Quinoa Idli#AlphabetChallenge

Quinoa idli is a healthy variation for breakfast or even as a meal. This quinoa idli is very soft, you can try this as an alternate for the usual white idlis atleast once in a while.You can serve this idli with chutney, sambar or podi. These idlis taste really good and it's a great way to add protein in your diet. 

What I like about these Quinoa Idlis that ..
They are protein packed.
They are more wholesome than plain rice idlis.
They make a filling breakfast or lunch.
They are vegan and gluten-free.
They are easy to make with few ingredients.
Ingredients
¾ Cup Quinoa
1/3 Cup Idli Rice
1/3 Cup Urad Dal
1 Teaspoon Fenugreek seeds
1/3 Cup Heaped Poha
1 Teaspoon Sea Salt or to taste
Method

Wash and soak urad dal well and soak it along with the fenugreek seeds together for 4 hours, drain the water and but do not throw the water. This water will be used to grind the dal and the rice quinoa.
Wash the rice and quinoa very well and soak them together for at least 4 hours.
Before you start to grind wash and soak the Poha.

Just before grinding the dal and fenugreek seeds drain all the water and keep aside. Grind this to a smooth past using the water which we soaked the urad dal, use a little water as possible. Remove this on to large pot/vessel.
Now drain and grind the quinoa and rice, add little water as possible to grind this since (quinoa leaves water, so while grinding so add water carefully). Sprinkle water as and when it sticks to the sides, do not add to much water at a time.

Transfer the batters to the pot along with ground dal. Add salt to it. Mix well with hands to make it fluffy.
Close with lid and set aside for 8 hours or overnight for fermenting. 

Grease your idli plates with oil, take a laddle full of the batter and pour into the mould.
Steam cook for 12 to 15 minutess or until a knife or toothpick inserted inserted into the idlis comes out clean . Remove the idli plates, let it cool a little .

Dip a knife in water and run it on the sides and then the bottom, remove the idlis.

Serve hot with chutney and sambar.

Montenegrin Brav u Mlijeku/Lamb In Milk#EatThe World

Montenegrin lamb in milk is a wonderful and traditional one pot meal dish. It is easy to make and the meat comes out perfectly tender. I have enjoyed this dish when I visited the Balkan countries. The meat & veggies are cooked in milk and that gives this dish a unique taste. I really love the flavor of the fennel in this dish.

Recipe adapted from here
Serves 3 as a complete meal
Ingredients
4 Cloves Garlic - minced
½ Cup Finely Chopped Flat Leaf Parsley - see notes
1 Teaspoon Fennel Seeds/Saunf
2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
500 Grams Lamb/Mutton - cut into bite size pieces
1 Cube Veg Seasoning
½ Teaspoon Salt or to taste
1 Teaspoon Whole Black Peppercorns
2 Small Whole Potatoes -
1 Large Carrot - cut into large pieces
1½ Cups Milk
2 Rosemary Sprigs
Method

Using a mortar and pestle place the garlic, flat leaf parsley, half of the black pepper corns and fennel seeds, crush to form a coarse paste.
In a Dutch oven, heat the olive oil and add in the garlic paste, remaining whole peppercorns cook until fragrant a minute.
Raise the heat and add in the lamb pieces, and brown the meat all over. Remove the lamb and season with salt and pepper.
Add about ½ cup of the milk to the pot and scrape up any browned bits, deglazing the pot for about 2 minutes.

Add the remaining milk, rosemary, seared lamb and its juices as well as the seasoning cube and vegetables. Bring to a simmer and then cover and cook until tender about an hour and more or until the meat is tender.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the lamb and veggies to a bowl and discard the rosemary sprigs.

Boil the milk over high heat until reduced by half.
Puree the milk sauce in the pot with an immersion blender or in a regular blender. Put the sauce back in the pot and add the lamb  and veggies back in, simmer until everything is warm.
Season with salt and pepper and garnish with parsley or coriander leaves.

Serve warm with some bread or steamed rice for a delicious Montenegrin meal. This was so delicious, do try this recipe
My Notes
Did not have Flat Leaf Parsley so substituted coriander leaves in this dish. I have added whole peppercorns to give this dish a fresh pepper taste.

Sukhi Roti Ki Khichdi#SundayFunday

Sukhi Roti Ki Khichdi is a healthy, tasty meal delicious way to use leftover roti/phulka's. Suhki mean dry, here the phulkas are dried wrapped in a cloth and kept in a basket to dry , till they are crisp.

I have kept them for nearly 6 - 7 days. These do not spoil or mildew since they are kept open. You place the basket on fridge top or on the dinning table. This is a healthy meal of Rajasthani/Jodhpur's cuisine, even veggies like cauliflower, cabbage, potato, peas are added along with rice and roti. 

This is quick and easy to prepare using fewer easily available ingredients. This has a nice flavor of whole spices like bay leaf, cloves, black cardamom. You can serve this as a lunch and dinner to your family. It is a one-pot meal you can have with curd or as it is. Everyone will love this one pot meal.

½ Cup Basmati Rice
1 Medium Potato - diced
½ Cup Cauliflower Florets
1 Green Chilly - chopped - optional

Juice Of One Lime
4 Tablespoons Oil
Whole Spices
2 Bay Leaves
1 Black Cardamom
4 Cloves
4 Black Peppercorns
1 Small Piece Cinnamon
