Not the one to make elaborate traditional sweets m

Not the one to make elaborate traditional sweets myself (for that matter sweets in general!), but also not the one to let go of any opportunity to pester mom to make her special Sankranti sweets either!😁😁
So after all these years, finally got to taste all my favourites Sankranti dishes once again! All thanks to this super woman I call - 'Mom'!
What you see here:
✅ Nolen gurer payesh - fragrant rice pudding made with milk, date palm jaggery and dry fruits.
✅ Narkeler laddu - grated coconut and palm jaggery balls
✅ Patishapta Pitha - Light crepe made of rice flour filled with grated coconut and date Palm jaggery filling, drizzled with thickened/ condensed milk.
✅ Gud and Till Chikkis - Jaggery and white sesame crisps and balls
What you don't see in this picture is :
♦️the elaborate planning she did
♦️the multiple times she called me at work to scold me for how I don't keep things that she wants for cooking or how the coconut grater doesn't work!
♦️the number of times she sent Papa to the market to get her some authentic ingredients
♦️how she sent work-in-progress photo updates on our family Whatssap group to entice us
♦️ but most importantly the amount she toiled all day real hard to make these and some other savouries for dinner so that we could all celebrate this festival together just like old days!

A silent bow to her and all mothers who incessantly work to make everyday so special.

Here's wishing you all a very happy Makar Sankranti, Lohri, Pongal and Bihu! May this season of harvest fill all our lives with happiness and prosperity!

Kodo Millet pulao -An easy peasy week day dinner done!
Check out the quick and easy tutorial over my insta stories. Recipe will also be added in the highlights!

A few months back I was invited to a lunch where they served some delicious Kodo Millet dishes and that's where I was introduced to this super grain! Trust me there has been no looking back! There are so many recipes you can make with the versatile Millet and practically use it in place of white rice in so many recipes!
Have you tried Kodo Millet? Let me know of some recipes I can try?

Secretly all week long I stash pieces of unused ca

Secretly all week long I stash pieces of unused carrots, veggies, stalks and roast chicken bones to turn them over the weekend into this magic potion called the 'more than 24 hour slow cooked bone broth'! 🙂

I was introduced to this a few months ago while desperately seeking for home remedies to help my mom recover after an operation and I am so glad I came accross this!

If you don't already know the benefits of #slowcooked #bonebroth , I urge you to read about it. Apart from having plenty of collagen and gelatin which helps your skin, joints and body, its number one benefit is repairing your gut lining or digestive tract. This here my friends is the holy grail of #guthealth , which has been believed to be the center in our body controlling our over all health!

We typically like to enjoy a batch of these piping hot like you see here sprinkled with pepper, a dollop of butter. The rest is then frozen or stored in mason jars to be consumed throughout the week or added in curries as broth.

How to make bone broth:

Ingredients:
1 kg Chicken/ mutton bones (tastes better if they are pre-roasted/ flavoured or bones from say roast chicken)
8-10 cloves garlic ( you can be as generous here!)
10-12 Black Peppercorns
Salt to taste

Optional ingredients:
Carrots/Celery stalks/Onions/Any veggies of your choice

Method:
1. Place the bones in a thick bottomed pan/cooker, making sure that there is still enough place for almost 1.5 times water to be added.
2. Submerge the bones in enough water. (While it slow cooks, the water will evaporate so you will have to keep adding water accordingly)
3. Add pepper, garlic cloves and salt and any optional veggies if you want.
4. Cook on slow heat for 20 - 36 hours ensuring to check to add water as required.
5. Once done, strain the broth (you can also enjoy a batch of this without straining sprinkled with pepper and a dollop of butter!)
6. Store them in mason jars to be consumed in next few days or freeze them as cubes to be used in upcoming weeks.

Happy new year everyone!! Almost been a year since

Happy new year everyone!! Almost been a year since I have been missing in action, but so so grateful to so many of you for checking on me if everything's all right.

This year was:

A fantastic year of achieving professional goals I had set out for myself but also realizing how important it is to have a work life balance. Something I will focus more in 2020! A year which made me realize that there is NOTHING, absolutely nothing that is more important than HEALTH.Will you believe me if I said, I had never been to a gym where I have paid a gym membership before! Well this changed in 2019! I had set out a small target for myself and ended up achieving almost double of that. Of course, still a long way to achieve my next goal but didn't somebody wise say - "the man who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones". Just START is what I would say!

A year which hit me with a hard realization of how our parents are getting old and how we need to pause and spend time with them. Last few months of the year where marred with lot of health issues of near ones, a major operation in the family and never ending rounds to the doctor. But I am so grateful that it is getting better and so so thankful to God to bless us with our loved ones.

Yet another year of traveling! Mr husband and I seized all opportunities to travel anywhere and everywhere we could in between everything to keep our love for travel intact and never have I believed more in how much traveling is therapeutic!

A year of supporting causes that matter!I did my bit in doing things for the environment, growing our own organic veggies, participated in peaceful protests, plogging etc. Just took out time for things that matter!

So 2019, thank you for all the accomplishments, all that you taught me but most importantly thank you for teaching me to be 'RESILIENT' in situations and 'GRATEFUL' for what I have!
And 2020, looking forward to you with starry eyes with already a list full of goals, aspirations and bucketlists!
Here's wishing you and your families a new year filled with sunshine, happiness, good health and prosperity! May we strike the balance between salads and cheesecakes ;) #happynewyear

SWIPE RIGHT 👉👉👉👉 to see more pictures of our evening at @tapouttavern !
Tapout Tavern, Sarjapur have launched a new menu, and Mr T and I recently got the opportunity to taste their food and drinks and have a beautiful evening together at their rooftop restaurant.

