Strawberries, fresh or frozen - 1/4 cup, chopped
Banana - 1/2 of a medium banana, chopped
Milk - 1/2 cup
Condensed milk - 2tbsp
Ground Cardamom - a pinch

Method:
  • Blend all the ingredients until smooth and serve immediately.
Signature

Hi Pavani,

My most favorite kitchen gadget which I keep raving about on many of my blog recipes is my VITAMIX - don't know what I'd do without it - Since I have the first model of it, I would love to get an updated version :)

I've been into my cast iron pan lately, not really a "gadget" though. I've been eyeing the kitchenaid ice cream maker attachment.

My favorite kitchen gadget is my toaster oven. It is used for toast in the morning for cooking and for baking. This has cut down on our gas bill quite a bit.
