Any food which is high in Protein , low in carbs will make you loose wait. Soya protein products, such as soya beans, tofu (bean curd), dhaal, nuts (moderation pls ). Muscles burns off fat, when you are resting, that is sleeping. hence the more muscle you have in the body, the higher your metabolism will function.
Minimum 2 liters of water is a MUST , which will get rid of toxins in your body and circulate blood and oxygen to your body
coming to food :lol2:
Thai vegi food are mainly soya based, hence very low in calories!

Roat over open flame(medium) one medium sized baingan(purple big fat variety). U need to apply oil all ober the brinjal before roasting. U can use the oven for it but roasting over open flame or charcoal gives a spl flavour.
Once the brinjal is blackened all over,put it in a vessel & close with a lid & let cool.
Alternately u can dip it in water to cool it down.
Now peel off all the skin & mash it roughly or chop into small pieces. Mashing gives a nice texture.
Heat 2 tsp oil. Add 1/4 tsp jeera.saute.
Add 1 medium onion chopped. Let ir become golden.
Add 1 tsp grated gin-garlic. saute till flavourful.
Add chilly pwd, salt, 1 tsp cori pwd, 1/2 tsp garam masala. Saute for few secs.
Add 1 tomato chopped.Saute till pulpy.
Add in the mashed brinjal , very lil water & cook for few mins so that any brinjal pieces tht r not cooked gets cooked well & the bharta becomes thick .
Garnish with coriander leaves.
Serve with rotis.
Can some one tell me how to make 'Chilie Paneer' , please? I tried at home, but the cheese looked and tasted uncooked
thanks
PS, the paneer is already cooked in the process of making paneer... so it doesn't need much cooking time... anyway, I'll see if I have any chilly paneer recipe in my file & let u know...

Chilli Paneer:
Cut the paneer(200 gms) into thick trips or to ur liking.
Make a batter - equal qty of maida & corn flour(say 4-5tbsp each) , 1 tsp soya sauce, white pepper pwd, salt, a pinch baking pwd,1/4 cup water.
Dip the paneer pieces in the batter & deep fry in hot oil until golden brown. U need to fry on medium-high heat. If the paneer is fried for long, it'll turn rubbery.
Heat a tsp oil(high heat) in another pan. Add 1 tsp chipped gin,2tsp chopped garlic, few spring onion whites(or normal onion-1 small) cut into mediumm sized sq pieces,2 g.chillies chopped. fry for a min or so.
Add 1/2 capsicum cut into medium sized sq pieces. Saute for a few more mins.
Add in the soy sauce-2tbsp, chilli sauce-1 tbsp(optional),sugar(use sugar if u r not using chilli sauce)-1tsp, salt(if needed),1/2 tsp white pepper pwd, 1 tbsp corn flour mixed with 3 tbsp water or veg stock & let it come to a boil.
Add the paneer pieces & keep stirring. cook on high heat until the sauce thickens & kind of coats the paneer & capsicum.
Serve hot.
Note:
U can try pan frying the paneer for a healthier version.
DIET KITCHEN la panneer... :think: :P
MS, use low fat paneer to make it healthier...;) :lol:
:P thts a kood idea... :lol2:Quote:

dev,
nice receipes, one by one i am trying. today i made mushroom. it came out very nicely, we liked it.
brocolli also tried, we liked it.
thanks dev
Thanks for the nice feedback,Selvi...
Today i made the mushroom fry & used it to make chapathi rolls/wraps. Just spread some thinly sliced onons,tomato chopped & cori leaves in a line on the centre of the chapathi. place the mushrooms on the onion mix & wrap it..
I sometimes add lil lemon juice,tomatoes, capscicum to the roll. It's all to taste.
thanks devQuote:

Spring Dosai : mixed veg dosai chinese style
Heat oil & add 1 med onion,thinly sliced. Now add in a mix of shredded vegs(carrot,cabbage)-2 cups,capsicum-thin strips- 1 large. if u have, u can add some bean sprouts-1/2 cup & they give a nice crunch to the dish. Stir on high heat for a min or so. Add soya sauce-2 tsp, szechuan sauce-3 tsp,pepper pwd-1/2 tsp,salt,sugar-a pinch.Mix well. Add spring onions-5,chopped with the bulb, stir to mix well & take off flame.
Spread the dosa batter to make thin dosai. Place the stuffing in the middle of the dosai & fold both sides to make it like a roll.
U can cut it into 3 pieces for easy handling.
Serve hot. U an eat it as such.
Note: if u don't have szechuan sauce, u can add chilli-gar sauce & lil vinegar but there'll be some diff in taste.
Thinking of adding Thinai in my diet... much more nutritious than rice...:think:
what is thinai? ( pardon my ignorance)
