Lovely Thandi Lassi

I am an almost-everyday Lassi drinker for large part of the year except the cold winters. Lassi is heavenly and divine in any form... always quenching the thirst !!!!!
Lassi is actually yogurt/Dai based mixed with water and served cold at households in the Indian Sub continent. There are many variations of the traditional lassi- like salt, sweet, mixed, water like, thick with cream etc. this is more dependent on the time of the year and the location. You can add ice as per you need/coolness .

Lassi is once said to be a special lunch drink for the Maharajas, it is said to keep the body cool, helps is digestion and balances most of the doshas ( Vata, Pitta, Kapha). It is said to rehydrate and refresh the body instantly.

How to make traditional Lassi -
  • For Normal Lassi  Take part of Curd/Dahi, if you have set normal yogurt take some part of it whisk it add about 3/4 water and either use the traditional mixer, or modern day mixer container and mix it well, Add Sugar or salt or rose, cardamom etc as per your taste or need
  • Thick Sweet lassi is usually made with yogurt/dahi mixed with ample amount of sugar with milk( some part water) majorly and flavoured rose/mango essence with cardomoms, grated badams, pieced cashews are added and blended with a blender or a mixer. when served it will have a froth on top and one can add kishmish/grated badam or cashews or best lump of fresh cream on top ... YUM YUM . Sweet Lassi was used during ancient hindu rituals, or early aryans.
Traditionally Lassi is served in tall Steel Glasses :)

Types of Lassi-
  • Salt lassi- taken in very hot weather in afternoon
  • Sweet Lassi- variant of above lassi but with sugar
  • Thick Sweet Lassi
  • Mango lassi-  Milk and mango with sugar
  • Mint lassi usually chaas-  Salt lassi with mint/pudina excellent for digestion, add cummin/jeera and try and remove the fat from the yogurt
  • Makhan Lassi- Variant of Sweet Lassi but with loads of fresh makhan or white cream and thoroughly mixed.
  • Bhang/Cannabis Lassi- 
  • Rose/Almond/Coconut/Pineapple/Strawberry lassi- Mainly sweet lassi with more milkor part milk and part water
Recommendations -
  • Traditional Punjabi Lassi- Made in any Punjabi/Sikh Household- You can go to their place for lunch esp choley bhatoore or rajma chawal with lassi
  • Any Place in Punjab, India or Pakistan ... every village, every town will be offering this drink in summer season
  • Places around Golden temple, Amritsar, Punjab have excellent Thick sweet lassi apart from other variants of Lassi
  • Commercial street, in Bangalore serves thick creamy sweet lassi with fresh cream
  • Karol Bagh, Chandini Chowk, West delhi all have excellent yummy cheap lassis

  • Lebur Lassi which Bengali Tradition- east part of India.
  • Chaaz in Bihar or any bihari family will serve you one.

Sadde Choley Bhatoore !!!!

Last three weekends i.e: Saturday and Sundays  have been visiting the near by North Indian Eating Joint and eating the ever so yummy, delicious, supercilious, yummylicious CHOLEY Bhatoore or kulche. Bhatura is one of the awesome bread in Indian Continent. It is Loud, Theeka (spicy), Big, Happy like the Punjabis  :)

My First stint with Choley Kulche or Bhatura was when I was 6/7 years old and it costed merely 2-3 Rupees !! 

CK /CB was first introduced in Punjab. 


  • Choley ( chickepeas) are soaked overnight in some salt and boiled in the morning.
  • A thick gravy is made of onions and tomatoes, chilly, ginger, salt, garam masala and Choleys are added to it and cooked in pressure cooker. Once cooked it is served with raw cut onions, dhaniya and green chilly.
  • Kuclha again is a flat bread /Naan is made of maida flour. It is extremely popular in India and Pakistan esp. Punjab areas. ANyways round balls are made from the kneaded flour and flattened by Belana and each baked usually in clay oven ( substitute is tandoor) and baked until golden brown. It is then served with white makhan(butter) or normal butter..
  • Sometimes Kulcha can be stuffed with potatoes/onions/ Methi.
  • Bhatura is again made from Maida Flour ( but curd/yeast depends are added) , just like Kulcha -small round balls are made and flattened but instead they are deep fried unless light golden and seem chewable.
Choley Bhature/Kulche are served and eaten hot, served with fresh cut onions, green chilly smeared in Sarso ka Tel ( Oil), Achaar ( Pickle) and raita ( yogurt with grated onions, kaala namak).
Another way of eating is by taking two small kulchas and stuffing choley/channas  (like a burger) ...YUM YUM YUM.
These are mainly eaten are breakfast along with lassi ( either sweet or salt )... YUM TUM YUM

