Apple Pie

Rakhi means bonding over long standing rituals and traditions. It also represents the everlasting love and respect which is the basis of relationships in India. Although Rakhi signifies the bond between a brother and a sister but it is also a symbol of warmth and compassion shared between communities as a whole.

I dedicate this recipe to this auspecious occasion of Rakhi.

Apple - 2

Breadcrums - 6 fresh bread pieces

Sugar - 4 tbsp
