Notes

  • Nannari Sarbath is the sweetener I am using in chia pudding and pomegranate Sarbath.  You can substitute your preferred sweetener like jaggery, honey, sugar syrup, agave, or any artificial sweeteners.
  • If you are preparing the paratha/chapathi earlier, keep them in a hot case. Serve once all the dishes are ready.
  • Only add salad dressings before serving the salad to avoid the soggy salad.
  • You can alter the vegetables according to your preference/taste in the salad.
  • Add orange for a refreshing salad.
