Makhana smoothie recipe: Makhana kheer is a popular choice when it comes to fasting days. But do you know there’s another way you can have this healthy food – in the form of a protein-rich makhana smoothie!
Makhana is a protein-rich food, low in fat and carbs, a magic potion for those wishing to lose weight.
Here we tell you how to make makhana smoothie at home. It’s simple, delicious and super healthy! When mixed with other protein-rich foods like peanuts and almonds, it gives you loads of energy.
Ingredients:
(Serving – 2)
1 cup makhana
2 tbsp peanuts
2 tbsp almonds
2 tbsp honey
1 glass milk
Raisins for garnishing
1 tsp mixed seeds for garnishing
Directions
1 – Heat an empty pan and dry roast the makhanas till they change their colour and turn slightly brown. Keep aside.
2 – In the same pan, roast peanuts and almonds too. Keep aside.
3 – When makhana, peanuts and almonds come down to room temperature, put them in a mixer-grinder. Add milk and grind them to a smooth liquid. Add honey and blitz again for a few seconds to combine the honey well.
4 – Pour in glasses and garnish with raisins and seeds.
If you want to skip adding honey, you can; because raisins will add ample sweetness to the milkshake. And if you don’t like the taste of raw seeds, you can roast them too before garnishing or simply blend along with the rest of the ingredients.
