Grated Vegetable Pakodas/Mixed Grated Vegetable Fritters

Pakodas aka deep fried fritters have their own place in our snack platter. Yes if its raining or if its time to watch a movie together, i dont forget to get ready with a box of pakodas. However a cup of hot masala chai with a plate of pakodas is definitely a real bliss. Though deep frying is quite rare in my kitchen nowadays, i dont hesitate to prepare fritters once a while as i have some deep fried food lovers at home. Coming to this fritters,this time i sticked with grated colourful vegetables which turned these fritters much catchy and colourful obviously. Grated vegetables gets well mixed with the flour mix and its quite an interesting way to feed vegetables to kids. Anyhow this pakodas makes an excellent munchies while watching a movie.

Rajma Cheese Cigar Rolls/Cheese Kidney Beans Cigar Rolls

While watching a movie or a Tv show, we always look for something crispy, savory and filling to munch. Obviously my mind will always think about adding some interesting ingredients easily in those munchies.I always love to add beans in most of my dishes, yes beans are rich in proteins, i have some picky eaters who doesnt even touch beans aka legumes in their meal. Hence i love to add beans in most of my dishes and mask them with other ingredients to feed them easily. One among those trials is this cheese loaded kidney beans cigar rolls. The stuffing of this cigar rolls is definitely an interesting one. None noticed the addition of Kidney beans as they mashed nicely and mixed with mashed potatoes and spices. Everyone at home enjoyed thoroughly these crispy fried beauties.

Empanada is a pastry which is either baked or fried depending upon many countries in America and Spain. I love baked versions of Empanadas, and this dish is definitely an excellent munchies to have either for snacks or for a meal when served along with either salads or with a bowl of soup. I have already tried couple of Empanadas, though i have few versions to try. Hence my today's post is an another interesting and kid's friendly empanadas which is baked few days back for our evening snacks. Pizza Empanadas, my kids went crazy when i served them once these empanadas came out of the oven. These tiny cuties vanished very quickly than i imagined.

Melon Balls in Orange-Lavender Syrup

Looking for an easy breezy, summer style dessert for your meal or for a get together, i have something to share with you. My today's post is an excellent summer friendly dessert, which is definitely a quick dessert to prepare. Scooping melon balls may take some time but trust me its one of the quite interesting, fruity dessert to relish after a meal. This dessert can be prepared a day earlier, obviously you doesnt need to worry about to prepare these sort of desserts. I opted for an aromatic syrup to serve this melon balls. Once its summer here, you can see lavender plants shows their head in every corner of the streets or in gardens. We have planted some lavender plants in our school garden during spring season . After three months,lavender sprigs are just prefect to harvest to prepare some pot pourri (which is a mixture of dried naturally fragrant plants) or else to use in cooking or baking.
