My theme for the Marathon is Cooking without fire for kids. On the first day of Marathon I have made fruit chat for kids which is very easy to make and healthy too. Here goes the recipe.........


We need:


Pineapple pieces 1 cup
Apple pieces 1 cup
Grapes 1 cup
Crushed walnuts 1/4 cup
Tooty fruity 1/4 cup
Chat Masala 3/4 sp



Method:


Cut all the fruits into medium sixe or bite size pieces.
In a mixing bowl add all the fruits and chat masala.
Mix well and garnish with crushed walnuts and tooty fruity.
Looks colorfull and healthy too.
U can use any fruit of your choice.
Chat masala gives some special taste to this chat.

Aloo Kurma / Potato Gravy : No Onion Garlic Version

For the 4th and final week of Blogging Marathon # 46, am here with  No onion and Garlic recipes. Being a south Indian, I can't imagine cooking without onion and garlic. We use onions in almost all the dishes. We cook food without onion and garlic only during festivals as most of the Indians do.

Not only during festivals but few communities in India do not eat onion and garlic at all. They feel that various foods and drink can influence the state of one's mind. Onions, garlic etc, are classified as foods that change one’s mind such that it becomes angry and one cannot control it.

Eating onions for example will lead to bad breath. Eating garlic even in small amounts can lead to days of an unsavoury odour coming from the skin.

So, for day 1, am here with some delicious gravy curry, Aloo Kurma. Yes, y…
