by CHEF Kishore
Your personal chef . 

The Elixir of life . 

I have learnt this recipe On a biking road-trip from a great ayurvedic vaidya in the Himalayas(roadtrip mentioned in detail in my " about the author " section on this blog ) This beverage has anti aging properties & tremendous health benefits.


Ingredients :- 
300 ml milk(Tabela milk-boiled&cooled )
7-10 strands of kesar
1 tsp desi Ghee
12-15 khaarik(Dry dates)(chop them&discard seeds)
2-3 crushed green cardamoms 
A tiny pinch of nutmeg+Ceylon cinnamon+Salt 
15 gm honey 


Add all ingredients to milk & store overnight in a covered vessel/container in the fridge,its ready to be consumed the next morning . 


**Boil(&cool)the milk,add it to a blender& blend all the dates along with the milk&consume it hot or cold-have it plain,use it in ur tea-make a super healthy porridge Using oats/lapsi/ragi flour

**The soaked dates will have bloomed up to almost twice in volume /size,chop them roughly&consume plain.


** The soaked saffron,honey,cardamom,nutmeg,Ghee all contribute in adding their natural goodness&aroma to the milk,Making it extremely aromatic&heavenly.This milk is unbelievably,delicious,nutritious,full of trace minerals,vitamins,essential amino acids&potassium . 


**The dahi(curd) made from this naturally sweetened milk is extremely delicious & a complete dessert in its own right .


FOOTNOTES :- 
**Consumption of the soaked dates gives you a feeling of fullness thus replacing your breakfast,cutting down your calorie consumption aiding weight loss or helps you in maintaining your ideal body weight . 


**Dates soaked in milk&consumed with saffron& honey is an ancient aphrodisiac,if consumed regularly,It helps in increasing the stamina+semen count in men & strengthens the reproductive system,reduces menstrual related abdominal pain in women .


**This beverage delays the graying of hair in both sexes


**This beverage is an excellent cure for an alcoholic hangover . 


** Regular consumption of this beverage makes your skin blemish free&gives it a natural glow . 


** If you are planning on using low fat milk or cutting out ghee/honey from the recipe because its fattening or not using kesar because it costs a 
bomb,then,this recipe is not meant for you ,You will be committing sacrilege by killing the goodness that these preservative free ingredients contribute to the recipe .Plus some things are sacred and should not be fiddled with .
There is an alternative for you ,Please have a glass of complan+ some multivitamin tablets and ignore this recipe .

Halwaai masala

Kitchen tip # 86

by CHEF Kishore
Your Personal Chef.

Halwaai masala 


I m going to share a century old ,Traditional halwaai's secret recipe from Sindh with you .
My forefathers owned a huge dairy farm ,were traditional Old school Halwaai's & owned a massive sweetmeat shop in Sindh since 1870 
This Legendary recipe has been passed on to me as a family heirloom recipe by my mother who learnt it from my grandfather in the early 70's who learnt it from my great grandfather who in turn learnt it from his father .They used to make huge quantities of this masala on a Sil batta (Mortar and pestle ) back then. 
For the first time ever , I am sharing this amazingly Mind-blowing delicious & extremely versatile recipe with anyone at all . 
(Grandpa said that they used to make a hot milk beverage  by adding this blend to reduced hot milk and sell it as a suhaag raat(wedding night)beverage for the groom.) 


Ingredients :- 
1.5 Tablespoons Desi ghee (Clarified butter) for frying 
(Group A- Whole spices ) 
  • 5 gms  kali mirri (black peppercorns)
  • 5 gm  jaiphal (nutmeg )
  • 20 gm green elaichi(cardamom)
  • 2 inch piece of ceylon Daaalchinni( sri lankan curled cinnamon not cassia bark )

(Group B- Dry fruits )
  • 150 gm Mamra Badam (Almonds)
  • 150 gm pista (pistachios)
  • 100 gm chilgoza/Neja  (pine nuts )
  • 50 gm Chironji (Charoli) 
     








(Group C-Miscellenous)

  • 50gm sukki gulaab patti(dried rose petals )
  • 1  gm kesar (saffron)
  • 1/2 tsp Haldi powder(turmeric) (for a yellow hue to the masala -completely optional )




prep# 1
Fry the group A ingredients in a Non stick pan on a low flame in 1/2  tablespoon ghee.Let the mixture cool completely and add it to a mixer-grinder and grind the mixture to a fine powder,pass it through a fine metal sieve and keep the powder aside 

prep # 2 
Then in the same pan,add 1 tablespoon ghee and fry the  the group B ingredients for a bit , gently roasting them and remove from the flame,let them cool down completely and keep them aside . 

