Let's admit it, we scroll through several recipes online, but most of them require ingredients that are maybe too difficult to find or just dig a hole in our pocket. In today's time of conscious living, we often look for fruits and vegetables that aren't just tasty but also beneficial for our health. Recently, in India, the trend of avocados has shaken the internet, but honestly, not everyone has access to it. But this does not mean our desi vegetables have fewer nutrients and flavour. Do you find yourself stuck in a similar situation? Then fret not! Nutritionist Deepsikha Jain (@fries.to.fit) shared a video on her Instagram page addressing these concerns and shared some desi food swaps for Western ingredients.

If you are a fan of sweets then you won't disagree that Bengali sweets stand apart from all the Indian dessert options. Unlike North-Indian options, Bengali sweets are mostly made of paneer (cheena), which makes them super indulgent. When I think of Bengali sweets, the first thing that comes to my mind is Sandesh. It is sweet, melt-in-mouth, and so delightful that you can't stop yourself after one piece. Just like any other Bengali sweet, Sandesh is also made from paneer. But since it serves as a blank canvas, you can easily tweak them as per your choice. If you like desi sweets with a twist, then we have the perfect dessert recipe for you which involves Sandesh… with fruits!
