Spinach Rice Recipe

Mango Kesari Recipe

Though I am extremely late in sharing this mango recipe, I thought of posting it before the mango vanishes completely from the market. When I was in Chennai, I loved to try the breakfast combo served in Sangeetha restaurant mainly for the unique fruit flavoured kesari (Chikko, grapes, mixed fruits, etc.) and I always wanted to replicate it at home.
