Coriander Chutney Raita

 Guys, making a "raita" is simple: just mix the ingredients, refrigerate, and serve as a accompaniment with your dish you are serving. The beautiful part of raita is it's  freshness, carrying a "just made and refrigerated" sign! However, a good balance of taste needs to be maintained throughout, and to do that, you have to keep tasting and make the measurements as per your taste. The recipe we will be sharing today is a raita combined with none other than a coriander chutney. Make sure you use fresh yogurt, fresh coriander and fresh garlic for a better taste. You can enjoy it with a hot paratha, naan or enjoy it as quick evening snack- after all , it is healthy and good for diet! Happy Feasts to you all!

Chowmein ---Special lunchbox Recipe (This time it's CHINESE!)

I remember when I was in my school days, my mom used to pack our lunch boxes, and I use to groan at my everyday home-food tiffin packed, thinking about the day when my mom will give me some money so that I can buy food from our school cafeteria. Today I am a grown up, my mom doesn’t pack my lunch boxes, I am not in my school days, and now, I constantly groan at my canteen’s food, missing my special home-made lunch boxes prepared with so much love from mom. It’s funny how our perspectives change with time. Who thought I will be sharing a recipe someday on lunch boxes for kids, who will groan looking at the tiffin like I used to do when I was a child! Funny, how things work out with time. Hope you enjoy this recipe, and have it as a tiffin, lunch, family meal, and evening accompaniments -whichever you like. Because it’s CHOWMEIN I am talking about. A recipe loved by all, usually great for family gatherings. Hope you will enjoy it and Happy Feasts to you all!



Baked Chocolate Coated Donuts --- A healthier way to live life!

Guys. it's time we say "NO" to deep-fried donuts! Seems unbelievable, right? Can a donut be baked? Hell, yes! Not only that, but it would be that fluffy, but soft in light golden brown texture. You will soon agree to the fact that healthy food can be tastier than unhealthy ones once you have made and tasted this recipe of ours. You can just dust it with icing sugar, if you want so, but I coated it in melted chocolate and used colored sprinkles on the top to decorate. Plus, it can be a very good lunch box for you kids as well! Happy Feasts to you all, and enjoy!
