Moori Laddu (Rice Puff Crisps)
Second week of New Year is the time when large parts of the country are shivering under intense cold waves, the fields are green again and the harvest is beckoning. This time of the year is celebrated with different names in different parts of India (Lohri, Makar Sankranti, Pongal, Uttarayan, Magh Bihu and Poush Sankranti etc.)
Being winter time, sweets made out of jaggery are made and distributed among family and friends. I tried laddus using puffed rice and jaggery and it came out very well.
Vegan Poke Bowl
This bowl is so easy to make, and it’s also great for meal prepping! It’s a perfect lunch with protein, fats, and carbs.
Mango Pudding With Rusk
It’s an easy to make recipe that tastes like Heaven. During summer time, there are many varieties of great tasting mangoes available and we love to enjoy the fruit as well as different recipes from Mango. I tried a quick mango dessert and it tasted super yummy. A quicker version is also described under notes.
Make it on the previous day and the results are satisfying.
Turmeric, Ginger And Garlic Relish
Turmeric, ginger and garlic are considered superfoods and supposed to have multiple health benefits including remedy for digestion, inflammation and viral infections. This recipe of finely chopped ginger, garlic and turmeric seasoned with ghee/ butter and dry spices is not only good for health especially colds and flu but also extremely tasty (though a bit spicy) when taken as a relish or side dish. But then sometimes we need alternatives to spicy pickles.
Lauki Ka Raita
Lauki ka Raita is so good and incredibly easy to make; it takes less than 5 minutes! As the weather is getting warmer, this is a great way to cool down!
