Event Announcement - Healthy Recipe Hunt - 1

Dear fellow bloggers, I am very happy to announce "Healthy Recipe Hunt" event. I am fan of healthy recipes which are both tasty and nutritious. I am planning to conduct this event every month with varying themes. For this month the theme of the event is Rice Flakes.

  

Flattened rice (also called beaten rice) is a dehusked rice which is flattened into flat light dry flakes. These flakes of rice swell when added to liquid, whether hot or cold, as they absorb water, milk or any other liquids. The thicknesses of these flakes vary between almost translucently thin (the more expensive varieties) to nearly four times thicker than a normal rice grain.

Rice flakes are normally used to prepare snacks or light and easy fast food in a variety of Indian cuisine styles, some even for long-term consumption of a week or more. It is known by a variety of names: Poha[1]  or Pauwa[2]  in Hindi.

Beaten rice  is a staple breakfast diet especially in rural and semi-urban areas. It is a low cost wholesome food with good nutritional value. It can be taken in different forms - raw, fried, with curd or milk and therefore has mass appeal. Its preparations can be made at a short notice and hence it is also a convenient food item. Beaten rice is made from paddy and is popular in all parts of India. People of all age groups from all sections like it and thus it is a mass consumption item.
