Finally today i am free so here i am sharing few benefits of apple cider vinegar
First of all when buying apple cider vinegar keep these things in mind:
1. always buy ORGANIC ACV, if it's not organic that means its processed and you won't get any benefit from it.
2. do not buy ACV sold in plastic bottles and never ever store your ACV in plastic bottles or container, always store it in glass container. 
ACV can be used to treat several problems. I won't discuss them all but try to cover few problems

ACV is a great remedy for weight lose, it stimulates the digestion and detox your body very quickly. it eliminates the fatigue from your body, as soon as you take ACV you will feel refreshed and energetic within 2 hours thats because it detoxify your body. if you check your urine after taking ACV you will find it more clear, if you don't want to have a closer look at that you can use litmus paper or pH test paper, take a urine sample before taking ACV and do a pH test, then repeat the same test 2 hours after taking ACV. the test paper will show acidic with the first sample, but with second sample the test paper will be more alkaline, which proves how quickly ACV cleans your body.
It helps with diabetes, arthritis, toothache, nasal congestion, sore throat etc, it also helps to maintain your blood pressure and cholesterol level.
for weight lose, take a glass of water add 2 tbsp ACV and drink it 3 times a day (before breakfast, lunch and dinner) start with 1 tbsp ACV as its quite acidic and its not suitable for everyone. you can add honey or black strap molasses to sweeten it.
the easiest way is to mix equal amount of apple cider vinegar with organic honey (1:1 ratio) and store it in a glass jar, add 2 tbsp of this mixture in a glass of water and drink it 3 times a day. this mixture is called HONEYGAR.
its too good for your beauty as well, mix 1 part ACV with 10 parts water and rinse your hair with it after shampoo. it makes your hair soft and shiny, give it a try.
mix 1 part ACV with 2 parts water and apply it on your face with a cotton wool in the morning and before going to bed, your skin will be clear, acne free and smooth.

Made Chocolate Cinnamon rolls on MIL's request, she always request me to make these rolls for her whenever she come over here as she loves the way I make it...she was so happy when she saw them on the breakfast table, Feeling blessed ?
Ingredients
1egg
1/4cup caster sugar
1cup warm milk
1tbsp instant yeast
1tsp salt
2tsp vanilla
2.5 to 3.5 cups flour (use good brand please) 
60gm butter unsalted,softened
Knead all the ingredients to make smooth and pliable soft dough,it shouldn't be sticky...
Milk you may or may not use all,so don't add it all at once...
Same with flour,first add 2cups only,then if you feel you need more then add more...i used 2.5 cups flour.
Cover and let it rise to double size for about an hour or so.
For filling!
Mix 2tsp cinnamon and 2 tsp of cocoa powder with 1cup soft brown sugar.
If you not making chocolate ones,then skip the cocoa fromfilling.
Once the dough rise,punch it down...roll it in to a big rectangular shape...neither too thick nor too thin...
Better to divide the dough in 2 portions and then roll each in to rectangle separately as making a one roll will make very big size rolls...
Spread soft butter all over the rectangle rolled dough...spread the brown sugar filling evenly...don't spread it until the edges,leave one inch space...
Now start rolling it from the short side...cut it with knife in to rolls...keep the rolls in any greased baking dish, leave a bit of space between each roll as it will expand so need room...cover and let the rolls rise again until double in size for abt half an hour...
Bake in medium preheated oven for 15 min or 20..it depends on ur oven until done...
Frost it immediately while warm with creamcheese icing and chocolate sauce...
Cream cheese icing:
1/4cup butter softened
1.5cup icing sugar
4oz creamcheese
1tsp vanilla
2tbsp maple syrup
1 to 2 tbsp milk
Blend these all together until smooth and spreadable consistency...
Please note half the icing recipe as it makes a lot!

For Chocolate Fudge sauce
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder(use dark cocoa powder for dark color if u want)
1 cup milk or cream
1/2 cup butter
2 teaspoons vanilla essence
1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
In a saucepan, combine sugar, cocoa and milk or cream, stirring with a whisk until completely combined and smooth.
Turn heat on stove to medium and stirring occasionally, bring to a boil.
Stir in butter and continue to boil until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and salt. Store in container in the refrigerator.Sauce will thicken more once cooled. To reheat, microwave for 30 seconds at a time until warm.
keeps for 2 weeks refrigerated

I simply love this recipe of chicken pie.
 I use puff pastry for chicken pie though some people use shorcrust pastry for this but i am not a big fan of shortcrust.
ingredients
puff pastry (i used 12 puff pastry squares you can use more or less according to ur baking dish size)
for filling:
4 to 5 pieces of fresh whole chicken,boiled n then roughly cut in to bite size pieces. discard the bones after boiling (you can also use boneless chicken breast)
fresh mushrooms 7 to 8 sliced
corns 1 1/2 tablespoon
spring onions chopped 2 tablespoon
corriander or parsley leaves 1 tablespoon chopped
butter 1 to 2 tablespoon
1 medium onion chopped
2 cloves garlic crushed
salt to taste
flour 1 to 2 tablespoon
milk 3/4 cup or may be more or less....depends on ur sauce consistency
cream 2 to 3 tbsp
salt to taste
1 egg mixed with lil water for egg wash glaze

Heat butter in a pan, add onions n garlic. fry until onions become translucent. add mushrooms,chicken,corns. stir fry on medium to high heat until mushrooms becomes little soft and changes it's colour, about 3 to 4 minute. then add springs onions ,fry 1 more minute. add flour and mix well. now add milk and cream and stir continously until you get nice creamy saucy filling. if you find your sauce too thick you can add little more milk or if you find it too thin then you can always add little more flour to make it according to your desired consistency. add parsley and salt to taste. mix well and cook for 1 minute. then remove from the stove and let it cool slightly.
preheat your oven to 180 degree.very lightly grease your baking pan.arrange puff pastry squares on it...i used 6 squares for the bottom layer and 6 for the top layer. means total 12 squares i used. spread chicken filling on it then cover the top with more puff pastry squares. slightly seal the edges by pressing with a fork. then apply egg wash on it. bake for abt 30 to 35 minutes. don't take it out once you see the top goldn brown because the bottom layer of puff pastry takes a little longer  to cook. so if you find your top layer start getting extra brown. cover it loosely with a foil and continue baking. try using any glass baking dish so that you can easily see the bottom layer while baking if it's cooked or not. once done, take out from the oven n let it cool slightly for about 5 minutes. then dig in your forks and enjoy.
