About:

Soya bean methi pulao is healthy, nutritious, simple tasty recipe. This brown rice is a rich source of protein and fiber.

Health Benefits:

Methi OR Fenugreek leaves: They are hardly known when we consider it as a herb instead of a spice. It is basically a kind of green leafy vegetables unless you dry them for storage (kasuri methi). So they will give you all the goodness associated with green vegetables. The fresh leaves of the Methi plant have a slightly bitter under taste and can be cooked just like we cook spinach. It is a very good source of iron; it helps to control the hormonal level of insulin in the blood.

Soybean: It is hailed as the most protective bean. Soy contains 40 percent protein. It has the highest protein content amongst plant products. “Soy protein” refers to the protein found in soybeans. As animal protein contains all the essential amino acids, lacking in pulse protein, soy is often used to replace the animal proteins in an individual’s diet. Soybean is the only vegetable food that contains all eight essential amino acids.

Mango-chocolate fudge


Choclate mango fudge new

 

About:

A fudge is a rich candy made with sugar, milk, butter and flavoring. In this recipe I have made two layers by giving a touch of indo-western as the mango layer is made from mango pulp and it’s the most common seasonal fruit in india and chocolate is from western confectionery. I haven’t used any butter and sugar here instead used low fat condensed milk which makes the treat rich.

Flavorful mango fudge layer is coated with bittersweet chocolate layer; topped with melted chocolate. It is simple and delicious recipe.
