Hi Friends,

“Lauki ki Kheer/Bottleguard Pudding” is the speciality of my “Hometown State – Chhattisgarh”.Kids usually want to have a variety of food and eating Lauki Sabji sometimes makes them bored.My sisters usually make “Lauki ki Kheer” for their kids as it’s a very Healthy and Delicious Recipe.This can also be served in Vrat during Navratras or any other fastings.

About Chef

Heena Bharat

Good food creates good memories and can win many hearts. Though basic cooking started in my Mumbai days, but being in Germany for few years, I started missing all Indian food especially street food. This has made me trying new and new dishes at home and even during the lockdown period in india, it has proved to be the need of the hour!!
