Spiderman Cake for my son...

From home to home, and heart to heart, from one place to another. The warmth and joy of Christmas brings us closer to each other.

The very first day of December brings so much joy in our family......10 years ago on December 1st our son was born....my very own Christmas gift.

My son wanted a Spiderman cake for his birthday, he has been wanting that for such a long time and I promised him that I will make one for him, but even when I promised him I had no idea 'how' I will make it. No idea at all. Anyways, I thought I will give it a try seeing his enthusiasm....he even proclaimed to his friends and family that "amma is going to make a spiderman cake for my birthday"....and honestly I dint have a clue on HOW TO....


So I started googling and somehow got a raw idea of what I should do....I went colour hunting and could only get raspberry red and could not find black colour at all....so I decided to go ahead with raspberry red and chocolate brown (I also added some cocoa powder to the icing). Made butter icing for the face and piped cocoa/chocolate brown icing on the face. I am not good at icing...but here is what I got after TRYING!

Spiderman verses Birthday boy!!

I made never fail cake and used butter icing.

Pidiyum Kozhiyum Recipe - How To Make Kerala Style Kozhi Pidi - Kerala Recipes

Pidiyum kozhiyum or kottayam style pidi is a traditional knanaya cuisine ; these rice dumpling have a thick gravy like sauce, unlike the dry versions of Malabar kakka roti or kozhi pidi. Knanaya style pidi is served with varutharacha kozhi curry. Traditionally, pidi is associated with baby shower ie when the daughter-in-law is sent to her parents house for delivery, it is customary for the mother-in-law to make kozhi pidi and we knanaya people still follow these traditions. My main aim is to preserve this recipe; so that the future generations can enjoy this wholesome dish. Pidi is rice dumplings which is simmered in water along with shallots, garlic, curry leaves, and coriander seeds; but I have used coriander powder instead to make the whole process easy. Amma mentioned that if using coriander seeds then; the water used to mix the rice flour should be sieved and that using fresh roasted coriander powder saves time. I have made a video recipe and I hope this you help
