Greetings. Saying this from my loving home land India. You guessed it right, I am vacationing and in 100% holiday mood. This time of the year is what I enthusiastically look for to get a desired break from this online world. Because it’s relaxing, refreshing and quite soothing feeling to be with my parents after a long year. Like every year, heavy down pour of monsoon welcomed me here which was extremely awesome feeling after 3 months of sunny life in UAE. Above all, my kids have much excited buzz running through them to meet and play with grand parents. So all in all, happiness all around. Having said this, I don’t give up my readers with no recipe posts during my vacation and now lemon shavige shows up.

Do you remember instant shavige recipe which I shared couple of weeks back? If not, go check right now. Because this lemon shavige is kind of extension to that. The instant rice flour shavige is not a complete breakfast, it does need some side dishes like chutney or sambar to become a complete tiffin. Or else you can give massive makeover to the bland instant shavige with some spices like this lemon shavige.

The lemon-y flavored, attractive yellow shaded lemon shavige gets a perfect breakfast badge from kids. Because kids love noodles kind of stuff and probably this breakfast looks similar to rice noodles. And you have all the liberty to play around with recipe to match it with your kids taste preferences. Like you can throw in some crunchy vegetables like capsicum, onion or grated carrot so that the food seems appealing and colorful to them. Also this food can stay fresh in tiffin box and can keep the kid’s tummy full. I am already scheming to consider this as kid’s lunch box recipe for the after-vacation schooling.
