Mumbai - A perfect Drive, Design and Connectivity

My first job was in Mumbai and now I have come Delhi for my third job. If we talk about drive, design and connect both have their own positives and negatives. I still like Mumbai more when it comes to drive, design and connect. However, the traffic density in Mumbai is more than Delhi but still Mumbai is the best. I still remember driving late night near marine drive and enjoying my drive with my colleagues. Also, driving near juhu beach was so much fun that I cannot forget. I and my friends loved driving in Mumbai.

Design: Design of Mumbai is simple and straight. It is straight in design. If you want to go to a place you have to travel straight and you have very less option in terms of route. The design is good and you keep on driving straight with some nice music turned on to listen to. The highways are designed very efficiently. The city is very well designed according to me. 

Connectivity: Mumbai is very well connected and it’s easy to find and travel to a place. The flyovers connect various places of Mumbai very well and you will never face any difficulty in reaching a destination. Even, if you miss a cut or take a wrong turn you can easily make a U-turn and get back to the correct turn or take the correct road. The highways connect each and every place and you can travel to place easily through the highways. The roads and highways are also very well connected to eachother.

Drive: Talking about the drive of Mumbai it is filled with scenic beauty while you are on drive. Driving at marine drive in the night and seeing the lights is one scene that nobody can miss and I bet you cannot find a better place to see especially in the night while you are driving. Just put on some nice music and you will love the drive. Driving near the beaches of Mumbai is also one thing that nobody would ever like to miss. I myself loved, each and every drive which I did near the beaches.
I think that if there is a place with a good design and connectivity with a great scenic beauty to see while you are driving is Mumbai. However, in peak hours you may find some traffic in Mumbai but that is just because of the traffic density in Mumbai. But, once you start your drive during the night when the traffic density is less you would fall in love with driving in Mumbai. I still miss driving in Mumbai late in the night and watching the lights at marine drive.

Kaju Katli - Made With SugarFree Natura

Kaju Katli is my favourite dessert which I can have daily after dinner. My father and mother both are diabetic so I cannot keep it at home. But, it will be very good to prepare it at home with the all new Sugarfree Natura.

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup cashews/kaju
  • ½ cup SugarFree Natura or as required
  • 5 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp ghee  (optional)
Note: 1 cup = 250 ml approx.

Directions:

  1. Powder the cashew in a coffee grinder or a dry grinder.
  2. The cashews should be in powdered form and should not be pasty or oily.
  3. On a low flame heat SugarFree Natura and water in a thick bottomed or non-stick pan or kadai.
  4. At the same time, grease a plate or a tray and keep aside or keep butterpapers ready. Butter paper helps in giving a neat smooth finish.
  5. When all the SugarFree Natura is dissolved in the water, add the cashew powder. There is no consistency in the SugarFree Natura syrup required like one string or two string. Just let the SugarFree Natura dissolve in the water and then proceed with the next step.
  6. Stir and keep on stirring the cashew mixture on a low flame.
  7. When the cashew mixture starts thickening cook the cashew mixture for around 10 minutes till the whole mixture starts to come together.
  8. Remove the whole lump of the mixture from the pan and place it on work surface or plate.
  9. Add ghee or oil to the cashew mixture and mix.
  10. When it cools enough to handle, then knead the cashew mixture. Flatten the dough and place it on a butter paper or on a greased plate/thali or tray. Gently, roll it with a rolling pin. Roll to a thickness of 3-5 mm.
  11. Remove the butter paper and let the rolled cashew dough cool.
  12. When completely cooled, using a sharp knife cut the cashew dough giving diamond shapes or whatever you like.
  13. Gently remove the kaju katli with a butter knife.
