Minimum ingredients meal for the day

With the situation going around the world, you’ve got to keep yourself busy and occupied. Lockdown has got us stuck at our homes with probably doing nothing other than over thinking.  In our opinion, the best way to avoid that is to cook up a storm in your kitchen and let that stress die! But then comes the second part, every morning you’re worried about ‘what to cook?’Since, there are just specific ingredients available and you can’t go for fancier recipes involving tons of ingredients. So, here are some fun all-day meal ideas which involve just basic ingredients, but are surely to make your day extra special.

Blockbuster breakfast!

Till now, you might have already gotten bored with poha and upma. Boycotting them is not an option, so, we’re going to add some twist to your all-time favourite breakfasts. Here’s a delicious Poha Dhokla with just the everyday ingredients to add life to your mornings. Also, these need no fermenting. So, you can whip up the dhokla batter instantly.

Another way to add life to your breakfasts is this Bread Upma, this one, in a South Indian avatar. If you have leftover bread or pav, you can make use of them in this amazing recipe.

Lazeez lunch!

What could be better than a delicious and flavourful pulao for a comforting lunch? So, here’s a slightly different recipe: Chukandar Corn Pulao, packed with the goodness of beetroots and deliciousness of corn. Serve with your favourite raita or just curd, and get ready for a post-lunch nap.

You can also make a quick sabzi like this Dahi Baingan. Why don’t you make it for lunch, serve with garmagaram chapattis and find out why is it so popular?
