Millet’s are the extremely good source of fiber and protein compared with white rice. Proso millet is a healthy grain and alternative to rice. Do include millet in your daily diet for more health benefits to stay healthy.

  • Proso millet - 1/2 cup 
  •  Moong daal - 1/4 cup
  • Salt, to taste

DIRECTIONS:
Step 1 Wash the proso millet thoroughly in running water a couple of times, or till the water runs clear. Drain out all the excess water.

Step 2 When the millets are done soaking, wash the moong daal in running water a couple of times, or till the water runs clear. Drain out all the excess water. Keep aside. Step 3 Set a pressure cooker bottom on high flame. Add in the ghee, and let it melt. Add in the mustard, and let it splutter. Now, add in the cumin seeds and asafoetida. Let them stay in for a couple of seconds. Step 4 Drain out all the water from the soaked millets, and add them to the pressure cooker. Step 5 Add in the washed and drained moong daal as well, along with salt to taste, turmeric, chopped onions, carrot, capsicum, green peas, tomatoes and green chillies. Step 6 Add in 3 cups of water.

Brown rice provides a natural wholeness" to the grain and is rich in proteins, thiamine, calcium, magnesium, fiber, and potassium. Brown rice is high in fiber, acts as an anti-oxidant and has a low glycemic index which is best for diabetes. It is a good option for lunch/dinner. This recipe provides good quality proteins obtained from the cereal-pulse combination and is packed with a good amount of dietary fiber. It helps in preventing diabetes, weight loss, heart disease and lowers cholesterol due to its high fiber content.

The vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre in lauki keep the body well-nourished and curb unnecessary appetite. It consists of approximately 96% of water and is, therefore, a great thirst quencher. It also prevents fatigue and keeps the body cool and refreshed during summers. One of the many yoghurt benefits is that it helps improve your digestion, which is mainly due to the nutrients available in yoghurt. Eating curd will make it easier for your body to absorb nutrients from other food items that you eat.
