Lemon rice - Version 2/Lemon rice with Carrot and Black eye beans


After couple of months break,I am participating in Blogging Marathon.Entering the 3rd week of the blogging marathon 77th edition with picnic hamper theme.

For day 1,I am sharing an evergreen lemon rice with a twist.When it comes to packing some rice dishes for travel or picnic,my option would be lemon rice.As the preparation is very easy and my kids like lemon rice,I prefer to carry it for lunch.

But today's version is different one with veggies and legumes.Here I used carrot and black eye beans.As the rice has veggies and legumes there is no need of any special accompaniment for this rice.Off to the recipe..........

Cauliflower Masala/Gobi Masala - No tomato Version

Coming to day 2 recipe for the blogging marathon#62,themed under no tomato gravy is a rich and creamy cauliflower aka gobi masala. As my family loves cauliflower,so it appears in my kitchen frequently in some form.I tried this cauliflower curry without tomato and used yogurt and cashews paste.The result was such an awesome and creamy curry. The chilly powder I used was bit spicy so the curry was in the spicier side so squeezed some lemon juice in the end.So adjust the spice level according to your family preference.Lets move on to the recipe.........                                                                                                                                                                                    Cauliflower Masala/Gobi Masala                                                                         Basic Information    Preparation time 15 minutes     Cooking time 30 minutes    Serves 3(generously)
