I love pink guavas.I can eat this fruit any time of the day,though we usually eat it after dinner with some salt and paprika.I first had this guava juice in a resort we were visiting last year and was quite intrigued about the flavour,they had ginger added to it and the taste was awesome.When I was just talking about that last week,I got reminded of that juice so gave it a shot.It is a simple and flavourful cooler,with minimal ingredients and can be made by kids too,so so easy.Pink guava has added flavour and it’s taste is energising.Very good for...

My daughter is fond of North Indian food and Rajma happens to be her favourite.I always make various rajma varieties at home like sundal,rajma chawal,rajma curry and even rajma salad.

We always look for accompaniments for the main dishes and they are always an added attraction to our main dish.Raitas are good sidedishes for any rice variety and when i made coriander rice last week i also made this capsicum tomato raita.The crunchiness of fried capsicum was well complimented with freshly chopped tomatoes.It is a very quick recipe and can be made by bachelors as well.I am posting this as my first bachelor recipe,so that it will be an easy side dish option for them.Do use fresh and unsour thick curd for better results.See recipe below..
