Kokum Coconut Kadhi

Kokum Coconut Kadhi

To make Kokum Coconut Kadhi, we have to know what is Kokum. Kokum is a fruit used as a souring agent in many parts of India and it is mellow in taste compared to tamarind. For me, how it can be a kadhi without besan? So, this Kokum Coconut Kadhi is my twist, by adding a little roasted besan (gram flour). This is both delicious and very refreshing. You can serve this as a soup or with rice. My son who is a very picky eater thoroughly enjoyed it! This is a quick and easy recipe which you must give it a try. This Kadhi is also vegan and gluten free.

This recipe will serve 2 to 3.

Corn and spinach sandwich

Corn and spinach sandwich, Spinach corn sandwich- No onion no garlic sandwich recipe with full video and step-by-step pictures.

Sandwich comes super handy when we run out of idli dosa batter. My family loves sandwiches, and I have posted many recipes in Jeyashris kitchen. This one is a no onion no garlic sandwich recipe made using the winning combo of spinach and corn, also I have added capsicum to enhance the taste.

You can make this easy sandwich recipe, with the ingredients available at home. As we are not using onion or garlic, chopping reduces significantly. The filling is like a thicker version of the white sauce we make for pasta. If you want to add garlic you can add while sauting the corn and making the sauce too.

Corn and spinach sandwich can be served for breakfast, packed for kid’s lunch box, or served as an evening snack. Even you can make this for a quick weeknight dinner along with a soup.
