Sher Khurma



Sher Khurma takes me back to my naughty part from childhood. I used to climb compound wall when I was 9 years old just to enjoy the warmth of sher khurma and my neighbour Aunt's love! Auntie never forget me to call for bowl of sher khurma. And always on the way back home she used to come with me with a big dabba full of sher khurma to drop me at my house to make sure I don't get scolding for jumping off the wall from mumma! I miss her on every Eid! But I still demand her to make some even if it is not even Eid whenever I get chance to visit my parents house.

                On this Eid I got lucky! While talking with one of my daughter's classmate's mother about sher khurma and Eid! I couldn't stop myself sharing my memories and remembering my Auntie... And next day my friend surprised me with this box of memories and sher khurma! 
That's the advantage of being a mother 😀.

         Sher khurma is patience. You learn to cook slow and steady! Making sher khurma is a time taking process but end results are just heavenly! You just need milk, sevmaiya ( vermicelli), sugar lots of dry fruits and ghee (clarified butter). Fry vermicelli in ghee on a slow flame. Boil milk until it starts to thicken and let it come to half in quantity.
Then add vermicelli, chopped dry fruits amd again let it boil on very slow flame while steering continually. When vermicelli is cooked properly which doesn't take time. Then trun the flame off and add ghee. Let that pot of great patience sit for while and you soak in the aroma in your house. Tada!! The Eid special Sher Khurma is ready!!!

                  This is festive special recipe you won't get in any restaurant! So make some friends who know to cook sher khurma! And don't hesitate to demand otherwise you will loos the opportunity to swim around the heavens! Or if you love to learn then my friend just go to youtube and make this bowl for yourself or your loved ones!

Varan Fal

papad               This lockdown blessed me a long stay at my hometown. Beautiful childhood memories, simple homemade food and long chat with neighbours who are family now! My neighbour Aunt cooks amazing food. When I was child I used to play knowingly in front of her house every evening hoping she would call me inside and feed me that aromatic, mouthwatering dish whatever she has made for dinner. And this trick worked always.. 😉                Varan fal is one of the comfort dish I always adore. This is something special because every house has it's own version of Varan fal. Today my Aunt made varan fal for me, so how can I forgot this dish to share with you!              Basic preparations are same in each recipe, just spices or the way of making is varies. My Aunt makes it with mix lentils like toor dal (pigeon pea), chana dal ( Split chickpea), moong dal ( yellow split mung) Urad dal ( Split black gram) are pressure cooked together with turmeric and salt calld var

Crispy Millet bhakri with brinjal curry.

             Summer is round the corner and this menu poped up in my mind. This is one of the special menu for me. Dharwadi bhakri, kala masla vangi bhaji, kairichi chatni. My neighbour auntie introduced this lip smacking crunchy flatbread to me. This flatbread is called Dharwadi bhakri, means crunchi millet flatbread which belongs to Bidar. Maharashtra and Karnataka border is called Bidar.                    Millet flatbreads are popular accross India. But this dharwadi bhakri is little different as it can be stored for months. Usually me & my daughter like this with special peanut chutney made in mortar and pestle with perticular type of peanuts called Solapuri peanut.                   Vangyachi bhaji is brinjal curry made with special spices paste which is dark in colour that's why it is called kala masala. Kala means black. Dry coconut, dried red chilli, garlic, onion, poopy seeds, sesame seeds are roasted on a flame, then kanda lasun masala with roasted spices
