Cherry and Nuts Brown Rice Kheer




Dried fruit is fruit from which the majority of the original water content has been removed either naturally, through sun drying, or through the use of specialized dryers or dehydrators. It is a known fact that dry fruits and nuts are packed with essential nutrients. Though available in small packages, they are an abundant source of proteins, vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber. Right from skin benefits to medicinal benefits. With high iron levels, dry fruits like raisins, and apricots are essentials to fight or prevent anemia. Dry fruits have optimal levels of vitamins and minerals, and are a natural solution for weight management. There are so many delicious recipes which we can make from dried fruits, But Kheer is all time favorite for me and family. Kheer is a rice pudding from the cuisine of the Indian Subcontinent, made by boiling rice, Broken wheat, tapioca, or vermicelli with milk and sugar; it is flavored with cardamom, raisins, saffron, cashews, pistachios or almonds. It is typically served during a meal or as a dessert. 

Kheer is prepared in festivals, temples, and all special occasions. It is often garnished using almonds, cashews, raisins and pistachios. It is an essential dish in many Hindu feasts and celebrations. While the dish is most often made with rice, it can also be made with other ingredients, such as vermicelli. This Kheer is different from the regular version. It contains Dry fruits, and Sweet fruit crush, Which I have decided to take cherry. Yeah, You reading it right, Its Cherry :) Well, Here in Doha, I can easily get Cherry crush in small and big both the bottles, Its sweet and so so delicious, Sometimes I simply spread on my Bread, roll it and I enjoy it ...Ahhh, I am writing it and felling like to have it right away...Well, will get it after finishing my this post, ;) 


One more thing is interesting for this kheer is, The Rice which I have used are Brown one. They are Brown Rice, So its healthy too. and this rice are bit big grain. so when I was making this Kheer, When they turned soft, They are well cooked and so delicious with boiled milk. We enjoyed this delicious Cherry and nuts kheer in our dinner tonight and yeah we loved it. Addition of Nuts will make this kheer rich and more more delicious.

Dahi Vada



Dahi Vada, A very popular and all time favorite snack food which is so so delicious and mouthwatering. I am a diehard fan of Dahi Vada or Dahi bhalla, I mean every indian love to have this Dahi vada...That delicious Tamarind chutney, hint of chili powder, Loads of beaten Yogurt, Ohhh Hence, My Dahi Vadas are over but still I can feel that taste in my mouth...Feeling like Did I make a less Quanity of them?? Or I should soak more Urad dal to make more batches of these Vadas. Well, Though I made 2 plates each for me and Himanshu...small one for Prisha....But the measurement went wrong, Prisha had big wh
ole plate of this Dahi Vadas without chili powder, and she enjoyed it a lot...Yesterday Night I was asking her what you want to have in your lunch box for tomorrow....And she said, Mom I want to have that round round balls with that mithi mithi chutney... ;) Lol...She didnt remember the name of the dish...But she knows that she ate that one and she wants that only ....Hahahaa...I told her that you cant take it in your lunch box, you will not be able to eat that in school...And she was lil upset with me and, She kept up her one eyebrow and showing me Tashan...;) I told her I will make it for you tomorrow. and after lots pampering drama she was Ok with that ;) 


The hot deep fried vadas are first put in water and then transferred to thick beaten yogurt. For best results, the Vadas are soaked for at least a couple of hours before serving. To add more flavor, they may be topped with coriander or mint leaves, chili powder, crushed black pepper, chaat masala, cumin, shredded coconut, green chilis or boondi. Sweeter curd is preferred in some places in India, especially in Maharashtra and Gujarat, although the garnishing remains the same. A combination of coriander and tamarind chutneys are often used as garnishments in addition to those mentioned above.


Many times it happens like I crave for these Dahi vada, Here's the one Restaurant in Doha called Zaffran...I love Dahi Vada of this place...You will love it like heaven.

