#besan #besanmethiachariparathaBreakfast for a dear friend.The addition of achari masala.Instead of Methi I added fresh kale from my garden as it is healthier.
The occasion is Ganesh Chathurthi. Ganesha loves modaks and laddoos.The addition of almonds is great.I add half powdered and half regular sugar to get a crunchy taste
#besan #MirchipakodaWhen it is raining Mirchi Pakoda is the best snackI liked the detailed recipe.My recipe has rice flour added to besan to make it crisper.To lessen the hotness of the chilli I soak them in buttermilk for a couple of hours.
#besan #besansoojihalwaHalwa doesn't need any occasion actually but besan halwa is made in my house when there are runny noses and cold.The recipe seems like a tried and tested one and turned out great.My mom used to say besan is good for cold.I added kesar which is also good for colds.
I like to snack a lot as I have a salt tooth. I stay away from sweets.I need to eat healthy so instead of frying the besan coated peanuts, I baked them and I have them daily with my green tea.Peanuts are good for us but they should be eaten in a healthy way.
The use of a packet of buttermilk never occurred to me. That's a brilliant idea.I like palak pakoda in my kadhi and whats what I made.The occasion was happy no reason at all for my tummy. I love kadhi and made it just for myself.
