ABOUT THE RECIPE

  • This is not an authentic indian breakfast receipe with flattened rice and potatoes. It is one of my favourite receipes. Adding mustard, curry leaves and lime juice brings out the original flavour.
Why no potatoes in keto?

    A single potato would take up your entire carb allotment for the day.When you eat a potato you       spike your blood sugar more than when you eat bread

Whatsapp group Atrocities

A few years back, Life was more peaceful and private. There was nobody to notice when you woke up/slept.For sending SMS and one has to wait for the reply.Sending pictures costs you more.There was Value for time and relationships. But now everything has changed to Delivered,read,typing..... These thoughts have been running in mind for past few years. Categorized few of the atrocities many of us are facing in WhatsApp Type 1: Mr. Sweet face They have this uncontrollable quest for pleasing everyone. They use almost all the smileys ,try replying them without a smiley they think you are angry at them. You don't have to reply all messages. It is not a crime to ignore a few forward messages. Type 2: I don't give a damn! Speaking of ignoring there are some super brilliant people who chose not to reply  any message in the group. These are my favorite ones.They are like an audience for a talk show. Type 3: In group bias Oh yeah.. the worst ones ! They do dir...

How are you feeling today? Anxious?  Stressed Out? Lonely? Don't worry. You are not alone. I know everyone is talking about covid, immunization, vaccine, vitamin C.

Amidst this existential crisis, we are sleeping, cooking, working, and hoping everything will turn out well one day.  Without any denial, we learned how to live with it. In 1844, the Danish philosopher Søren Kierkegaard wrote: Whoever has learned to be anxious in the right way, has learned the ultimate. Covid is a way of enlightening us that grief could be shared, at this level of pandemic and struggle we all go through. Let's Focus on what we can control. The most commonly reported experience during this pandemic is difficulty eating healthily and exercise. Let's exercise not for the calories or the slim waist but to get our daily dose of endomorphin.

Image
After multiple tries, Today I finally made the Perfect Keto Dosa. The Key to perfect keto dosa is patience Ingredients: Paneer - 1 cup (grated) Psyllium husk- 1tbsp Curd - 1 tbsp Salt - 1 Tsp Water - 1/2 cup Method: 1. Mix the ingredients in a blender and make a fine paste. 2. Pour the mix into a frying pan and drizzle oil/butter. 3. Cover with a lid and cook on medium flame for 3-5 minutes/until the dosa is golden brown. 4. Let it cool for few seconds. The dosa gets crispier after  the plate.  5. Enjoy your crispy Keto Dosa with some tomato chutney! About the recipe: Adding psyllium husk makes the batter sticky and thick,So adjust the amount of water and psyllium husk accordingly. However,the batter dilutes in the pan. Don't try to spread the dosa using ladle.insted rotate the pan clockwise and spread it (just like you do for rava dosa).. You can add some almond flour/Coconut flour/ Grated coconut for flavour.
