    Making The Ultimate Durga Puja Veg Party Platter

    Bangali’s love for Doodh Cha (Milk Tea) is boundless. But seldom will you find the Bangali drinking Doodh Cha alone. There’s always a bun, biscuit or fritters to accompany his or her favourite beverage often called as the ‘Taa’ to rhyme with ‘Cha’.

    However, special occasions need a special menu, and when it is a carnival like Durga Puja, your party snack just cannot be the usual “bhaja-bhuji (fritters)” that you feast on daily!

    “Bhai Pujo bole kotha, ektu special kichu hobe na? (Ultimately, it’s Puja. Won’t there be anything special?”)

    Of course, yes! We will tell you how to make your Durga Puja celebrations delicious by curating a special veg snack platter with us. From Gharowa (homely) get-togethers to Jompesh (interesting) adda sessions to fancy kitty parties, our range of Keventer ready-to-cook snacks finds place in every Bangali’s heart.

    From football to politics, bad pandal lighting to great Bhog, every discussion becomes extra juicy with Keventer Chaupati Aloo Tikki. And if you have some Ghugni (Bengali yellow pea curry) at home, then oh ho ho… “Byapar ta just jome jabe (This snack will taste awesome)!” Take a traditional Salpata plate, put some Ghugni on it, add two Chaupati Aloo Tikkis and top it with some tamarind chutney— you’ll forget what you were discussing while you gobble this tasty delicacy!

    To further spice up your Puja addas at home, make the Keventer Chilli Garlic Potato Shots and serve with some spicy chilli chutney or tomato sauce. These little fritters take only 2.5 minutes to make and you don’t even need to thaw them before you throw them into the pan. Deep fry until golden brown and keeping popping them into your mouth during your spicy conversations.

    Festive kitty-parties need fancy festive food. While you organise a themed gala at home, make sure to add our ready-to-cook Keventer Onion Rings and Keventer Cheese Burst Nuggets to your Durga Puja special snacks. Both these delicious fritters become ready in only 2-3 minutes leaving enough time for you to indulge into juicy gossip sessions while you’ve got your party platter sorted.

    This Durga Puja, make every moment delicious with Keventer easy-to-cook snacks. Grab them from Blinkit, Zepto, Swiggy Instamart, Amazon Fresh, Spencer’s, or Reliance Smart, today!

  • There’s No Durga Puja Pandal Hopping without Ice Cream Gobbling!

    There’s No Durga Puja Pandal Hopping without Ice Cream Gobbling!

    Perhaps the most indulgent side of Durga Puja, the grandest festival of Bengal, is the joy of savouring street food from hawkers and devouring delicious ice creams from little stalls that line the pathway leading to a pandal. As the streets of the capital city transforms into a grand tapestry of culture, art, and devotion, energetic pandal hoppers, Bangali and non-Bangali alike, look forward to this sweet treat that sometimes comes as a respite in the sweltering heat.

    “Oi dekho ekta Keventer Metro Ice Cream stall. Ekta stick ice cream khele hoe na (Look! There’s a Keventer Metro Ice Cream stall! Can’t we treat ourselves to a stick ice cream)?” a friend points out to another.

    “Chawww na! Onek to hatlam, ebar toke ekta ice cream khawai (We’ve walked enough. Let me treat you to an ice cream)!” the tired lover pleads.

    “Pandal mein bahut bheer hai yaar, ice cream kha kar ghar chalte hai (The pandal looks overcrowded. Let’s just have an ice cream and return home)!” the non-Bangali calls it a day with a sweet ending.

    Amidst the hustle and bustle of Durga Puja celebrations, one can often hear someone beg for this dessert break. Crowds gather around Keventer Metro Ice Cream stalls with the same gusto with which they collect in pandals. The vendors offer a delightful array of flavours from classic vanilla and choco chip to more exotic options like Yum Aam, Konez and Barz. If you are lucky enough, you might also get a Keventer Metro Nolen Gur Ice Cream Cup while stocks last!

    The joy of licking a cone or savouring a cup, while hopping from one pandal to another, adds a delightful twist to the grand carnival. And when it is a favourite ice cream brand such as Keventer Metro, the joy just doubles! The creamy texture and rich flavour of each ice cream simply melts in the mouth, providing a perfect breather from the humid air of the city.

