The Awesome Juice

I am so falling in love with left overs. They always seem to work like a charm for me.

My husband  was coming home early the other day, as we had a train to catch. So he calls me from the office and specially orders for juice made of strawberries and every other thing he could think of. I said "we ain't got any strawberries at home",to which he replies "I'm just trying to tease my colleagues".

So,I thought, let me give him something really nice. But I really couldn't think of anything because I had emptied my fridge. All that there was, were 2 oranges, 2 pomegranates, and half a bottle of maaza. Guess what I did........


The Magic Makers

Maaza             250 ml
Oranges          2
Curd                2 tbsp
Sugar              2 tsp

The Prestige

Extract the juice of 2 oranges and blend properly with curd and sugar. Now add maaza and blend well. What you get is called "The Awesome juice".

It was so so so good that I named it that way. Don't disclose the ingredients and let your guests keep guessing as they enjoy the bliss. Cheers!!!!

Strawberry Punch

So,The other day I and my husband went out to get some fruits, and my "Chatori Husband" was all eyes on everything he could grab for his morning juice. We picked up fruits for the whole week, but I had a major problem He bought me only one box of strawberries. Though I told him it wouldn't be enough juice for 4, he said "strawberry juice at my office costs 50 bucks, and a box worth 50 should be enough". I ,sometimes don't understand why he acts like some big shot chef who knows it all. Anyways we came back and I had another morning ahead of me with strawberries enough for two serving of juice. Here comes my Mom to my rescue, I remembered her telling me,last week, of an apple smoothie recipe made with hung curd, plus the pineapple in my fruit bowl kept reminding me of the classic "Ganga Jamuna Saraswti". So I decided to experiment a bit and luckily my kitchen had a lot of stuff in small portions, including 2 bananas and a 3 day old tetrapack of cranberry juice. So I guess my recipe is clear now.Anyway, here it is.

The Magic Makers

Strawberries                  About 12

Bananas                         2(small) OR 1 (large)

Cranberry Juice            About 150ml

Hung Curd                     2 dollops

Sugar Free                     12 sachets=24 teaspoons( yes, it really took that much)

The Prestige:

Well, slice the strawberries and bananas and beat them together in the juicer. Add the hung curd,blend properly and the add cranberry juice and the sugar. Because strawberries are sour and hung curd is very sour, you do need to add a lot for the sweetener. And I must tell you, it was yumm. And My "MasterChef" Husband did ask : "Super tha, kaise banaya", Huh! As if he knows how everything else is cooked in this house
