This is a good side dish and the kind of things you can substitute are many. Also this is very Spicy yum!
This is a great Indian lentil soup recipie. . . One of my favorite restaurants makes it and I decided to try my hand at it to fill my indian craving while not going out to eat! :)
Quick, fragrant and easy stir-fry converted my husband to a cauliflower fan. Add brown rice for a complete protein, vegetarian meal.
Use as a crust for pizza, a delicious wrap for salads, or alongside soup for dipping.
Milk causes gas in people exhibiting Vata symptoms (debility, dryness, constipation, anxiety) because of their weak agni, or digestive fire. For those with a Kapha-type profile, perhaps tending toward excess weight, lethargy, and mucous buildup in the digestive tract, milk can trigger a lot of congestion. Gold milk, on the other hand, is readily absorb-able by Vata and actually destroys mucous in Kapha, making this essential nutritive tonic and rejuvenator a treat for all.
Here's how: Cinnamon and cardamom stimulate digestive activity and break up stomach mucous making the milk easy to digest. Once digested, nutrient-dense milk has a tendency to cool, congeal, and clog the blood. As circulation stagnates, the lungs, sinuses, and all empty cavities fill up with fluids, especially mucous. This kind of mucous lodges deep in the lungs and can be very difficult for Kapha individuals to expectorate.
The herb that gives this recipe its namesake, the golden turmeric, heats and thins the blood. Honey liquefies mucous, preventing the aforementioned circulatory stagnation and mucus. Thin blood circulates freely and makes a Kapha body warm-blooded during colder winter months!
Additionally, turmeric is a natural antibiotic and antimicrobial that is appropriate for even weak individuals. Cinnamon, the beloved spice that seems to have a place in all fall and winter desserts, can help with rebounding from the colds and flus that are as much a part of the holidays as caroling and jingle bells.
I was looking for flavorful lighter recipes and came across this recipe. I tweaked it a little to our liking. My husband and I really enjoyed it.
I used light yogurt, but you'll get a creamier result with regular yogurt, without really adding much fat to the overall dish.
This Indian recipe can be served as a vegetarian main course, or in smaller portions as a side dish (with Tandori Chicken perhaps?). Very flavorful. Can add more cayenne pepper to taste.
