    Hello Everybody,

    First of all, I would like to sincerely thank every friends for your likes & comments which motivate me think different "What I would make for the next day (to post not the interest to have it") ha ha....

    Our today's breakfast was Healthy Dhokla. Normally Dhoklas are made only with rice flour but i added Gram flour too in it.

    DHOKLA
    Rice Flour - 1 cup
    Gram flour (coursely grinded) - 1/2 cup
    Green chilli - 3 nos.
    Ginger - 1 no.
    kadipata - 2 stalks
    Curd - 4 tspns
    salt - to taste

    for tempering
    oil - 2 tspn
    rai - 1 sp
    til - 1 tsp
    kadipata - 1 stalk

    Take a bowl add rice & gram flour alongwith salt and curd and mix it with water to make it a smooth dosa like batter. Crush green chilli, ginger & kadipata and put this in the batter. Put a pinch of soda if required as I haven't used the same.

    Grease a thali and pour the above batter and allow it to steam in Idli Cooker for 10-12 mnts. Cut into diamond shape but here i poured the batter into silicon mould so that kids would be happy seeing its shape. Temper with oil, rai, til, kadipata and when rai splutters, add a pinch of red chilli powder for the spicy effect (if required).

    It goes well with green chutney, salad, raita etc...

    So Have a Freaking Friday......:cool2:

    Magee...koki is a Sindhi breakfast dish. Every Sindhi household makes this on a regular basis. Ask any Sindhi if he would like to have chai-koki and you will never hear a NO!!!

    UPMA

    1. Semolina (Rava) (1 cup)
    2. Cooking oil (3-4 tbsp)
    3. Mustard seeds (1/2 tsp)
    4. Cumin (1 tsp)
    5. Ginger root (1/2 tsp, grated)
    6. Green chillies (3-5 med, chopped)
    7. Chopped onions (1 med, chopped)
    8. Salt to taste
    9. Vegetables of choice: Peas, carrots, tomatoes, capsicum, etc. (today I added coriander, carrot finely grated, tomatoes finely chopped)
    10. Grated coconut (3-4 tbsp, optional)
    11. Lemon juice (2 tsp, optional)

    METHOD


    1. Dry-roast Semolina (rava) until it just begins to turn brown, then keep aside.
    2. In a large saucepan/wok, heat the cooking oil.
    3. Add mustard seeds and wait for them to sputter. Then add cumin, ginger, green chillies and chopped onions and fry until onions caramelise.
    4. Add vegetables, salt and 2 cups of water, and bring to boil.
    5. Add the roasted rava, turn down the heat, and mix quickly to avoid lumps forming.
    6. The upma is done when all the water is absorbed by the rava.
    7. Garnish with grated coconut, chopped coriander leaves and lemon juice.
