Decided to use Palak (Spinach) in my recipes more frequently as it has very high nutritional value.Personally,I can't tolerate Palak Paneer (though Paneer is my favourite) and Palak in any other form of recipes my mom used to prepare usually.So,there is a lot to explore and experiment in this area :).
Ingredients:
1.Fenugreek (methi), Spinach (Palak Leaves) - Cleaned and Washed and finely chopped
2.Tomato,Carrot, Capsicum - Finely Chopped
3.Onion - Finely Sliced
4.Vinegar and Soya sauce - As per taste
5. Macroni - Soak in normal water
6. Dry Mango Powder (Aamchoor), salt to taste,Coriander Powder,mustard seeds,garam masala, haldi,cumin seeds - All as per individual's taste and approximation.
7.Refined oil
8.Water - to cook the vegetables fast till soften
9. Fresh Coriander leaves for garnish
Procedure
1.Add Refined oil to the pan and add mustard seeds,cumin seeds and fry sliced onions till they get slightly transparent.
2.Add other vegetables with salt and vinegar and little water and cook all the vegetables well on low flame.
3.Add the remaining dry masalas with soya sauce and cook for few minutes and make sure it is not completely dried nor much watery.
4.The Macroni kept in water would have swoolen till now so just boil it a little more for few minutes and once it is soft enough for eating (make sure it doesn't get so soft due to boiling that it gets crushed to paste),
5.Drain the water and add the macroni to the pan and mix well.
6.Cook for few more minutes and server hot with coriander garnish.
Here it is...
Welcome to my Cooking Blog
I love experimenting..with food..personal looks...home decoration n all..and fortunately they work most of the time..I used to make only cakes in microwave when I was small...by reading recipes in magazines (net was not available at that time)..rest of cooking was always my mom's domain..but as the pressure of studies grew..I left cooking completely for some 6-8 years.I still remember..my roomie in Belleville,Canada taught me how to make simple Daal :).I had forgotton all...along with the confidence...
But after wedding..now I have my own kitchen...a very demanding husband when it comes to variety of food and keeping taste buds happy..a lovable brother-in-law who loves good food though doesn't demand much (probably shy!! )and being a responsible lady of the house..I am very cautious about nutrient value of food and hygiene along with calorie content (I am quite plumpy already :) ).
So,this blog is just a record of my experiments with the recipes I read on other food blogs or the standard recipes learnt from mom n friends...
As these all are experiments,so definite quantity of ingredients is not specified.Most are approximations as per my taste :).
