Ah, the monsoon season in India! There’s something magical about those first raindrops hitting the earth, the sweet smell of wet soil, and the cool breeze that follows. It takes us back to my childhood, sitting by the window with a steaming cup of chai and a plate of crispy pakoras, watching the rain. Monsoon in India isn’t just a season; it’s an emotion. And what better way to celebrate this beautiful weather than with some delicious, homemade snacks made with Lal Gulab products? How it always takes us back to our homes, where our Moms/Dadis/Nanis/Papas or anyone would head to the kitchen and create that nostalgic monsoon magic!
No monsoon experience is complete without the nationwide fav! chai-pakoda combo. There’s nothing quite like sipping hot tea while munching on crispy pakodas as the rain pours outside. The pakodas, made with Lal Gulab Besan, are perfectly light and crispy, making them the ideal snack to enjoy with a hot beverage. Whether you’re chatting with family, reading a book, or just watching the rain, this combo sets the perfect mood.
In Maharashtra (and majorly across the nation), Poha is a popular breakfast option, especially during the rainy season. Lal Gulab Poha, with its perfect texture, makes a light yet satisfying meal. Enjoy it with a squeeze of lemon and a sprinkle of fresh coriander for a refreshing start to your day. P.S. If you want to add a little extra something to it – try adding some bhujiya!
Dhokla, a beloved snack from Gujarat, is another delightful treat during the monsoon. The soft, fluffy texture of dhokla made with Lal Gulab Besan pairs beautifully with a tangy green chutney. It’s perfect for an evening snack or even a light lunch. The moist, spongy bites of dhokla are not only delicious but also healthy, making it a guilt-free indulgence.
Samosas are a favorite across India – we know you can’t say no to a Samosa! and there’s something incredibly satisfying about biting into the crispy, flaky one made with Lal Gulab Maida – you gotta try if you haven’t already. The spicy filling warms you up from the inside, making it the perfect companion for a rainy day. Pair it with khatti-mitthi chutney or mint chutney for an extra burst of flavor.
A lot of you may agree to it – anything that is warm, comforting and reminds you of home is always a plate of khichdi with aam ka achaar on the side! Here’s a little twist to your regular khichdi – Try Dalia Khichdi with aam ka achaar instead – You must give it a shot if you haven’t! Khichdi made with Lal Gulab Dalia, can the ultimate comfort food during the monsoon. It’s warm, wholesome, and nourishing, making it perfect for a cozy lunch or dinner.
Monsoon is a time to indulge in these yummy snacks, creating memories with family and friends and being at ease. With Lal Gulab products, you can be sure of the best quality and taste in every bite.
