MINT SHARABT/MINT RASAM/PUDINA SHARBAT/SUCO DE MENTA/PUDINA RASAM/SUMMER DRINKS

Actually we are in winter with cold breezing winds..I don`t like winter personally,but still Iam trying to spend with cool mind.....Winter brings cold,rains,heavy winds n finally every one in the family starts suffering with cold n cough....MAHADEV attacked on chocolates for the first time on last few days back  n now he is with cough n MAHADHIP don`t likes to wear socks n jacket,SO,obviously without second option he is with cold,cough n fever now....It`s really one of the toughest job to take care of kids in this season.

If it`s winter, I  like to enjoy the weather with a cup of tea along with hot mirchi bajjis If possible..But It`s very very difficult to find besan flour N I missed informing to bring when DH was in India...Hmmm.After coming to here I changed allot n forgot so many foods like pani puri,pav bhaji,bajji, pure fresh sweets,flowers like this many more....Now My big wish is want to taste all foods which I missed here.Just Waiting for the Day......

O.K..O.K...I`l  give a break here.. Coming to the Recipe-It was in my  draft list form a long time..The reason why Iam posting this now is Presently the  people from other sides  are in hot summer n I thought this may gives refreshing with little bit health touch for them..Mint leaves are very rich with  medicinal  properties..N helps in digestion system,gas trouble,headaches etc..If you are interested to know more here you have some info..check this....

                         
I regularly buys MINT leaves to make chutneys,to use in biryanis n pulav n to make BUTTER MILK GREEN N  mostly I prepares this drink..Here the INGS which I used are very familiar and mostly they makes your stomach clean.People who likes to weight loss can make this in large quantity thrice in  a week N for every 1-2 hrs can take a glass....Now Iam in the category of weight loss n trying to control my taste buds very hardly....HEHEHE..

 we have 15-18  types of Mint.Here which you are seeing is different with regular one n it`s available in  all  seasons...

I don`t have so  many sweet memories of my childhood except very very few...And the biggest sad was we lost our Dad on may 13th  when I was 14.N my little younger bro was just 7yrs old.The same day I realized that the relations are not for ever n every one should leave this world when they completes their life span..Amma was depressed for few months and later she started working full time for us..Amma is the very brave n strong lady which I know in this world very familiarly..She is stubborn n strong hearted person..After Dad expire She started working and til today she is doing same job..Nowadays she is suffering with knee pains n running a small general store at home.She never likes to sit at home and says woman is the back bone of the home.So,have to work if possible other wise have to care of of the family with perfect maintenance....

May be I look like my Dad,but I feel the characteristics are my Mom.Like stubborn,strongness,brave,honest and hard working..Hehee...Coming to my brothers My younger bro is interested in cooking and agreed with his request and now he is working in a famous hotel...And lit one is interested in CA and preparing for the exams along  studying degree...

AMMA..This Recipe  is for you...You gave me every thing.I know you loves me allot and thinks every second for me n for my sweet bros...I know you never asks for gifts or other else but A heartful hug n kiss which are very precious for you...LOVE YOU AMMA. 

HAPPY MOTHER`S DAY TO ALL. .ARE N`T WE NEED A SPECIAL TO CELEBRATE FOR MOMS..

I was emotional,I just remembered all these suddenly when I saw this pics while updating..
Because,AMMA  mostly prefers light food for dinners and often she makes Semiya upma or rotis..Can you believe?I never helped mom except only sundays(that too rarely)in kitchen and she was also so sweet that she never annoyed me.While she rolls rotis I sits near by her and waits for the last dough ball..After she completes making rotis I just grab that remaining  dough and makes sugar rotis only for me...hehehehe..B coz,AMMA don`t likes adding sugar and says sugar/sweets are not healthy..But Daughter is also same like mom.(Stubborn)I just completes my rotis with adding  lots of sugar and finally requests amma to pan fry them..hehehe.Such a lazy girl Iam..You know this rotis tastes awesome when you eat  warm..I really enjoys this rotis.But after my kids i stopped making these and for the recipe specially I  made these n you can see the pics that how yummy they looking??...Are n`t they!!!
