Laddoos

Brahma for creation & Shiva for destruction, Hot summers & Cold winters, Beautiful (e.g. Me) & Ugly, Smart (e.g. Me again) & Dumb,  Happiness & Sadness, Pleasure & Pain, Success & Failure, Hope & Despair, Birth & Death....God has balanced the universe well...


And coming to dishes we have Easy and Difficult dishes. Did you feel my earlier dishes were difficult? :) Let me balance it out with this easy dish.

You know Newton's laws..How can you not know? :) Remember the number of jokes made around it in college? :).... Here is one for old times sake..


First law: A boy in love with a girl, continue to be in love with her and a girl in love with a boy, continue to be in love with him, until on unless any external agent(brother or father of the gal) comes into play and break the legs of the boy.

Second law: The rate of change of intensity of love of a girl towards a boy is directly proportional to the instantaneous bank balance of the boy and the direction of this love is same to as increment or decrements of the bank balance.


Third law: The force applied while proposing a girl by a boy is equal and opposite
to the force applied by the girl while using her sandals
I however like this Einstein's law joke better :)

"Love can neither be created nor be destroyed, it can only be transferred from one boy/girl friend to another" ;)


Anyway Princess's third law is this...For every Difficult dish in Princessownkitchen there is an Easy dish

Less is good sometimes in life....Less worries, Less forced responsibilities, Less fears, Less guilt, Less work in office :) & some other times more is good....More money in pocket, More choices in life, More knowledge in profession, More things to hope for in life




Today however we are trying to balance in favor of the less side and for this you need very less number of ingredients..The list below..
  1. Roasted dalia -1cup 
  2. Sugar-powdered-1/2- cup
  3. Ghee- 1/4 cup
  4. Cardamom powder- 1/4 spoon
  5. Cashew- 10
  6. Turmeric powder- pinch

And here are the easy steps :)
  1. Grind Roasted Dalia into fine powder. (Not necessarily as fine as Ponds.. please remember its not for face...I really love guys who apply powder on their face :).. can avoid them without second thought :)) 
  2. Add Powdered sugar and cardamom powder along with crushed cashews (Adds Sweetness, essence  and taste required )
  3. Turmeric powder to enrich the color ( Looks are important to cheat ;) .. Gore rang pe fida kitne ladke ... Jo aaj kal bangalore ke galiyom me bhadke :))
  4. Heat the ghee and add it slowly by stirring the mixture ( Ghee is a bonding agent -- Kuch zyada chipak gaye to aazad na ho paoge...zara sambhalke mere dost!! :) ) 
  5. Mix everything well  till it becomes soft and and start pressing it with hands giving a marble shape (small & round)

And there you go ...You easy bhi and Tasty bhi dish is ready... My dish is most like a "Perfect Wife"... Sweet, Soft , Beautiful with Lots of love and bonding ..  "Perfect Wife" might be a myth but my dish is real...So better spend time on this than that ;)

Dedicated to all bachelors.... Enjoy ;)
