Tasty and Easy Cauliflower Mint Parathas

By / Healthy Breakfast Recipes, Healthy Recipes

Parathas are traditionally delicious and indulgent, but you can give them a healthy twist and turn them into the perfect addition to your weight-loss plan.

Try to imagine a proper paratha for breakfast, and you will inevitably think of an indulgent food experience: the crispy flour shell glistening with a layer of butter or ghee, the stuffing spiced and chock full of flavours, and a finger-licking spread of pickles, chutneys, curd and lassi to go with it.

Now, imagine you are starting a weight loss plan to become truly fit and healthy. You are trying to cut all the food items that are excessive from your diet.

Actually, they can. Parathas are traditionally delicious and indulgent, but you can also give them a healthy twist and turn them into the perfect addition to your weight-loss plan.

Tips to make your paratha healthy :

The first thing you need to do is to break down that paratha breakfast into all its separate components. The things you need to make a good paratha are a flour dough, spiced stuffing, and oil, ghee or butter. The next step is substituting some of these ingredients for healthier options which are easily available at local markets.

To get you started, we put together some options you can explore to have parathas (occasionally) as part of your weight loss plan.

1. The flour: Most of us know that whole wheat flour has more dietary fibre, vitamins B1 and B9, and minerals like phosphorus, magnesium, iron and zinc than refined flour or maida. But what’s even better for making healthier parathas is buckwheat flour. Colloquially known as kuttu atta, it is a gluten-free option popular in north India. High dietary fibre, protein as well as minerals such as manganese, magnesium, iron and copper make paratha made with this flour waist-friendly and heart-healthy.

2. The oil: Cooking the parathas dry and then applying ghee on top is also a good idea. If you are taking this route, try cooking your paratha on a low heat to ensure that it is cooked through olive oil or Ghee, when consumed moderately, has some health benefits too: it contains omega 3 fatty acids such as linoleic acid and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are said to improve heart health and actually help with weight loss!

Now lets indulge in this our childhood memories of paratha !!! Here is the recipe…

Why Breakfast is important ?

Breakfast kick-starts your metabolism, helping you burn calories throughout the day. It also gives you the energy you need to get things done and helps you focus at work or at school. Those are just a few reasons why it’s the most important meal of the day. Many studies have linked eating breakfast to good health, including better memory and concentration, lower levels of “bad” LDL cholesterol, and lower chances of getting diabetes, heart disease, and being overweight.

It’s hard to know, though, if breakfast causes these healthy habits or if people who eat it have healthier lifestyles.

But this much is clear: Skipping the morning meal can throw off your body’s rhythm of fasting and eating. When you wake up, the blood sugar your body needs to make your muscles and brain work their best is usually low. Breakfast helps replenish it. Also Researchers have found that on average, people who eat breakfast are thinner than those who don’t. That could be because eating foods with protein and fiber in the morning keeps your appetite in check the rest of the day.

Now lets come over to our list of Easy Breakfast recipes!!!

Lets learn How to make EGG BENEDICT in easier way

By / Eggs, Healthy Breakfast Recipes, Healthy Recipes

What is egg benedict ?

Eggs Benedict is a traditional American breakfast and brunch recipe that originated in New York City. It consists of an English muffin, cut in half, toasted, and topped with Canadian bacon, poached eggs, and classic French Hollandaise sauce. It’s decadent, rich, and satisfying. These days egg benedict is getting popularity around the world.

How to make perfect Poached eggs ?

Not everyone poaches eggs right on the first try. Or the second. If you’ve never made poached eggs before, they can take some practice. For a better chance of getting it right, try these tips.

  • Start with the freshest eggs you can get. The older the eggs are, the more likely they are to fall apart in the simmering water.
  • Make sure the water is barely simmering (with just a few bubbles appearing every now and then). If the water is at a full boil (lots of rapidly moving bubbles), the chances of the egg separating when it hits the water are greater.
  • Don’t forget to add the vinegar to the water.
  • Crack the egg into a small bowl before adding it to the water. Then gently slide the egg from the bowl into the simmering water.
  • Time the poaching egg carefully. Four minutes should be just about right.
  • Drain the poached eggs well. Hot tip: a stale piece of bread works even better than a paper towel.

