Mango rasayana - Mavina hannu rasayana - Ambe rasayana

Mango rasayana recipe - Mango rasayana is a coconut based traditional dessert of  Karnataka prepared with mango, coconut and jaggery. It has creamy texture and delicious sweet taste of  jaggery and mango. Coconut paste and the cardamoms enhance the flavour. To get a smooth texture, coconut milk can be substituted in place of coconut paste. But we like the rough texture. So I have used coconut paste. I make rasayana with mashmelon (chibud), muskmelon, ripe banana (plantain) and mango. This is one of the best desserts I like to make often. You can prepare it within few minutes and during mango season it is usually served as a dessert after meal. Some even like to enjoy with pooris.

Tawa paneer tikka recipe - Tawa fried paneer tikka

Tawa paneer tikka recipe - This tikka  is a delicious snack which can be served as a starter or as a side dish. Instead of oven, this tikka is prepared by shallow frying on tawa, hence it is called as tawa tikka. This is one of my favorite paneer dishes that I would like to prepare often. This snack is crispy from outside and soft from inside. The roasted onion and capsicum adds an exotic flavor and taste to the tikka.
