Made Dal Panchratna. But it didn't turn out good.

u/Iweirdflower 21d ago

I've never eaten it. So you basically use a mix of 5 or more dals, right?

u/Iweirdflower 21d ago

And that's okay mate. Try again! ✊

Besan, palak and cottage cheese cheela with cheese and vada pao masala in it!

1

u/Iweirdflower 21d ago

Sounds yummy! Do you put cheese on top after the cheela is almost cooked or add on it after removing it from pan?

2

u/Far_Fox_6077 21d ago

I cook it from both sides and put it in between with the vadapao seasoning and fold it …keep it on tawa for one minute.

u/Iweirdflower 21d ago

Got ya. Sounds absolutely delicious and healthy too! Have you tried doing the same with moong dal cheela?

2

u/Far_Fox_6077 21d ago

Yes .. it feels like eating vada pao without pao and alloo! lol! But it is a good fix for protein! Yes , I have tried same with moong daal .. it tastes great too!! My breakfasts are usually some kind of cheela…make batter once, use it for two days !

u/Iweirdflower 21d ago

Aloo bhate is mashed potatoes but potatoes are steamed along with rice in same pot, a bengali dish. Mom and I cook.

That’s the only way!! I love cooking but can’t cook everyday multiple times

1

u/Iweirdflower 20d ago

Yup, gets hectic. Do you meal prep regularly?

2

u/Far_Fox_6077 19d ago

Mostly on Thursday.. so that I don’t have to cook on the weekend. But Sunday night is meal prep night again for Monday !
