Corn and Spinach Dhokla for MAITRI

Image
This recipe goes towards MAITRI, a friendship chain created for food bloggers across N America.where a bogger sends a mystery ingredient to another blogger who then whips up something with it and blogs about it.  For more details on MAITRI, visit the blog site of Priya or Reshmi   who are behind this. As a part of this chain, I was matched with Shylaja who had sent me a packet of cornflour and a cute little bunch of decor grapes.  Eventhough I could tell right away, I made sure it was cornflour by tasting it and getting a confirmation from Shylaja.  The bunch of grapes are sitting along with my other artificial fruits on the center of the dining table.

Pecan Ladoo

Image
1 cup pecans                                                        1/2 cup oats 3/4 cup sugar few cardamom pods a spoon of ghee 1/4 cup milk Process the pecans making sure that it does not get lumpy. Roast the oats in a spoon of ghee until it turns golden brown in color. Powder this with the sugar and cardamom. In the meanwhile, begin to toast the processed pecans on the stove top. Slowly you will begin to see that the nuts are letting out oil and kind of coming together. Roast this until you get the smell of the pecans making sure it does not get burnt. Transfer this and the oats mixture to a bowl. Have a quarter cup of milk heated up and ready. It is not required to boil the milk. Use the needed amount of  milk  to bind all the processed powder and nuts together. I always thought that these ladoos needed ghee to hold them until I saw this wonderful recipe of Priya's Microwave Oats and Poha Ladoo. That is when I learnt that you can use warm milk instead. Roll

Add the beans and add the carrot and peas after a minute.  Add salt just enough for the vegetables and cook covered on low to medium heat for 3 minutes.  In the meanwhile heat up about 2 cups of water and add it to the vegetables.