Recommendations :-

  • Local Street Vendors especially in North India any-state, wont cost more than 20 rupees
  • Old delhi and Nizam-ud-din areas in Delhi serve excellent Choley Bhature
  • Amritsari- Naan, Kulche, BHature are famous, any eating joint is recommended
  • Around Golden temple- in Amritsar there is small shop which serves amazing Choley Kulche eg: bharwan da dhaba
  • Local Shops in Karol Bagh in Delhi
  • Paranthe wali gali in Chandini Chowk, Delhi, Red Fort in Delhi, Sarojini Nagar ,Lajpat Nagar 
  • Once met a girl on the border of Indo-Pak during a brief chit chat got to know Lahore has famous spots for CHoley Kulche/Naan
  • West Delhi- Hari Nagar, Tilak Nagar has variations of Choley Kulche/Naan
  • Ghats of Ganga at Haridwar/ And Civil Lines at Roorkee 
  • On the way from Delhi to Punjab- the highways- 
  • Surprisingly Wolvehampton, UK and Dudley street also has nice Choley Bhatur
  • Parts of Jaipur, Jodhpur, Pali in Rajasthan

Enjoy the THEEKA- CHATKARa Choley Bhatoora ....

Heaven Above- Te amo

Tum ho tu gata hai dil
Tum ho tu hawa mein bhi mohabatein ka rang hai
Tum ho tu rahein bhi hain
Tum nahi tu rastein kahan
Tum ho tu yahan sab hi hain
Tum nahi tu kaun yahan
Tum ho tu hai har pal mehrban ye
Tum Mile tu milli ye zindagi




Yesterday for the first time I accidently heard the complete song from the movie "Rock On". It reminded or rather brought forth the reality that there are certain stages or times in one's lives when no matter how strong or independent one is as an indiviual we all yearn for a certain "Special Someone" .

The Special Someone with whom our entire world is spinning round and round, the path on which the two walk is the same, every moment whether good or bad or worse is lived together, whose presence is as beautiful as a wonderful dream, with whom after days/months/years the journey is mesmerising and fills the world around, whose presence fills the whole room & everything around, with whom you can share & celebrate your birthday, anniversarys,cat fight days, cribbing days, wonderful days & nights and entire bag of occassion

Actually with whom the World is Here .. Right Now !!
Actually with someone the World is Love... Right Now !!

Special Someone's mostly fall from Heaven & the walk of life gets easier than it never seemed--- is what I was told as a kid :)

STAND BACK - In the middle of the room

It's time to face up to the fact that the past is gone, and any effort to repeat it is a sure way to stay stuck in old blueprints that you would have already outgrown if you hadn't been so busy clinging to what you have already been through. Take a deep breath, put the box down, tie it up in a pretty ribbon if you must, and bid it a fond and reverent farewell. Life is passing you by, and you're in danger of becoming an old fossil before your time- (apparently which I am reminded of time and time again in some form or the other)

In all this ho hum of "past spaces" there is another almost abandoned space " Wait" In silence and waiting something inside you goes on growing--your authentic being. And one day it jumps and becomes a flame, and your whole personality is shattered; you are a new being. And this new being knows what ceremony is, this new being knows life's eternity ........MY ETERNAL BLISS....

WAIT FOR THE RIGHT MOMENT....STAND BACK ... SOMETIMES its alright to stand in the line :)

As Long as u love me--- says this afternoon

Its a beautiful monday morning , noon and afternoon. It feels I am a some vagabond in a white dress running around flowers and plucking peaches from the tree and apart from singing lalalalalalal, since morning who cant stop singing these lines

Palakon se hothon se tak jo rah nikalti
Guzrein na tu wahan se, se yeh galti hai
Rehte hain aab hum wahan !!!

Kadamon ko sambhalen nazron ka kya karein
Nazron ko sambhlein tu dil ka kya karein
Dil ko sambhale zubaan !!!

