Mix Veg Tikkar
It's that time of the year , when the temperature in the country drops and everyone is cuddled up in the best winter-wear -sipping hot tea or coffee. This is the time when the first month of the year just slips away with all fun and frolic , celebrations and wedding season. This is the time when market is full of winter special delicacies and lots and lots of veggies and this is something which motivates a hardcore Indori like me to think of some recipes for the optimum utilization of these fresh green veggies.
Since the last couple of weeks , i am diligently experimenting in the kitchen irrespective of the erratic schedule and must admit that my passion for cooking always gives me a high .LOL.
I recently tried this Mix Veg. Tikkad recipe . Tikkad is a rajasthani bread which is usually made by mixing maize /bajra flour and wheat flour. It is thick and is made with a stiff dough minus oil or ghee. With all the veggies that i have added , the bread become wholesome , yummy and nutritious. It is bit similar to the maharashtrian thalipeeth but smaller and thicker in size.
