About One serving of sorakaya pappu
Sorakaya Pappu, a traditional dish from South Indian cuisine, is a nutritious blend of lentils (typically toor dal) and bottle gourd (sorakaya) cooked with spices. The base ingredients include bottle gourd, turmeric, green chilies, tamarind, and a tempering of mustard seeds, curry leaves, and red chilies, giving it a distinctive balance of tangy and savory flavors. Packed with plant-based protein from lentils and fiber from bottle gourd, it's both filling and beneficial for digestion. Sorakaya is low in calories and water-rich, making it a great choice for hydration and weight management. While it’s generally healthy, moderation is key if enjoying with excess ghee or oils during tempering. Often served with rice, this dish is a wholesome addition to a balanced meal and caters well to vegetarian diets.
