Phulka, Paneer bhurji, Aloo bhindi, Rice - Lunch menu 33

This north Indian thali contain phulka, dal, paneer bhurji, aloo bhindi, rice. A colorful menu with a glass of chaas and fresh strawberries to end.

After few breakfast menu, I wanted to post lunch menu too, so I clicked this meal I made yesterday.

I was feeling like having something with paneer so decided to make paneer bhurji and phulka for lunch.

But both Aj and Vj are not big fan of paneer bhurji. So made a side dish with the veggies I had in my fridge that both of them eat.

A simple dal fry to go with this menu. I had many fresh fruits and wanted to make a fruit salad, but then I just kept strawberries as it was about to get spoilt.

I finished clicking and had a hearty meal immediately. This menu is very easy, even bachelors can try this.
