Masala Paal | Spiced Turmeric Milk Recipe

Masala Paal / Masala Milk Recipe

The wet raining weather and chilled climate calls for some warm comfort drink to kick start the day/ evening. I was craving for some Masala Paal (Masala Milk) and Nice biscuits. The weather makes things so comforting that all I wanted to do is roll under my sheets and this warm soothing drink just awakened my senses. And I just remembered that I was supposed to share my experiences with the Dell Venue 7 Tab. And today I will be sharing my browsing experience with this amazing 7" companion.

COOKS WISDOM

TIP 1

1. I love making masala paal in full fat milk but you can always use 3% milk too. It gives a lovely richness to the drink.

TIP 2

2. I did not use any nuts but adding them will give a great taste.

TIP 3

3. Do not add too much turmeric powder, a little goes a long way. Also you could add little masala chai powder for a lovely aroma and skip the use of whole spices. Dry ginger powder also gives an amazing flavor to the drink. 

TIP 4

4. For cough and cold use a little pepper ( a pinch) for 2 cups milk. It gives a soothing effect to cough cold and congestion.

Dell Venue Tab 7 Review

DELL VENUE TAB 7 REVIEW

If you had been following my bog closely you must have seen my earlier review posts of the Dell Venue tab 7. Its been couple of months now with the tablet and I find myself using it a lot more these days. I find the tablet more handy than a laptop. Its light in weight, easy to carry with one hand and totally great to use when I am on bed lying down. What I do with the tablet all day is what I wanted to cover in this post. As I sip my cup of masala paal I will be sharing my experience with Dell. 

I usually click pictures for my blog with my DSLR, I prep the post with pictures and titles and save them on draft and later using my Dell tab I start typing the post and posting recipes. I also publish comments and check stats on my blogger dashboard and blog hop. 
I find Dell very user friendly similar to my nexus 7 and I guess its because of the user friendly OS. Although we do own a 10" ipad its really huge and cannot be held in one hand so find myself going to the Dell Venue tab more often.

In terms of browsing and reading I find the Dell more convenient and easy. I even gave the tablet to my mom to use and she almost easily got the whole hang of using it in less than 5 minutes. Mind you she is quite used to her ipad and she didn't have any qualms using Dell Venue. 

Dell's dual core Intel Atom processor lets me download many apps few of my favorite apps being - Sweet n Spicy, Whats app, Facebook, Facebook pages (CooklikePriya), Insagram, Pinterest, Twitter,Bible, YouTube, Instacollage, Flipkart, Groupon and so on. I am not a huge game fan, so you will hardly see any fame apps in my Dell Venue. The 16 GB memory space gives me ample space to download apps and store pictures, videos. 

Cook like Priya - Dell Venue Tab 7 (Product Review)

Dell Venue 7 horizontal view lets me view my website in full screen without having to shorten the menus tab. I also use this to get a hang of how fast my website loads on an android device. Also I check the layout and design of my website which you guys know I keep changing fonts, header, designs and it helps.
