Spring Onion/Piyaj Koli recipe (With posto/Poppy Seeds)

Hello Everyone!

This is another recipe from my Bengali Cuisine. So the authentic name of the dish is "Piyaj koli Posto" and for the sake of convenience of my non-bong friends, it's Spring Onion with Poppy Seeds Paste.


No no, you might find the name little unusual and therefore might have thought that it is a difficult recipe, but it's absolutely not so!

It is just a two-ingredient recipe! Yes, you read it right, only 'TWO' ingredient recipe.

So what do you actually need?

1.Spring onions/Piyaj Koli (I here have used one bundle of spring onion which is approximately 250gm)
2.Posto/Poppy seeds Paste (I have taken here five full tablespoons of posto/poppy seeds and have made a paste out of it)

How to Make it?

 Take 2 tablespoons of mustard oil in the kadai and heat it up (the authentic taste comes with the use of mustard oil, but you if are intolerant to mustard oil, you can use any oil of your choice). Put some salt, turmeric and chili powder (according to your taste) and then put the nicely chopped spring onion and close the lid of the kadai. Cook for good 10 minutes in low flame (stir once or twice in between). After the piyaj koli/spring onion is cooked well, put the poppy seeds/posto paste and give a good stir. Add half a cup water and let it cook for another 10 minutes.

Yes, THATS ALL!! It is ready to be served.

So simple na?

:)

Cook it and do let me know how did you like the recipe :)

Take Care!

Khadi herbal Hair conditioner review

So here I am today to review two varieties of KHADI Herbal Hair Conditioner, one is Khadi Shikakai and Honey Hair conditioner and the other is Khadi Green Tea and Aloevera Hair conditioner. The first thing I want to share is I am absolutely in love with these hair conditioners. I am the one who has dry and rough hair, and for me, I felt these conditioners are just perfect! So why I'm in love with these? I have tried like so many conditioners on my hair, some of it turned out to leave my hair too sticky, some didn't do its job at all and left my hair brittle and rough, and to be very honest, I was tired to figure out which one will suit me the best. Then suddenly I came across these Khadi conditioners. The first time I used them only I felt the difference, it nourished my hair, made it soft and smooth, like the way a conditioner should exactly be. Moreover, it is not at all costly. I believe for all the variety of conditioner that Khadi has, its priced at or...

And today I'm gonna talk about the product which has been with me for the longest time ever☺ Yah, as you all must have understood by the caption, today I will be sharing my review about Jovees Honey and Apple Conditioning Shampoo. I have been using this shampoo for the longest time ever! For the last FOUR years, I'm using it. Not that I'm saying this is the best shampoo ever in the market and blah blah, but it surely suits my hair the best out of all the shampoos that I had used before coming across this one. So the shampoo actually looks like this: The shampoo had a different packaging when I just started using it and is now in this form. So you can understand I have seen all phases of this shampoo.

It is transparent and has a very mild and nice f...