Aise chale jab hawa

Wonderful day, a small girl gave me a red rose, a dog was playing with my dupatta while i was walking on the road, I found the corner seat far away from my boss, the morning drizzle
I know it will be 5 pm soon & all this will go in the drain when the wretched TCONs start .. Phew !!!

FOR NOW THIS MORNING + AFTERNOON says--- I dont care who u are , where u are from, what u did as long as u love me !!
FOR NOW I SAY- ITs a beautful day even when I know u (day) are on the run !1

WOT-Waste of Time

Its 4:30 am in the morning here and absolutely awake thinking of nothingness and emptiness within and outside.

A thought which passes my mind- Life has way of letting you know that the solutions to your situation are going to be arrived at by following your hunches and listening to your body. Trusting one's instincts and carry happiness with you instead of searching for it before setting out on the journey called life.

Life has a way of teaching lessons by creating situations which we never want to be in & hear words like " you are over", " I dont forsee any future", "DOnt you get it - it doesnt exist", " stop being a social obligation" ," you are a torture"

Ultimate admonition to be yourself, to go for it- says someone !

Hawt Hawt- "Cool- fee"

Since the days are hot very hot in Bangalore as opposed to the drenching evenings ( especially the moment when one is about to step out of the office)----- I am reminded of my ever favourite --- Rabdri Kulfi/Faluda Kulfi/Pista Kulfi/Matka Kulfi..



Kulfi is again Lazeez invented/introduced first in Uttar Pradesh in India. It is made from milk, i.e: slow cooking of milk, carmelization and then more cooking till it becomes half it actual amount, filled with nuts, pista, cardamons, saffron and poured in to molds of kulfis and literally deep frosted. ( Can be easily made at home)

 Faluda Kulfi - Kulfi ( without the stick) with sweet noodles/vermicilli
with colored sweetner sprayed on, pista and nuts are sprinkled and served in a
plate. The Noodles can be like smaller glass noodles too.
 Rabri Kulfi- Kulfi is poured in a glass, filled with noodles/vermicilli and other
ingredients, malai is often poured along with sweetners, nuts, pista etc. It is
available in different flavours.
 Matka Kulfi- As the name suggested is served in a matka, or earthern bowl, this
is usually minus the noodles/vermicilli but with loads of saffron and pistas.
Traditionally the vendor used to get the Kulfi in the matka and server it, or in
earlier days (my grandmom;'s days) since there were no refregirators for cooling
purpose was stored in matkas.
 Pista Kulfi- Is the Kulfi with stick, available in different flavours of rose,
pista, saffron, mango filled with nuts/minced cashwes and badams !


Special recommendations-
 Ghats of Ganga /Ganges near Haridwar try the rabri faluda, its served in huge
glass, value for money, very heavy, u can skip a meal if one has it.
 Delhi Kulfis- All types available in every knook and corner especially in the
summer season, North delhi, CP, Vikaspuri, Lajpat Nagar
 Kolkata- Rally's, not sure if its still there
 Bangalore- COmmerical Street, though not like the one made in North but still
 Old Amritsar has different varieties of Kulfis, tastes very different from the
one's in Delhi, really
 Places near the Golden temple, Amritsar serve great big sized kulfis another hot
spot.
Lastly any any vendor in North India, UP, Rajasthan- the taste will be awesome. Worst case try the Haldirams !! Phew !

Ku-l-fi---Oh La La !!!!

Hate to Admit--- Kach Kach Kachori !!!

Since its been pouring cats and dogs every evening in Bangalore, chatt patti kachori is another way out to seek eternal bliss i.e: for the gasping tongue and hungry tummy.

Kachori / Raj Kachori /Khasta Kachori/Chat Kachori as it referred in North/North Western India, hate to admit not sure what it is called in Punjabi though, never saw them in there, but folks tell me they have eaten kachoris there "n" number of times!!




Kachori is made of urad dal/lentils ( yellow colored) which is soaked all night, mashed- turned flour, kneaded with besan and small/big round balls are made, each stuffed with potatoes (if u want), green chillies paste, garam masala, salt, red chillies, salt, amchur ( all mixed and prepared) and deep fried in desi/pure ghee. i.e: ghee made from buffalo's milk only !!!

Kachoris range from small size to super man size, it is usually served hot, sometimes the vendor cracks it from the centre and stuffs it with jeera and others with chutney which is a bit sweet or curd with gratings . Onion/Jeera/Potato/Garam Masala/Keema etc. Kachori are the variants.

