While talking one day to my dietician friend Debjani https://instagram.com/gupta.debjani?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= , she recommended drinking coconut water daily for glowing skin, digestion, heat etc. and to add carrot and some fruits to make a glow drink. Well, this suggestion of hers came really handy, not for skin glow though (I’m yet to try and test for it) but definitely as a cooling smoothie in this heat. In my previous post I’d mentioned about Heatwave and Twinkle toes still going to school. Well, she has been unwell due to heatwave and all my regular old remedies came to test as she’s getting really choosy along with being cranky with weakness. So apart from changes in her diet and break from school, I decided to give this smoothie a try. As this one has Coconut water, Carrot and Mango I was sure that her need for staying hydrated with adequate supply of minerals and vitamin might be met with this smoothie while being delicious as well. First attempt in making her drink was a bit hit n miss, but next day with umbrella on her glass, next day with strawberry, she actually frowned but still finished her glass❤️
A food enthusiast who finds cooking a stress buster. A core Rajasthani married to a Bengali, my kitchen is always happily churning out dishes covering both the states as well as many other experiments including all things sweet :)
Baking has never been a part of my growing years and messing around in the kitchen schedule. Primarily because baking without egg never seemed like an option...why ? Well this goes wayyy back. I am a Bhargava who are strictly vegetarians by choice and religion. Hence no onion, garlic , eggs etc can even enter the house..forget the kitchen. But growing years of every generation had their share of baked goodies which always had eggs.
My Grandfather ( Mother's father) used to assist in a bakery during his college days in Rawalpindi..this was before India's independence and hence all the bakeries etc were British. My grampa still swears by the taste of all the amazing patisseries and almond milk etc. My mother had her share during her Convent school days and so did I. For my father there was a twist, by the time he grew up his mother had allowed onion and eggs in kitchen ....yippeee. But then eventually every one grows up and the religion factor comes into the picture. Hence till date at my Mother's place no onion in the kitchen. But i married a bengali who was nowhere near to be a vegetarian. So after many... failed, not so successful, will do, oohh good, disaster, can you keep the taste consistent, too much salt and loads of patience i have finally managed to start cooking the way dishes are supposed to be. Hence my blog focuses on baked goodies, vegetarian Bhargava food and Bengali food that i have learned from my husband and In laws. Not to miss the name SweetJaw as i cannot stay away from sweet ..not in any form but i guess cakes, cookies, tarts, pastries, Indian sweets in fact any things that is either baked, deep fried, and has chocolate , icing sugar is bound be the best. So my blog's name is shamelessly SweetJaw
