Bisibela bath with Broken Wheat

Friday, January 23, 2009

This is a healthy and tasty dish and tastes as good as the one which we make with rice and also good for health to consume wheat more than rice especially for diabetic people. I made this last night and liked it very much and brought the same for today’s lunch too. Easy alternative for chapattis at nights. It is always a healthy idea not to eat rice at nights so we can make dishes with broken wheat or pasta as alternatives instead of spending lot of time for making rotis/chapathis.

Ingredients

1 cup broken wheat
1/2 cup Red gram dal (Tur dal)
Vegetables - Beans, Peas and Carrot - chopped
Tamarind- a small lemon size
1 teaspoon Mustard seeds
1 teaspoon Urud Dal (Black gram dal)
Curry leaves (optional)
1/2 teaspoon Turmeric powder
pinch of asafoetida
Salt to taste
1 tbsp Oil

1 1/2 Tablespoon Bisibela bath mix powder

Or make Bisibela bath mix (paste) with the below ingredients

1 teaspoon Bengalgram dal
1 teaspoon Urud Dal (Blackgram dal)
1/2 teaspoon Coriander seeds
2 whole Red chillis
small piece of Cinnamon
2 Cloves
2 Cardamom
3 teaspoons grated Coconut

Method

1) Clean Dal and pressure cook with broken wheat in 3 to 4 cups of water. It is a good practice to soak Dal for 15 mins to 30mins in water before cooking so that Dal cooks soon and soft.

2) Extract the juice from tamarind and keep aside. Heat tamarind with water in microwave for a min and extract juice immediately instead of waiting for tamarind to soak in water

3) Heat Oil, splutter mustard seeds, add urud dal and once it turns brown add curry leaves, turmeric powder and asafetida and fry for few secs

4) Add chopped veggies fry for couple of mins and then add Bisibela bath mix (readymade or homemade paste) and 1 cup of water and cook until vegetables are cooked. Now add tamarind juice, cooked wheat/Dal, salt. Mix and cook in medium-low heat for another 5 mins.

Garnish with coriander leaves and ghee and serve hot.

Vegetable Sandwich

Thursday, January 22, 2009

Vegetable sandwich for today's lunch. Very quick and easy to make. I like the sandwich maker i bought recently which really makes a crispy sandwiches without using any oil. If you are going to eat fresh then you can use spicy coriander chutney as a spread or if you want to pack for a lunch then you can avoid this to maintain the crispy texture.

I am sure even without using the sandwich maker this tastes good as it is.

I used sliced cucumber, black olives, sliced yellow bell peppers and sliced beetroot to fill in the sandwich. Also used coriander chutney as a spread last night for eating fresh and did not use the same to bring for lunch. Also white bread tastes great for this sandwich but you can use wheat bread which is more healthy. I used white :-)
Ingredients to make 2 sandwiches

Your choice of chopped vegetables
4 bread slices
coriander chutney
chat masala
salt and pepper

Method

Spread coriander chutney to 2 slices and arrange veggies on the other 2 slices by spreading salt, pepper and chat masala. sandwich the slices and eat as it is or use sandwich maker until they turn brown and crispy

Chickpeas Soup

Chickpeas soup is another tasty and healthy soup i made last night

Ingredients


1/2 cup chickpeas(soaked overnight and pressure cooked)
1 green chilli
small piece of ginger (1 teaspoon grated)
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
salt and pepper to taste

Method

1) Heat oil and throw in cumin powder and rest of the ingredients, fry for a min.

2) Cool and grind to a paste with some water. Strain the liquid to the same pan with a strainer and add more water if required and bring to boil. Add salt and pepper to taste.

server hot with croutons of your choice

Notes

Make sure the green chilli is very small and do not add more than one. We can add pepper to adjust the taste but if chilli is more we cannot do anything except throwing the soup. Even without chilli it will taste good. So think about your spice level and decide whether to add chilli or not

With ground nut podi (Verusenaga podi)

Ingredients

3 cups chopped beans (Top, tail and remove the strings from both the sides)
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds
pinch of asafoetida
pinch of turmeric powder
1 teaspoon oil
curry leaves (optional)
salt to taste

For podi (Powder)
1/4 cup dry roasted ground nuts (pea nuts)
1 tsp Chilli powder
1 tsp coriander powder
3 to 4 cloves of garlic
Method

1) Make a powder of the powder ingredients. Make sure the powder is not too smooth

3) Heat oil in a pan, splutter mustard seeds, add asafoetida, turmeric powder, curry leaves, cooked beans and salt.

4) Now add the groundnut powder and stir fry for couple of minutes until the beans are covered with powder.

with fresh grated coconut

1 Tablespoons of grated coconut
1 teaspoon urud dal

Method

1) Pressure cook chopped beans without water for one whistle and keep in SIM for another 5 mins.

Broccoli fry (Curry)

Some facts about Broccoli are it is high in vitamin C, vitamin K and soluble fiber and contains multiple nutrients with potent anti-cancer properties including diindolylmethane and selenium. Broccoli is usually boiled or steamed, but may be eaten raw. The benefits of broccoli are greatly reduced if the vegetable is boiled more than ten minutes.

I started liking this when I had first time in one of my client's home in UK, they just steamed with little bit of salt. it was crunchy and not cooked too much. From that day I started buying Broccoli and made many variations in Indian style. If you want to reduce weight this is a great vegetable to eat because it contains very less calories.
Method

Fry it for less than 10mins with littie bit of oil and salt. Add some drops of water if required in middle so that it will not burn. If you like it spicy just add some chilli powder.