Now finalize the recipe :-
add prep #1 & 2 and group C ingredients to the mixer grinder 
pulse the mixer grinder a bit at a time
 ( 2-3 seconds max. to avoid lumping -because the dry fruits contain oil and over grinding could result in a lumpy mixture)
until the mixture transforms in a coarse  powder .

store the masala in a air tight container in the fridge . 
Shelf life - About 2 months 

**Use it as Dhoodh  Masala powder (mix one tsp of this mithaai powder to 30 ml of chilled milk & mix with 200 ml hot milk )

**Use it in your Indian dessert recipes as the main flavoring like Kaju kesar katli , Mithaai squares,Laddoos,Basundi ,Kesar rabdi ,Dry fruit ice cream or Milk shake ,Mishti doi & so on .

**Can as a final garnish on Sweet rice,Saffron rice,Milk shake,Icecreams,Shahi tukda,Gulab jamuns,Rasgullas,Rabdi,Taayiri,Lapsi halwa,China grass,Falooda,Kharwas,Seera,Kheer,Payasam,Palada pradhaman,Sheer korma,Phirnee,Lassi,Mithaais and so on 


**sprinkle it on  savory recipes as a final garnish on your  Biryani,Pulao,Kebabs,Tikkas,Qorma,Kaaliya,Paaya,sheerwah,Haleem,Harees,Bhuna gosth,Rogan josh and so on -the possibilities are simply endless .  


**Pack it in a plastic seal-able pouch and put in in a small transparent decorative container or bottle , wrap it up like a gift with ribbons and a bow tie and gift it to your relatives  and friends for Diwali .They will bless you for it and you will have earned life long fans of your culinary skills.

FRAGRANT PULAO GARAM MASALA



Kitchen tip # 85
















by CHEF Kishore

Your Personal Chef.


Let me teach you two quick recipes to improve the 
quality of your pulao by 

at least a 100 % ,So instead of just a plain boring home made pulao,it 

transforms into a 5 star restaurant quality pulao . 


FRAGRANT PULAO GARAM MASALA 

Ingredients :-



120 gm shahi jeera (caraway seeds)


40 gm saunf (Fennel seeds )

6 sticks cinnamon (use only Ceylon cinnamon not cassia bark) 

50 Hara Elaichi(green cardamom )

10 Kala Elaichi(black cardamom )

10 Laung (cloves)

10 Triphal (black seeds only) 

10 gm Kabab chinni (all spice)

5 pieces Star phool(star anise )

10 gm javitri (mace)

1/2 Piece nutmeg (jaiphal)

Method :- 

On a slow flame , place a non stick pan ,add 1 tablespoon of desi ghee to it . add the masala s in this sequence , tossing well before adding the following masala . add Shahi jeera after a minute add saunf > Ceylon daalchini > green & black elachi > laung > triphal >kabab chini > star phool > javitri > nutmeg.
Mix all the masalas well and then turn off the flame . 

Let this mixture cool down completely . grind it to a fine powder in a mixer grinder . pass it
through a metal sieve at least thrice to remove chunky particles . Store in an airtight 
container in the fridge 

Fragrant pulao essence water 

Mix the following together. 

200 ml water 

5 drops kesar essence (saffron)

10 drops kewra essence (screw pine)

4 drops gulaab essence (rose)

5 drops Khus essence (vetiver)

Store in the fridge at all times .Shake well before use every time. 

(use a dropper for precise measurements - while using essence /extracts always remember -
A little goes a long way. ) 

How to use these two blends in your pulao :- 

I assume you know to make pulao & anyways this is not a pulao recipe, follow my tips of 
how to use this masala optimally in any pulao of your choice.
Heat ghee in the vessel you intend to make pulao in ,now add 2 bay leaves , 1 teaspoon of black peppercorns and proceed by adding ur regular ingredients as per your pulao recipe , add the aforementioned pulao masala powder along with the veggies/meat and mix well. 

Do not add any other whole spice (except saffron) if you are using this recipe 

Proceed making the pulao ,When the rice is almost cooked .Add 20-30ml of the 
above-mentioned fragrant pulao water depending on how fragrant would you prefer your 
pulao to be .

Optional 
Garnish with sliced roasted almonds & pistachios ,some lime slices, a sprig of fresh mint or parsley & a tomato rose .
