Six detoxing food to keep you healthy!


As i mentioned in my earlier blogs that the idea to start the blog was very simple i.e. i wanted to keep a record of all my favourite food recipes in one place & definitely to share with my audience.

Today , I would be sharing the 6 natural & household foods that are known to detox our body . Detoxification in our body is nothing but a process of eliminating all the toxins accumulated over a period of time. 




Human body is built to detox  naturally through  its various known ways . However the below foods  are known  as  natural detoxifier.

To help you make a good start, I made a list of cleansing foods and herbs that will leave you feeling lighter and fresher within a week of including them in your diet.



1) Turmeric (Haldi)-


While recent studies have hailed its anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects on the body, 'Ayurveda' has valued this spice for centuries for its staggering medicinal properties.





What makes it relevant for those wishing to detox is its power to help the liver get rid of harmful compounds. 

Since the primary purpose of a detoxification exercise is to support the organs of elimination like liver, turmeric comes to the rescue and its antioxidants play a critical role in combating the cell damage that can stack up with age. 

So, a tablespoon of turmeric a day, is enough to considerably set your insides right. 

Take it with a cup of milk (half  table spoon) & it can heal any kind of internal wear & tear.

2) Apples


An apple a day keeps the doctor away-Packed with fibre, and especially pectin which helps in cleansing the intestinal tract. 




Apples can clear it of accumulated toxins and undigested food particles. 

This assumes more significance considering how essential it is to include a variety of fibres in the diet to maximise detoxification.
3) Garlic



Easily available in every house hold. Known for its medicinal properties for a long time.

 Garlic’s high sulphur content not only tones the skin and makes your hair more lustrous, it also fires up the detoxification process. 




The liver must neutralise toxins with sulphur until it is excreted in a process called sulfation. 

To smoothen this process, include more sulphur rich foods like garlic in your diet. 

Three cloves per meal should do you good. It is one of the natural remedy for vata rog-


4) Lemons

  Always add some fresh lemon juice to the (hot) water  you drink or the food you eat. 

Lemon gets a lot of credit for warding off the cold, but its ability to aid healthy digestion and elimination is often overlooked.




It helps in  digestion  as it encourages bile flow. Even its peels are rich in antioxidants that support detoxification. 

A cup of lemon tea with a pinch of Ginger & black pepper & honey will give your immune system a big boost while removing the toxins from your body.

5) Coriander


 While the seed of coriander or cilantro plant can help digestion and maintain normal cholesterol levels. 



The leaves are said to detoxify heavy metals like lead and mercury that can accumulate in the body over time. 

 So what are you waiting for? Throw a handful of coriander into salads, or as garnish on cooked vegetables, dals and curries. 

A coriander chutney is not unknown to us. A must have in your meals.   


6) Broccoli


Having known as the healthiest foods, these crucifers play their part in internal cleansing & detoxification. 

It helps in digestion, broccoli releases a nutrient known to possess properties that help detoxify the ‘bad’ oestrogens in the body. 




One small cup of broccoli a day can fight them off, keeping you safe from weight gain, PMS and even cancer.

So include the above in your regular diet & you will see that you body is getting healthier  day by day. 

They do not have any side effects & if taken regularly will boost immunity too.

 That’s it for this blog, stay tuned for more J

Special Samosa made at home!

Samosa is so so common in India (you literally get samosa and chai at every other street corner), we always considered it to be a quintessential Indian delicacy. But only later we read that it has its origin in Middle East and it was introduced to India during the Delhi Sultanate rule. It was later adapted as a  vegetarian snack with spicy potato filling in India (which is what is most popular in northern India). Anyway whatever the origin was, we can confidently say that samosa, especially Aloo Samosa is the most popular snack back home. It’s there in every party, office meeting, chai meet-ups, you name it and samosa will be there! Making samosa is a multi-step process so we are not going to say it’s super quick and easy.

This is one of those treats that you should make for special occasions or over a weekend when you want to have some fun in the kitchen. the var...

SPECIAL EGG ROLL MADE AT HOME! ‍The egg roll is certainly a popular street food. But what makes a good roll? It should be served hot. So the assembly process, once the paratha has been fried, needs to be quick and efficient.  It should not be too chewy, that is to say, you should not have to tug at it with your teeth. Most importantly, the paratha should be fully cooked and crisp. The filling should be evenly distributed so you get a little of everything with each bite. Finally, the mark of an excellently wrapped roll is that you can eat it using just one hand. Simply bite into your roll and when you reach the paper, gently grip the roll with your teeth to slide it out as you go along. No overflowing filling, no leaking sauces. Everything is contained within a neat package that you can enjoy on the go. METHOD TO COOK -  For the outer paratha/wrap, add the flour, salt, sugar, and dalda to a mixing bowl. Combine the ingredients until the fat is well dispersed in the ...
