🥕THE GREAT CARROT CHALLENGE 🥕
Carrot Rasmalai
For Suji Balls
3 Carrots
1/2 Cup Milk +1/2 Cup Milk
1 Tbsp Desi Ghee
1-2 Tbsp Sugar
1/2 Cup Suji
For Milk
750 ml or 4 Cups FULL CREAM Milk
1/2 Cup Sugar
Almonds
Pistachios
3 - 4 Elachi Powder
Method
Prepare the Carrot–Suji Balls
Wash, peel and finely grind the carrots in the grinder with half cup of milk.
Add 1 tbsp desi ghee in a heavy-bottom pan.
Add grinded carrots and Add ½ cup milk and half cup suji and cook till the milk almost evaporates.
Add sugar and cook again until the mixture becomes slightly thick and glossy. Cook till the mixture leaves the sides of the pan and forms a soft dough-like consistency.
Switch off the flame and allow it to cool slightly.
Grease your palms and make small smooth balls. Keep aside. Now steam these balls in the idli steamer for 8to 10 minutes.
2. Prepare the Milk (Ras)
Boil 750 ml (4 cups) full cream milk in a heavy pan.
Once it starts boiling, reduce the flame and simmer till the milk reduces slightly.
Add sugar, cardamom (elaichi) powder, chopped almonds and pistachios.
Simmer for another 5–7 minutes till the milk becomes lightly thick and aromatic.
3. Assemble the Carrot Rasmalai
Gently add the prepared steamed carrot–suji balls into the hot simmering milk.
Cook on low flame for 2-3 minutes so the balls absorb the flavoured milk.
Switch off the flame and let it rest for at least 30 minutes for best flavour.
Serving Suggestion

For example, you can make the bhallas in advance and store them in the refrigerator, and prepare the papdi and sweet chutney beforehand; these can be used for up to 15 days.
Prepare a small \"chaat masala mix\" so you don\'t have to open different containers repeatedly.
This mix can include salt, chili powder, cumin powder, and chaat masala.

Mahalabia, also known as Muhallebi, Muhalabia, Mahalebi, Mohallabiah, or Muhallabiyeh is a traditional Middle Eastern pudding made with milk, rice flour, sugar, and flavored with rose water. I gave this pudding a twist with flavour of thandai for celebration of Holi.
Thandai Mohallabiah with Rosy sauce

¼ cup heavy cream
4tbsp cornstarch/cornflour or rice flour
2tsp thandai readymade powder or home made paste made with (almonds,saunf,rosepetals blackpepper a,melonseeds and cardamom )
1/2 cup granulated sugar, as per desired sweetness
1 tsp rose water/ or 1/4 tsp rose extract
For topping -½ cup prepared rose sauce
For garnishing
2 tbsp nuts of choice
Sweet betal leaves (optional )
dried rose petals( optional)
Method -For Rose sauce –Dilute 4 tbsps rose syrup with ½ cup of water and 1 tsp of cornflour and cook stirring constantly ,to avoid any lumps, till thick like sauce ,.Cool and keep aside for topping .
Add milk in a heavy-bottomed pan, add cream, followed with cornstarch, and sugar. Using a wire whisk, whisk the mixture very well. Make sure the cornstarch is not settled at the bottom of the pot Then, switch on the flame to medium heat.Cook the mahalabia pudding mix on medium heat, while continuously whisking the milk mixture until it begins to thicken, like a custard. This will take around 7-8minutes. Do not stop whisking, or else the cornstarch will settle at the bottom and burn, or the mixture may turn clumpy. (Continuous whisking until thickened is the only important step you need to follow while making this pudding.)
Reduce the heat to low, and continue whisking. When it coats the back of a spoon, it is done.

My biggest inspiration and through these women whom I have develop passion, dedication and creativity toward cooking are my grandma and my mom.
When I was younger, I used to watch my grandma cook. She would carefully prepare the ingredients and teach me how to mix, taste, and season the food. While watching her cook made me curious and excited to learn. She encouraged me to help her, and little by little I started cooking simple dishes on my own.
From my mom, I have learned consistent in taste, balance in flavours, textures, keep experimenting with traditional recipes which elevated my journey today from home maker to home chef as well as food creator.

