Nuts are great ways to add a variety of nutritional profile. Healthy Oils, natural source of fats, calcium, and even fiber, there is no reason why not add them more. A wide variety of various nuts on a weekly basis, will ensure you are never to worry ‘where is my protein and calcium coming from’!

Inspired by Assamese cuisine this black sesame laddoo is lovely to eat after a meal. Black sesame is very high on calcium though it has a different taste, so you may want to try in smaller batch.

• Roll into laddoos.
