Watermelon Cooler.


With summer at its mightiest, fruits and coolers are what my kids demand now. I made this simple cooler with watermelon and grapes for Nidhi.....studying Maths....for her upcoming 10th exam.

I used a melon scoop to scoop out the melons and added black grapes.......then sprinkled chaat masala.....chilled it for 20 min.

You can use different fruits like orange, green grapes, musk melon, cubed apples, cubed mangoes......what ever is there in your fruit basket....make sure you chill it before serving.


How I made this:
Water melon: 1/4 of one big melon.
Black grapes: 250 gms.
Chaat masala: 1/2 tsp.
Mint leaves: 2 chopped (optinal).

Method:
Scoop the melon with a melon scoop into a small bowl, mix in grapes and sprinkle chaat masala.
Chill for 20 min.
Serve immediately.

Perfect summer cooler for kids.
Enjoy.

Summer Specials:
Raw Mango Sherbet.
Fruit Chaat.

Pidiyum Kozhiyum Recipe - How To Make Kerala Style Kozhi Pidi - Kerala Recipes

Pidiyum kozhiyum or kottayam style pidi is a traditional knanaya cuisine ; these rice dumpling have a thick gravy like sauce, unlike the dry versions of Malabar kakka roti or kozhi pidi. Knanaya style pidi is served with varutharacha kozhi curry. Traditionally, pidi is associated with baby shower ie when the daughter-in-law is sent to her parents house for delivery, it is customary for the mother-in-law to make kozhi pidi and we knanaya people still follow these traditions. My main aim is to preserve this recipe; so that the future generations can enjoy this wholesome dish.
