Good morning to one & all,

When I send a blog to my friends and contacts, when someone sees the reels related to them, when they call me up, speak with me, write to me, I get energised more!!

Can u relate to that?

So now presenting yet again, another set of 4 S”s

Soup:  Fresh Paneer soup.

Salad: Health salad for weight watchers.

Snax:  Oatty mid-day meal.

Sweet savoury: Pearly Sabudana Kheer

Fresh Paneer Soup

Method:

1.Take the Water and Milk in a sauce pan. Simmer over low flame for 4 to 5minutes.

2. When done, fold in the grated paneer, simmer again.

3.Next fold in the homogenous paste of Corn flour or protein powder. Keep stirring all the time so that there are no lumps formed.

4.Add a blob of butter if you fancy.

5.Pour into mugs kept ready, garnish with fresh coriander/ mint leaves and super garnish with slivers of almonds as per desire and affordability.

6.Have with mixed veg cutlets and fresh mint chutney.

NOTE:

My mother taught me this soup. Found it a very novel way of eating Paneer. Just remember that the Paneer should be fresh, to give you the best taste and flavour.

I normally use All plant protein paste to give it a thickening binder, but in this case I use corn flour. The colour will change slightly with All plant protein. While with Corn flour it retains a pearly white look.

Important:

This soup is high on proteins.

Reduces hunger and cravings.

Reduces Blood pressure/ Blood sugar. Remember that Paneer should not be heated for too long, It will otherwise lose some of its nutritional contents.

The Healthy Oatty  Mid day Meal

Method:

This is again going to be a zero oil recipe, where you may add some pure ghee if u like to  get  an added and heightened flavour. I normally put it towards the culmination of the process as you will see in the attached video/ reel. So here goes the step by step recipe:

1.Take all chopped veggies. Once they are par cooked, cover with both the masala oats n the normal oats.(You may use plain oats only also)

2.Stir and fold gently and let them simmer under a cover for 2/3 minutes over a low flame. Now add some dry fruits if u fancy.

3.Pour in 250/300ml water, fold gently and simmer 5/7 min. Stirring occasionally.

4.Next add the diced tomatoes n fresh coriander, fold it all gently and let simmer for another 2/3 minutes.

Now add salt/ pepper and  red paprika to taste.

5. Lastly fold in the desi ghee . The waft  of the aromatic dish, the aroma of the desi ghee will soon pervade in the house and every one will come into the cook house—wondering what’s cooking.

Pour into a bowl, sprinkle some fresh coriander n lime juice. Give a big shout to one and all, serve the masala oats asap!!!!

It’s a very versatile dish, can be had at any time/ every time/Morning/ Noon or night.

Be it brunch or Lunch,

Be it For Breakfast or a light dinner,

A hot and savoury highly nutritious dish:

Rich on Proteins/ Antioxidants/ Full on Vitamins/ and Omega 3 in its true form!!

 A very popular breakfast at my home.

SOFT MAKHMALI SABUDANA KHEER

 ( Velvety Sagodana sweet meat)

Method:

1.Soak sabudana in half a litre of water for half an hour.

2.Then put in a heavy bottomed sauce pan and put on a low flame along with 4 to 5 split small cardamom.

3.Let it simmer with gradual stirring for 6 to 7 minutes.

4.Hold a couple of sabudana granules in between your fingers and see if soft andcan be squeezed.  This is the test to see that they are now ready for the next step.

Pour in the milk, continuing over a low flame, stir occasionally for 5 to7 minutes.

Add required quantity of sugar and continue stirring occasionally.

The sagodana porridge (sabudana kheer will gradually thicken)

Fold in the dry fruit, simmer some more.

When you think its nice, thick and creamy, transfer into a nice porcelain/ Borosil dish.

Garnish lastly with coarsely ground deseeded large cardamoms

Set aside till absolutely cool. Cover with a sheet and keep in fridge for 2 to 3 hours till it gets nice and chilled.

IMPORTANT:

What’s so important in this dish that I needed to elaborate?

The catch is:

1.I soak the sabudana for 30 to 45 min in normal water.

2.Next I cook them in same water for 5 to 7 min, till they become soft n can be squeezed on slight pressure.

3.The water seeps into the sabudana beads, they then swell up n become ready to receive the milk.

4.Now when you cook with the milk, the milk seeps into the sabudana beads, as they are now soft and ready to receive the milk.

5.Thus, the sabudana kheer becomes soft and velvety and easily melts into the mouth!!!
