"🌱 Whip up a delicious bowl of Horsegram pithla! 🍲✨ Perfect for all the amazing PCOS warriors out there, this traditional Indian recipe is packed with health benefits and cultural significance. 💪💚
🌟 Horsegram, also known as kulith, is a nutrient powerhouse that supports hormonal balance and overall well-being. 🌺 With its high fiber content, it aids in digestion, promotes weight management, and helps regulate blood sugar levels. 🌿
🌼Ingredients:
2 teaspoon horsegram flour(30g)
1 onion, chopped (30g)
4 cloves of garlic, chopped
3 pieces of kokum
1 teaspoon oil (5 g)
1 cup water (for cooking)
1 cup water (for mixing with horsegram flour)
2 green chilies, chopped
Salt to taste
Fresh coriander leaves for garnishing
Method:
Heat oil in a thick-bottomed kadhai or a deep skillet over medium heat.
Add chopped onions and garlic to the kadhai. Sauté them until the onions turn translucent and the garlic becomes fragrant.
Add chopped green chilies and kokum pieces to the kadhai. Stir well.
Pour 1 cup of water into the kadhai and bring it to a boil. Let it simmer for a few minutes until the kokum releases its flavor.
While the mixture is simmering, take 1 cup of water in a separate bowl and add horsegram flour to it. Mix well to form a smooth paste, ensuring there are no lumps.
Once the kokum mixture has simmered, slowly pour the horsegram flour mixture into the kadhai while stirring continuously to avoid any lumps.
Add salt to taste and stir well. Allow the mixture to cook on low heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally. The mixture will thicken as it cooks.
If the mixture becomes too thick, you can add another 1/2 cup of water or as needed to achieve the desired consistency.
Once cooked, turn off the heat and transfer the Horsegram PITHLA to a serving bowl.
Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.
