Khatta Meetha Sandesh cake, a valentine day special. I got inspired by master-chef (TV program) and wanted to try out this beautiful and unique dish for valentine day. This recipe takes lots of effort but it’s worth it when you’re making this dish for your loved one. This cake made up of four layer with each layer having different elements. This is certainly a non conventional dish so go ahead and try yourselves and enjoy!!

Kesari & Beetroot Phirni

Phirni is a delicious dessert made in north India. It is made using coarse ground rice, sugar and milk and is flavored with cardamom, saffron and rose essence. Phirni is very similar to kheer but tastes different then kheer. This dessert made during festivals. This recipe makes two different flavors one with beetroot and another one with Kesar (saffron). Beetroot gives a nice color and unique taste to phirni and makes it more inviting.

Pista Kalakand

Kalakand is a delicious traditional sweet famous in Northern India. Making it in the traditional way takes more time but tastes awesome. This kalakand made with milk, paneer, pista powder, flavored with kewra essence and cardamom powder.  You can use it for your Diwali celebration or any other festivals.

Coconut Ladoo

Coconut Ladoo is a delicious sweet and is made during festivals. Fresh shredded coconut cooked with milk, mava, sugar and flavored with cardamom and rose essence. It’s really quick and tasty sweet, which can be made on any occasion. In this recipe, i have used milk and mava powder but you can use condensed milk to make ladoos. This recipe includes two type of ladoos, one is plain and the other is beetroot. Adding beet into it gives it a beautiful color.

Mohanthal

Mohanthal is a traditional Indian  popular sweet dish which is prepared during the festival of Diwali. This delicious sweet, prepared with gram flour, mawa, ghee and sugar. Roasting besan is the most important step to making Mohanthal because if its not roasted well or its burnt, it may spoil your dish. Roasted besan has nice sweet aroma which makes you crave for it, and is the reason why it is one of my personal favorites.  

Lychee Ice Cream

Ice creams is everyone’s favorite, especially during summer! Lychee is an Asian fruit and is a seasonal sweet juicy small fruit which is available only during summer. Lychee ice cream is made from Lychee pulp, milk sugar and flavored with vanilla. Generally in India you can get Lychee ice cream in stores however making it fresh has it’s own awesome taste.
