An another incredible dish which is quite a must to try if you want to prepare something different with the super humble grain aka Quinoa. Quinoa, this is my star ingredient of this week's blogging marathon as am running One ingredient,three main courses as theme. Prepared with loads of vegetables and three different dals, this lipsmacking healthy dal bhath is a must if you are searching for something healthy and easy to dish out. Trust me, this mixed dals bhath is a one pot meal and you can prepare this super comforting food in less time than you can imagine. Pressure cooker is a must if you want to dish out your meals in less time. Obviously this dish calls for pressure cooking.
I prepared this fantastic super comforting meal few days back for our lunch as i dont want to make some elaborate meal. Simply served with fryums and papads, this bhath makes an excellent meal and you will definitely please your hungry tummy with this lipsmacking dish. Adding some fried cashews and drizzled with ghee, this mixed dals bhath prepared with quinoa tastes absolutely awesome while the weather is simply chilled outside.
