TIRAMISU Recipe
This is one of the best recipe for Tiramisu i have been following.can be served in martini glass or chocolate cups or a small bowl.i normally change it a little bit when i am working it for my Indian clientele by displacing the meringue with whipped cream with a simple reason being egg white giving a scare of bacteria(salmonella).

Ingredients
| Mascarpone cheese | 500 Gram | |
| Egg yolk | 1 | |
| Egg white | 1 | |
| Sugar breakfast :175 gms | ||
| Ladyfingers pieces | 2 | |
| Strong italian coffee :as per ur tasTE | ||
Directions
1.Cream together mascarpone cheese with the egg yolk.
2.Do thick meringue with egg white and the breakfast sugar.
3.Fold in the meringue in the mascarpone mix.
4.Soak lady finger in the strong coffee.
5.Serve it in a glass with a base of soaked lady fingers and topping with the tiramisu mix.
6.Chill it in a refrigerator and dust with bitter cocoa powder or can also try with coffee powder.
7.Garnish with strips of lady finger or tuilee wafers or even shaved chocolate flakes.

I started laughing Snigdha hadn't even thought of those lady fingers i.e. bindi oh dear that would be a ghastly recipe using them in place of pastry type lady fingers.
Here is a photo & description & recipe for ladyfingers

Hey Nisha...the ladyfingers used in Tiramisu are not the vegetable okra/bindi/bendakaya. These lady fingers are a bakery product and used instead of sponge cake (pan de spagna) also ladyfingers are sometimes called sponge fingers, but most bakeries should be able to help you find ladyfingers for making tiramisu. Another thing, if you find it difficult to get mascarpone, then a decent substitution for it is 'cream cheese'. In case you do not get kahlua or Marsala, then a Baileys (coffee liqueur) is also good enough.

Niklesh, I must say that your presentation and picture is world class. You should think about recording the decoration process and sharing with our community. I have a feeling it will be a big viral hit.
Are all the decoration items edible?

It appears that not only Indian Prime Ministers love Italian sweeties but also Indian Chefs love Italian sweets.

This is interesting. Chef Hari also has a Tiramisu recipe at http://www.ifood.tv/node/1272.
You mentioned that it is a classic Italian dessert then why have you classified it is an American. Just to make it clear Italian food is probably the most popular food in America.
It will be fun to try Indian made Tiramisu by Chef Sharma and USA made Tiramisu by Chef Nayak at the same time.

HI
tiramisu is a classic italian dessert.as far as putting itin american category is concerned ....i believe i have to get better aquanted with the system while putting it on net.......my mistake.....
classic always remain classic because they never change with the time...the change that can happen in its recipes,portion and style of presentation very well depend on a chefs creativity and style.
there is nothing as indian tiramisu but since adding raw maringue is still not considered safe for consumption because of salmonella we try to substitute it with whipped cream.though it can be done using an italian meringue but looking at the prefernce of my guest...i don,t prefer it......no offenece....but i remember one italian chef trying the raw egg meringue in my pastry but finally gave looking at the final taste.
if u get pasteurised egg white...thats the best thing
also cuisines has nothing to do with the origin of chef.......its all about exposure and training
culinary regards

niklesh sharma says :
hi nisha
mascarpone cannot be substituted.and its available at any of the superstore.
coffee can be substitutes with normal coffee.take coffee and little water and give it a boil.that decoction can be thinned with some sugar syrup.
it can also be flavoured with kahlua or marsala( both these are coffee liqeurs.
breakfast sugar is castor sugar ....more finer then normal grain sugar......available at super store..
thanks
