She'reya | seviyan | vermicelli kheer with rose flavour


Now that eid-ul-fitr is just round the corner. Today I decided to give out the recipe of a dish without which no eid is complete. Seviya, it is by and large made in almost every continent in the world. In Italy it's called vermacelli, basically it's a kind of pasta, which is used as a dessert and as a side dish both. These roasted, sugared noodles are traditional dessert served on eid. You can either make them as sweetened milky soup or dried.

Atte halwa | whole wheat halwa | Sheera


Atte ke halwa is a popular sweet dish in North India. My childhood memory of this is of the gurudwara's. I remember dragging my parents every Sundays to the near by gurudwara so that i could get to eat my favourit halwa. The place i belong to Assam, halwa is not really a specialty and people can really go wrong with it. i remember as a kid i would hate halwa only because of the wrong preparation of it. For us in Assam sooji halwa ment only baby food and not a dessert. As i grew up in a community where me & my family met people from almost every state in India. Now i can proudly share the perfect recipe of atte ka halwa & believe me it tastes good.

White Chocolate Mango mousse


Hello everyone,today I am doing a recipe from the last lot of ripe mango's from my back yard. As I have mentioned before that I am not a great fan of mango's so I really come up with too many innovative ideas from this fruit. The other day one of my friend sent me pictures of the mango mousse that she made for her boys. (Yes, she is a mother if three boys and still so active and total fun person to be with). The picture looked so tempting that I couldn't stop myself from taking the recipe from her to try it out with few very minimal changes from my side. This recipe is totally "Vegan" and you would love to try it out.
