EASY WEEKLY DINNER - AUGUST 2024

Hello and Happy Friday. In today's post I am sharing the weekly dinner in Word format. Yes, in the reels and shorts world I am sharing in document format. 😁😑😊 But I like it. 

Making videos with twins is not my cup of tea, and Instagram algorithms are strange. But the most important thing is that this is my space, my diary, and whenever I look back through this diary, I see beautiful memories ❤️ memories of what we used to eat for a week? What does our weekly dinner look like? etc.

And so I started this series of sharing one weekly dinner for each month, which we actually have. Our dinner remains the same with slight differences. Whenever I feel too lazy to cook something, this blog post rescues and inspires me. With this hope, it will inspire you too (if you are Mommy) or any person struggling with dinner.

My weekly dinners are very simple, and they may be in everyone's house. I am Maharashtrian plus Malvani, so our eating habits are different. I am not sharing the full recipe, but yes, a little bit of everything. As the post title suggests easy weekly dinner means easy dinner which can be prepared in 15 to 30 minutes. I hope you will enjoy this post.

MONDAY: CHICKEN KHEEMA WITH CHAPATI 

No, we don't have Shravan, and we tend to eat non-veg food whenever we carve for it.

Chicken kheema is the easiest recipe, which can be prepared in 15 minutes. Just make sure you have to pressure cook kheema with salt and turmeric. Then the regular tadka of onions, ginger garlic paste, and some powdered masala, easy chicken kheema is ready in 15 minutes.  It tastes awesome with bun/bread. But we like to eat with chapati. 

For the Malvani version, you have (vatan): onion and coconut paste. I will share the detailed recipe soon. Stay tuned. 

TUESDAY: PANEER BURJI WITH CHAPATI

I had leftover dal fry and rice from lunch, and my daughter wanted to eat paneer. I made this paneer at home from milk, so paneer burji is the quickest recipe. When you prepare fresh paneer at home this burji tastes awesome. Onion and tomato-based burji is our family favourites.

WEDNESDAY: EGG DROP CURRY WITH STEAM RICE 

Egg curry is a staple, but this month we were having it almost after 15 to 20 days. This egg curry is not from the boiled egg. The egg was directly added to the gravy so the name is egg drop curry. In boiled gravy, you have to drop an egg and let it sit for 10 minutes. The texture of the egg is different. Again, gravy is made up of vatan, which is a mixture of fried coconut and onion. This one is an easy and quick recipe. heat the oil and add vatan with curry leaves. then goes to basic masala and salt. let it boil for 10 minutes. Now add the egg or you can break the egg directly in the gravy. do not stir and let it sit for 10 minutes. Your delicious egg drop curry is ready.

THURSDAY: SPROUTS MOONG PULAV WITH CURD AND PANEER SHALLOW FRY

I didn't feel like cooking dinner. So this pulav is the rescue. I had sprouts at home. In the pressure cooker, I gave tadka with onion and ginger garlic paste, turmeric, red chilli powder and added rice and sprouts. Pressure cook for 3 whistles,  and your pulav is ready. The main masala is Everest Shahi Biryani masala, which gives a special flavour to your plain pulav. 

Curd is mandatory in my house, especially when there is khichdi, pulav, or biryani. This time I added shallow-fry paneer. Actually, this shallow-fry paneer is my toddler's favourite dish. Daughter and Mr Hubby also demanded the same. So I made it with a little bit of spice. 

Overall, this is the best dinner in a whole week. 

FRIDAY: TAKE AWAY FOOD 

Friday is finally here. We had been at the hospital for a doctor's appointment for my twin. We order chicken gravy from the hotel and prepare some rice and roti at home. In my family, no one likes to eat naan. So I have to make chapati at home. Chicken gravy and white steamed rice are mandatory. It was Yum! 

I am a twin toddler mom. Making dinner is sometimes difficult. Still managed to feed my family healthy and easy meals.
