Tips Corner:
Here are a few tips to ensure a healthy and Sathvik vegan dish, when food becomes the medicine that heals the body.
Choice of Vegetables:
You can increase or reduce the quantity of potatoes and capsicum as per your preference
In this method a variety of other vegetables can also be cooked with the same taste as they will be preboiled
Raw vegetables have the highest nutrients when consumed. So do ensure the vegetables are not over cooked. Half cooked vegetables which need chewing are most ideal.
The garnishing with Mustard seeds (kadugu) is purely optional as raw food mixed with heated food reduces the true power of the raw food. So, if possible this step is best avoided as it tastes great even without the tadka
Salt and Spice can be avoided or used minimally if needed. However to make the dish enjoyable for your taste buds, if you do have to use them, please use them towards the end. When you add the salt and spice, switch off the flame. Salt should not be cooked along with the food.
Coconut is a wholesome nutritive ingredient and is not ideal when cooked on flame. So please ensure coconut is added after you remove the dish from flame.
