Metkut |
It is an excellent appetizer. Freshly steamed rice, a pinch of salt and a spoonful of ghee with metkoot at breakfast is not only appetizing but also builds immunity level.
Ingredients of metkoot :
Split chickpeas (Chana dal) - 1 bowl
Split black gram lentils, dehusked (Urad dal) - 1/2 bowl
Rice (Chawal / Tandul) - 1/2 bowl
Wheat (Gehu /Gahu) - 2 tbsp
Fenugreek seeds (Methi dane) - 10
Cumin coriander powder
Black pepper
Salt, Red chili powder, Asafoetida, Turmeric
Recipe of Metkut :
- Dry roast each of the ingredients. Keep on stirring so it won't get burnt. The light brown colour is just enough.
- Grind all to powder.
- Add cumin coriander powder, black pepper, salt, red chili powder, asafoetida, turmeric while grinding.
- Turmeric gives nice yellow colour.
This is a storable recipe as a dry chutney. Adding little curd tastes even better.
Metkoot can be added to chivda or pohe.
I have written a recipe about Thalipeeth bhajani. Metkut and another dry chutney Udid Dangar can be prepared simultaneously while making thalipith bhajni.
Steamed rice, creamy curd and metkut makes a delicious quick dish.
