Figures & captions

Scale model of the Eiffel tower in Parc Mini-France

HTML doesn't have an element that allows to insert a figure with a caption. It was once proposed (see HTML3), but never made it into HTML4. Here is one way to simulate such a figure element:

 
   height="200" alt="Eiffel tower" />
 
Scale model of the
   Eiffel tower in Parc Mini-France

Then in the style sheet you use the class "figure" to format the figure the way you want. For example, to float the figure to the right, in a space equal to 25% of the width of the surrounding paragraphs, these rules will do the trick:

div.figure {
 float: right;
 width: 25%;
 border: thin silver solid;
 margin: 0.5em;
 padding: 0.5em;
}
div.figure p {
 text-align: center;
 font-style: italic;
 font-size: smaller;
 text-indent: 0;
}

In fact, only the first two declarations (float and width) are essential, the rest is just for decoration.

Bruschetta recipe – Italian Appetizer

Ingredients

* 6 or 7 ripe plum tomatoes (about 1 1/2 lbs)
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
* 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
* 6-8 fresh basil leaves, chopped.
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
* 1 baguette French bread or similar Italian bread
* 1/4 cup olive oil

Method:

1. Prepare the tomatoes first. Parboil the tomatoes for one minute in boiling water that has just been removed from the burner. Drain. Using a sharp small knife, remove the skins of the tomatoes. (If the tomatoes are too hot, you can protect your finger tips by rubbing them with an ice cube between tomatoes.) Once the tomatoes are peeled, cut them in halves or quarters and remove the seeds and juice from their centers. Also cut out and discard the stem area. Why use plum tomatoes instead of regular tomatoes? The skins are much thicker and there are fewer seeds and less juice.

2. Make sure there is a top rack in place in your oven. Turn on the oven to 450°F to preheat.

3. While the oven is heating, chop up the tomatoes finely. Put tomatoes, garlic, 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil, vinegar in a bowl and mix. Add the chopped basil. Add salt and pepper to taste.

4. Slice the baguette on a diagonal about 1/2 inch thick slices. Coat one side of each slice with olive oil using a pastry brush. Place on a cooking sheet, olive oil side down. You will want to toast them in the top rack in your oven, so you may need to do these in batches depending on the size of your oven. Once the oven has reached 450°F, place a tray of bread slices in the oven on the top rack. Toast for 5-6 minutes, until the bread just begins to turn golden brown.
Alternatively, you can toast the bread without coating it in olive oil first. Toast on a griddle for 1 minute on each side. Take a sharp knife and score each slice 3 times. Rub some garlic in the slices and drizzle half a teaspoon of olive oil on each slice. This is the more traditional method of making bruschetta.

5. Align the bread on a serving platter, olive oil side up. Either place the tomato topping in a bowl separately with a spoon for people to serve themselves over the bread, or place some topping on each slice of bread and serve. If you top each slice with the tomatoes, do it right before serving or the bread may get soggy.

CREAM OF TOMATO SOUP

1 pound tomatoes, roughly chopped
1 medium onion, peeled and quartered
1 potato (I used a small russet potato), peeled and quartered
1 large carrot, peeled and roughly chopped
1½ to 2 cups water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons milk
1 to 2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
¼ teaspoon white pepper
Heavy cream
Cilantro

Combine the tomatoes, onion, potato and carrot in a microwave proof deep bowl. Sprinkle with ½ cup water. Cover and microwave on high 8 to 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. (In my oven, this took 15 minutes).

Blend the mixture in a blender (or with a hand blender). Put through a sieve to remove seeds and peel.

Stir the cornstarch into the milk until smooth. Add this to the soup along with the sugar, salt and pepper. Add 1 cup water, or more if needed to thin the soup. Cover and microwave on high 3 to 4 minutes (8 minutes in my oven) until heated through.

Stir well. Ladle into heated bowls and garnish with a swirl of cream and cilantro.

Variations: Season with ½ to 1 teaspoon garam masala. Add canned sweet corn. Garnish with croutons.

Makes 4 servings.

PISTA KHAJA

Mithai khaja is a traditional sweet made with maida and ghee, sometimes stuffed with khoya or dry fruits, deep fried in ghee and then dunked into a fragrant saffron-flavoured sugar syrup. There are different kinds of khaja - depending on the stuffing. There's malai khaja, mawa khaja, pista khaja etc.


Makes 8.

Ingredients

32 thin samosa pattis cut into 3" x 2 ½" pieces

For the filling

¾ cup pistachios, blanched; ¼ cup sugar, ½ teaspoon cardamom powder

For the sugar syrup

½ cup sugar, a few strands saffron, ¼ teaspoon lemon juice

Other ingredients

oil for deep frying paste of 1 tablespoon plain flour (maida) mixed with 2 tablespoon water

For the filling

1. Peel and dry the pistachios on a tea towel. 2. Grind the sugar and pistachios in a blender coarsely. 3. Place this mixture in a saucepan, sprinkle a few drops of water and heat over a gentle flame till the mixture is cooked and leaves the sides of the pan. Add the cardamom powder and mix well. 4. Cool and divide the mixture into 8 equal parts.

For the sugar syrup

1. Dissolve the sugar with half a cup of water and simmer for 5 minutes till the syrup is of 1-string consistency. 2. Add the saffron and lemon juice and mix. 3. Remove from the fire and keep warm.

How to proceed

1. Place a portion of the pistachio filling in the centre of one samosa patti. 2. Apply the flour paste on the samosa patti around the filling, taking care to leave the edges dry, so that the layers separate while the khaja is being fried. 3. Place another samosa patti on top and press gently around the filling in order to stick the two pattis together. Apply a little flour paste in the centre of the stuffed khaja and stick another samosa patti. Turn it around and stick one more patti on 4. Deep fry in hot oil until golden in colour. Drain on absorbent paper. 5. Transfer the khajas into the warm sugar syrup. Drain on a metal rack to allow the excess syrup to drain.

Method
1. Lightly grease a 23cm/9inch loose-bottomed round cake tin. Cut a strip of non-stick baking parchment to fit around the sides of the tin, fold the bottom edge of the strip up by about 2.5cm/1inch creasing it firmly, then open out the fold and cut slanting lines into this narrow strip at intervals. Fit this into the greased tin with the snipped edge in the base of the tin and put a circle of non-stick baking parchment on top.
2. Preheat the oven to 160C/325F/Gas 3.
3. Put the digestive biscuits into a polythene bag and crush the biscuits with a rolling pin. Melt the butter in a medium pan; add the crushed biscuits and demerara sugar.
4. Mix well, spread over the base of the tin and press firmly with the back of a metal spoon. Leave in a cool place to set whilst mixing the cheesecake.
5. For the cheesecake, measure the butter, sugar, cheese, flour, lemon rind and juice and egg yolks into a large bowl and beat well until smooth.
6. Fold the lightly whipped double cream into the mixture using a plastic spatula or large metal spoon.
7. Whisk the egg whites with a hand held electric mixer until stiff but not dry and fold into the mixture.
8. Pour on to the biscuit base and gently level the surface with a plastic spatula.
9. Bake in the preheated oven for about 1/1¼ hours or until set.
10. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for a further one hour to cool.
11. Run a small palette knife around the edge of the tin to loosen the cheesecake then push the base up through the cake tin.
12. Remove the side paper and put the cheesecake on to a serving plate.
13. Spread the lightly whipped cream in the dip of the cheesecake and scatter the fruits haphazardly on top. Lightly dust with icing sugar if wished.
