Aliv seeds are also known as Watercress seeds or Gardencress seeds. Most of the younger generation are not aware of these highly nutritious seeds. These seeds are a gold mine of Iron.

Aliv Laddoos is an Indian sweet during festive season. It's a mixture of watercress seeds, jaggery, nuts and coconut. Usually, it's made with milk and ghee but I have altered the recipe to make it Vegan Friendly.
