			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p>Life
without sweetness is boring. Sweets have always been the integral part
of Indian cuisine. Perhaps no where in the world you would come across
such a variety of sweets that are predominantly available in every nook
and corner of the market streets in India. Along with chat-patas the
sweet is another favorite item for evening snacks as well as after meal
servings. The sweet dishes are different from Western dishes in the
sense they are prepared never with the concept of calorie but taste and
richness. They aid in digestion and are normally consumed after taking
a good meal.</p>
<p>An
Indian meal almost remains incomplete without the sweet dishes. Here
are few recipes of popular Indian sweets which are available in all
corners of the country.</p>
<h2>Khir</h2>
<div style="text-align: center;"><img
 style="width: 240px; height: 180px;" alt="Kheer Recipe"
 src="http://www.flavours-of-india.com/images/kheer_recipe.jpg"></div>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;"><span
 style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'; font-weight: bold;">Ingredients
you would require:</span><br>
milk
2 liters, 4 tablespoon of sugar, 200 gm of pure basmati rice, few
raisins, dry fruits, sliced almonds, chopped cahew nuts, a little bit
of permitted color if required and bay leaves.</p>
<p>Heat
the milk in a large pan and simmer it till it reduces to 3 quarters of
its original volume. Now add the rice on it and let it get cooked for
10 minutes. The milk volume will be now reduced to half. Add sugar and
heat for 1 minute. It is time to add the bay leaves, raisins, cashew
nuts, almonds and dry fruits. Keep stirring while you put the
ingredients in the khir. Cook for another 3-4 minutes. The khir is
ready. But donâ€™t serve it hot. Khir is usually served when it is cold
and the taste of cold khir is very captivating after a good meal.</p>
<h2>Rosogulla</h2>
<div style="text-align: center;"><img
 style="width: 240px; height: 177px;" alt="Rosogulla Recipe"
 src="http://www.flavours-of-india.com/images/rosogulla_recipe.jpg"></div>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;"><span
 style="font-weight: bold;">Ingredients you would require:</span><br>
1
kg of cottage cheese, sugar 1 kg, water 1 Â½ liters, ghee 5 tablespoons,
semolina 2 tbsp, standard-flour 2 tbsp, rose water few drops and
cardamom powder. Sometimes permitted color and flavors are also used.</p>
<p>How
to Prepare Rosogulla?</p>
<p>Pour
the water in a deep pan and add sugar. Boil the mixture for 20-30
minutes till the volume is reduced to Â¾.&nbsp; Put aside the syrup
prepared. Now it is time to prepare the rosogulla balls. Take a mid
size bowl which can hold the cottage cheese. Add the cottage cheese to
ghee, standard flour, semolina, and cardamom powder. Mix the entire
ingredients together fine that they form dough. It must be soft enough
to make the balls. Knead the prepared dough evenly until your palm
becomes oily.</p>
<p>Now
you can make the balls of rosogolla using the dough. Make the balls not
less than 1 Â½ inches of diameter. Add the prepared balls in the sugar
syrup and get them cooked again for another 20-30 minutes. Now you will
notice the balls turning spongy. Put off the flame and let it cool.
After 15 minutes you should add the rose water to it. The rosogullas
are ready to be served after one hour.</p></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p>Indian
food finds a good place in the menu of so many famous restaurant and
food joints when a majority of population in the world is making their
ways of life totally vegetarian. Indian food is known for their both
vegetarian and non vegetarian styles of cooking. But what attract most
people to it are the richness, nourishment and taste that is maintained
even in vegetarian dishes. Perhaps no other country or place could have
such delicious vegetarian food as prepared in India.</p><p>The common
image of vegetarian food in the West is that - they are tasteless, full
of green vegetables, and some cream on them for beating the raw taste.
This is what is actually thought about vegetable dishes in most
countries in the west. They either boil the vegetables with some salt
or serve with cream, sausage or other ingredients. But when you come to
India and taste the vegetarian dishes, the whole concept of vegetarian
food as tasteless plates change. They can be more delicious and
aromatic than non-vegetarian food.</p><p>The India vegetarian food has
touch of its culture, place and people. Almost every corner of the
nation has some famous vegetarian dishes. They are not simple bowel
filled with vegetables made without any sort of delicacy. Rather they
are more nutritious, rich and healthy food than non-vegetarian dishes.
For instance you take the example of &#8211;mixed vegetable&#8217; a special item
prepared where more than 4-5 vegetables are used and cheese or Soya is
used for additional touch. You won&#8217;t believe the aroma of the vegetable
dish to be a vegetarian one. It smells better than any meat prepared
dish.</p><p>The rich aroma of Indian food is due to the use of spices
of different kinds. You can now learn about them and prepare within
your home some famous vegetarian dishes. Prepare a dish and make your
children and husband relish on it. They would find it difficult to
believe that it is actually a vegetarian dish. It is the exotic style
of Indian cooking with use of spices, ghee, and butter that make them
so delectable.</p><p>The variety of Indian style of cooling of
vegetarian food never makes anything monotonous. You have varied styles
of cooking which are diverse and distinct. If you have tried some North
Indian Punjabi Vegetarian food, you can now try with some Bengali
vegetarian food which are known for their taste and mouth water aroma;
then you have the South Indian dishes, the Goan recipes, Gujarati food,
Maharashtrian exclusive dishes, or Kashmiri vegetarian dishes, sweets
prepared from vegetables like carrots, beats, berries and others.</p></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><p>The light southerly breeze, the crooning cuckoos, the basant bahar melodies-all
  herald the arrival of spring season and then comes the holi festival, adding
  more colors to this sultry weather. No Indian festival is complete without food
  customized for the occasion, same goes for holi too. Each state of India has
  its own delicacies to add their local flavor. From sugar candies to intoxicating
  drinks, there is a mind-boggling range of snacks, sweets and thandais, which
  add more aromas to the southerly spring air. Try and rustle up these holi delicacies.</p>
<h3>Thandai</h3>

<p>Soak the sugar in &frac12; litre of water and set aside. Wash all dry ingredients
  (except cardamom powder), soak in two cups of water and let stand for two hours.
  Grind into a fine paste and mix with water. Strain till you get a dry residue.
