HOW I PREPARED THIS MENU
For this menu,there is no soaking part and chopping is also very less.
- I chopped onion,tomato,green chillies and taken all the other ingredients required for making Dal tadka in a pressure cooker base.Added enough water,salt.To this,i washed and kept 3 big potatoes halved into two for making aloo methi.I pressure cooked both at the same time.It took nearly 15 minutes to get cooked.
- In another cooker,i prepared jeera rice.I din’t soak the rice and i used jeera rice with water ratio of 1:2.
- Then i made the dough for gujia.As the dough needs a standing time of 30-45 minutes,i prepared the stuffing in the mean time & kept them covered.
- While the dal and jeer rice cooker steam gets released, i removed methi leaves from the stem,washed and kept immersed in water adding salt and little sugar.I chopped onions and ginger bits and kept aside in a plate.
- By this time,dal with potatoes and jeera rice would be ready.I removed the jeera rice in a bowl and kept plain rice for mixing with dal tadka & curd.
- Then I took the potatoes out,washed & peeled the skin.I mashed the dal very well.I did seasoning for the dal,checked for salt and kept dal tadka ready.
- Then i prepared aloo methi.It took 10 minutes.
- Next i prepared paneer butter masala.I boiled tomatoes for blanching.In the mean time,i cut the required paneer and grated 1/4 cup for kheer and kept aside.PBM takes hardly 10 minutes to prepare.
- Then i prepared paneer kheer (recipe to be posted) and kept in freezer to chill down quickly.It takes 5-10 minutes.
- I prepared masala dahi raita.It takes just 3 minutes to prepare.Whisk the curd for lassi adding salt or sugar.Set aside.
- Now Gujia outer cover would be ready to roll & fill the stuffing.I prepared & kept it covered till i rolled poori.
- Lastly i made the dough for poori.As u all know,poori dough should not be prepared earlier as it absorbs more oil.I rolled the poori,spreaded in a news paper and covered with another paper to prevent drying.
- I kept oil in a kadai for deep frying and i deep fried gujias first.After u fry gujias,the heatness of oil will be more.So now u can deep fry the pooris.Drain everything in a tissue.
- Last but not the least,roast the store bought papad in direct flame.
In a plate,arrange all the dishes and and serve !
Enjoy this Holi Special Lunch Menu with your family
