Fenugreek Seeds Tambli | Menthe Tambuli

Truth: All the family members sitting round the circle and devouring food is the key to improve  bonding between each other.

Let me figure out whether it’s an achievable scenario…

BREAKFAST: Mornings are usually of hectic schedule for everyone. Children and men set their alarm to get to their destinations in time. If you are a homemaker your day would have started an hour before for breakfast making and packing lunch. And if you are an employee too,  dressing up yourself in professional clothes and packing for self would require an extra hour. So family food time is beyond the bounds of possibility.

LUNCH: Obviously every one would have gulped on their own. And no question of family eating.

When it comes to DINNER, I would suggest everyone to accompany their family at the dining table. It helps to develop bonds and interpersonal relationships with each other.

Today I am posting a diabetic recipe which I devoured with my family amidst chit chat and laughter last night. A simple, mild and very healthy fenugreek seeds tambli is a routine comfort food at my house. Fenugreek seeds are said to contain fiber and other chemicals that slow down digestion and the body’s absorption of carbohydrates and sugar. The seeds may also help to improve the way the body uses sugar and increase the amount of insulin released.

Fenugreek seeds+red chillies+coconut+buttermilk= Fenugreek seeds tambli, with hot steamed rice eaten at your own table at your own house with your regular people is the best way to relish food.
