Butterfly pea tea | Blue tea ( Video recipe)

 

Butterfly blue tea is nothing but a tea made with  "Sangu flower". There are two colors in this flower, white and blue. Blue colored flower is used to make this tea.

This tea has some health benefits such as being full of antioxidants and good for your eyes. This tea doesn't have any flavor. Butterfly pea flowers are kind of considered an "herb" in many countries. I have this plant in my terrace garden.  You can just add hot water to the flower and drink or else can squeeze lemon juice which changes the color and then can have it.

Green gram- rice kanji is a healthy porridge. It is a one-pot easy dinner recipe that can be easily made. This porridge is filling and be given to people above 2 years.

Don't skip the addition of garlic as it gives flavor, taste, and aids in the digestion. The thogayal I prepared is the best combo. do try this once and let me know it.

Easy pressure cooker sambar with step by step picture and video.

Sambar is a one-dish which is quite common in many households in South India. Each one makes their way for sambar. Some cook dal and veggies separately then mix it and boil with sambar powder with tempering at last. I make that way when I use drumstick as a vegetable because it gets overcooked when done in a pressure cooker. This method is my most common method which I at least make once a week. do try this quick sambar recipe and share your experience.
