Instant Immunity Boosting Modak Recipe using GRD Protein Bix

Ganesh Chaturthi is a Hindu festival that celebrates the birthday of Lord Ganesha, the Hindu god of wisdom and success. It is celebrated in many parts of India, and now also in a few regions globally.

Food plays a major role in any celebration. Many kinds of sweets are prepared during Ganesh Chaturthi, and offered to Lord Ganesha as bhog or prasad.

It is said that Modaks were favorite of Lord Ganesha. But this year, due to pandemic, we could not get sweets from outside. So I decided to prepare Modaks at home.

But, along with making sweets, it is also necessary to keep in mind about the health of our family. Which is why I made Immunity Boosting Modaks using GRD Protein Bix.

GRD Protein Bix has been a recent favorite at my place. GRD Bix Diskette is formulated with protein, carbohydrate, vitamins, and minerals. It supports general health, well being, and immunity. It is useful for aiding treatment of general weakness, Anorexia. It has the goodness of puffed rice and contains zero cholesterol.

Key Benefits of GRD Protein Bix:

  • It helps in providing the body with energy

I have made Modaks using my favorite ingredients – Betel Leaf, Ginger Powder, Liquorice Powder, Coconut, GRD Protein Bix Cardamom Flavored, and Condensed Milk. Since I am using Condensed milk, i did not use sugar for this recipe.

METHOD:

  • Discard the stems of 6 betel leaves. The stems have a bold flavor, which may spoil the flavor of modaks.
  • Now take a mixture jar, roughly tear the leaves with your hand and add to the jar.
  • Take 5 GRD Protein Bix, rougly break it with yiur hand and add to the jar.
  • Now add 1/4th cup of condensed milk to this. Blend this mixture till smooth. (You can also use 2 drops of green food color to enhance the color of modaks, but I recommend to avoid doing it)
  • Now in a bowl, add 1 cup of crushed coconut, 1/2 tbsp ginger powder, 1/2 tsbp liquorice powder, 1/2 tbsp mix mukhwas, 1 tbsp condensed milk and the blended mixture.
  • Mix everything together with a spoon. Then, use your hand to combine everything to a smooth dough.
  • Take a small portion in your hand and try to form ladoo. This is to check the binding and consistency of the modak. If it forms a proper shape without breaking, your mixture is perfect. If you feel it is loose, you can add a little coconut.
  • Now take a modak mould, coat it with ghee, and press the mixture on it.
  • On one side, gently press with your finger to make space for stuffing. Stuff gulkand in it, and close the mould.
  • Modak Process
  • Modak Stuff
  • Modak Mould Closed
  • Press the mould. Now open it, and gently unmould the modak.
  • Likewise make all other modaks.

I visited @momostreetindia in Virar yesterday for I visited @momostreetindia in Virar yesterday for lunch and here's how my experience about the food was.

Let's start with the veg steamed momos. These were absolutely delicious! The momos had a perfectly steamed outer layer, which was soft and delicate. The filling was a perfect mix of vegetables and spices that were flavorful and not too overpowering. The accompanying dipping sauce was also tasty and complemented the momos well.

Moving on to the chicken crispy momos, these were also fantastic. The momos were crispy on the outside, and the chicken filling was juicy and good. The combination of the crispy exterior and the tender filling made for an excellent texture. 

Next up were the veg spring rolls, and I must say, these were some of the best I've had! The rolls were crispy on the outside and had a delicious mix of veggies inside. 

Last but not least were the tandoori fries. These were a delightful twist on classic fries! The tandoori seasoning on the fries was just the right amount, giving them a nice kick of flavor without being too spicy. 

This outlet in Virar is a takeaway place but there are a few chairs kept outside if you want to enjoy your food there. The service is a bit slow as they prepare the food fresh in front of you.

Upgrade your wellness routine with a sip of green Upgrade your wellness routine with a sip of green goodness! πŸ΅πŸ’š 

Matcha is a finely ground powder made from green tea leaves. It's known for its vibrant green color and unique flavor profile, but it's also a powerhouse when it comes to health benefits.

One of the biggest benefits of matcha is its high concentration of antioxidants. These powerful compounds help protect your body from free radicals and oxidative stress, which can contribute to a wide range of chronic diseases.

Matcha also contains a unique amino acid called L-theanine, which is known for its calming effects on the mind and body. This makes matcha a great choice for those looking for a natural way to reduce stress and anxiety.

To enjoy the benefits of matcha in a refreshing way during summer, try out Matcha Lemonade recipe!

Simply combine freshly squeezed lemon juice, sugar, water, ice cubes, sifted matcha, and you'll have a delicious and healthy drink that's perfect for a warm day 🌞. 

Sip and enjoy the many benefits of this green superfood!

I had the pleasure of dining at Kerala Cafe today I had the pleasure of dining at Kerala Cafe today and I must say, the food was absolutely divine and comforting! 

The Kerala Style Spinach Soup was a perfect start to the meal - it was flavorful and the crunch of ginger was so good. 

The Thattukada Samosa was a very delicious onion stuffing samosa. Though not something I would recommend to have. My most favourite appetizer here is the Potatoe 65.

The Veg Unlimited Meal was a real standout - the combination of different curries and matta rice made for a satisfying and hearty meal. Their flavors are so good that it will leave you wanting for more.

And to top it off, the Tender Coconut Icecream was simply amazing - the perfect blend of sweetness and creaminess. 

Overall, I highly recommend Kerala Cafe for anyone looking to experience authentic and delicious South Indian cuisine!
