Lentils/Dals Spinach Dhokla


Dhokla2

About:

Authentic version of Dhokla uses rice and bengal gram or urad dal which are soaked overnight, ground to a batter, spiced up with ginger. Here I tried healthy version with lentils – Green Moong Dal, yellow moong dal and Red lentils.

Health benefits:

Green gram dal and moong dal are both derived from the mature mung bean. High in fiber as well as other nutrients, green gram dal is a low-fat source of protein.

Pav sweet potato bhaji – Bun Pizza


Bun Pav6 About: Pizza and Pav bhaji both are my favourite and so in this recipe just to fulfil my craving I topped pav bhaji with cheese and baked. sorry no pizza base here,  I was very lazy to knead the dough and make the base this time so tried it on the whole meal bun/pav to make my job easier. A perfect accompaniment with a cup of coffee. This can be served as evening snack/for light dinner and or breakfast.
