Mullangi/Radish Pachadi & Raita



The word Radish/Mullangi makes lot of us very unhappy L. But we don’t realize how good Radish is for our health. It’s rich in fiber and low in calorie, also a rich source of vitamin B6, copper and calcium.
We use Radish/Mullangi only in Sambar, Parata or as a Salad. Thanks to Manju Aunty who forced me to have this Pachadi and I was amazed to know this boring vegetable can be cooked so tastier. I just love this now. 

Let’s try this easy, healthy, a different variety of Mullangi Pachadi and Mullangi Raita. Absolutely no cooking J. I bet you start loving Mullangi.
