#tiffinboxseries

 Since a few of you asked - what I pack for school breaks, making this Tiffinbox series :). Being 2 most important meals of the day, I try making combinations in such a way that it has lot of vegetables, curd plus at least 1 fibre element of fruits or raw vegetables. Have made a few categories in terms of dishes and food combinations. Will try to share all one at a time. Today's breakfast+lunch category is: 

Mix flour chillas and fulka + dry vegetable fry: 

Bfast - Mix flour (Horsegram flour+Maize flour+Besan+Rawa) chilla with lots of coriander leaves, crushed curry leaves(mom's tip:)) with raw mango chutney called Methamba 

Lunch - Fulka + Bhendichi bhaaji (Bhindi ki sabji/ Bendikai palya/Okra fry) + Cucumber raita 

This is my go-to combination on a Monday morning or after holidays or days when I couldn't do the prep well earlier night. Easy to prep, highly nutritious and minimal cooking time.

Add a generous portion. - I try to go beyond cucumber, tomato for curd based raitas.

Grate raw radish/carrot, cori.leaves, add curd, cumin pwd, salt,

  #Tiffincategory05 - non-fermented batters + frankie/rolls This last category, which is again a big help in our daily kitchen routine is, batters from overnight soaked grains, pulses and legumes. In the frame is Pesarattu dosa, which is whole green moong dosa with lemon sweet pickle sent by Advay's grandma. I added some onion & grated carrot from yesterday on it with chutney podi (south indian dosa chutney powder) on one dosa for variety.  Frankie is the only allowed junk in my tiffinroutine :D. And today's is not even frankie, it's poli bhaaji (chapati sabji/palya) roll. If I want to make the "frankie" frankie, which is once in a quarter :D, I roll slightly bigger chapati, smear ghee, green chutney, then in the center in a line shredded raw cabbage, capsicum, corn and tossed paneer to the roti, tomato ketchup and roll it into a frankie, roast it on a pan with butter, cut it into half to pack it in the box. I make the roti sabji roll more often than this fran
