Lunch while I read food. I'll be the first to admit curry is not one of the prettiest foods out there (unlike Japanese which is visually pretty!) But curry can be quite nutritious (lean cuts, loads of potent spices) and delicious. This is something called #dahl gosht. Basically mutton/lamb is cooked in dahl (yellow split peas). It's one of my #FAVOURITE foods in the world and one that my mumsy makes on occassion. Served with golden sella #basmati rice is even better. Golden sella is parboiled rice found in Indian shops. We use India Gate brand. The rice is actually golden in colour and is higher in #resistantstarch than normal rice. And RS is #goodbacteria food! Plus being basmati it is also #lowGI (I.e. slow carb release). The #aminoacids in rice compliment the amino acids dahl = a complete protein!!! Dahl also has heaps of #dietaryfiber as well. This dahl gosht contains lots of fresh ginger as well: #immune booster. And turmeric... actually #turmeric is the most commonly used spice in Indian cooking. Instead of a #turmericlatte or shot, we eat turmeric every.single.day. twice a day. In multiple dishes. The consistent intake of this potent spice is associated with why Indian dietary intake is not usually related with chronic disease like bowel cancer. There is also a serve of garlic and turmeric cauliflower and broccoli that mum stirfries with loads of cumin seeds - for flavour. But consistent doses of spices like cumin and turmeric have a preventative health effect. Plus a serve of raw salad - different textures and more flavours and vit c that's heat sensitive. Animal Protein, complete plant protein, haem iron, resistant starch, low GI carbs, #antioxidants, loads of #fibre and #polyphenols. Yes I have a serve of red meat... But this is definitely a plant-based meal. Hands up if you'd like my mum's dahl gosht recipe and her cauliflower/broccoli. May not look pretty, but tastewise is sooo delicious and comforting and Nutritionally full marks! Thanks mum. #goodfood #mealprep #iifym #nutrition #nutritionist #eatlikeanutritionist #eatlikeadoctor #yum #plantbased #redmeat #plantprotein #wholefoods #indian #indianfood #foodispleasure
Had the chance to try out these new grain waves chip-alternatives courtesy of @socialsouphq #sunbitescollab #gifted. These "chips" are made of whole grains and about 14% sweet potato. Truthfully we couldn't taste the sweet potato. But the crunch, texture and flavour is really nice. Not very salty or powdery (from excess flavours) and not oily or greasy. I was pleasantly surprised. To be clear - chips are a great food, not an everyday food. And with friends over, this was great with the homemade dips, cheese, baby cucumbers and grapes being served. Much preferred over the tortilla chips also served... Would i buy this again? Yes - as a treat food, it's a much better offering. #keeptreatstreatwise #foodie #socialeating #foodandfriends
