Mysore Pak Recipe -- How to make Mysorepak

Hi, Thank you, friends and viewers. Today I will post how to make Mysore Pak recipe.
Mysorepak is a South Indian sweet made with besan and sugar. After ladoo, Mysore Pak takes the second place in South Indian marriages. It is also kept available to distribute among guests of both sides, bride, and groom.
Crunchy and easily melts sweet loved by one and all. It is not an easy dish to make a lot of tricks and tips have to be followed and we need to be alert while preparing this sweet. Gaining expertise in making this dish needs a lot of patience. Even I am also not expert in making it. I am writing it to keep a note of the ingredients and procedure. Every time I prepare this dish, I forget the ration between the ingredients. So this will also help me for my further preparation.
It has a golden hour like a heart attack patients has for their lives to save. That is the most important time and it's only 15 seconds for it.
Those 15 seconds are very crucial for Mysore Pak to get ready. We need to be alert during that time. If we take it off from the flame before that we get a burfi. If we keep it more than the required time it will turn into crumbles. So be careful while preparing this dish.
I made it during Diwali festival time but posting it a little bit late.

Roasted Red Pepper and Pumpkin Soup Recipe -- How to make Roasted Red Pepper and Pumpkin Soup

hi, Thank you friends and viewers. Today I will post how to make roasted red bell pepper and pumpkin soup recipe.
I got this recipe from different recipe blogs. Mainly I followed Escapades - Culinary Gateways for this soup recipe. I like soups, they are the best appetizers and also tummy friendly. Always prefer to make them at home instead of getting ready-made soup packets. I have already have carrot soup and tomato soup in the blog. Kids also like them as they can skip drinking routine milk with boost or Horlicks.
First time when I came to know about this soup, was a bit hesitant as my people are little fussy about such kind of foods. Still, I tried my luck and all the family members liked it very much. And kids asked me to prepare it again for three or four times. This is the fifth time I made and recorded the procedure. I also uploaded a video of this recipe. Now it has become a regular dish in my household menu. Thanks to Deepa Rajan Karri, who suggested me this dish.

Varan Recipe -- How to make Maharashtra Varan

Hi, Thank you friends and viewers. Today I will post how to make Varan recipe.
Varan is toor dal tempered with ghee and cumin seeds. It is from Maharashtra cuisine, served with rice. It is traditional recipe made almost in every household.
A very light dish. It is made mainly during Ganesh festival season.It is plain and simple. There are numerous variations to this dish. Adding onions, tomatoes and adding other spices all depends on ones choice and taste. My neighbour Usha's sister Shobha gave me this dish. I cross checked with my cousin's wife Priya. Both gave me the same procedure, simple way of making it. Just adding garlic and temper with crushed cumin seeds.
It is served with hot piping rice, so both of them together called as VaranBhaat.
