MEC: Healthy diet food event announcement
Srivalli's very popular event MEC comes to Simple Indian food blog this month..
Microwaved food has gained popularity over the years for ease in cooking and reheating. But the highlight remains that it requires less oil and spices for cooking. And this is most helpful for dieters and in general for all those who try to make food healthier..Keeping this in mind, this month's theme for MEC event is Healthy Diet Food. Try to cook your regular food or any special diet food with your microwave so as to reduce the oil/fat content and spice content- making it much healthier than the way you are used to eating it.
There is no restriction on which part of the meal you would want to cook..however it must be done in the microwave and not the stove top..You would be free to use other electrical gadgets but cooking has to be mandatory done with your microwave..
To start off- masala peanuts made in microwave instead of frying, sweets like kesari/sheera can be made with much lesser ghee in microwave and so on..you can try out dishes that can be baked or grilled instead of stove top method that may require frying in any form...
