Doodh Poha/Rice Flakes In Milk#SundayFunday

I love to have a warm, balanced and healthy breakfast. Doodh Poha is one of those easy, quick healthy breakfast to make. Doodh is milk,  Poha is rice flakes. This is a delicacy from the Guajarati and Maharastrian  cuisine, which is a satisfying warm breakfast. 

Serves 2 - 3
Cup 250Ml
Ingredients
500Ml Milk
¼ Cup Sugar
½ Cup Poha/ Rice Flakes
A Pinch Cardamom Powder
A Pinch Saffron Strands
Dry Fruits as per your choice
I used Almond, Pistachios, Figs, Raisins, Apricots

Method 

Wash the poha and drain it in a strainer and keep aside.

In a large sauce pan, boil the milk , when it boils let it simmer for 5 minutes. Then add the sugar and saffron strands, stir till sugar melts. Switch off the flame, add the washed and drained poha. Stir it add rest of the ingredients and let it sit till warm. 

Serve into individual bowls and add the chopped dry fruits. Enjoy this warm, a healthy and delicious breakfast which is also light on the tummy.

Fig / Anjeer Milk Shake #FoodieExtravaganza

Dried Figs or Fresh Figs are very commonly available almost everywhere and this is widely consumed in India and other countries. Figs, whether fresh or dried, are rich in powerful antioxidants.The fig trees can live up to 100 years, that why many people in India touch their head to this tree , so that, they too will have long and healthy life. 

Figs have a unique taste and texture. They are sweet and chewy. The smoothness of the fruit and the crunchiness of its seeds make a beautiful combination to eat. Dried figs are available throughout the year whereas fresh figs are available in summer.

Here the weather is so hot and sticky, this drink is perfect to cool your body. I,  have not added any extra sugar for sweetness. Wanted the natural taste and sweetness of the Figs. This is a diabetic friendly drink. Can add a tablespoon or more of caster sugar according to your taste.
