Roti Ka Laddoo

By
Many times in the kitchen we end up having extra rotis by the end of the meal. Why not use those to make an interesting and easy to make sweet-dish? Here's the recipe of roti laddoo which is an instant and healthy recipe to charge your day!


Roti's or phulka's as we call them has a low glycemic index. It is rich in vitamin B, iron, calcium, magnesium and potassium. It is made from whole wheat flour mixed with water so when it is roasted, it's dehydrated which increases the shelf life. People allergic to gluten can opt for other millets like jowar, bajra, ragi which are healthier alternatives. It has many health benefits and is one of the healthiest things to consume when hungry.


It’s a great preworkout meal, and I have it before an intense workout like a long run. It give the right amount of carbs and sugar to kick start an intense workout.

Ingredients:
6 roti's
3 tbsp crushed jaggery
2 tbsp ghee(melted)
1.5 tbsp chopped almonds (optional)
1/8 tsp cardamom powder (optional)


Method:
1. Take leftover rotis / chapathis, tear it roughly. Transfer to a dry mixer jar.
2. Add jaggery, grind to a coarse mixture. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
3. Add ghee, chopped almonds and cardamom powder. Mix it well.
4. Take the mixture press, hold tight and shape them as laddoos. Repeat to finish the mixture.
5. Store in a clean dry container.


RECIPE NOTES
• You can use leftover chapathis or tawa paratha's. or can make it from fresh roti's too.
• I added chopped almonds you can add other nuts like cashews too.
• Keeps well for 2 days in room temperature.

Low Calorie No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake

By
As the post title suggests, Low Calorie No-Bake Chocolate Cheesecake, you must be wondering, if there is chocolate and its a cheesecake, how could it be low calorie - well, its not really low calorie, but it would be definitely lower than an actual "cheesecake" :) This cheesecake is a fast track recipe which can be thrown in within a few minutes. I don't follow the classic baked cheesecake method. I've tried earlier and failed. But later I came across the no-bake cheesecake recipe and that became the base for all kinds of cheesecakes that I have prepared earlier. Coming to the ingredients, I don't use cream cheese which is the base for any cheesecake, because, firstly, its very high in calories and secondly its very not easily available here. So see we saved some calories there, with a little price paid on the taste. However, I can bet most people won't be able to make out the difference whether there is cream cheese or something else. I'm preparing...
