Parwal with Fennel and Almonds

You will need:

  • 2 small parwal
  • 1 tbsp ghee (clarified butter)
  • 1 tsp whole fennel seed
  • 6-8 almonds, soaked in hot water, blanched and slivered
  • Rock salt to taste

Wash and scrape parwal and cut off and discard both ends.

Dice parwal into 1/2" pieces and steam for about 15-20 minutes until fork tender.

Heat the ghee in a pan until it is clear.

Add the fennel seed and almonds and sauté briefly to release the aroma of the fennel.

Add the parwal and salt to taste, mix well and sauté for another 2-3 minutes.

Serve hot with Basmati rice or other whole grain.

Ghee: The Golden Cooking
Oil of Ayurveda

Ghee is the cooking oil of choice in ayurveda. It is made by cooking butter to remove all the milk-solids and water, so that what's left is a pure golden oil with a royal flavor and aroma. Once you have cooked with ghee, you'll never go back to using oil or butter again! Ghee can be used for sautéing, stir-frying, deep-frying, baking, for popcorn, or as a spread. It's so flavorful that you'll need much less ghee than butter or other kinds of oil.
