Tori/turai/gilki is a healthy vegetable but many of us don't like to eat it, specially kids. Generally we make its sabzi. I have made it with slightly variation in its chopping. Here below is full recipe of its bhartha/bhurtha:

1 tsp of turmeric powder
1 tsp of cumin seeds

1 tbsp of coriander powder
1/2 cup of frozen peas (otional)
1 big onion (finely chopped)
Paste of 3 tomatoes
1 tbsp of grated ginger
1 finely chopped green chili
1 small tomato for garnishing
Method
1. Peel the torai and cut it roughly in big chunks and then chop it very finely in vegetable chopper. For this, see the photo collage below.
2. Heat the oil in a frying pan. Though I have written 5 tablespoon of oil, but in 1 tbsp of oil it can be made too.  Add hing and cumin seeds and let it crackle till it stops itself.  Now put bay leaves, cloves and  cinnamon stick and stir. Putting bay leaves,cloves and cinnaman stick is optional.  
3.  Add finely chopped onion and ginger and make it translucent  or very light brown.
4.  Now add tomatoes paste, turmeric, salt, red chili powder and coriander powder and cook it till oil separates.
5. This is the time to put very finely chopped turai and stir.
7. Cook it on slow heat for few minutes till oil can be seen around the sabzi. After that add peas and stir.  Again cook for few minutes. 
8. For garnishing finely chopped cilantro, tomato strips and green chili can be added too.
9.  Delicious turai ka bhurtha is ready to serve.

Meetha puda/chilla is a rustic sweet dish.  It is generally made on a rainy day. As it has been raining since yesterday, therefore, I thought of making sweet chilla with multi grain flour. It turned out very well and crispy too.  Here below is its full recipe:
Ingredients
1 cup of multi grain flour
1/2 cup of sugar
1 cup of water
1 tsp of soanf
oil for frying
Method
1. First soak the sugar with one cup of water.  After some time dissolve it completely with spoon.
2.  Now take multi grain flour in a big bowl and sugar water slowly and make batter of dripping consistency. It should not be too thick nor too thin.  If little bit more water is needed, add to it and mix it.
3.  Add soanf and mix. 
4.  Now keep it rest for 10 minutes.
5.  Heat a non stick pan or tava.  Apply oil to it. Put one or two ladle on slightly heated tava and spread it with the back of ladle in round shape. Pour oil around the puda with spoon.
6.Keep the flame medium.  When it seems little bit dry from one side, turn it to other side with sharp edged spatula. Apply oil to it and cook it one medium flame till it is done.
7,  Remove from tava and serve it hot.
Enjoy Healthy cooking!!!

Momos/dimsum/wanton is a very healthy snack.  It is made in Nepal, Bhutan and china etc. It has become street food in India. It is eaten steamed or fried with very spicy chutney.  Here below is its full recipe:
Ingredients
2 cups of all purpose flour/maida
1/2 tsp of salt
2/3 cup of water
4 cups of finely chopped cabbage
1.5 cups of grated pumpkin or carrot
1 cup finely chopped green onion leaves
1 finely chopped onion
1 tsp of grated ginger
1/2 cup of finely chopped cilantro
1/2 cup of grated cottage cheese or tofu (optional)
1 tsp of sugar salt to taste
1 tsp of light soy sauce
1 tsp of dark soy sauce
1 tsp of black pepper powder
2 tbsp of oil
Method
1. Take maida/All Perpose Flour and salt in a  big bowl.  Make a soft dough with 2/3 cup of water.  This much water is sufficient for 2 cups of maida. Smooth it with little bit or generously greasy hands.  Now keep it rest for 10 minutes covering with wet cloth.  On wet cloth
2.  Finely chop the cabbage in vegetable chopper.  Grate the pumpkin or carrot. Finely chop the spring onion leaves with knife. Spring onion white bulb and onion can be chopped in chopper too.
3.  Take the chopped cabbage, ginger and pumpkin/carrot in a cloth and squeeze out all the water from it.

4.  Take 2 tbsp of oil in a frying pan. Add onion and cook it for few minutes till translucent. After that add cabbage and pumpkin or carrot. Next add salt, sugar, black pepper powder and both the soy sauces and stir well. Flame should be high. Dry the water while stirring. Remove from heat.  Now add green onion leaves and cilantro and mix. Stuffing is ready.
5. Divide the dough into 25 pieces.  If making bite size, then divide it into 45 to 50 pieces.  Now make the balls out of it by rounding between both the palms.
6.  Now roll one ball and stuff the 1.5 spoons of vegetables while making its pleats. Make it any shape. Roll and stuff all the dough balls like wise. 
7.  Next boil the water in rice cooker or any other pot.  Put the momos/ dimsum on a greased steam basket with little distance.  Keep it on the boiling water in rice cooker and close the lid.
8.  Steam it for 6-7 minutes till transparent. After steaming let it cool completely so that we can fry it.
9. Heat oil in a frying pan/karahi.  Fry all the steam momos in medium hot oil.
10. Fried momos/dimsum are ready to serve. These are served very hot.
Tips
1. Vegetables can be used of one's choice.  Generally cabbage and carrot are used.  But here I have used pumpkin. 
2. It can be steamed in any pot  e.g pressure cooker, rice cooker steamer etc.  Here I have steamed in steam basket on rice cooker.  It can be kept on momos plate on a rack.  Momos plate is a plate with holes.
3.  If making it in advance, Keep it in a tray and cover it with slightly wet cloth then wrap the tray with cling film. Then cover with any other big tray. Keep it in the refrigerator.  Fry in medium hot oil till crisp.
Enjoy Healthy cooking!!!
