Quick-Fix healthy Dinner

So its was again a normal Saturday... I mean a lazy day of weekend...want to feel relaxed, no burden of taking early shower, rushing for train/bus.. sometimes a heavy breakfast will suffice for lunch too.. and you get into quilt, making calls to India, or watching movies back to back whole day.. and then suddenly you realize the clock showing 9:30 pm... the lunch was skipped and even no dinner planned yet.. I hate that situation.. !! Now what next ??? eat bread, drink milk and sleep.. !!  or self motivation to make something fulfilling..  well I was successful atlast and here is the outcome of my experiment...



For Fish roast you need.. 
1. Fish piece cut and cleaned (Any fish will do.. )
2. 1 tea-spoon red chilli powder
3. 1/2 tea-spoon turmeric powder
4. salt as per taste
5. vinegar

Make a thick paste of red chilli powder, turmeric powder, salt with vinegar (no water), and coat the fish piece with it and keep in refrigerator for marination (min 15 minutes)

Take a non-stick pan and heat 1 tea-spoon oil..once the oil is hot enough add few mustard seeds and put fish piece in it.. cook both the sides on a low flame turning the fish occasionally until its cooked and crispy. it will take approx 15-20 minutes.


Once the fish is done, take it out from the pan. The left out mixture and oil in pan can be used to add flavor to rice. You can put the steamed cooked rice in the pan and mix well.


For Veg pan-cake you need
1 egg - nicely beaten
1 green chili chopped
1/4th tea-spoon turmeric powder
Chilli powder as per taste
1/2 cup spinach and 1/2 cup frozen peas mix together, cooked in microwave for 2 minute and mashed.
black pepper powder 1/4 teaspoon 
3 teaspoon gram flour (or any other lentil flour..)
salt as per taste





Mix all the ingredien in a bowl and prepare a normal consistency batter.. heat 1 teaspoon oil in a pan and once the oil is hot add some mustard seeds and cumin seeds and then pour the batter and spread it evenly on the pan with spatula....cook it for 3-4 minutes on low flame and turn it up side down and cook it for 2 minutes again.




 

And its done .. 

You can eat this with yogurt or any chutney.. complement this with some steamed vegetables or fresh cut salad... !!
