VangiBath

When it come to boxed lunch always some kind of rice dishes are very popular. Among those Vangi bath/ eggplant/brinjal rice is very popular rice dish. Even the powder is named after this vangibaath, though we use it to make varieties of rice dish using the same vangibath powder. Green eggplants gives a distinct flavor to the baath, we rarely get that variety here, so I am using the purple one.

Gongura Chutney

Gongura/pundi/sorrel leaves are sour tasting greens which are excellent source of vitamin C, Vitamin A and Iron. There are two varieties, green stemmed leaf which is less sour then the red stemmed variety.It contains high amount of oxalates, it may not be suitable for people suffering from or prone to kidney stones.With hot rice and spoon of ghee, the chutney is just heavenly .
