Welcome Bappa with the goodness of health

Ganesh Chaturthi is one of the most anticipated holidays in India. Bringing Lord Ganesha’ uplifting spirit into one’s home is a goal shared by all.

Festivities are always accompanied with insatiable cravings for sweets. But it is important to be aware of what you eat and how much of it you eat. While we are lured by sweets it is important to avoid excessive sweet consumption.

Read on to try indulging recipes that offer the goodness of health and help you enjoy the festive season without feeling guilty.

Almonds are easy to flavour and go well with a variety of foods. Ayurvedic, Unani, and Siddha scriptures have all emphasised the many health advantages of almonds. Daily consumption of almonds may aid with weight management and type 2 diabetes management as well as heart health.

Almonds also contain significant amounts of magnesium, phosphorus, vitamin B2, and vitamin E.

Gear up to give these 2 nutritious Ganesh Chaturthi recipes a try!

Serves: 4 – 5 people

Ingredients & Quantity

Freshly grated coconut 1 cup

Grinded, Almonds blanched 1/2 cup

Sugar (fine/ breakfast) 1 cup

Desi ghee 1/3 cup

Method

• In a non-stick pan add ghee on a low medium heat and add coconut & almond mixture. Stir to mix well and keep on stirring to prevent the mixture form sticking to the pan or getting burnt, until it begins to leave the sides of the pan, lumping up as one mass. Add sugar and fold it well.

• Apply ghee onto a baking sheet and keep aside.

• Reduce heat to low and continue stirring for a few more minutes until the residue sticking to the sides of the pan starts to look opaque and dry, which means the consistency is nearing almost right for solidifying.

• Remove onto the greased plate / sheet. Mix the dough with greased hands, pat it flat into a neat square with a greased rolling-pin to 1/4 inch thickness. Smooth out the surface if needed.

• As it has cooled partially, cut into equal squares with a knife. Once completely cooled (about an hour or so), separate out the burfis with a flat spatula and store in an airtight container
