Dal BattiBy Meg's KitchenDal Batti is a traditional Rajasthani dish which is an absolute delight to have. It’s indulgent, yum and extremely comforting to have on a lazy Sunday afternoon. Accompanied with a glass of chaas it’s perfect before a rejuvenating siesta. Each household has their own version of it. Some people make it with 3 different mixed dal and serve along with gatte ki sabzi or aloo sabzi or garlic chutney. How we eat at our home is with sliced onions, green chutney, tinda in tomato gravy, ghee, whole green chilly and some lemon! Its an easier meal to make than simple pulav with lots of vegetables to chop or dal, roti, sabzi and rice meal. Its quick, easy, a fabulous change and so so yummm. If you haven’t made it at home yet, you gotta do it today! I completely simplified it.

Dry Masala ArbiBy Meg's KitchenArbi is one such vegetable that some people hate it and some people absolutely love it. The recipe I am sharing here today is one that can convert the haters! Well, at least I sure hope so. By the way, I learnt this recipe from my mom and she learnt it from her mom!! I’ve made a small change though – I did not deep fry it but used the air fryer for making it.
Whole Wheat Delhi Style Kulcha (Baked)By Meg's KitchenBorn and brought up in Delhi, I have fond memories of eating matara kulcha almost 3 times a week after school. Of course, I had my favourite vendors but then almost all places had a fabulous version of their own. I could have it anytime! What is interesting is that I never really made it at home until I moved to Mumbai. And when I did, I assumed I would get kulchas easily in the market (yes, I was sooo wrong!) and made matara at home. And that’s when I realise, kulcha is what pao is to Delhi – ALIEN!! They call stuffed naan or plain naan, kulcha in Mumbai. From almost 10 years ago to now, I have never bothered again to find kulchas in the market, and simply make my own. Why?? Because it’s the simplest easiest thing to do and is ready in no time. The days I am feeling healthy food, I have an option of making it with 100% whole wheat and other days when I want to indulge in the authentic taste, I make it with maida. It’s my pleasure to share my recipe for Delhi style kulchas with you all.
