Today’s Saturday, and during this lockdown phase I had only cooked simple veggie meals so far… A simple mid week snack in the form of “aloo chips” was served to the family, and nothing fancy this week was prepared. Reason being of course, limited rationing and lack of time in hand since with no maid Didis and work from home, it was a decision we stood up to stick to… So today I decided to make Healthy Multigrain atta Egg Roll, which we would have in our breakfast. I had maida with which our usual egg rolls are made with but I decided to make it healthy by adding nutritous multigrain atta to it. Also, in our home, rarely we have entry for Bottled Sauces from markets. So, instead of sauce, I used some home made “Kasundi” or mustard sauce to enhance the flavour. Well, this recipe is a perfect balanced one in terms of nutrition as well. You get carbs, protein, fat and a dose of good minerals and vitamins from the accompanions like onion, cucumber etc
Time required to make 3 Healthy Multigrain atta Egg Roll: 45 minutes
