Khyati's Health-O-Meter Says:

Bottle gourd promotes weight loss. The vitamins, minerals and dietary fiber in the bottle gourd keep the body well-nourished and curb unnecessary hunger. It consists of approximately 96% of water and is, therefore, a great thirst quencher. It also prevents fatigue and keeps the body cool and refreshed during summers. Spinach is high in vitamin A, which is necessary for the growth of all bodily tissues, including skin and hair.

  • Spinach (palak) (chopped) -  20g
  • Onion (chopped) - 15g
  • Garlic clove (chopped) -  1 no.
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper powder - to taste
DIRECTIONS:
Step 1 Combine all the ingredients in a pressure cooker along with 2 cups of water and pressure cook for 3 to 4 whistles. Step 2 Allow the steam to escape before opening the lid. Step 3 Transfer the contents in serving bowls and serve hot.

Fresh coconut is a quick source of energy & it also improves digestion & absorption of nutrients. It also keeps your skin & hair healthy. Jaggery is also a good source of iron, thus good for anemic. If we neglect the number of calories, then 1 modak a day is always better than the chocolates or sweets which we get in the market.
