Lassi

-

 This sweet Lassi which I make at home is very light and can be had after a Heavy meal . It is usually served in  Huge glasses topped with nuts and fruits .Some tend to have it with Parathas and Samosa chats. It is especially relished in hot summers because of its cooling properties.For Flavouring , you can add cardamom powder or rose water. Garnish it with cardamom powder and some sliced almonds while serving. Adding saffron to the lassi is optional.


Lassi can be consumed as just sweet drink, but practically it is an excellent accompaniment for spicy food. as a matter of fact, any curd or butter milk based drink can reduce the heat of spicy food gives a calming effect to the stomach and mind too. in addition, it is scientifically proven, that yogurt helps to improve digestion after heavy meal. in addition it is usually topped with dry  fruits like badam and pista which is obviously good for health.


Ingredients:

1. Curd -1 liter

2. Cardamom 6 slices

3. Sugar as per taste

4. Nuts for Garnishing

5. Ice water

6. Saffron -few strands

7. Rose water 2 spoon

Instructions:

1. In a bowl or pan, take 2 cups fresh chilled yogurt. I used homemade curd.

2. With a  blender or wired whisk just mix the curd till it becomes smooth.

3. The curd should be smooth before you add other ingredients to it.

4. Add 10 to 12 tbsp sugar or as required.

5. Take 8 to 10 cardamom pods and crush them. Remove the husk and crush the seeds.
 
6. Crush a few  saffron strands.
 
7. Then add 2 cups chilled water. You can also add 2 cups chilled milk, instead of water. 
 
8. The consistency of this lassi is neither thin nor thick. If you want a thick lassi, then add 1 to 1.5 cups water.
 
9. Keep on churning till the sugar dissolves and you see a nice frothy layer on top.
 
10. Add ice cubes and mix them again.
 
11. Pour lassi in tall glasses and serve.

If you are learning machine learning for getting a high profile data science job then you can’t miss out learning these best machine learning algorithms. Here, we will go through classification and regression algorithms. While there are many more algorithms that are present in the arsenal of machine learning, our focus will be on the most popular machine learning algorithms. These ML algorithms are quite essential for developing predictive modeling and for carrying out classification and prediction. These ML algorithms are the most useful for carrying out prediction and classification in both supervised as well as unsupervised scenarios. REGRESSION: Before knowing what is linear regression, let us get ourselves accustomed to regression. Regression is a method of modelling a target value based on independent predictors. This method is mostly used for forecasting and finding out cause and effect relationship between variables. Regression techniques mostly differ based on the number of ...

A GENTLE INTRODUCTION TO MACHINE LEARNING CONCEPTS

  Machine learning is an application of artificial intelligence (AI) that provides systems the ability to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed. Machine learning focuses on the development of computer programs that can access data and use it to learn for themselves. The process of learning begins with observations or data, such as examples, direct experience, or instruction, in order to look for patterns in data and make better decisions in the future based on the examples that we provide. The primary aim is to allow the computers learn automatically without human intervention or assistance and adjust actions accordingly. Some Machine Learning Methods Machine learning algorithms are often categorized as supervised or unsupervised. Let's see them in brief with some illustrations. Supervised Learning As the name indicates, supervised learning involves machine learning algorithms that learn under the presence of a supervisor. Learning unde...

WHY IS NODE JS A GOOD CHOICE TO LEARN IN 2020? In case you're wondering "what is Node.js?" It's a JavaScript runtime environment which allows the infrastructure to build and run an application. It’s a light, scalable, and cross-platform way to execute code. It uses an event-driven I/O model which makes it extremely efficient and makes scalable network application possible. With more than a billion downloads, Node.js thrives in building real-time applications, Internet of Things, and micro services. It’s gaining traction faster than any other technology and ranks in the top most-in-demand developer skills. Why  Node.js ? Node.js offers the developers the luxury of writing the server-side applications in the JavaScript. Since JavaScript is one of the most popular programming languages, most of the front-end developers have a good grasp over it.Node.js has been regarded as a full-stack JavaScript for serving both the client and the server-side applications. Therefore, th...
