    Food plays a significant role during a particular festival. I love different cuisines; however, now I will talk about my favourite one.

    • What the food is

    It is Jaggery rice which is a traditional Punjabi sweet dish made with jaggery, rice and spices. There are some variations of jaggery rice in Indian cuisine and this recipe comes from Punjabi cuisine. A vegan and gluten-free rice dish that can be made for any festive occasion.

    • At which festival or event it’s eaten

    I love to eat this cuisine during the festival of harvesting on April 13 every year. My family likes it very much since it provides tranquillity and easy to digest.

    • How it’s prepared

    This jaggery rice is a favourite of everyone at home. The recipe is easy and quick to make and tastes too good. This recipe is especially loved by kids or people who have a sweet tooth. We have to take around 100 grams of jaggery. Then we have to soak it in around 3/4 cup of water for 30 to 45 minutes. If there are impurities, then filter the jaggery syrup using a fine mesh strainer and keep it aside.

    Then, we have to pick, clean and wash ¾ cup rice a couple of times in water. Moreover, we have to soak the rice for 15 to 20 minutes in water. Later drain all the water and set the rice aside. Then, we have to boil both materials with spices like cardamom and other dry fruits.

    • Why you like it

    Eating jaggery rice helps in blood purification, aids digestion, relieves joint pain, bolsters energy levels and boosts immunity. As evidenced by its mention in ancient books, jaggery has been a part of Indian cuisines for at least a millennium. It is used in both sweet and savoury dishes across India.

Part - 3 - All Cue Cards

Part 3 belongs to all new cue cards from September to December 2022. We have written the answers on our own except for one topic. Hence, we hold the copyright status of the answers written by us. 1.  Describe an object you find particularly beautiful (For example, a painting, sculpture, piece of jewellery/furniture, etc.). 1. Do   you   think   there   are   more   beautiful   things   now   than  in  the   past? In my opinion, traditional art and sculptures are much more captivating. I think in the past, it was easier for artists to find shoppers in the form of kings and nobles and they could focus on their art without any financial worries. However, today it is much harder to earn money as an artist. The art being made today also reflects that – it is done more as a hobby rather than as a profession and the works produced are far behind those of the past. Moreover, nowadays artists rely on machine work instead of handmade items.  2.   Do you think there are many scenic spots in India

Speaking Part 1 - January to April 2023

  Fast Food and Break Fast What do you have for breakfast? I prefer to have my favourite food items during the first meal of the day. Usually, I like wheat bread with freshly cooked vegetables like Okra, Turnip, beans and cauliflower. Along with this, I love to take a cup of tea. However, during weekends, my mother cooks stuffed bread for me, and amongst all these bread types, my favourite one is potato-filled bread with curd and homemade butter.  Do you eat fast food? Yes, I do, but once a fortnight, I prefer to have it. It is owing to the bad cholesterols present in junk food materials. In this category, I find cheese burst pizza, garlic bread and white sauce Italian pasta mouth-watering.  What are the different kinds of fast food in your country? Name them. India has an ocean of fast food materials. For instance, Chinese, Italian and American fast materials are the most popular ones in India. Moreover, we have traditional fast foods as well.  The first one is a savoury stuffed pastr
