Suji Halva with Coffee ( Indian Semolina Pudding with Coffee)
Suji halva is staple dessert in Indian homes; we make it on auspicious days, a quick dessert, as an offering in temples, on a rainy or a cold day or just without any reason as it’s the easiest and the quickest sweet treat!! In this recipe I have made a twist to the traditional recipe, I added brewed filter coffee. The coffee gives the halva a distinct nuttiness and lifts up the caramelized taste of the halva.
Low Carb Fish Cakes with Cucumber onion salad
Fish cakes are one of the easiest meals or even starters in my kitchen. They are so easy to cook and have versatile flavor profiles.The texture of the fish cakes is soft inside and crispy from outside. Relish it as a starter with a dipping sauce or mayonnaise or a part of main meal with some flat breads or steamed rice.I have made these fish cakes keeping in mind the low carbs and gluten free rule. The fish cakes are ketogenic, paleo,gluten free and low carb.
Split Bengal Gram and Rice Khichdi ( One pot rice dish with lentils )
Khichdi is one pot meal. It is very nutritious and wholesome meal. This is a gluten free, almost vegan (skip the ghee and add coconut oil), light on stomach; can be made in a jiff.On a regular day, for a change from regular dahl rice or curry and chapatti, split gram lentil with lots of aromatics and spices was the meal, accompanied by yoghurt, a dollop of ghee, pickle and lizzat papad, blissful and a complete meal. Few auspicious days also had special recipe for khichdi. So, for me khichdi always has been a special meal instead of a boring food for the sick.
