Having a well balanced meal everyday is crucial to keep the body and mind healthy and happy. Today's meal is inspired from the various colors and taste that is necessary to be included into our everyday diet.

According to the Ayurveda, we should be consuming six forms of tastes everyday, namely - sweet, sour, salty, hot, bitter and astringent. All these six different tastes should be balanced for the optimum health of our body.

Serve this along with phulkas and side of salad.
