A Super Bowl (Veggie Lentil Curry with Jeera Rice)
 Hi guys!! I know I know , I have been as bad as ever. Neglecting my blog again for days now. Just got caught up doing other things (like playing Farmville!!) . But now I am back and have something wonderful to share. Wonderful yet very very simple to make , but very nutritious ,mind you. I made this dish just 2 days back. Got the recipe from a diet magazine and the picture in it was so good that I had to make it immediately. This dish is perfect for those days when you have the middle of the week dinner blues and can't think of what to put on the dinner table that day. Well this ones a winner. It's fast to cook and very little washing up to do later as it can all be eaten from a single bowl. What you need: 2 medium onions chopped 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and cut into chunks 1 cup of uncooked masoor dal (split red lentils) 1 cup of green beans cut into pieces 1 cup of cauliflower florets 1/2 cup of green peas 1 tblspn each of garlic and ginger paste 1 heaped tspn mustard seeds 1 tspn cumin 1 tblspn hot curry powder 1 tspn chilly powder (more if you like) 1/2 tspn turmeric powder Oil to cook coriander to garnish Method: Heat about 3 to 4 tblspns of oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds first. When they begin to splutter add the cumin and fry for about 30 secs. Next add the onions and the ginger- garlic pastes and fry well Add to this the curry powder, chilly powder and turmeric Now add the lentils and the vegetables, salt and 3 to 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil and then lower the heat to simmer. Cover and cook until the veggies are cooked and the lentils are mushy. The beans take the longest to cook , so if they have cooked , rest assured that the rest of the veggies have cooked. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste and garnish with chopped coriander Have this curry with a rice of your choice. I made simple jeera rice and just made a salad to go with it. It makes a quick and power packed supper with minimum hassle. Right! Now after that spicy curry here's something completely different. Recently I was introduced to the GrazeBox. What is a GrazeBox? Well it is just what it sounds like . It's a box which contains 2 or 3 types of nibbles which you can graze on throughout the week. It's the best thing to have to control those 4o'clock hunger pangs .It contains delicious things like nuts, raisins, seeds dried fruit ,fresh fruit and even some exotic spicy nibbles. This is what a graze box looks like from the outside.  And this is my box from last week. I ordered a graze fresh box and got all this delcious stuff in it. Believe me it's supposed to last you for atleat a week but it was gone in minutes.
