Boost Business Luck on Jyestha Purnima with These Simple Tips
Jyestha Purnima is on June 11 this year.
According to Celebrity Astrologer Parduman Suri, those whose businesses are not yielding profits should worship the Peepal tree on this day. The Peepal tree is believed to be the abode of Lord Narayan and the ancestors (Pitrs). On Jyestha Purnima, offer water from a vessel mixed with raw milk and sugar or batasha (a sweet) to the Peepal tree. Also light a lamp under the tree. This pleases the ancestors and brings blessings from Lord Narayan and Goddess Lakshmi.
Observing a fast on this day is said to bring happiness, prosperity, peace in the family, and fulfillment of wishes. Donating water-filled pitchers, clothes, grains, umbrellas, fans, etc., is considered highly auspicious. In some regions, Vat Savitri Vrat is also observed on Jyestha Purnima instead of Jyestha Amavasya.
Rituals and Remedies for Jyestha Purnima
* This day is especially dear to Goddess Lakshmi. Worship her along with Lord Narayan and offer them kheer (a sweet rice pudding).
* Invite five young girls to your home, serve them food, give them dakshina (a token offering), and see them off by touching their feet. Goddess Lakshmi is believed to be very pleased with this act. If you continue this ritual on every Purnima (full moon), it is said that your hardships will soon end, and wealth will flow freely.
* Reciting the Lakshmi Stotra and Kanakadhara Stotra on this day is considered very auspicious.
* Small sea shells (Cowries) are highly favored by Goddess Lakshmi. Apply turmeric and saffron to 11 cowries, worship them along with Goddess Lakshmi, and recite the Kanakadhara Stotra. The next day, wrap the cowries in a red cloth and place them in your locker or wardrobe. This is believed to bring wealth and prosperity to the home.

Panjiri, makhana: Janmashtami treats with a makhani touch
Artisanal butter pistachio laddoos If there's one thing we all know about Lord Krishna, it's that he was a certified makhan chor. So, what better way to celebrate his birthday than with dishes where white butter takes the spotlight? Not the store-bought, mass-produced kind, but fresh, small-batch artisanal white butter that's creamy, pure, and oh-so-delicious. This year, let's take some Janmashtami classics and give them a buttery touch. 'Bring artisanal butter to room temperature before mixing, but cook it on a low flame as it burns faster than ghee, says Chef Neelam Sharma. 'Fresh white butter has a shorter shelf life, so make small batches and use within 3-4 days for the best flavour,' adds Anita Gautam, home chef. Makhan Mishri – Butter in its purest form: It doesn't get more traditional than this. A dollop of white butter, a sprinkle of sugar crystals, done! But when you use artisanal white butter, there's a gentle tang and creaminess that takes this humble offering to heavenly heights. Serve it in little clay pots, maybe sneak a spoonful for yourself. Artisanal Butter Pistachio Laddoos - Soft, rich and buttery: Ghee laddoos are great, but have you tried artisanal white-butter laddoos? The texture is softer, almost cloud-like, and when you add crunchy pistachios, you get that perfect sweet-salty-nutty bite. Roasted makhanas with butter-coated crunch: Here's proof that butter can turn a simple snack into a festival star. Toss makhanas in melted artisanal white butter, season with rock salt, pepper, and dried mint, and you've got a light yet indulgent treat. The butter clings to every bite, making them irresistibly moreish. Panjiri with butter-roasted goodness: When panjiri is slow-roasted in white butter instead of ghee, the difference is unmistakable. The butter imparts a silky richness, making the flour aromatic and the dry fruits luxuriously coated. It's comfort food that wears its festive finery well. Sweet potato cutlets with a golden buttery touch: Pan-frying sweet potato cutlets in artisanal butter gives them a crisp, golden crust and keeps the insides soft. The butter's flavour shines through every bite, making these fasting-friendly cutlets feel like a royal indulgence. Why choose artisanal white butter? Fresh and preservative-free, made in small batches. Naturally creamy with a hint of tang. Versatile - enhances both sweet and savoury recipes. How to: Make Makhan Mishri at home Chill 4 tbsp fresh white butter. Lightly crush 2 tbsp mishri. Gently fold the mishri into the butter - don't overmix. Serve in clay pots, garnish with saffron strands. Tip: Use artisanal white butter for the creamiest, most flavourful result.

#Navroz: Matcha and rose falooda, mawa ni boi cheesecake: Parsi sweets with a twist
Kopra pak Written by: Yasaswi Kochar Ravo Like every new year celebrated in India, Navroz (August 15) is incomplete without traditional sweets. Restaurateur Rushad Ginwala tells us, 'I prefer traditional versions. I am not against enriching traditional recipes, but I don't like too many twists. However, dietary needs can be kept in mind for vegans or those who prefer less sugar.' There are various options which can replace sugar in these traditional desserts. Says chef Aman Tandon, 'Every traditional Parsi dessert has a unique flavour profile and texture, making them a delightful experience. To make it more appealing to the individuals who are health-conscious, sugar can be replaced with date and palm jaggery, organic honey, forms of sucrose or natural sugar or anjeer paste.' Desi sweets with a Parsi twist: Gulab jamun with a Parsi twist: Stuff gulab jamuns with sweet lentil filling, just like in dar ni pori. The filling, a mix of lentils, jaggery, and Parsi spices, is cooked to a thick consistency. The result is a decadent sweet with a classic soft, syrupy exterior and a nutty, spiced centre Malpua made with ravo and served with mithoo dahi : The Parsi-inspired malpuas are made with rava and infused with cardamom and nutmeg, and served warm with a dollop of mithoo dahi instead of the traditional rabdi – Inputs by Chef Jay Kasawlekar Sev is a simple vermicelli dessert served to celebrate significant occasions Modern twists to traditional sweets: Mawa ni boi cheesecake : A two-tiered filling, bottom layer is a fudge-like base made from mawa, with nuts and cardamom. The top layer is a classic baked cheesecake infused with rose water and nutmeg. The crust is made from crushed nankhatai cookies and is finished with a caramelised sugar crust, like crème brûlée. Garnish with chandi varq. Matcha and rose falooda: A layered dessert built on a creamy, cardamom-spiced milk base that blends the earthy notes of matcha with a rich texture. A classic rose syrup provides a sweet, fragrant foundation and colour, while soft vermicelli and gelatinous sabja seeds add the falooda textures. 'Vessels and methods do make a huge difference, the best example is lagan nu custard. Traditionally, it is cooked in trays over coal. The taste of caramelised sugars and smokiness is tough to reproduce in commercial ovens,' says Tiraz Commessariat, owner of a Parsi eatery.