    So, this Durga Puja, while pandal hopping, do not forget to hop into your nearest Keventer Metro Ice Cream stall. We’ll wait right there for you to make some sweet memories that will linger on way beyond the festive season!

  • Making Delicious Durga Puja Sweets At Home

    Making Delicious Durga Puja Sweets At Home

    Durga Puja is just around the corner and we are super excited! “Bangali manei Pujo, Bangali manei pet puja (Bengalis are synonymous to Durga Pujo, and Bengalis are synonymous to food)!”

    As the air fills up with the smell of Shiuli ‘Phool (flower)’, the ‘Kash Phool (Kans Grass)’ pops up here and there, Bengal gets decked up to celebrate its most extravagant event of the year. As is ritual, pandals across the state and especially in Kolkata will get flooded with enthusiastic pandal hoppers and evenings will end with joyous get-togethers. Family and friends will return to the city and guests will start pouring into your home. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could treat them to something traditional yet something homemade?

    This Durga Puja, pleasantly surprise your guests with some of Bengal’s best desserts made at home. All you need are packs of Keventer Metro Cow Milk or Keventer Metro Rich Milk and a few basic ingredients.

    Before you start making these sweet Bengali milk dishes, the first thing you need to do is boil the milk and add some lemon juice or vinegar to make some ‘chhena (cottage cheese)’. Hang the ‘chhena’ in a cotton cloth and let the water drain out. There! Your key ingredient is ready for one…two…three.. oh so many easy DIY Bengali sweets!

    Begin with the ‘Roshogolla’. Yes! Bangalis don’t call it Rasgulla because they fill the sweet with the ‘Rosh of labh (the syrup of love)’! The art of making it right, lies in kneading the ‘chhena’ right and turning it into perfectly round balls. Boil it in some thick syrup made of sugar and water, and you’re done!

    Don’t forget to try the Chhanar payesh – the traditional Bengali kheer made with cottage cheese and thick cow milk.

    If you want to appear all fancy, Sandesh is your next level up. BTW, Kalakand isn’t as tough to make as you think.

    However, if you do not want to go through the trouble of making cottage cheese but still prepare a delicious sweet dish at home, we have another milk recipe up our sleeve! Simply make the Chaaler Payesh (traditional Bengali Kheer made of rice).

    Which one of these special Durga Puja desserts will you try this festive season? Whichever idea you go for don’t forget to shop for Keventer Metro Cow Milk or Keventer Metro Rich Milk from Blinkit.

  • Mishti Doi: An Evergreen Durga Puja Tradition

    Mishti Doi: An Evergreen Durga Puja Tradition

    Mishti Doi plays a vital role in many Bengali celebrations, but during Durga Puja, it takes the centre stage as the most beloved dessert. This sweet yoghurt, traditionally set in earthen pots, boasts of a creamy texture and a delightful sweetness no other version of curd, yoghurt, or even frozen yoghurt can offer.

    It is an age-old traditional practice in Bengali households to carry huge earthen post of Mishti Doi when visiting friends or family, during Durga Puja. The dessert acts as a befitting gift, fostering joyous moments of togetherness, whether on Sashti, when the Puja’s begin, or on Bijoya Dashami, when the celebrations come to an end.

    This sweet yoghurt bears religious significance too. Mishti Doi is offered to the deity as a part of ritualistic practices with utmost reverence. It is a cultural tradition to serve Mishti Doi as the dessert at the end of the traditional ‘Bhog’ organised in Puja pandals. Walk into a pandal on a lazy Durga Puja afternoon and you’ll witness someone or the other from the pandal locality, sitting on a typical plastic chair, and relishing a Keventer Metro Mishti Doi cup with not a care in the world!

    And that is how every Durga Puja celebration is meant to be—sweet, refreshing, and a much-awaited break from the monotony of daily life. However, what is strange to notice is that a practice which started eons ago, continues to sustain even after years of modernisation. From Baby Boomers to Gen Alpha, this sweet yoghurt has a huge fan following across generations!

