“My Healthy Veg. Thali~ 343 : When its lunchtime everything else takes a back seat …in my thali ... Karate’ Podi (Karela/ Bitter Gourd Fries), Kirlailele Mooga Kismuri (Sprouted Green Gram Dry Masala Curry), Bhenda Upkari (Lady’s Finger Stir Fry/ Bhaji), Tomato Saaru/ Saar, Surai SheetHa (Steamed Rice)” … a lovely meal indeed to relish at home with family and friends … Yummilicious …
** I have shared in this space how monsoon and winter bring out my backache and neck issues and NO I am not at all writing it for sympathy, no ways, if anything, I am trying to reach out to those in my condition to help them cheer up. Trust me, those who go through the woes will understand what I write and will agree too, but then that’s life, if by my writing and if by your reading a little bit of tension is eased, then why not??
** With Monsoon almost reaching its end, things are sorted a bit, atleast for another two months or so till winter, things are going to be hopefully good. This time monsoon was bad, it still rains in the evenings, and the weather is unpredictable through daytime, which really plays havoc for all and for us with back and neck issues, its worst. Anyways, took a good break for almost a year now and hopefully will be blogging more often.
** Coming to bhendi/ okra/ lady’s finger bhaji which you often find in my thali, I must confess that I have begun having it more often as my Doctor has advised me to eat more alkaline foods. So until I find more options, its Bhendi for now as it is easy to cook and my favorite too. Off course Ayurveda suggests to have it in limits, hence my desire to have it as side dish on daily basis gets curtailed. Well, to all of you who have no issues do include them.
** Coming to kismuri ie a dry masala side dish from Konkani Saraswat Cuisine is loved very much in my home and I often prepare it in different combinations. Here is another one with sprouted moong which tastes fantastic served as side dish with rice, though it’s wonderful with roti too. Sharing links to recipes of the items in my thali shared above as is my usual practice, do try them out and enjoy with family and friends, they are all very tasty.