Substitution for Canadian Bacon with Indian Twist

While Canadian bacon is the standard in eggs Benedict, it’s okay to buck tradition with these alternatives. And to make your recipe more palatable.

  1. Chicken Salami or Simple Chicken strip from breast. (Whatever is available to you)
  2. Fish Fillet (Thin slice)
  3. Sauteed Spinach
  4. Paneer Strips (Thin slices), can use grilled paneer/Tofu
  5. Ham
  6. Smoked or canned Fish (whatever is available).

Hollandaise Sauce

This Blender Hollandaise Sauce is really a breeze to make. But you do need to follow the recipe closely. Stick to these tips and you’ll be in good shape.

  • Blend the egg yolks a full 30 seconds. Blending them for less time makes for a runnier sauce, plus it heats the eggs yolks a bit.
  • Melt the butter gently, so it’s not hot and sputtering (this can cause the sauce to break).
  • Add the butter in a slow, steady stream as the blender runs. Adding the butter too fast keeps the sauce from properly emulsifying.
  • If the sauce is emulsified but too thin for your liking, pour it into the pot you melted the butter in and heat over low heat, whisking constantly until it gets more thickness.
Hollandaise Sauce

Turn the blender down to lowest setting, slowly dribble in the hot melted butter, while continuing to blend. Taste for salt and acidity and add more salt or lemon juice to taste. Transfer it to a container you can use for pouring and set it on a warm—but not hot—place on or near the stovetop.
  3. Poach the eggs: Essentially, working one egg at a time you crack an egg into a small bowl and slip it into the barely simmering water. Once it begins to solidify, you can slip in another egg, until you have all four cooking. Turn off the heat, cover the pan, and let sit for 4 minutes. (Remember which egg went in first, you’ll want to take it out first.) When it comes time to remove the eggs, gently lift out with a slotted spoon.

Tip 1: Toast the 1 cup sesame seeds. If you plan to toast the seeds, we recommend doing so on the stovetop and not in the oven. Sesame seeds are tiny and so they burn very easily. Over medium-low heat then stir constantly with a spoon until the seeds darken ever so slightly in color and become fragrant. When the sesame seeds have cooled, Put them into the bowl of our food processor, shut the lid then process until a crumbly paste begins to form. Add 3 – 4 tsp of neutral flavored oil and process into a smooth cream. To reach a similar consistency as store-bought, we’ve found 3 to 4 tablespoons of oil should do it. After more processing, a few stops to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl and a little more processing after that, the tahini is done. Extra smooth and ready to use in whatever recipe you like.

Tip 2: To make it more convenient you can blend Chickpeas, Carrot, Walnut and Sesame seeds and other ingredients altogether. So you don’t need to add Tahini in it.

Tip 3: You can use ready made Tahini Sauce available in market in making this carrot hummus.

BREAD TOAST

  1. 4 whole wheat bread slices
  2. 2 Avocados
  3. Tomatoes slices
  4. Sprouts (optional)
  5. Toasted sesame
  6. Extra virgin olive oil

OR

You can also use Cucumbers, Onion, Peppers on topping of the Toast. One can use any Veggies of choice depending upon the availability. And trust me taste will remain the same.

PREPARATIONS –

  1. Peel the carrots and cut into pieces about two centimeters thick. Put them into boil in a saucepan until cooked, around 15 minutes.
  2. In a food processor, mix the carrot with the chickpeas, tahini sauce, cumin, lemon juice, garlic, toasted walnuts and extra virgin olive oil. If the hummus gets thick, you can add some lemon juice. Put it in bowls and reserve until the serving time.
  3. Serve the whole wheat bread slices spreading the hummus and putting on the top 2 slices of avocado, tomatoes slices, alfa alfa sprouts (optional), toasted sesame and extra virgin olive oil.
