Happy Independence day to all my readers :). Independence day always reminds me about the government holiday , flag hosting at school and the patriotic atmosphere every were. I miss those school days when we had few programs at school on independence day and at the end where the sweets being distributed. India is celebrating 67 th independence today and we are always thankful to those who fought for our freedom.After getting married there was not much to do on independence day but to simply enjoy our freedom watching Tv shows in my case. Other than watching for patriotic Tv shows I love to make some tri color food on the day as we are away from India and I want to remember the day and celebrate it in our home.
I have made Tri color idli and tri color chutney before and this year I made a tricolor rasgulla to enjoy with my family and it is super simple to make. I love making rasgulla and this is one sweet I make it often at home.Adding colors to the rasgulla and making it more colorful and perfect for independence day was my moto and they came out just fantastic. My H enjoyed it a lot and he liked that it was indian flag color . I make rasgulla with lemon juice but this time I made it with vinegar and till came out perfect. Lets move on to the recipe.