The best part is their - 'Tap in menu @199' where you can choose any 1 bar bites and 1 drink (mostly includes alcoholic drinks) from a list of 7 bar bites and 7 drinks at just Rs199!! So pocket friendly right?
Definitely recommend the 'Tap in menu @199' !

The staff service was exceptional with the staff being attentive and very eager to serve. Thank you @tapouttavern for having us 😊😊

Hello December, my favourite month!🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️, I will miss you! As always, you have not ceased to pleasantly surprise me with everything that you had in store for me! ❤❤
While the award for the best month still goes to you, you got a very tough competition from all the months last year specially March, April, May, June, July and August!

Can you be kind enough to pass the message to all the other months of 2019 to be kind and generous, bring in positive vibes and inundate us with love, happiness, good health, happy surprises, peace and prosperity?
Also is it too much to ask to add lots of travel, good food, losing weight and winning a lottery to that list as well? 😉😉😎😎🙈🙈
Thank you and Gratitude as always 🙏🙏🙏
Xoxo,

Let me add another cake photo to your feed and make it more Christmasy? 😄😄
I have been itching to bake something after seeing the gorgeous baking photos all over my feed, and the first thing that came to my mind was to bake my favourite orange cake but this time with lots of cranberries!! But with mum around this time for Christmas, I think I am going to take over the official 'taster' role while she dons the Baker Cape 😎😎
Are you the 'Baker' or the 'Taster' in the house during Christmas?

When mom is finally in town for your birthday afte

When mom is finally in town for your birthday after years and keeps baking cakes!! This one here is a dry fruit cake covered in dark chocolate ganache made by her.❤❤
Couldn't be more grateful to celebrate this birthday with my family all around me 🙏🙏🙏 Balloons, decorations, candles, gifts, flower tiaras reminded me of childhood birthdays were mom and dad used to meticulously plan the birthday party for days and all I did was eagerly cut the cake, stuff myself with my favorite food and secretly prayed for people to leave the birthday party so that I could open the gifts 😄😄😄😄
Just realized last night while cutting the cake, my excitement around birthdays hasn't wavered a bit in all these years and so happy to see that neither has that of the people around me!
Cheers to another year of growing younger, hotter and wiser (not too sure!). Afterall age is just a number that shouldn't be on the cake 😎😎😎

Celebrating 3 years (officially) with the love of

Celebrating 3 years (officially) with the love of my life ❤
It only looks like yesterday when we said our vows to each other to :
To love not just for this moment, not for an hour, or day, or year, but to love for lifetimes that are ahead because one lifetime with each other won't be enough...
To love each other through all hardship, darkness, and pain...
To reach for our joys, our hopes, and always with honesty and faith...
To nurture our dreams, because through them our true soul shines...
To promise to help shoulder our challenges, for there is nothing we cannot face if we stand together...
To have the patience that love demands, to speak when words are needed and to share in the silence when they are not....
To just simply irrevocably love and stand by each other...❤
But life is not perfect and I wish we could have added couple of more vows :
For 'him to be patient and take Instagram worthy pictures everytime' 😄😄
For me to let him be the glorious sugar monster that he is!😄😄
For him to not make those grunt sounds but instead eat and relish every morsel of the healthy food that I make for him!😂😂
For me to let him 'Netflix and Chill' and not bring up my To - Do list 🙈🙈
And many many more.... Cheers to this imperfect but oh so perfect journey 💕

Keeping it simple and desi for meatless mondays! This palak paneer or cottage cheese in spinach puree was trimmed down to act as a perfect low carb dinner for tonight!
Spinach is a life saver when it comes to keeping your recipes 'Low carb'. I love the versatile spinach and keep adding it to my dishes in various ways.
How do you use spinach in your recipes?

A very happy and prosperous Diwali to you and your

A very happy and prosperous Diwali to you and your loved ones 💕
The one thing I completely avoid making is - sweets! I don't fancy them much and can confidently say that I am a savoury person (if that's a thing!). But once in a while I do give into the demands of the sugar monster in the house and end up making them and today was one such day😁. This Diwali is very special with my sister (in law) celebrating this festival with us and it only made sense to make everything the bro-sister duo love to celebrate this festival of lights. Afterall what are festivals without pampering your loved ones!🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ My first and humble attempt at making 'Malpua with Rabri' and 'Kalakand' at home (checkout my instastories). The savouries are missing but I promise I will share a picture very soon with the entire Diwali spread we are having.

Till then, here's wishing that this festival of lights brings only positivity, prosperity, love, success and all the good things in your life! HAPPY DIWALI 💥💥💥💥💥💥
Are you a sweets or a savoury loving person?

Are you a planner?? Because I AM ONE!
I love when I get to plan, organize and tick off tasks from my To-do. The sheer joy of writing things down and ticking them off gives me a kick! 🙈🙈 I am sure I am not the only one! Are you like me?
Just like this week which has already been such a productive one, with me completing quite a few things that were long on my list.
One thing that makes a huge difference for me is waking up early! It gives me so much time to plan my day well and get things going, that I am trying all tricks ib the book to stick to this habit.
Another one that makes a big difference to my mornings is a good nourishing breakfast to start my day with, I am sucker for Mueseli so you would see that a lot on my feed too, just like this one with berry smoothie and @zerobeli_breakfast fruit delight Muesli.
Here's hoping that you all are having a great week too!
.

Also THANK YOU so much to everyone for participating in the @zerobeli_breakfast GIVEAWAY! I had so much fun hosting it! And a big congratulations to winner @noopur_nupz !
