Peanut Jaggery Ladoo/ Moongfali aur Gud ke Ladoo/ Indian Sweets/ Winter Special

Peanut Jaggery Ladoo/
Moongfali aur Gud ke Ladoo/
Indian Sweets/
Winter Special 
Hi Friends,
If you are a sweet lover then you must be aware about sweet craving which comes any time, any day without any previous notice? I am on the same boat. I always crave for something sweet and end up gulping a bar of chocolate or may be making this or Broken wheat this way and most of the time this recipe works. 
But this time while winter are saying good bye to us i didn't wanted to miss the opportunity to make these healthiest, quickest and easiest ladoos which are great for after meal dessert or any time of the day when u crave for something healthy and sweet. It is a quick and easy recipe for bachelors too. It will take you hardly 15 minutes to make them. So guys make them and enjoy anytime of the day. 

Ingredients:-

Peanuts - 1 cup
Jeggary/Gud- 3/4 cups

Method:-
Take peanuts and jeggary

dry roast peanuts 

when skin starting pealing means its roasted

now cool them completely

take them in a large plate and peel the skin

you can leave them 

grate or break jaggery 

take them in a grinder

pulse them
you can powder or make them coarse 

add jeggary/gud

pulse it and its done within seconds

take out it in a bowl

take a handful

press and roll and shape it

Scrumptious ladoos are ready to eat

Notes:-

  1. Instead of making powder you can grind peanuts in coarse and then add jaggery separately and mix both of them and make ladoos for crunchier version.
  2. No need to add ghee in this recipe as oil in peanuts will be enough to bind the ladoos.
  3. You can add your favorite nuts. just roast them and grind with peanuts.
Hope you will like it

Custard Fudge/ Karachi Halwa with Custard Powder/ Diwali Sweet Recipe

Custard Fudge/
Karachi Halwa with Custard Powder/
Diwali Sweet Recipe
Hi Friends,
I love making ladoo and barfis, but i hardly try my hands on these sweet delicacies as i am always afraid of making sugar syrup of different thread consistency. So on Diwali i kept on looking for easy recipes in which sugar syrup is not required. And i ended up with this custard powder karachi halwa recipe. 
This is the most easy recipe to make as you don't need so much perfection to know the exact consistency or check the thread formation. But it will be hectic to make it as you have to do continuous stirring for almost 15-20 minute. Which would be a good exercise for your hands. One more plus point it that you can make this in advance and keep it ready to serve or pack in the boxes. I will recommend you to make it one or two days earlier and then serve or pack it. 

Ingredients:-

Vanilla Custard- 1 cup
Sugar - 2 cups
Water- 3 cups
Ghee- 1 tbsp
Chopped almonds or cashew nuts - 1 tbsp
Food color- 1 pinch (optional) i did not used it

Method:-
Take all your ingredients

Grease & keep a medium thali/plate/cake pan ready

mix sugar water and custard powder in a bowl

now pour it in a large vessel and start heating it 

it will start boiling

within 5 minutes it will turn transparent

now add 1 tsp ghee

keep on stirring it

after every one minute of stirring pour 1 tsp ghee until it finishes

keep on stirring

after 15 minutes it will start leaving the sides

see its all bubbly 

now add chopped almonds

all added

and mixed well

pour it in grease plate/thali 

mark pieces after it cools down completely




cut in your desired shape



Notes:-
  1. You can use cashew nuts instead of almonds. I was having only this in hand.
  2. to make it more appealing you can add a pinch of orange color. 
  3. You can cut in your desired shape with a cookie cutter if making for kids party. 
Hope you will like it

Samak ke Chawal ki kesar wali kheer/ Samak ki kesari kheer/ Vrat ki Kheer

Samak ke Chawal ki kesar wali kheer/
Samak ki kesari kheer/
Vrat ki Kheer
Hi Friends,
I already have a samak ke chawal ki kheer but this one is more rich creamy and flavorful. I have used kesar which is bought by one of my kashmiri colleague. It is a very easy and quick recipe. It was ready within 20 minutes. Everyone relished it. My kids loved it and asked me to make it again. Hope you will also like it.

Ingredients:-
Samak/Sama/Vrat ke Chawal- 1/2cup
Sugar- 1 cup
Kesar/saffron- 10-15 threads
Dry fruits - any (i used almonds raisins coconut)
Ghee- 2 tsp (optional)

Method:-
Take all your ingredients


take milk in a big kadai/pan

when milk is warm, 
take out few tablespoons in a bowl

add saffron threads 

stir them once and let them sit for few minutes

now add sama ke chawal in milk
  
see after few minutes saffron is infused in milk

after two boils

see its almost done

let them cook for few more minutes

check again

now add sugar

chopped coconut

crushed almonds

raisins
instead of frying them in ghee,i soak them in water for some time

stir them to incorporate everything well

now add saffron milk

  and ghee

mix everything, cover and cook for 1 minute

kheer is ready to serve

 its was yummmmmmm

it was over withing few minutes of cooling down

rich and creamy kheer with full of nutrition 

enjoy hot or chilled

Notes:-

  1. Adjust the amount of sugar. For us it was just fine. You can increase or decrease the quantity as per your wish.
  2. You can also use half water and half milk for a lighter version.
  3. Using ghee is optional but it will enhance the taste of kheer.
  4. After cooling the kheer become more thick. You can enjoy it chilled and thick or add some more milk warm it and enjoy piping hot. 
Hope you will like it
