Alka Keswani — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 06:41:28 +0000

Seyal Phulka Spring announced its arrival, winter bid adieu, and summer is almost knocking at the doors. Holi(Indian Festival of colours ) is just few days away, and I am as usual grumpy and lethargic. No changes in SEASON of my MOOD. The diet regime seems to be improper, leaving me dull and tired whole day. I need to breakup my meals into more sensible way and include some more antioxidants and proteins too. Of late we had been socializing more, that ends up in many unwanted calories in the body and the fight to get rid of those extra calories is proving to be strenuous. On the whole, I am literally dragging myself to the daily grind, day after day. I am still researching (Highly dependent on Google for that) on consumption of protein shakes before work outs in Gym.Till now, I haven’t reached to any conclusion since there seems to be a lot of difference of opinion amongst people. Do you have any first hand information on that? Do share that with me please. I do not want lethargy to be an excuse for not working out 😉 Coming to Recipe of the day, it has nothing to do with diet food or wonder milkshakes. Instead it has got something to do with leftovers..yeah, leftover rotis/phulkas. Watch Recipe video here: This is one very popular way of cooking with some leftover rotis , turning those into tangy, spicy morsels . And its so simple to cook, with just few basic ingredients.

A Healthier Mooli Paratha~Muriyah Waaro Phulko

Alka Keswani — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 01:05:24 +0000

Firstly Let me Thank , all of those wonderful people who shared the tips on how to keep a kid occupied at home during Holidays. I am surely trying to follow all the suggestions given by you. I am not comfortable with Summer Camps and practically speaking there aren’t any good options available around our place. So for now, the mornings are spend watching some cartoons on T.V, afternoons in practising some Keyboard (Piano) lessons . Thanks to dear hubby who got this wonderful book ,where the notes are explained in such a simple way, that now our son is able to READ and practice on his own . Of course Hubby dear had llabelledall the keys on keyboard for quick identification . And Sk ,Thanks a lot for this wonderful gift (A keyboard) ! Some cycling in evenings, to the nneighbouringpark, ensure that he is getting that necessary physical movement (and walking besides him makes sure that I too, am exercising) Some Indoor games, and some computer lessons keep him occupied till night..Then he has some frequent visits to his grandparents too. so until he get bored of this schedule, I am enjoying his vacations 😉 Coming to Today’s recipe, its nothing but the regular Mooli paratha, with some added health quotient in the form of grated carrots. Since the Red juicy carrots had bid adieu , the orange ones are not accepted in salads by my kid. Well, to share a truth, I too am not fond of those orange coloured carrots, but since some β-carotene is necessary in regular diet, I find it easier to use these orange carrots in Pulav, Noodles, and in Parathas , than munching tasteless bits of these in salads.

Later squeeze the grated radish and carrot properly so as to squeeze out all the water (You can use this water to knead the dough, in that case, add little or no salt in dough as the water already has salt) Add chopped saayi thoom (Or else you can also use 2-3 cloves of dried garlic), coriander leaves and chopped green chillies , cumin seeds, crushed pomegranate seeds and a little of salt, and mix properly Knead a soft dough,by mixing wheat flour, salt, red chilly powder/Black pepper powder and some water Roll out a small portion of the dough and place some amount of the stuffing in center Wrap it, so as to form a stuffed ball again and carefully roll it into thick chapati (It could be too cumbersome, as radish mixture tend to come out of chapati and stick to rolling pin, so dust some dry wheat flour on rolling board and rolling pin too) Place it on a hot griddle and cook it on medium flame , tossing it regularly and greasing it with little oil at intervals Serve it hot with curd or boondi raita, papad or achaar, or Dahi wada 2.2.1 Enjoy The Tasty and Healthy Bites…..

Dal Moong is a typical Sindhi Breakfast item, and is more famous as a Morning Street Food. Well, this means that generally Dal moong , along with Dal pakwan, Makhni Dal , sold at Thelas or as street food in morning , are preferred by Sindhis . A very simple to make, Dalmoong is a wonderful combination of Yellow split beans (Moong ki peeli dal) , and Green Grams (sabut Moong), cooked till mushy and topped with some spices and vegetables like boiled potato, beetroot, raw mango etc, with some tangy tamarind chutney is relished with some Koki or even Phulka Though the moong available at such thelas have a very distinct(Read….Better) taste, but still home made food is always healthier isn’t it? Moong and dal are cooked separately and then while serving , take moong in a bowl, and pour few spoons of dal over it ,on half of the side, and garnish it. The recipe of moong varies , some make these with onion and ginger garlic, other prefer just ginger garlic base, while some use just dry masalas to flavor the otherwise bland green grams Print Dal Moong ~A healthy Breakfast Prep time: 10 mins Cook time: 30 mins Total time: 40 mins Serves: 3 Nutritious Moong beans and yellow Dal topped with boiled vegetables Ingredients Sabut Moong 1 cup Green chillies 2 Salt Kamaal Patt (Tej Patta) 1 Turmeric powder ¼ tsp Garam masala powder 1 tsp Red chilly powder ½ tsp Coriander powder 1 tsp Ginger garlic paste(optional) 1 tsp Amchoor powder 1 tsp Oil 1+1 tsp(1 tsp for moong, and one for tempering ) For Garnish Boiled, peeled and chopped Potato 1 Boiled, peeled and chopped Beetroot 1 Finely chopped onion, raw mango, Tomato 1 each Coriander leaves Tamarind chutney and Green chutney(Coriander and mint chutney), either or both 1 tsp per serving Method Pick, rinse several times and then soak moong for few hours In a pressure cooker, take 1 tsp of oil and add tejpatta, after a minute add ginger garlic paste(optional) and saute till the rawness of Ginger garlic paste is gone . I skipped this step 🙂 Add the soaked moong, salt and turmeric powder,chopped green chilllies and add water (should cover moong properly) If you have soaked moong for few hours, add less water or if you are cooking moong without soaking, add water tad more than double the quantity of moong Close the lid of cooker and wait till 2- 6 (depending upon the quality of moong and time of soaking) whistles Put off the burner and let the pressure in cooker subside Whisk the moong with wooden whisker (Mandiyaro ) Now take one tsp of oil, and add coriander powder, red chilly powder , garam masala powder and let it sizzle for 2-3 seconds Add this tempering to the boiled moong, and add amchoor powder, mix properly and add some water if required Let it simmer for few minutes and adjust the seasoning if required Makhni Dal Recipe is givenhere For serving, take a bowl, add few spoons of moong, top it with some Dal , garnish it with chopped veggies and tamarind (and/or) green chutney and finally some chopped coriander leaves.
