VEGETABLE DALIA

VEGETABLE DALIA

Dalia is also called Broken Wheat or Cracked Wheat. It’s high in fiber & is very nutritional & healthy. You can make it sweet or spicy/savory according to your taste. This is my mom's version of spicy dalia.
Ingredients:
1 cup Broken Wheat (Dalia), 1 cup chopped cauliflower, 1 cup chopped carrot, 1 cup chopped capsicum, 1 cup chopped gherkins (tondali), 1 Onion chopped, 1 tbsp Oil, 2 red chilies, 1tsp red chili powder, 1 tsp garam masala, 1 tsp goda masala, ¼ tsp asafedita, 1/4 tsp Mustard Seeds, 1 tsp grated Ginger, Salt to taste, Coriander Leaves for garnish, grated coconut and 1 tbsp ghee.

Method:
1. Heat the oil in a kadhai. Add the mustard and asafetida. When the mustard splutters, add the onions, red chili, ginger and fry for a couple of minutes.
2. Add the mixed vegetables and fry for 2 minutes.
3. Add the broken wheat and fry the entire mixture for 2 minutes. Mix well.
4. Add garam and goda masala, red chili powder and salt. Mix it well.
5. Add 3 cups of boiling hot water to this. Mix well.
6. Cook it in pressure cooker.
7. Add ghee and then garnish with coriander leaves and grated coconut.
Enjoy a light & Healthy meal. :-)
