Khyati's Health-O-Meter Says:

This Bengali dish is made of mixed vegetables. Best low-calorie recipe with a lot of nutritional benefits as it contains vegetables rich in vitamins & minerals. Poppy seed's addition makes this recipe rich not only in taste but also it is a good source of minerals like calcium & zinc.
