Savoury Seviyyan
This was created on a lark. Friends were having a dabba
recipes contest. A dabba is a tiffin box you pack for your husband when he goes
off to work. Fortunately I have always been able to have all three meals of the
day with my husband. I have never had to pack a tiffin for him.
So when this event came my way I had to do a literal head
scratching. What would my husband want in his packed lunch.
The only time I carried
a tiffin was when I was in college. My grand mom would make fried rice and
noodles for me. The main idea behind these two dishes was to incorporate as
much vegetables as possible.
Instead of noodles made with flour I used whole wheat
roasted Seviyyan or vermicelli. It brings a subtle difference in taste and is a
lot healthier than flour noodles.
Ingredients
2 cups vermicelli
1 onion, sliced
1 carrot, sliced fine
½ broccoli floret, sliced
1 tsp soya sauce
Salt to taste
Boil the vermicelli for 2 minutes. Wash under cold water and
then leave it to drain.
Heat some oil. Saute the sliced onions. Add the sliced
carrots and sliced broccoli. Once the vegetables are soft then take them out.
Heat
some more oil. Fry the boiled vermicelli. Add the soya sauce and season with
salt. Fry well. Add the vegetables. Your savoury saviyaan is ready.
