Our regular diet must include milk because it is a rich source of numerous critical elements. A daily glass of milk gives you the recommended amount of calcium as well as other essential nutrients including protein, phosphorus, potassium, iodine, riboflavin, and pantothenic acid. In particular for vegans, milk helps to fulfill the daily requirement for vitamin B12. Additionally, milk supports good immune function, blood pressure regulation, the growth of the brain, and the maintenance of strong muscles, bones, and teeth. World Milk Day is celebrated on June 1 each year.
There are many ways to enjoy these dairy treats, from rich smoothies to hearty paneer dishes. The following are some delectable dishes that can be created with milk or dairy products:
- Smoothie
The goodness of yoghurt, fresh fruits, and the additional richness of nuts or peanut butter are all combined in a delicious smoothie, which is a blended drink. It’s a great way to start the day off right with flavor and nutrition.
2. Latte
Boiling a glass of organic milk with a combination of fragrant spices will help you fall asleep faster. Three to four strands of saffron should be added first, followed by a dash of cinnamon, haldi (turmeric), and pepper. During the milk’s gentle simmering, these components’ delicious flavors and healthful qualities will be infused. And presto!
3. Overnight or soaked oats
Prepare soaking or overnight oats to make a wholesome breakfast choice. Simply combine 2 to 3 tablespoons of oats with 1/2 cup of yoghurt, 3/4 cup of your favorite fruit, 3/4 cup of roasted nuts, and 2 teaspoons of dark chocolate chips in a container and refrigerate for a whole night. You’ll have a delectable and healthy breakfast ready the next morning.
4. Vegetables in a tomato basil soup with a stir-fry
Try stir-frying vegetables with 40 g of natural grated cheese for a healthy and delicious meal. Start by stir-frying a variety of fresh veggies until they are vivid and delicate. Add around 40 g of shredded natural cheese after that, allowing it to melt and provide a flavorful, creamy covering. Serve the stir-fried vegetables with a hearty tomato basil soup to round out the meal.
5. Grated paneer
Layer seasoned and peppered grated paneer over slices of veggies like tomato, lettuce, or brinjal for a flavorful and protein-rich evening snack. Grate the paneer first, then season it with your preferred spices. After that, put the shredded paneer together as a filling by generously sprinkling it over slices of fresh vegetables such as tomato, lettuce, or brinjal. Bake the vegetables and paneer in this mouthwatering combination until they are soft.
