Description

Foodnwellness brings to you the splendid flavours of Karnataka with our one-pot meal recipe of Bisibelebath. It is not only a healthy dish prepared usually with white rice (Brown rice,  Quinoa or Millets like Barnyard millet can also be used to further enhance the health benefits), Toor dal (Lentils), a mix of vegetables and a blend of herbs and spices to make this into a delectable treat.

In this recipe, we will be substituting white rice with Quinoa to enhance the overall protein profile of the dish. Quinoa is a gluten-free grain, although technically a seed which is high in Protein, fibre and antioxidants.
