Amla and Moong Dal – Tikkis/cutlets/burger patties

About:
This veggie burger is a great easy lunch to make. I’ll sometimes make a big batch and refrigerate or freeze some of the patties to have for easily accessible, healthy lunches during the week.
Aside from being absolutely delicious, they’re also incredibly healthy. yellow lentils are naturally full of fiber and iron and adding Amla/Indian gooseberry makes it rich in vitamin C so this is a diabetic friendly a both of which I often don’t get enough of in my day-to-day diet, along with a healthy dose of lean protein.
Yields – 10 to 12
Preparation time-15-20 minutes (includes cooking time of moong dal)

Badam Vermicelli Payasa/Kheer/Pudding

About:
This Payasa/Kheer/Pudding recipe is made with brown noodles, cardamom, ground almond/almond meal giving it the most delicious, aromatic flavor!. It can be easily converted to Vegan by replacing Milk with Almond Milk.
With almond adding creaminess and toasted nuts gracing the top, this pudding is an almond-lovers dream. Prefer this pudding served warm, as I find the pudding to be firmer than normal when chilled. If you do chill it and heat it up, add a splash of milk to the pudding and cover the bowl with plastic wrap before heating. This will add moisture back in and make the pudding as creamy as it was when it was first made.
Serves – 2-3
Preparation time -10 minutes
Cooking time -15 minutes
