Carrot Buttermilk/Carrot Mor

Suddenly the weather is getting to hot here, two days back it was raining and now its too hot. This sudden climate changes are hard to tolerate now. We keep carrying the umbrellas and coolers in our bag whenever we go out, yes anything can happen now and this summer is totally different from other summers since ever i came to this Country. But however we keep ourself busy eventhough the climate play very much with our nerves. We keep travelling and trying to make plan to have weekend picnics and get togethers whenever the weather helps us a bit. Ok my today's post is going to be a summer friendly drink with the well know beta carotene rich carrots. This drink is definitely a thirsty quencher and very refreshing to enjoy while the weather is hot outside.Sending to Pari's Only - Gluten Free Cooking.

Eggless Orange Cream Biscuits

You cant forget bourbon and orange cream biscuits if you are born and brought in India, in 90's bourbon biscuits and cream biscuits were quite famous among the kids. I cant forget the taste of those biscuits and those moments are so special for me. Whenever my maternal uncle makes his trip to our place, we will look for both bourbon and orange cream biscuits, he never comes home with these biscuits. I still remember the taste and crunchiness of this biscuits. When you get a chance to make your own batch of orange cream biscuits at home, who will miss the chance.Even i dont want to miss the chance to make some orange flavored biscuits at home, actually i want to give a try to some cream biscuits since a while but somehow i couldnt able to bake them. Finally for this week's Fond Bites-Bake Along a weekly event by Subhashini, she suggested this cream biscuits.Every week we get to know about the week's challenge and the members of this group should bake and share either in their blog or with the group members. Seriously am having real fun with this group actually learning so many different bakes every week.

No Deepfry Spiced Sprouted Chickpeas Balls/Kondakadalai Kola Urundai

Sprouts, i cant give up this protein packed stuffs never ever in my life. I started sprouting beans and wholegrains at home just few years back when i wasnt able to get them here. Sprouting is just a child play, anyone can make sprouts at home easily. Some makes their sprouts by using kitchen gadgets or simply with a muslin cloth or else with hot pack vessels. Using hotpack vessels for making sprouts is definitely one of the easiest way of making sprouts at home. Soak the beans you want to sprout a day before, next day, drain the water and drop the soaked beans in hotpack, close it and keep it in room temperature for a day, trust me the next day you can see the sprouts already. Use those sprouts in your cooking, this is how am making my sprouts and this method sounds easy na.
