MUTHIRA ARACHU KACHI | മുതിര അരച്ചു കാച്ചി | MASHED AND STEWED HORSE GRAM | PADMINI ANTHARJANAM

Описание: The food habits of Keralites in the olden times were based on the Ayurvedic system. There are many do’s and don’ts in the Ayurvedic eating method. Some foods are avoided during certain seasons. Some foods are known to generate heat. Such foods are avoided during summer. Horse gram is one such food. It generates heat. As a result, it is ideally suited for the chilly weather like the monsoon. As it is the monsoon time, let us prepare a stew with horse gram. My mother, Srimati Padmini Antarjanam, an expert in traditional cooking, will show you the preparation of a delicious stew with horse gram.
Horse gram has many health benefits as well. It is used to treat fertility problems in women. A concoction made with raw horse gram and some herbs is given to women suffering from the problem of irregular periods. But Ayurveda says that horse gram should not be given to people suffering from urinary stones, pregnant women etc.
Nowadays it is difficult to follow the Ayurvedic lifestyle. Ayurveda stresses on consuming local and seasonal foods. Now most of the traditional foods have disappeared from our tables due to the lack of availability of ingredients. People are after convenient and artificially flavoured packaged food. Nobody has the time or the patience to grow their own food. Many people have moved into apartments and hence there is a space constraint in growing vegetables. People are compromising their health for convenience. Through this channel, we want to show the preparation traditional recipes, some of which are easy to prepare. We also aim to educate you about the benefits of traditional food. We hope that everyone will switch to healthy food habits by watching this channel.
