I learn this recipe from my mom. We call it in Gujarati – “Aadu Paak” (Aadu means ginger ).This is good for those child who has a cold problem in winter. Take one small piece of this every night and after that drink water. It is very beneficial in cold and good fro throat infection too.




It will stay good at room temperature in cold atmosphere for about 45 days.

This is my entry to Rosie for JFI- Ginger.

Hi Kajal ,

Your stuff looks great . When you say dry grated coconut - is it the desiccated one ? By the way , which brand of garam masala do you use ?

Kajal said...

Hi kalpakam,
Well come to my blog. I am not use any garam masala in this item. Dry coconut is available in market.
Have a nice day.:))
