OVERNIGHT CHIA SEEDS & RICE PUDDING (VEGAN /GLUTEN FREE) 

INGREDIENTS 

1.5 cups unsweetened cashew milk
1.5 cups cooked basmati
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
0.5 teaspoon ground cardamom
0.5 cup of coconut sugar, or raw brown sugar
0.5 cup whole chia seeds
Fresh raspberries, mango & toasted coconut for garnish 

INSTRUCTIONS:

Bring the cashew milk, cooked rice, and sugar to a boil over medium heat in a medium-sized pot. Remove from heat and allow to cool (uncovered for about 10 minutes). 

Add the remaining ingredients, and transfer to a large container with a lid. Allow to cool at room temperature (stirring 2-3 times) to break up the chia seeds and prevent clumping. Once cool, cover and refrigerate overnight. To serve, stir the chilled pudding and top with fresh berries, diced mangos and toasted coconut.

Lentil & Charred Broccoli Chat

“This is an interpretation of the way I look at today’s eating habits and trends. Chaat masala is readily available in every grocery in India. When I first combined chaat with balsamic vinegar and honey, the chaat went to another level. You can substitute any kind of beans and lentils and cauliflower can  replace the broccoli." – Ratnani
