Parsely salad:
-------------

Parsely - 1 bunch, Remove the stem and clean the leaves , finely chopped.
Onion - 1 (finely chopped)
Tomato - 1 Remove pulp, finely chopped
Garlic - 2 cloves finely chopped
Otherwise, u can chop all the above ingredients in the chopper.
Broken Wheat - 1 tblsp (soak for 1 hour) and strain.
Instead of broken wheat we can also use brown rice soak for 1 hour , strain and coarsely grind in the mixer without water.
Mix all the ingredients and keep in the fridge. Before serving, in a small container add 1 tblsp of olive oil, little salt,little pepper powder, 1 tsp of lemon juice. Close the container shake nicely so that all the ingredients will mix nicely, then add this to the parsely mixture,
This is so healthy and the taste is too good.

Three bean salad:
----------------
Soak and boil White chana, black eye beans, kidney beans separately with a salt.
Take one full hand of each beans
tomato - remove pulp and cut in to small cubes.
cucumber - 1 cut into cubes
mix all the ingredients. No need of salt coz dhals are cooked with salt. just to add a flavour, we can add the herb thyme. Just sprinkle thyme on the top. Olive oil is optional.Mix nicely and serve.
This is a meal in the night. This is very healthy, nice proteins are there, so it will keep us away from the hunger. One bowl of salad and a glass of buttermilk is enough for the dinner. This is good for the weight watchers.

Hi kugan,
i had given 2 salads, please try this. Generally we dont do dressing for the salad for regular basis. For the party i do dressing without cream. If we need , then i prefer only lemon juice, salt - a pinch, olive oil.

Soups i will write at the earliest.

Kugan,

I badly want to make chicken rice. Please help me post the recipe if you have. Have also heard of Nasi Ayam Pengyet? Its Malay Chicken rice but they will deep fry the chicken and smash . It goes along with sambal chilli.