Notes

1) You can garnish with grated coconut at the end

2) You can also use pressure cooker to steam them but make sure they are half cooked then only they taste good. I have tried cooking completely but it did not taste good

Bitter Gourd Pulusu(Gravy with ground spices)

Friday, January 9, 2009

Here is another way i made Bitter Guard last night. I was reading in the net about the uses of bitter guard and decided I should start eating once in a week. I usually make dry curry or stuffed curry with bitter guard but yesterday i want some what gravy to eat with Sangati and made this. I felt the bitterness was very much tolerable. I did not add jaggery which would have reduced the bitterness further. Usually I cook food which takes less time and easy to make. I think just cutting vegetables is the main time taking process here. Here is the recipe

Go through this for Bitter Gourd or Bitter Melon Medicinal uses

Ingredients

2 cups of bitter Melon sliced
1 cup onions sliced
2 cups of tomatoes sliced
1/4th cup Tamarind paste
1 " piece ginger
3 to 4 cloves of garlic
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
salt to taste

spices

3 to 4 whole red chillies
1 tsp coriander seeds
1 tsp cumin seeds
4 to 5 cloves
1 " cinnamon stick
pinch of asafoetida
Method

1) Cook sliced bitter guard with 1/2 tsp turmeric powder in 2 cups of water until they are somewhat cooked and soft but need not cook completely. I just cooked in microwave for 8 mins

2) Heat 1tsp oil in a pan, splutter cumin seeds and add all the remaining spices and fry for 30 seconds and then add onions and fry for 4 to5 mins until they turn light brown. Add tomatoes, ginger and garlic and cook for 3 to 4 mins and cool it and grind to a smooth paste

3) Now mix the ground paste and cooked bitterguard, tamarind paste and salt and cook until the bitter guard is completly cooked.

this goes well with Hot rice or sangati.

We (me and my sister) really enjoyed this with sangati and even my husband had nicely with white rice and he suggested me to make "Bitter guard pitlai" which I am going to try in next 2 days and post the recipe :-)

Notes:

Add jaggery to reduce the bitterness further

Yellow Fried Rice with peas

I was in hurry today but need to make something for lunch very quick and made this very simple rice with peas and great blend of spices. It is very very easy to make, delicious & packed with flavors.

Dondakaya Curry

Thursday, January 8, 2009

I searched in Internet to know what this vegetable is called in english and below is the info on how it is called in various Languages

Gherkins, Ivy Gourd, Gentleman’s Toes (English)
Dondakaya(Telugu)
Kovaikai (Tamil)
Tindora/Kundru/Tondli (Hindi / North India)

Dondakaya is abundantly available in india, it grows very fast. Just having one plant will give you 1 to 2 Kgs per week. We use to have just 1 plant at our home and use to give others in our village too. We can use these vegetables in sambar too. Today's recipe is for dry curry. I usually make most of the dry curries by adding the powder made with peanuts and spices. We can make this powder and store for couple of weeks in air tight box and can use for various curries like Dondakaya, Beans, bitter guard, ridge gourd etc.

Here is the recipe

Ingredients
1 pound Kundru washed and sliced according to your choice
1/2 cup onions sliced
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
pinch of asafoetida (optional)
curry leaves (optional)
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
salt to taste
For podi (Powder)
1/2 cup dry roasted ground nuts (pea nuts)
1 tsp Chilli powder
1 tsp coriander powder
3 to 4 cloves of garlic
Method
1) Make a powder of the powder ingredients. Make sure the powder is not too smooth.

2) Heat Oil in a pan, splutter mustard seeds, add cumin seeds, asafoetida, turmeric powder and fry for few seconds. Add onions and fry for 3 to 4 mins

3) Add the cut vegetables and cover and cook until they are soft. Now add the powder, salt. Fry for a couple of minutes until the vegetables are coved with powder.

Sangati (Rice cooked with Ragi(Millet) flour)

Wednesday, January 7, 2009

Sangati is usually made in villages of Andhra/Karnataka. I like it very much and it tastes good only when it is very hot and best when eaten immediately after cooking. I don't think re-heating in microwave is a good Idea so only make this just before you can eat it. This goes well with any chutneys or any vegetable gravy.

It is very nutritious and healthy. Ingredients used for making this are rice and Ragi(Millet flour) flour. The proportion of the flour and rice varies based on how you like, I usually make with 1 cup rice and 1/2 cup flour but you can even make with 1/2 cup rice and 1 cup flour, more the flour it is more healthy.

I use to make this for around 30 people who use to work in our farms and use to eat along with them. They eat with lot of interest and we feel like eating seeing them. They eat this because it makes them not to feel hungry for long time and also affordable, easy to make, healthy and tasty too. Once if i make this then I will loose interest in white rice and keep making this continuously for 4 to 5 days. But again since my husband doesn't eat this I don't like to make just for 1 person and will eventually endup eating rice.

here is the method.

Ingredients

1 cup rice
1/2 cup flour
4 cups water



Method

1) Soak rice in water for 30 mins. I usually soak rice in water for making normal rice also which gives very soft rice and I also heard that we get more qualtity when it is soaked in water.

2) Cover and cook the rice until it is cooked and not cooked too soft. Now add the flour and cover and keep in low heat for 5 mins

3) Mix the rice and flour making sure there are no lumps of flour and again cover and keep in low heat for another 5 mins.

4) Make this into round shape according to your desired size and eat with any chutney or any gravy.

For Making rounds, use any bowl and wet with water and scoop the desired quanty and rotate the bowl which makes it a round.
