Whenever I see Dill weed (Suva) in the local farmer's market, I get a strange sense of familiarity. I feel drawn towards this wonder weed(herb)!! So I googled on this weed and found so many interesting facts that I thought I should try making something with Dill. Thats when I saw a recipe called besan omlette in some blog (Sorry, I can't recollect which blog it was). Today I was scrambling in the kitchen to make some breakfast mentally going through the contents of the refrigerator. When I saw dill lying there to be experimented on, I thought of the eggless omlette and so I tweaked the original recipe by adding Dill in it. Here's how I made it..
Also one of my friends, makes rasam out of dill and she says that it is good for women during pregnancy and also postpartum. It has a very good anti-gas property and anti-colic, Also is a good source of Iron and Calcium. Tea made with dill seed is supposed to be insomnia reliever and a hiccup reliever.
Ingredients -
Chickpea flour / Besan 1 cup
Onion Finely Chopped 1/2 cup
Method Of Preparation -
Makes 8 omlettes
