Thinnai Adhirasam | Foxtail Millet Jaggery Sweet | Diwali Sweet


Thinnai adhirasam with step by step pictures.


For this year Diwali recipe, I have decided to try some sweet and savories with millets. Let me see how for it goes smoothly and How many recipes I try. To begin with, I tried this adhirasam with thinnai arisi. I am a big fan of this adhirasam and hence I tried this first. Making this millet adhirasam is same as regular adhirasam only with the difference in millet in the place of rice. All the other procedure remains the same. I added more syrup into the flour. So the next day I couldn't make balls correctly. I resolved it by adding some wheat flour. So be careful not to add all the jaggery syrup.

Sesame & Beaten rice Balls | Ellu & Aval Laddu with Coconut sugar | Diabetic friendly Recipe | Low GI index sweet


Coconut sugar doesn't sound weird ,yes I too felt the same when I got this product from plattershare's goorganic belly nirvana  associate program.The product says that it can be used as regular sugar in place of white sugar and it is suitable for diabetic people as it has low glycemic index.
 I have made this laddu/ balls with the sugar and doesn't find  any change in flavors and taste and I world probably say it's tastier than the regular one.I have made with white sesame seeds but you can also use the black one.

Tomato Soup | Soup recipe | How to make tomato soup


Days are getting shorter and nights are long and cold.Evenings are so cold and we log for something warm/hot.To cope it up soup comes in handy.I am not that a soup person but also won't  avoid if I get a hot bowl when it is cool outside.My son would grab a packet of a readymade packet of an instant soup when we go for grocery shopping,mostly it would be sweet corn soup packet.No one in my family will order tomato soup or like towards it, but things changed after our trip during summer.When we went for a short trip to Coorg we had an opportunity to taste tomato soup with bread sticks.It was totally yummy and we all started liking this soup.