Tips- Make sure you hold it (gawar) bite it and let the krisp krisp sound be heard , for this one dont gulp but munch it --krisp. Advice- Dont drink water immediately u will lose the taste ( sweet and salty)

Recommendations :-
 For this you can visit Haldirams (expensive) but you can get your big size
bit there in A/C
 Please visit chandini chowk, areas closer to old delhi railway station and
nai sarak (book lane) - just be beware of the hovering hookers & gaysthere !!
 Make sure the raj kachori is served hot
 Try local made tamarind chutney- irrespective of place
 If you ever visit Roorkee,Uttaranchal (on the way to Haridwar) please visit
the shop in front of the Masjid in the Bazar--- awesome Kachori even if it
is cold
 Visiting Pali, interiors of rajasthan ,on the way to Binani Cement Plant
visit a local vendor -- freshly made Kachori (hope he is still there- 5
years back)
 Border of Gujarat and Rajasthan-- there are numerous places which serve
small sized kachoris dipped literlly swimming in the chutneys
 Every happen to visit Kanpur, Allahabad-- your super King sized kachori is
just awaiting

Last but not the least try some Raj Kachori in areas Lajpat Nagar, Sarojini Nagar, CP in Delhi. The local guy might charge Rs.20-30 for one !!!

Happy Krisp Krisp !!

My Love- Golo !!


Gol Guppas is what I have been munching on last weekend -every evening i.e: friday-sunday. This was especially since it was raining every evening , the weather was awesome and koel was singing--coo coo coo.....Awesomely romantic with neglibile presence of any man !!! Ironic...

Gol Guppas are an evening snack of the North Indian also referred to as-- Pani Puri Puchka, Chat Pakori etc. They are round or spherically either made of maida or wheat and consumed in one shot i.e: entire sphere is nicely placed in the wide opened mouth (publicly) and gulped/eaten in one shot, the point is not to bite it but gulp.

Gol Guppas were introduced on the ghats of Benaras, UP in the 16th/17th century. It is usually served by breaking the round thing from the centre and adding spicy mashed potatoes, green chilli, red chilli, dhaniya (donno the english word) dipped in the pani / spicy water and served.
Actually the best part about gol guppas is the Spicy Spicy Pani/Water-- made by adding jal jeera, salt, rock salt, nimbu/lemon.

Special recommendations :-
 Please visit if local gol guppa vendor with his traingular shaped stand with
heaps of gol guppas on top
 Dont visit Haldirams in delhi or any inside eating joint they are too
expensive and sweet, Gawd save you if u happen to eat gol guppas in
commercial street in Bangalore ( Both not recommended).
 Try out both sweet and salt gol guppas (seperately)
 Ask for a "Dhonna" or local dry sal leaves cup to drink the Khatta Pani
 Ask for "Shont" if u want it a bit sweet
 In the end dont leave with taking your due share of "Dry Papdi" which is
filled with potatoes, chilli and lemon..Yum Yum...


Last but not the least --- dont spend more than Rs. 10 on one gol guppa plate!!!!

Happy Gulping !!!

Disco Dancing Heart Blabbering

Some days are good, some days are bad.. bot SOME PHASES in life are extremely horrible & bad which seem to suck you like a quick sand --ranging from months to years... worst are the days when you have to blog about self for no reason and feel miserable about yourself as if its your personal diary here

Yes I am here to talk again about my recently acquired favourite topic called marriage & the search for someone ..please note not getting hooked on !!

After my series of encounters/discussions with friends recently when i visited delhi who are endlessly pouring gyan on what kind of a guy is suitable for me to consoling me every now and then for no apparent reason and as to what the hell i keep doing.

It makes me sad and happy at the same time cos probably recently i felt that my so called friends might be distant but in some ways they do care about me but ironically they never understood me or wanted to understand me or worst try to know anything about my past or emotional states. Maybe thats the way its with most people.

One important relevations by my friends--- Let go ... Let go ( which i neways always knew) and Its difficult to see your life passing you by and you cant do a thing about it ( which ive been doing most part of my life)


With a heavy disco dancing heart i write this down---

Jane na kahan woh hai duniya
Jane na woh hai bhi ya nahi
Jahan meri zindagi mujhse itni khafa nahi
main kho gayi kiski bahon mein
manzilon se rahein dhonti chali
khud kho gayi manzil kahin rahon mein

Sweet Nothings !!!

