Kande Pohe

Kande pohe - In Maharashtrian families, the formal meeting of the boy and girl for marriage engagement  is referred to as Kande-pohe or Chaha-pohe. ...kande pohe with topping of grated coconut , chopped coriander and a slice of lemon. As the name sounds it is  a traditional Maharastrian recipe of rice flakes ,mostly eaten for breakfast in Marathi homes . This is the dish you will expect to be made when you are a guest at any Marathi home and no matter what time of the day it is we offer this usually with tea to our guest .

The most amazing aspect about this dish is that it is being made  from years till today and despite the advent of many other dishes is still the key dish in traditional Marathi families.
Even Kellogg’s could not replace it 😊

Back to Basics: As you all are aware that it takes 24 hours for the Earth to rotate once on its axis. We split the globe into time zones using imaginary lines called meridians. They run from the North Pole to the South Pole, crossing lines of latitude. There are 24 time zones. Out of these 24 there is one such imaginary line running through the UK called the  Prime Meridian . It runs through a place in London called Greenwich. I  am yet to visit this place in London UK, I will promise to share the pics of that imaginary line with me  . The Prime Meridian splits the world into eastern and western  hemispheres . Time in countries to the  east  of the Prime Meridian is always in front of that in the UK. Time in countries to the  west  of the Prime Meridian is always behind that of the UK.

It gives me a great pride in remembering that 15th Day of Jan 2017, when I met this great person in Lavasa.I was there on a official workshop where Abhilash sir was invited as chief guest. I was completely unaware of this personality before I heard him giving the speech and telling about circum navigation of the world ( earth ).   Commander Abhilash Tomy is an s an Indian naval officer and yachtsman. In 2013, he became the first Indian to complete a solo, un assisted, non-stop circumnavigation of the globe on INSV Mhadei. He also competed in the 2018 Golden Globe Race. What a phenomenal achievements when you are just 40s and still going for greater heights. I just don’t have enough words to express my feelings. He is not a ordinary soldier, he is champion sailor, decorated Naval officer and he is a ultimate survivor. To me Abhilash Tomy is no less than a miracle. That miracle would not have been possible with his unimaginable courage, perseverance and never say Die Spirit. You ...
