#jaggery
Achwani for new born baby mother. I remember those days when I was in hospital and alina my new born baby girl was in my arms. My mother in law made this healthy recipe for me at that time. I’ll talk a bit about “Achwani”, which is a healthy and nutritious sweet concoction of dry fruits taken with milk consumed by new mothers after giving birth. You can store this in refrigerator for 15days but best way is to eat on the spot.
