Masala Maggie

-
Maggie now thats something everybody loves and know how to prepare one. Then why to post something everybody knows. 


My friends at my institute really appreciate the maggie that BTW I take for lunch almost everyday, so I thought why not post the recipe that I follow. It really doesn't take 2mins like the add says, so if you are ready to spend more than 2mins preparing this dish, I bet your kids are gone start eating some vegetables :)


Ingredients:

  1. Maggie : 1 pack
  2. Magggie Masala: 1 (included in the pack)
  3. Onion: 1 medium thinly sliced
  4. Green Chilli: 1-2 finely chopped (you can skip this if preparing for kids)
  5. Tomato: 1 medium finely chopped
  6. Mixed vegetable:1 cup (carrot, pea, brocoli, cauliflower, beans, basically its your choice.)
  7. Egg: 1whole (optional)
  8. Turmeric powder: 1/2tsp
  9. Red Chilli Powder: 1/2tsp
  10. Oil: 1tsp
  11. Salt: 1/2 tsp
  12. Hot Water: 1 cup



Procedure:


In a pan heat half of the oil. 
Beat egg along with little salt and pepper. Pour the beaten egg into the pan and prepare scrambled eggs. Once the eggs are done remove from heat.
In another pan heat rest of the oil. 
Add chopped onion and green chilli and a pinch of salts. Let it cook for a min or so till the onions are little sweaty.
Add the chopped tomatoes, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, maggie masala and rest of the salt and cook till the tomatoes are mushy.
Add the chopped vegetables cover and cook till the veggies are cooked through.
While the vegetables are cooking in a saucepan cook the maggie noodles in 1 cup of water till almost done(use little more water if required.)
Add the scrambled eggs to the vegetables.
Add the cooked noodles into the pan  with vegetable masal. Mix well and cook for another minute or so till all the water is dry.




For variations try cooked shredded chicken. If I am in a hurry I skip on the mixed veggies and just stick to onion and tomatoes and it works out pretty well. Vegetarians can skip the scrambled eggs. 


Enjoy this yummy maggie dish with your family and kids and do let me know.


till then happy blogging

Chicken Biryani in Rice cooker

-

I bought a new rice cooker few days back and since then haven't stopped experimenting on it. I used to think its just for cooking rice or steaming meat and veggies. I went through the whole recipe book that came along with it but ended with nothing. It has great recipes but they are not exactly what we prefer to eat. So I did a little research on my own. I have always made biryani the same way layering the half cooked chicken and half cooked rice and cook it over the heater in a cover pot. But most of the time I ended up with a small of portion of the masala, chicken and rice burning .So would go to a restaurant and eat briyani rather than going through all the trouble. After buying the rice cooker I decided to give chicken biryani one more shot in the rice cooker. I thought what the heck it can't be any worst :) And I am glad that I tried. It turned out amazing. It had every thing one looks for in a good biryani, aroma, flavor and juicy chicken. So here we go... Ingredients: C...

The unripe green papaya can be eaten cooked, usually in curries, salads, and stews. Green papaya is used in Southeast Asian cooking, both raw and cooked.  Papaya fruit is a rich source of nutrients such as provitamin A carotenoids, vitamin C, B vitamins, lycopene, dietary minerals and dietary fibre.  Back at my mom's place we had a big garden where she used to grow all types of vegetables, Papaya, Banana, Tomato, green chillies and the list go on and on. If you have ever grown a papaya you know its like never ending fruits and there is always so much you can eat. Mostly my Mom would pick them before they are ripe and use them in santula or dalma. Here I am sharing the santula recipe that uses green papaya. Ingredients: Papaya: 1 medium cut in small cubes Potato: 1 small cut into cubes. Cumin seeds: 1tsp Green Chilli: 1-2 cut length wise. Tomato: 1 small cut into cubes. Turmeric Powder: 1 tsp Roasted cumin and red cilli Powder: 1 tsp (Look for the recipe...
