Poha with Vegetables

Today we are starting with 47th edition of Blogging marathon. MY theme for this week is  to cook from  "Restaurant Menu". The restaurant  I choose is Satya Asha Authentic Indian Restaurant. 

For week 2, day 1 am here with a breakfast dish which is very popular in Gujarat and Maharashtra.
Poha is pressed rice flakes, which  is the main ingredient in this dish. Adding some veggies and lime juice gives this dish a very special taste. Here goes the ingredients and method for this  popular dish....

Kaju Katli / Kaju Burfi

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.