#HOLI26 Healthy and delicious, Khandvi is a light Gujarati snack made with gram flour (besan) and yogurt. To prepare it, take 1 cup besan, 1 cup curd, and 2 cups water in a bowl. Add ½ teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 teaspoon ginger-green chilli paste, and salt to taste. Mix everything well until the batter becomes completely smooth and lump-free. Pour this mixture into a pan and cook it on medium flame while stirring continuously so that no lumps form. After a few minutes the mixture will start thickening; keep stirring until it becomes smooth and spreadable. Quickly spread a thin layer of this cooked batter on the back of a plate, tray, or clean kitchen counter. Allow it to cool for 2–3 minutes, then cut it into long strips and gently roll each strip to form beautiful khandvi rolls. For tempering, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small pan, add 1 teaspoon mustard seeds, 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, and a few curry leaves, and pour this tempering over the rolls.

The Woman Who Inspires Me – My Mom The woman who inspires me the most is my mom. She is the heart of our home and the reason I fell in love with cooking and baking. Growing up, I always remember standing beside her in the kitchen, watching her turn simple ingredients into something magical.
One memory that will always stay with me is the day she baked a cake for our family. It wasn’t a fancy bakery cake, but it was filled with warmth, patience, and so much love. She let me mix the batter and told me, “Good food is made with love, not just recipes.” That moment sparked my passion for baking.
Since then, every cake I make reminds me of her. The smell of a cake baking in the oven takes me back to those beautiful moments in the kitchen with her. She didn’t just teach me recipes—she taught me creativity, patience, and how food can bring people together.
My mom is my first teacher, my biggest supporter, and the woman who inspired my journey in the kitchen. Every recipe I create carries a little piece of her love and inspiration.
This photo is my tribute to the woman who made my life sweeter—just like the cakes she inspired me to bake.

PALAK PANEER BIRYANI
Biryani is a mixed rice dish originated in the Indian Subcontinent, more popular in India, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan. Apart from rice as the main ingredient, it is prepared with spices, dry fruits, vegetables, curd etc and in non-vegetarian version eggs, mutton, chicken etc. are also added. \"Birasta\" aka fried onion gives lovely flavour to any biryani. Word \"Biryani\" is derived from the Farsi/Persian language word \" brishtah\" which mean fried onions. Biryani was depicted on a postal stamp of India in 2017, which shows, how biryani is popular. It is believed that this Persian originated delicacy was brought to India by the Mughals.
Though biryani is a meal in itself, usually served with raita, papad, salad (specially onion) etc and sometimes gravy dish like Salan also goes best.
As India is known for it\'s rich and diverse culinary traditions, but biryani is one of the iconic foods which is enjoyed through out the country. Almost every region in India has its own version of the biryani and there are over 26 types of Biryani in India.

KHAMANG KAKDI (GUDI PADVA SPECIAL)
Cool, crunchy, and khamang! A Maharashtrian salad you’ll love this summer.”
Khamang Kakadi is a refreshing Maharashtrian cucumber salad, often served as part of a traditional Maharashtrian thali. The word “khamang” refers to something that is aromatic, appetizing, and crunchy, while “kakadi” means cucumber. True to its name, this dish is light, crisp, and full of flavor.
It is made with finely chopped cucumber mixed with fresh coconut, roasted peanuts, green chilies, and a hint of lemon juice, then topped with a tempering of mustard seeds and curry leaves. The nutty crunch of peanuts, the cooling effect of cucumber, and the mild spiciness from chilies make it both healthy and delicious.
Packed with hydration and fiber from cucumber, protein from peanuts, and freshness from coconut and herbs, Khamang Kakad is not only a great side dish but also a wholesome salad option for summers. It is often enjoyed during fasting days (upvas) or served as an accompaniment to meals for its cooling and digestive benefits.

Kalakand Recipe
Ingredients
1 litre full-fat milk
1–2 tsp vinegar or lemon juice
2 tsp ghee
Freshly made paneer (from the milk)
½ cup Mithai Mate (adjust sweetness as you like)
Cardamom powder (optional)
Chopped dry fruits (optional)
Method
1. Make Fresh Paneer
Boil
1 litre milk in a heavy pan.
Once it boils, lower the flame and add vinegar slowly.
Milk will curdle — turn off the gas.
Strain it using a muslin cloth.
Wash the paneer under cold water to remove the sour taste.
Lightly squeeze out extra water (don’t make it too dry — little moisture keeps kalakand soft).
2. Cook the Kalakand
Heat 2 tsp ghee in a pan.
Add the freshly made crumbled paneer
Add Mithai Mate and mix well.
Cook on low flame, stirring continuously.
When the mixture thickens and becomes grainy, add a pinch of cardamom powder (optional).
Cook until it leaves the sides of the pan but is still soft and moist.
3. Set the Kalakand
Grease a plate or tray with a little ghee.
Spread the cooked kalakand mixture evenly.
Garnish with chopped pistachios/almonds.
Let it cool completely.
Cut into squares and serve.
