Gudi Padva Special Batasha ( Gathi chi maal )

Gudi Padwa, Padva or Chaitra Shukla Pratipada is one of the most celebrated festivals especially in the Indian state of Maharashtra. It celebrates the beginning of the traditional Hindu year. The Gudi is observed at the entrance of Maharashtrain households. So what is it? A Gudi is a stick covered in a bright cloth adorned with brocade or zari that has been topped with Batasha (Gadthi chi maal), neem leaves, twig of mango leaves and a garland of red flowers. This is covered by a silver or copper pot in an inverted position. Normally in India we can buy batasha from any grocery store. When I checked for Batashe in the Indian stores….They were available packed in plastic packets. However on checking carefully, I noticed that more than half of Batashe were crumbled in the container!! I dropped the idea of buying them. Instead decided to make them at home. Battasha: Preparation Time: 5 mins Cooking Time: 10 mins Ingredients: Suga...

Summer Special: Kesar Pista Rabdi Kulfi

Kulfi is undoubtedly my most favorite Indian desert, Kulfi was traditionally prepared by evaporating sweetened and flavored milk via slow cooking, until its volume was reduced by a quatar, thus thickening it, The result you get is lacha rabdi texture and believe me it tastes heavenly all by itself . With some flavor added to it, you can serve it cold or hot as rabdi . Kulfi has similarities to ice cream in appearance and taste; however it is denser and creamier. It comes in various flavours. The more traditional ones are malai, rabdi , rose, mango, cardamom (elaichi), saffron (kesar or zafran), and pistachio. Unlike Western ice creams, kulfi is not whipped, resulting in a solid, dense frozen dessert similar to traditional custard based ice cream. Thus, it is sometimes considered a distinct category of frozen dairy-based dessert.Due to its density, kulfi takes a longer time to melt than Western ice-cream. So basically kulfi is nothing but thickened ...

Mushroom Spaghetti with Garlic Tomato Sauce

For me pasta is spaghetti. Of course I like the others as well, but spaghetti is special for me. E ating pasta without a sauce is like having a burger without ketchup and mayo. It still tastes well, but you closely miss a feast! Using canned pasta sauce has become so popular recently. Besides being practical, they are also cheap and time saving, but they never taste like homema de sauce. For my tomato mushroom spaghetti sauce, I used some onion, garlic and dried basil to make the taste of tomato and mushroom richer. You know, garlic is an incredible ingredient for any recipe, especially for the sauce recipes. I had added corn kernels in to it because i like little sweet bite in pasta. It was no different for this one, the moment I added it to the pan, our kitchen was filled with that irresistible smell. Eating spaghetti is enjoyable, it is extremely yummy, the cost is almost nothing, and the best of all, the kids like it. Mushroom Spaghetti with Garlic Tomato Sa...
