Ridge gourd lentil dal
About:
This dish is warming, comforting, and nutritious, and I could probably eat it every day. This version is simple and easy (which is common in Indian cooking and adds a tremendous amount of flavor and depth to the dish) here I flavoured the dal just with garlic. Strangely enough, once you add the lentils to the pot, the key is not stirring them until the end; if you leave the lentils alone they’ll develop a wonderful creaminess as they becomes tender and begin to break down.
Health Benefits:
Replacing one or more meals per week with vegetarian options such as beans and lentils can improve your health. Beans and lentils offer protein, vitamins, minerals and fiber with no added fat or cholesterol. Beans and lentils also count toward your daily vegetable servings to support good health.

Savoury snack/Granola – Red Thin Flatten Rice/Poha and Oats
About:
There is so much to love about this Savoury Granola. With crunchiness of flattened rice and the nutty taste from peanuts and roasted split peas with bits of coconut makes it so hearty and delightful.
This savoury granola will disappear very quickly. It is so aromatic when its oozing out its flavours while roasting.
During this cold weather you can enjoy with a bowl of this snack and your favourite hot drink. This also makes perfect for On the Go snack.
