TOPIC: Desi Bhel with a Twist

Nothing original but always wanted to try out something different when the mercury goes north!

1. Sprout Bhel
- Bombay Bhel Mix from any Indian Grocery stores
- Sprout Moong - can boil it too.
- Green Chutney - home, freshly made (or can get at IG stores)
- Diced Tomatoes, Onions, Green Mangoes (if you can get)
- Add some peanuts, resins.
- Cilantro to garnish

Mix it all up, top it with super-cold battered desi yogurt!

2. Mexican Bhel
- Bombay Bhel Mix from any Indian Grocery stores
- Low Sodium Black Beans
- Diced Tomatoes, Onions
- Slice Guacamole
- Strip Corn Chips - for crispiness
- Cilantro to garnish
- Shredded Cheese of your choice

Mix it all up, top it with super-cold battered sour-cream!

You forgot diced boiled potatoes

Good thread you started.Ladies wake up , thread is started by male.Foods thread should be taken over by ladies.
sanju,thanks for posting.

sanju,

Thanks for starting a nice thread. I will try the mexican bhel this weekend. It is something different.

I will increase your karma point for this thread.

All ladies, I am sure that you will have different ideas. Please share your creativity here.

Thanks
Kubi

Thanks Kubi.

I hope fellow ATers will share some "cool" recipes esp now that the mercury is going to stay north for some time to come & if cooking in the kitchen heat could be avoide if not all together.

3. Compliment Meals with Cucumber Raita
Yes, plain old & as simple as mixing super-cold yogurt, shredded cucumber (without the skin) - add jeera powder or even better chaat masala or jal-jeera mix & then chill it in fridge for 30 mins or so. In fact, cucumber-raita could be a good snack on a sizzling hot summer afternoon.

Sanju, both bhel combinations are interesting..I will try them and share pictures.

LFC - I am sure your pictures will be as good as the presentation itself! Will wait for your pix.

Guys,

You guys are awesome. I am just kidding so don't take it seriously.

Good part of Indian culture still maintained in heart. Guest always welcome and Guest is God even if it is anonymous )) One person gives his address and the other starts planning for the correct date.

Have a good weekend.
