Saturday, December 29, 2007

A simple soup thats really good for you and takes less time to cook.

Ingredients
Broccoli - 1 cup of florets
Milk - 2% half a cup
Salt - a few pinches
Black pepper to taste

1. Boil the broccoli in little water(till broccoli is submerged in water halfway) till it gets very soft and almost dissolves in water.
2. Add the same to a blender along with the water. Leave a little bit to the side for some decoration.
3. If you'd like add some milk slowly and then grind the mixture.
4. Add some salt and black pepper (to taste).
5. Blend in again.

Pour in a soup bowl and decorate with the left over broccoli.

Serves 1 - 2

Omrice with Broccoli


Today I tried a simple recipe with egg with little innovation. I had some leftover rice from last day and some broccoli as well.

Ingredients: Egg
Onion (finely or not so finely chopped depending on mood)
Green chilly: sliced
Broccoli: Washed and thin sliced.

As usual with any omelet beat all the ingredients together.
Once oil is heated on the frying pan spread the omelet as usual.
Heat rice in the remainder area of the pan.
When one side of omelet is done roll over and insert the rice in it.
Flip over and Omrice is done !!
Easy?

My aim in the next few weeks (hopefully) is to come up with studying the nutrition contents of the same.
