Methi Dhal Koshimbir ( Diabetic Recipe )

What do you get when you add up taste and good health, plus more taste and more good health, and more, and more? You leave the diners asking for more! And that is precisely the effect this side-dish is likely to achieve. This is a special snack recommended for diabetics, as methi has soluble fibres that help in regulating blood glucose levels and also expel extra cholesterol from the body.




To mellow down the taste of methi, which everybody may not relish, I have added moong dal, cucumber and sugar (just ½ tsp though!) you can also add pomegranate seeds and tomatoes to vary the taste.
