Sitaphal milkshake recipe - Custard apple milkshake

Sitaphal milkshake recipe - The winter season is here but the temperatures are still warm. Climate is  warm during days and cool during nights. Here in India, the season for custard apples or  sitaphal starts from mid-July and ends in late-November. I usually buy custard apples whenever I find nice big ones at a good price, but I buy them hard. In our warm weather, they ripen overnight. Then I keep them in the refrigerator. The custard apple season comes just once a year. I store custard apple pulp in the deep freezer when custard apples are in season.

Butter chakli recipe - Benne chakli - Butter murukku

Butter chakli or Benne chakli recipe - Butter chakli is a very popular crispy and savoury snack prepared all over India during festival seasons like Diwali and Ganesh Chaturthi. It is always fun to make snacks like chakli and shankarpali to treat family and friends.I made this crispy and flavorful chakli by mixing various pulses with rice and I love the combination of these ingredients. The recipe seems to be tedious, but once you master the art of pressing proper shaped chaklis you need not to worry about the other process.
