Healthy Subzis

Healthy Subzis

No Indian meal is complete without one or more subzis. Whether lunch
or dinner, the subzis play important roles in balancing the meal, not
just in taste and texture but on the nutritional front too. Vegetables
are nature's gift to us - low in calories but in rich in vitamins,
minerals and antioxidants that help fight diseases. Nutritionists
suggest that we should eat at least three to five servings of
vegetables daily to fulfil our nutrient requirements.

Unfortunately, traditional methods of cooking vegetables often use
oodles of oil and unhealthy practices, drowning the goodness of the
veggies in rich gravies or too much fat. This book on â€œHealthy Subzisâ€
is a tool to avoid this! It shows you how to make a range of
nutritious, low calorie and appetising subzis, which taste fabulous
while still retaining the health benefits.

The 36 recipes in this book are clubbed into four interesting
sections: Subzis with Gravies, Subzis with Leafy Vegetables, Semi-Dry
Subzis and Subzis using Beans or Sprouts. They feature a variety of
vegetables, from the most commonly used ones like onions, tomatoes,
French beans, spinach and green peas to more uncommon ones like chawli
bhaji, red pumpkin and ridge gourd.

Unhealthy cooking practices are replaced with healthier alternatives
like steaming, roasting, baking and pressure-cooking, which are
convenient and quick methods to retain the nutrition and reduce the
amount of oil used. You will be surprised by recipes like Radish
Muthia and Green Peas Subzi and Chana Soya Masala, which are not only
healthy but also easy to prepare. In other recipes like Cauliflower
Methi and Carrot in White Gravy, the healthy twist comes about by
replacing high-calorie ingredients like full-fat milk and milk
products with their low fat counterparts.

Opting for interesting ingredients like soya, sprouts and guavas
further improves the health quotient of recipes like Peru ki Subzi and
Tendli aur Matki ki Subzi. Each recipe is also accompanied by a
nutritional value table highlighting the nutrients it contains.

Once you start trying out these recipes, you will find your cooking
style adapting favourably. Healthful cooking will soon become a way of
life, and whatever you cook â€“ not just the recipes in this book â€“ will
be wholesome and nutritious.

Cook healthily, live happily!
