VARI TANDULACHI UPMA, CHAMA ARI UPMA, SANWA UPMA, UPWAS KA UPMA

Upma is normally made with suji (semolina) or lapsi or rice rava.  It can be made plain or with some vegetables but for upwas, these items are not used by some people.  Most of the  people use Vari Tandul, Chama arisi, sama chaval, sanva it is known as.  Since just plain upma will not be much tastier, i have used ratalu along with it.  Let us see the recipe now.

POTLI PUFF AND MINI PUFF

Potli puff is made with Wheat flour and vegetables and baked it.  You can also deep fry them but immediately you have to serve as it tend to become soggy.  If it is made in maida, it will be crispy like samosas but I do not want to use maida  and fried item, hence  I baked.  The end product was really nice.

VEGETABLE BIRYANI

VEGETABLE BIRYANI can be made very easily if you have got vegetables like carrots, beans,green watana, onion,  cabbage etc.  It is an easy way to  make the children all the vegetables.

DAL MAKHANI

Dal makhani is a staple food originating from the Punjab region of the Indian subcontinent. The dish differs from other popular Punjabi dal dishes, such as dal tadka.  In  that the primary ingredients in dal makhani are whole black lentil (urad) and red kidney beans(rajma), rather than red lentil (masoor).  

Whole urad like other whole lentils and pulses are good source of protein and dietary fibre.
" They are low in fat and rich in B complex vitamins, calcium and potassium
