BISI BELE BATH - TODDLER SPECIAL

Hola! I'm back with many recipes!!

For now, it's toddler special Bisi bele bath. It's almost the same as how we normally do but with little changes. I have removed few ingredients from the original recipe. So, here it is:

PREP TIME : 15 MINS
COOK TIME : 30 MINS
SERVES : 1

INGREDIENTS:

RICE - 3/4 CUP
TOOR DAL - 1/4 CUP
ONION SHALLOTS - 1/4 CUP (I have added normal onions and in this case 1 large onion, cut into pieces would do)
VEGETABLES - 1/2 CUP (Finely chopped beans, carrot, Peas, potato and capsicum)
TAMARIND - Small lemon sized ball
OIL - 1TSP
GHEE - 3 TSP
BISI BELE BATH POWDER - 2 TBSP
HING - PINCH
CURRY LEAVES - FEW
MUSTARD SEEDS - FEW

METHOD:

Soak tamarind in a cup of hot water for 10 - 15 minutes and extract its juice.

Pressure cook rice and dal separately. Mash it.

In a pan, add oil, mustard seeds and let it splutter. Then add curry leaves.

Add onion and once it turns transparent, add the vegetables. In case of adding tomato, add it after the onions.

Saute the vegetables well. Sprinkle water, cover the vegetables and cook it for few mins.

Add the tamarind juice, salt and bisi bele bath powder.

Cook it covered for few minutes, till the raw smell goes off.

Add the mashed rice and dal. Mix it well.

Add ghee and mix.

Cook for 2 - 3 minutes and switch off.

BISI BELE BATH is ready!

Tips : I usually add less salt, and omit vegetables (at times).

BISI BELE BATH POWDER :

As this is toddler special, I prefer homemade powder.

Ingredients :

OIL : 1 TSP
CORIANDER SEEDS : 1TBSP
RED CHILLIES : 4
CHANNA DAL : 1 TSP
URAD DAL : 1 TSP
CLOVES : 1
CARDAMOM : 1

METHOD:

In a pan, add the oil. Once it gets heated, add the other ingredients.

Roast it well until it becomes light brown.

Dry grind it and the powder is ready.

Keep watching this space for more toddler friendly recipes! Bye for now!
