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.

This is a modern version of the traditional Indian Jalebi Rabri combo but this includes sliced apples and a yeast based batter. So, make it for your loved ones and give them a treat at home.

We all love raita with our curries and rice dishes. The red bell pepper raita is smoked using a traditional Indian technique called as Dhuni in the state of Himachal Pradesh. The smoking of food process is more or less same in all regions of India but is done with different ingredients and has many names. This is the beauty of Indian cuisine one process done with many different ingredients but the end result is same with different flavor!!
