Khyati's Health-O-Meter Says:

This Bengali dish is made of mixed vegetables. Best low-calorie recipe with a lot of nutritional benefits as it contains vegetables rich in vitamins & minerals. Poppy seed's addition makes this recipe rich not only in taste but also it is a good source of minerals like calcium & zinc.

INGREDIENTS:
  • Vegetables [Bitter gourd, White radish, Ridge gourd, Sweet potatoes, Broad beans, Drumsticks and brinjal] [cut into 1 inch pieces each]  - 100 g [I cup] 
  • Oil - ½ tsp
  • Poppy seeds [khuskhus/posto] - 1 tsp
  • Mustard seeds - ½ tsp
  • Ginger -  ½ inch piece
  • Panch phoran [jeera, mustard seed, methi seed, saunf, kalonji] - 1 tsp
  • Bay leaf - ½ no.
  • Salt - As per taste
  • Water - as required
DIRECTIONS:
Step 1 Wash and cut the bitter gourd into thin roundels.  Step 2 Heat ¼ tsp. oil in a pan and stir fry bitter gourd slices lightly. Keep aside. Make a thick paste of poppy seeds, mustard seeds, and ginger. Step 3 Heat the remaining oil in a kadhai. Add panch phoran and bay leaf. When the seeds start to crackle, add the chopped vegetables and stir lightly. Step 4 Add the ground spices and stir for five to seven minutes. Add a ½ cup of water and cover. Cook on medium heat stirring occasionally till vegetables are almost cooked. Step 5 Add the bitter gourd and salt. Cook for another two minutes till gravy is not too thick or too dry.

Detox Juice
Beetroots are an excellent source of folic acid and a very good source of fiber. High-fibre root veggies and fruit keep things moving through the digestive tract, while ginger calms your stomach. The high level of beta-carotene acts as an antioxidant to cell damage done to the body through regular metabolism. It helps to slow down the ageing of cells.

Protein Punch

A colourful, refreshing and healthy salad which mainly includes legumes rich in proteins, bulgur rich in fibre and vegetables dense with antioxidants which are good for the eyes and a glowing complexion. This dish is wonderfully combined with parsley and lemon dressing tossed with the tiny amount of extra virgin olive oil which is very abundant in omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids. This is a wonderful dish for weight watchers as it makes a perfect alternative for any oily snack

Makhane Ki Phirni
Phirni is an Indian rice pudding very commonly made on auspicious occasions. Here is a healthy twist to a phirni by making it with makhana.
