Organic Anando Nadu with millets By Nisupta Bhattacharya

Nisupta Bhattacharya is an entrepreneur. She is the power behind the online boutique AngaChaya. In her own words, Anando Nadu is a special Bengal sweet usually made during auspicious occasions like the sacred thread ceremony/weddings. As its related to auspiciousness, I last made them during my son’s sacred thread ceremony. Recently learnt to make it on my own.I must thank my friend Arpita Ghosh who helped me go organic for a better healthy lifestyle. Today made it with fully organic ingredients & mixed in millet.
