Zucchini pulao:
I saw zucchini rice recipe from one of the youtube videos of manjula's kitchen. I got inspired and I customized it, made a zucchini pulao with little variations.
Here is the recipe..
Rice - 2 cup
Bay leaves - 2
cinnamon stick - 1 inch
cumin seeds - 1 tsp
big onion - 1
shredded zucchini - 2 cup for 2 cups rice
Peas - as required
salt - as required
jeera and pepper powder - 1 tsp
green chillies - 3 or 4 based on the spicyness
Method:
Soak Rice in water, then drain the water and keep it aside for abt 15 mins.
Heat oil in a big vessel(the size of the vessel should be enuff to cook rice),
Put cinnamon stick, cumin seeds, bay leaves, leave it till it turns color.
Now add onion, green chillies, saute well till it turns color. Add peas, salt, pepper jeera powder and mix well. Add zuccini shreds, give a good mix.
Now, add the soaked and drained rice, mix well for abt 5 mins. Add 4 cups of water.
Keep in high heat for abt 10 mins, then reduce to medium flame and let it cook for abt 10 mins or till the rice is cooked.
Thats it!!!!! Zucchini pulao is ready. Enjoy with some good gravy. I prepared Mushroom gravy. I didnt feel like adding ginger garlic, next time I ll try to do that with this. I have in mind to grind onion and chilli. Let us see how that will turn out.
Bhindi and onion chukka fry:
Bhindi - 350 gms
Turmeric powder - a pinch
Chilli powder - as required.
Coriander powder - 1/2 tsp optional
salt - as required
Oil - as required
Grind to paste:
medium onion - 1
Channa dal - 2 tbsp
dry Red chilli - 3
Method:
First fry channa dal and red chilli in oil. Grind in a mixer grinder. Put chopped onion and grind together with channa dal. Dont put water.
Chop Bhindi diagonally into medium size. Add Salt, chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, mix well.
In a pan, heat oil, Put spice mixed bhindi and fry well. Once it is 75% cooked.
Now add the onion + channa dal + red chilli paste, fry well. Reduce flame and keep tossing it once in a while, till you get a semi roasted bhindi fry.
Enjoy as side dish for rice or roti.
Simple Aloo spinach green curry:
2 medium size potato
2 bunch spinach
1 big onion
Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
Bay leaves - 2
Ginger garlic paste - 1 tbsp
Turmeric powder - 1 pinch
Chilli powder - 1 tsp
Pepper/Jeera powder - 1/2 tsp
Garam masala - 1/2 tsp
Salt
Method:
Grind spinach and keep it aside.
Heat oil in a wok, add cumin seeds, bay leaves. Now add chopped onion, saute well.
Add ginger garlic paste. Fry till the mix turns brown.
Add chilli powder, turmeric powder, pepper jeera powder, salt and mix well.
Add potato(chopped to medium size), fry well for abt 10 mins.
Now add spinach paste, mix well. Put required water and cook till potato and spinach is cooked well. Sprinkle garam masala, cook for abt 5 mins. Thats it!!!!
Enjoy with roti...!!!!!!!!!!!!
