Today we are starting with the last and  final  week  of BM 38. My theme for this week is "How to Cook the perfect" series...  This is a very interesting theme which Srivalli announced for this month. There are lots of recipes in this  page  which are perfectly made.
My first post under this theme is  Lemonade. Made this along  my kids  and they too enjoy making this yummy refreshing  Lemonade. Here you can check the original recipe posted by Felicity Cloake. 




We need:

Lemons 2
Sugar 4 spoons
Mint leaves for  garnishing
Water 3 cups 
Pinch of salt

Method:

Cut one  lemon into chunks and put it in blender along with juice of another lemon.
Also add salt, sugar and little water to make a puree.
Now add rest of the water.
Add sugar according to your taste
Add mint leaves and refrigerate to chill.
To serve pour in glass with some ice cubes and fresh mint leaves on top.

Kaju Katli / Kaju Burfi

Image
Kaju Katli also known as Kaju burfi is an Indian dessert made of Cashew nuts and sugar. Kaju Katli  has been in my to do list for a quite some time. Finally I made it for this Diwali. Diamond sweet is one of   my son's favorite sweet, yes " Diamond Sweet " that is what he calls it. The texture was't that smooth that we get in market but the taste was awesome.  Typically, Cashew nuts are soaked in water overnight then ground it into paste and added to sugar syrup to make a smooth dough. Few people make it in different way, make cashew nuts powder and add to sugar syrup. Either ways you make the taste and texture matters. I have followed the 2nd method as I didn't have much time to prepare this for a potluck party.  This recipe  goes to the final day of week 1, Blogging Marathon 81 under the theme " Diwali Savories and Sweets". Here goes the recipe...... Ingredients: Kaju / Cashew nut powder 1 1/2 cup Sugar 1 cup Water 1/2 cup Butter / Ghee 1 tbsp Edible S...
