed else it will come in your mouth while eating.