    So, as you step into this year’s festivities, don’t forget to add Keventer Metro Mishti Doi to your special Durga Puja food menu whether as a traditional practice or simply because you love this delight! Buy it from your nearest grocery store and give all your grand puja feasts a sweet ending.

  • Make Perfect French Fries at Home, Every Time!

    Make Perfect French Fries at Home, Every Time!

    “Ah ha ha! Maza aa gaya!”

    That’s what everyone’s gonna say when you fry and serve Keventer French Fries at home. However, while these easy French fries can be made ready in only a couple of minutes, frying them perfectly is an art. Talent lagta hai yaar!

    So, if you want to make some good French fries at home, grab a Keventer French Fries packet from the nearest grocery store or shopkeventer.com, and follow these awesome French fries cooking tips we’ve curated for you to ensure you, your family, your friends or your guests feast on the crispiest French fries ever!

    Super Tip #1: If you are frying them, then fry them properly! Do not use a frying pan but a heavy bottomed pot instead, that can be filled with at least 2-3 inches of oil. Deep fry them at 170 – 175 °C for 2-3 minutes to get super crispy French fries.

    Super Tip #2: Be patient and do not throw all the French fries in at once. That’s your recipe for disaster! Overcrowding your pot will reduce the temperature of your oil drastically in an instant, leaving your yummy French fries in a half-cooked, soggy form. So, fry the French fries in small batches.

    Super Tip #3: We know that all you health enthusiasts have been waiting for this part! If you want to skip deep frying, preheat your oven to 220°C. Spread the French fries in a single layer on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray and bake for 15-18 minutes. Halfway through, flip them to make those ultimate, crispy salted French fries. You can also make crispy French fries in air fryers the same way.

    French fries for birthdays, French fries for parties and gatherings, French fries for kids, French fries for lunch or French fries for dinner – now you know where to get restaurant style French fries. At your home, duh!

    Grab the best-selling French fries from Keventer and enjoy it with your favourite sauces and dips, full on! If you have any quick French fries seasoning ideas, do share them with us!

  • Bananas Might Just Be Your Gut’s Best Pal

    Bananas Might Just Be Your Gut’s Best Pal

    Are bananas good for your digestive system? Hell, yeah!

    However, before we delve deeper into how this sweet marvel works like magic for your digestive health, let’s just make a note of all the goodness it’s packed with.

    An ordinary banana fruit which is 100% carbide-free, for instance, like a Keventer banana, is rich in fibres and potassium. It is also totally fat-free, cholesterol-free, and sodium-free. A real banana will also have oodles of Vitamin B6, Vitamin C, and various antioxidants and phytonutrients. Now all of these play a vital part in supporting good digestive health. Read on, to know how.

    Improving digestion

    Let’s begin with a banana’s fibre content. Not only does a medium sized banana provide for 10% of an adult’s daily fibre need, but the fibre and the water in the fruit promote regularity and induce better digestive health. While high-fibre content can cause bloating, gas, or stomach cramps, not bananas. They, according to a study conducted in 2021, improve symptoms, instead. Bananas also contain the fibre, ‘pectin’, which plays an important role in how your body controls the rate of digestion of carbohydrates.

    Replenishing vital nutrients

    When you suffer from diarrhoea, you know how much water you lose. However, along with fluids you also lose vital electrolytes such as potassium. Now, bananas being rich in this nutrient, easily replenish the deficit.

    Probiotic power

    The probiotics in bananas are the same as the good bacteria found in your gut. The fruit also contains prebiotics and carbs that feed these good bacteria. These probiotics can ease irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), also aid in treating some gut infections, and lessen lactose intolerance.

    Maintaining a balance

    Bananas also contain a unique fructose-filled carb called Fructooligosaccharides (FOS). This is a nutrient that the body cannot completely digest, but which, upon reaching the lower intestine, helps in maintaining the balance of good bacteria.

    Vitamin support

    Finally, Vitamin B6, which contains Pyridoxine, helps your digestive system by processing the proteins you intake. By boosting protein metabolism, it also helps maintain the balance of amino acids in the body.

    Now that you know how amazing this fruit is when it comes to promoting good digestive health, rush to your nearest store to grab some 100% carbide-free Keventer bananas. Indulge in this sweet, nutritious treat to keep yourself and your gut, happy.
