Today's recipe Kesari bath is my 100th post. Thank you so much to all friends and family for supporting, encouraging and suggesting me to continue my passion😍🙏🎊. Learned many things in this short time. Planned to post something new and innovative recipe for 100th post, but ended with kesari bath. As it is my dad's favourite sweet which he used to prepare very deliciously for us 😍. Rava kesari is simple and basic sweet item which is regularly prepared in all houses for festivals and parties. And kesari bath is such a famous dessert in South India, prepared with different combinations like Pineapple kesari bath, is served in hotel as sweet in meals.
It is very easy to prepare with less ingredients and in jiffy. We can add Saffron, orange/ yellow food colors or turmeric powder to get color. I d't like adding color, so skipped it today. Though preparation of rava kesari differ from home to home, today I am posting the way which I prepare regularly. You can also do variations accordingly 🤗
