PEA FLOUR PODI IDIYAPPAM
Recently I got a packet of Pea Flour from Dhatu Organics to try out. As I was wondering what to do with this amazing product, I realised I had no vegetables but only carrots in hand. An instant brain strom gave birth to this delicious recipe and I made soft and fluffy sevai or idiyappam flavoured with Idli Molaga Podi. The recipe was an innovative one and so tasty for our evening snack. As it turned out I made some more for dinner as well as it was liked by all at homePea flour has a number of health benefits. They are low in fat but high on fiber and anti-oxidants. It reuces glycemic index as well. This one was an organic sprouted green pea flour which was nicely powdered and the texture of the idiyappam was soft and fluffy. You can make any variety of sevai using this flour, but this one was spicy and tasted really good.
