Easy Breakfast Dragonfruit Yogurt Jar Recipe using Meron Agar Agar

Making yogurt at home is very easy. Not only it tastes delicious, it also saves some grocery money. After making this recipe, I am eating more yogurt than ever before.

The method I have adapted is quite basic. You don’t need any special equipment to make this. You can even make a batch of this and store it for 4-5 days in the refrigerator.

This tastes delicious to have for breakfast. You can add different types of ingredients to make it healthy & delicious.

What do you need to make yogurt at home?

To make yogurt, all you need is milk, flavoring ingredient, and two basic starters. Full fat milk provides a more creamy texture and is quite flavorful than other milk.

For the starters, you need Organic Yogurt & Agar Agar. You can buy organic yogurt from the market. Make sure it has “live active cultures” used in the preparation. You can find this in the ingredients written on the pack. The live cultures are actually what turns milk into yogurt.

Meron Agar Agar China Grass Powder

Here I have used Meron Agar Agar – China Grass Powder. This is an animal-free ingredient. It is a certified vegan product made with seaweeds. This is a perfect vegetarian substitute for gelatin, with superior thickening properties. It helps set yogurt better.

You can buy Meron Agar Agar from Meron, Flipkart, Bakerykart or Amazon.

RECIPE FOR BREAKFAST DRAGONFRUIT YOGURT JAR

Yogurt Jar using Meron Agar Agar

Ingredients for Yogurt:

  • ½ tsp Meron Agar Agar – China Grass Powder
  • 1 ¼ cup of full-fat Milk +  ¼  cup Milk for diluting Agar Agar
  • Puree of one medium-sized Dragon Fruit
  • 1/2 tsp Organic Yoghurt
  • Pinch of Pink Color (Optional)

For Yogurt Topping:

  • Chopped Dragon Fruit
  • Mixed Roasted Nuts & Seeds (Flax Seeds, Almonds, Pumpkin Seeds, Muskmelon Seeds, Sunflower Seeds)
  • Chia Seeds

Method:

  • Preparing Agar Agar – In a bowl, dilute Agar Agar in 1/4th cup of milk and set aside for 5 minutes. This helps to get a smooth texture.
  • Heating the milk – Pour the milk into a vessel and heat on low flame. Turn off the flame right before it starts boiling. Stir the milk gently as it heats to make sure the bottom doesn’t scorch.
  • Bringing the milk to the right temperature – Let the milk cool until it is just warm to touch. Stir occasionally to prevent a skin from forming. (Though if one does form, you can remove it using a spoon.)
  • Prepping yogurt & agar agar to add to milk – Add organic yogurt to diluted agar agar milk and whisk well. Add this to the warm milk and whisk well until you see a smooth texture.
  • Adding Dragonfruit – Add pureed Dragon fruit & color to this milk and mix well.
  • Setting Yogurt – Pour the yogurt in a jar in which you want to set. Make sure you do not move the jar for 1-2 hours until this sets perfectly. Once it sets, refrigerate, and serve chilled.

Topping the Yogurt Jars for Breakfast

  • Top the jar with Mixed Nuts & Seeds, chia seeds, and chopped dragon fruit.
  • You can also top this up with oats, bananas, cereal mixes or any other ingredient you would prefer.

I am so excited to share with you all that I am fe I am so excited to share with you all that I am featured in your and my favourite store - IKEA! 

Last year, I was approached by IKEA to be a part of their campaign called “Store Who You Are".

I had the opportunity to work with their team virtually to bring my storage story to life through pictures and videos. Along with my husband, we created the most beautiful setups in our home, showcasing how I use different products to keep my tea shelf organized and functional. The team at IKEA made a beautiful setup and showcased how I can remake my space for better and more organized storage.

Fast forward to today, I am beyond excited to share that I am now featured on IKEA.com and will be featured in IKEA stores across the globe! Not sure if I would make up to the walls of IKEA Mumbai (where I reside), but hopefully somewhere in India! 

Also, a video featuring my story would be soon on IKEA social channels. It’s hard to put into words how surreal this feels.

I never imagined that my passion for writing about tea could lead me to something this big!

I am grateful to each one who helped me reach here!

Masala Chai is amongst the most liked teas in Indi Masala Chai is amongst the most liked teas in Indian houses. During monsoon and winter, masala chai tastes even better because of the punch of spices and aroma. 

I tried Masala Chai from @danke.tea.foods, and here's my review. 

Aroma: Typically, masala chais have a prominent aroma which easily helps one identify the spices in it. Most of these teas may have a spice that may dominate and make or break your entire tea drinking experience. One good thing about Danke Tea Masala Chai is, it has a very balanced aroma of spices. 

Ingredients in @danke.tea.foods Masala Tea : Assam CTC Black Leaf Tea, Cinnamon, Black Pepper, Cardamom, Clove, Nutmeg & Dried Ginger.

Color: On brewing, the tea has not very dark color. If you like a dark color of tea, you will have to add more tea leaves and brew for a lesser duration.

Taste: It has the right kick of spices and a sweet finish that will make you crave for more. 

Cost: They have packaging of 250gms available on their website which costs 155 Rs i.e. 620 Rs for a kg. As compared to other brands, the cost is quite decent and affordable.

All in all, @danke.tea.foods masala chai is a delightful, spicy and warm cup of tea perfect for the cold days.
