Anything from freezer makes everyone happy when the weather is super hot outside, as i told earlier we are running behind chilled fresh juices, icecreams coz of the super hot weather and am trying to avoid to buy from stores, nothing can beat the homemades na. Today is the 1st day of the month and obviously ill posting my first recipe of the month for the famous South vs North Challenge an event owned by Divya Pramil. After making an elaborated Rajasthani Thali challenged by Manjula, i was quite excited also anxious to know about this months challenge for the Southern team, coz anything can happen in this SN Challenge. Thank god, this months challenge was the famous Kesar pista kulfi, a very apt chilled dessert for us to enjoy while the North team have to prepare the most famous dal kheer aka pasiparuppu payasam challenged by Divya Pramil.

Once i went through the Kesar Pista Kulfi recipe challenged by Shruti of Shruthi Rasoi, i started immediately making this incredible nutty kulfi for our afternoons dessert. Thanks Shruti,am just relishing the kulfi dear and loving it, its was so creamy,highly nutty with a superb saffron flavour. The motto of this event is to exchange an Indian recipe between two teams. One team is Southern team (bloggers  born and brought in South India) and the another one team is Northern team (food bloggers born and brought in North India). Every first of a month, a blogger from each team will challenge a recipe from their origin and the opposite team have to cook the recipe challenged by the other team. If you want to be a part of this challenge, dont forget to join us, just send a mail to the Divya and get ready to face the challenge every month.Sending to Srivallis Summer Special Mela.
