Vazhaipoo Vadai | Banana Flower - Lentils Fritters | Snack Recipe

Today's recipe is a healthy vada with vazhaipoo/ banana flower. Banana flower is one vegetable which I had bought very very rare maybe once or twice before.Although knowing the goodness in it I avoid buying as I was damn sure my kids won't touch it.But If I make any fried snack with it then I was sure it goes well with them.Last week bought a box of peeled flowers from the big basket ( ordering for the first time) keep in mind to make vada with it.but my laziness didn't give time and mood to cook. Somehow I managed to make this healthy fritters for the snack on Tuesday.The difficult part is removing the long stigma in the middle of each flower.Then chopping & grinding are too simple.Here I didn't chop I just added to the dal and ground it.

Mosambi Juice | Sweet Lime Juice

Mosambi/ sweet lime / sathukudi is a citrus fruit which I rarely buy because my kiddos hate eating fruits and I need to push them now and then to include at least a banana in their diet.Hence fruit shopping I were rare if so It must me, Me alone have to finish them up.

But If I make any juice or milkshake with fruits they would finish up without any fuss.I rarely make juice, as I'm much concerned about the sugar, goes into it. Once a while I make to ensure they get the benefits of the fruit.The difficult part is squeezing of the sweet lime but I you have an electric  squeezer then no pain.

Mealmaker / Soya chunk Patties | Mini soya granules patties | Vegan Burger Patties

My kids are fond of this soya granule aka soya chunks, Even if I just shallow fry for them there would be a fight between the two of it.At times I make vegan chicken 65/ soya 65 for their lunch box and many times curry with it for roti/ chapathi.
For a day dinner I planned to make the burger and for the patties, I thought to make it with this soya chunks.Since it easily gets soaked no prior planning for making these patties is needed.
