Roasted brown lentils capsicum bulgur
About:
This rice recipe is very simple prepared in a way similar to south indian flavoured rice dishes. Simple yet flavourful and healthy, roasted brown lentils, spices and curry leaves provides a delightful and palatable experience to the taste buds. I used bulgur rice in this recipe.
Health Benefits:
Roasted lentil powder provides valuable nutrients for both conventional and vegetarian nutrition. Lentils contain high quality plant protein. When combined with a grain source protein in lentils and grain complements each other to reach a more complete protein with higher bioavailability. Adding roasted lentil flour compensates for lysine deficiency in other grains and improves overall protein quality.
The fiber portion in roasted lentil flour leads to a low glycemic response and better glucose management.
This rice can be enjoyed as a meal and I served this dish with eggplant and onion gravy.(link). It can also be served with Raita dips (link)
Serves: 2-3
