Fasting season can be tricky, because it’s hard to remember what you can eat and what you can’t. Here are some faraal recipes that will make life a little easier for you. Don’t worry, they’re healthy, but they still taste great!

1. Sabudana Khichdi (Microwave Recipe)




Ingredients

• 1 cup sago (sabudana)
• 1/2 cup roasted peanuts, crushed
• 2 medium potatoes, cubed
• 1/2 tsp cumin seeds (jeera)
• 2 green chillies, slit
• 2 tbsp oil
• Salt to taste

Method

• Wash the sago. Drain it and keep it aside for about 2 hours. If necessary, sprinkle a little water on it to keep it moist.
• In a glass bowl, combine the oil, cumin seeds, green chillies and potatoes. Cover it with a lid and microwave on it high heat for 2 minutes, until the potatoes are tender.
• Add the soaked sago, peanuts and salt and mix well. Cover with a lid and microwave on high heat for another 2 minutes.
• Serve hot with yoghurt or green chutney (recipe below).