Apart from the fact that my days are filled with staring blankly at the wall or my laptop,my mind is continously filled up & I am realised by family/friends on " how to choose a right marriage partner" to " how immature i have been to all this while" to " How I should get married now " to "How agonising my life" is to "How love alone is not important" to "How scarred i might be i.e: beyond comprehension" to "How it is great to be taken care of" !!!

Few questions I am asked to ponder while feeling with my heart and utilising my brain --aka Formula One

1) Accept yourself and the other person i.e: after interacting with them for a few days. Accept the reality of each other
2) Liking is very important. You need to like the other person as a human being ( I thot i was a human being too)
3) COmpatibility of values & spirituality ( not religion)- This part i need to figure out.
4) Compatibility in expression & discussion of feelings- I understand it is not shouting & howling when u have a fight
5) Ability to look positively at situations - together . I dont understand this
6) Lover is not enough-- you need stability & a satisfying life.
7) Keep Jerks/Jolts out of your - the way you prefer to call them.i.e: Jerks are derivatives of derivatives !!!

I was bogged down after jotting these down and even more interesting despite the empty mind and days my heart is still overflowing...
Maybe it is truly a case of ---
too much love and yet not well enough
too much to give but not well receieved

Formula Championship !!!!

Friend 1- Why do you like this person??
Friend 2- I like him because I feel I like him.I am an emotional person.
Friend 1- Are u sure its real emotions and not the chemicals in you !!!
Friend 2- I usually know when I meet a person whether i like him !!
friend 1- Interesting, so what are the parameters on which u like someone when you want to get in a serious relationship
Friend 2- eheemm !! I just know it, out of love,emotions
Friend 1- #$%%%*%)$)&^%$@

Friend 1- You need to have strategy/formulas of your own after all you have been dating from the last 10 years of your life.
Friend 2- Had I known the correct formula I wont be banging my head on the wall.Phew !!!!

I think most of us have been through similar situations at some point in time. It is very interesting that of all the different people I have met -who had & still have a successful relationship have told me different forumalas.

Formula One- Your so called emotions could be chemicals, adreanlines acting. Use your head too, eg: whether you have smilarities or not, cos eventually you dont want to be stuck with someone with whom u are poles apart.

Formula Two- It always your instinct, gut, emotions and how you feel at point in time about a person is the answer

Formula 3- Have options as many as possible and then see how u feel about them, be choosy. Look at the materialistic side of things too.

Formula 4-Dont get desperate, stay, analyse, feel with a cool head & keep your past aside and let things happen by themselves.

Formula 5- Leave it to God. Dont get attached.

After listening to all the 'n' number of formulas recently my head is spining round and round and I am going back and forth in my head --Heart and emotions are anyways loitering around & wasting time.

Eventually I have concluded and accepted--I have zero formulas/strategies to cling- no head no heart combination.
But for now i surely need to accept and love myself and let go :).. let go.....let go....to glory !!!!!!!

Happy Kurta Day

Some moments in life just uplift you spirit or mood atleast for a moment no matter how insignificant they might be or might sound to someone else.

I wasnt keeping well for the past one month and felt dull, upset , sick .Today i went for lunch with my colleague and from there we went to fabindia for a quick look out.
It was the same dull boring me walking around as if half dead.
In Fab India i was searching for a nice kurta.I searched
and searched,some items were too expensive, some too monotonous ,
some too boring ( the usual girls stuff) seemed as if nothing fits
in or rather I dont fit in.
In this entire process of searching for Kurta (with already low self
esteem & dullness within me) I suddenly got too upset inside,
feeling absolutely useless, my eyes for a fraction of second just
filled with tears and even more sad and just started linking it with
my life and recent happenings as if hell again bent lose.

" But as they say life is a box of chocolates you never know what you are gonna get."

Suddenly my colleague found a kurta, i tried it on. I dont know what happened when i saw myself in mirror wearing it, it elevated my mood and I suddenly felt inside as if i have finally found something.
I was really jumping like a child , actually felt I am happy again. It might not change the happenings around but it really made feel more strong, peaceful & happy inside.

Strangely sometimes we say to ourselves---" Too many walls have been build in between us too many dreams have been shattered around us but deep in my heart i know that the strength is within" ;)
