Yum mum’s tantrum recipes!

Yum mum’s tantrum recipes!


Do you have to win over your kid with chocolates or ice-creams every evening just so he scrapes his snack off his/her plate? Are you tired of these continuous tantrums — ‘I don’t want idli’, ‘Ew it’s tomato soup’ or ‘You make poha everyday’! You get the gist. Every mom must’ve wondered if they could make their kiddos eat healthy food without the consequent, ‘I don’t like this and that’, that usually follows after you’ve comfortably tucked him/her into the special dine-in chair. Well, Mummy Ka Magic extends a warm embrace to all those moms. You know you’re in for a treat when you watch Indian snack recipes with a tasty twist being whipped up in minutes. That’s what the mom in you roots for. The idli becomes colourful, pizza masaledaar, but healthy, and the soup chutneyfied! Amrita Raichand, as the host, is every inch a desi competition to the sizzling Nigella Lawson. The show is shot even proves the point somewhat. The attempt may be deliberate but it is effective. A family bonder for sure; you’re hooked instantly. For the aspirational mom, Amrita is a diva when it comes to cooking. So you obviously expect her to churn out dishes that please the eyes and indulge the tummy. At her colourful kitchen therefore, you get recipes ranging from hash browns to pancakes, burgers, cakes, cookies, shakes and more! She fuses the nutritious broccoli with tingling peppers and adds just the right dose of cheese. There’s as much cilantro as there is chaat masala in her recipes. Oh! And your pizza can also have a ‘saucy’ smile or the sandwiches a caterpillar walk!