Foccacia Bread



Bread is a staple food prepared from a dough of flour and water, usually by baking. It has been popular around the world and is one of the oldest artificial foods, having been of importance since the dawn of agriculture. Although no one really knows when the first loaf was baked, bread has been around for thousands of years. The presence of stone utensils and ovens dating back to the Neolithic seems to be witness to this. Bread was initially unleavened, as the first yeast was introduced by the Egyptians around 4000 years ago. In ancient Rome bakers were considered important members of society, as bread had an essential role, both for nutrition and religion: it was usual to bake and offer ritual loaves of bread during festivals to the gods. This was actually so common that, often, ovens were even built in temples. Romans were also the first to produce the type of flour needed to bake what is known today as "white bread", and they improved wheat's milling techniques. It is pretty clear that the roots of bread making in Italy go far back in time.

Focaccia is a flat oven-baked Italian bread similar in style and texture to pizza dough. It may be topped with herbs or other ingredients. Focaccia is popular in Italy and is usually seasoned with olive oil, salt, sometimes herbs, and may at times be topped with onion, cheese and any other toppings. It might also be flavored with a number of vegetables. Focaccia can be used as a side to many meals, as a base for pizza, or as sandwich bread. Focaccia al rosmarino (focaccia with rosemary) is a common focaccia style in Italian cuisine that may be served as an antipasto, appetizer, table bread, or snack.


Focaccia al rosmarino is a popular style of flatbread in Italian cuisine prepared using focaccia dough, rosemary, olive oil and salt, sea salt or kosher salt. Whole or sliced fresh rosemary leaves may be used, as can dried rosemary. Rosemary is among the most common herbs used to flavor Focaccia bread. Additional ingredients such as garlic, or basil may be used. Here I am topping my Focaccia with bell peppers and Dried Rosemary and some black pepper. The aroma of this Bread is just awesome because of Rosemary. I was so happy that my bread came so perfectly baked and we enjoyed it in our dinner by making some Focaccia sandwich with cream cheese and veggies. That was damn delicious. This was my first attempt for making Focaccia. First I was thinking to make typical normal Focaccia which contain Basil leaves and Rosemary topping. But Couldn't make it to go and buy Basil leaves so dropped the idea and thought to make it with colorful Bell peppers. I enjoyed baking this Lovely Bread. Today It was a baking day for me. I baked three back to back recipes. In the morning I baked Focaccia, Then baked Dinner Rolls, Then As it is a Fathers day today, So Prisha wants to give her paa a surprise, She told me to make a cake. ;) There are many Bananas At home, So baked Banana and coffee flavor Cake. A simple one, small one and just topped it with some sliced almonds and coffee. It was wonderful. Himanshu came back home, as Prisha was waiting for him eagerly. She can't keep that surprise in her, Hahahha my lil princess :) And she hugged him told him Happy Father's Day papa, We made a cake for you...Hahahah....And he was like.....Reallyyy???? Looking at me so surprisingly :) And I nodded with a smile ;) In her School, Her School staff sent one T-shirt to every Super Dad with the Palm print of their kid. Prisha too made it and got it back to the home. Himanshu wore it and got emotional, which he never ever been. Well, He enjoyed the moment and I felt so so good by watching this beautiful bond of father and daughter. As its a pretty  beautiful that every daughter is a princess of her father, As me too ;) Love you Paa :) Happy Father's Day to you too :) This is the T-shirt :)

Some spices are added at the end as a flavoring and are typically heated in a pan with ghee or cooking oil before being added to a dish.

Spicy Corn Salad



Sweet corn cut off from the cobs is generally eaten with peas (where this combination, given the practicality of steamed canned grains in an urban diet, is a frequent addition to diverse meals such as salads, stews, soups, pasta, and, most famously, whole sausage hot dogs.  Sweetcorn provides useful amounts of vitamins A, B3 which supports metabolism, the nervous and digestive systems and C.

Boiling is the classic way to prepare sweet corn. You can either use a wide, flat pan and lay the corn on its side, or use a taller stockpot to boil a big batch at once. Either way, fill the pan with enough water to cover the corn and bring it to a boil. Shuck off the outer husk and silk from the corn. Dissolve a tablespoon of salt in the water and add the corn.

In general, its whole or section of the cob may be served as a main dish.
