Kiwi & Lemon Cooler...:P

Summer's at it's peak and it's quite tough when you have babies/toddlers who are quite fussy with their food...!
Well definitely not their mistake...anybody can be bored with the same food, same milk etc etc every single day so i'm sure most of you agree "Children" are no exception for that matter...;)

I love cooking for my one year old and when she...says "Mama" and gestures to express she wants more my joy needs no bounds...i enjoy her thoroughly for that matter...!!

Since "Dubai" is a place where 8 months of the year we are bogged with high temperatures ranging between 30+ to sometimes 50 degrees as well....!! Keeping your body well hydrated is very important...!!

Coming to "KIWI " a fruit that is Originally know as "Yang Tao" is actually the National Fruit of "The Republic Of China".

Eating kiwi fruit is clearly a healthy choice, and it is particularly useful in these cases:
  • Prevents Asthma.
  • Prevents wheezing and coughing, especially in children.
  • Protects our DNA from mutations.
  • Provides a healthy amount of antioxidants and vitamins.
  • Helps prevent colon cancer & also helps control diabetes & cholestrol levels thanks to a high fiber content.
Well to cut the story short quite a healthy and apt choice for summer, or even otherwise:

Ingredients:
  1. Kiwi Fruit - 6-8 nos.
  2. Sugar(White/brown/sugarfree) - 5-6tsp.
  3. Lemon - 2nos.
  4. Cardamom pwdr - 1/2 tsp.
  5. Water - 2-3 cups.
Method:
  • Peel the Kiwi fruit(but don't core them), blend sugar and kiwi in the juicer.
  • Add lemon juice, cardamom powder and cool water, mix all the ingredients well.
  • Strain the juice and serve cool.(pssst...you could add a few springs of mint in the juicer as well for a minty flavour..;)
Serves: 4nos.
Preperation time: 8-10 mins.

Very Refreshing & quick to make, enjoy...;)

+Green PeasPulao / Matar Pulao(One Pot Meal...;)

Matar/Green Peas Pulao(One Pot Meal): Weekend's somehow make me feel weak in the knees to eat rice...i feel really bored to have roti's & dosas the whole week through..!! My versatile pallets and the stomach who's used to eat variety from mom screams out and demands more variety on the weekends. However though a weekday today i broke the usual rules and cooked up my favorite "Matar Pulao" which doesn't take much time as well as it's not too much  of a labor, since it all goes in one pot and pressure cook cool and serve, so i don't need to even wash too many dishes, so last night's dinner was Green Peas Pulao, Karnataka style with a slight variation for the sake of good health..;P What goes Inside: 1Cup: Basmati Rice(i used Basmati, since this is what i can acquire here easily ) or normal cooking rice of your choice. Spices: As per your taste you may add or delete the same(Cinnamon sticks+Green Cardamom+C...

Eggless Choco Crumbly Cookies*Tried & Tested*

A few days back i happened to post my *Tried & Tested* version of  20 min Choco Almond - Cashew Secret Center Crumbly Cookies and a very old school friend popped me a question on how about an egg-less version and  and i decided to give that a try well with slight variations of my own..;).This is an exceptionally easy one for baking beginners.These are Classic Shortbread sort of Cookies which absolutely melt in your mouth...but technically these are cookies which use Cornflour along with normal All purpose Flour while baking these.The Cocoa in it adds a much needed twist to their melt in the mouth texture apart from the fact that these are Egg less.I used a bit of yoghurt and maple syrup while experimenting with flavours and while adding to it's health value i don't think it did much harm to the cookie's texture too...;) This one's gotta be a keeper ladies..;) So Reena, here's what i got for you especially: Eggless Chocolate Crumbly Cookies*Tried & Tested*...

+Coffee Liqueur - (Non Alcoholic)

Coffee Liqueur - (Non - Alcoholic): This is something i used when i made my daughter's Birthday Cake earlier,and i really can vouch on this one for it's taste, i actually shouldn't be terming this one as liqueur, because there is no alcohol in it.  But frankly you know what, I can't just call it plain coffee-cocoa-sugar syrup.  I'd say this one's just too plain for something so ecstatic tasting,In fact, this one is so amazing. And if you just happen to have a little extra left, just save it up and use it to make your next cup of home-made mocha, and believe me you won't just stop at one cup! What Goes Inside: 1 Cup: Water. 1 Tbsp: Cocoa powder( I used Hershey's). 1 1/4 Tbsp: Instant Coffee powder. 3/4 Cup: Sugar. How it's put in together:   In a small pan combine all ingredients and bring to a boil. Set aside and cool before using. If you intend on making an alcoholic liqueur, all you need to add to this is few couple spoons ...
