Instant Pohe Chivda

Instant Chivda is a very simple Maharashtrian snacks recipe. I planned to make a video of my recipes, since it's festival season I thought of starting with a simple festive recipe which could be useful for people. The things that came immediately into my mind was Chivda. As we already know there are various ways of preparing chivda, a savory snack ex: using flattened rice, murmura, bundi / sev mixture, sabudana chivda to name few. I have already posted the recipe for Pohe Chivda earlier that was using thin poha. This recipe is using the same poha that we use for making kanda pohe and can be prepared easily with all the available ingredients in your kitchen.

Gajarachi Bhaji / Carrot Sabzi

This is an easy stir fry side dish can be served along with Roti / Rice. I had lots of carrots in my fridge and you must have observed my blog is filled with carrot recipes :) I usually prepare this sabzi for my kids lunch box. It's a quick option on busy weekdays lunch box menu, you need not have to preboil anything. You just need to chop the carrots finely. Again this is the recipe I learned from my sister, she is "Annapoorna" :). Give her any ingredients she will prepare a dish out of it. If she would knew the technology, definitely would be a star by now in this "online" culinary world! 

Palak Poori / Palak Puri / Spinach Poori

We have already seen a recipe for Poori bhaji, there is slight difference in this recipe. Adding spinach will make it more healthier. Ususally poori is prepared with the combination of wheat flour and multi purpose flour. But I have used multi grain flour here and that's why you can see the color difference.. You can use wheat flour alone. I had to blanch palak before using.
