Raw Lentils Dhokla - Oil- Free! Cook - Free!
Dhokla is the mainstay of Gujarati cuisine. Any mention of Gujarati food is incomplete without Dhokla. I have heard from those who have attended raw food workshops, conducted by BV Chouhan Saheb, about the really yummy raw dhokla that was served there. I have attempted the same thing and would like to share it with you. Needless to say it's not going to be like the dhokla we are used to which usually has a raising agent like soda or Eno salts, refined semolina/ rawa and chickpeas flour. This is made with whole soaked lentils. It is definitely worth trying. Soaked lentils consumed raw are an excellent source of nutrition.

Oil Free Rajma - wholesome & healthy
Rajma cooked in traditional Indian style in an oil-free version tastes exactly the same as the usual oil waala version! Yes, you have to try it to know it. This is now a regular at our homes, and no one can tell the difference that there is no oil in the recipe. Refined oil, an invention of modern times, is not a must from nature's point of view. Our bodies absorb oils and fats from natural whole sources such as oilseeds and nut. We hope this recipe will encourage you to try oil-free versions in daily cooking.
Recipe 
Oil free Stir fry Veggies
Adding oil to stir-fry does not have to be obligatory; it is possible not to use oil in food preparation. In fact, refined oil which is neither a health food or whole food just adds more toxic digestive load on the body. Oils and fats, though needed by the body are best to be derived from naturally available sources like nuts. We generally prefer to cook without oil or add just a dash of cold pressed oil for flavour, if at all! It just takes a couple of trials to get used to cooking without oil. Discover the oil free way to stir frying your favourite combo of veggies!
Recipe 
Oil Free Moong Dal - add body-builder foods to your mealtimes!
A regular staple in Indian homes, doing dals oil free almost feels impossible. But it is possible, and in fact that's how our ancestors cooked mostly - without refined oil. We can only assure you taste wise there is no compromise, and health wise its so much better, and lighter for your body. Here the recipe soaks the daal for sometime, and cooks it in open (the traditional) way. Of Course this retains the nutritional profile of the legume (lentil) being cooked but if you in a hurry, use the usual pressure cooker. However, do give the traditional process a try… you may just end up using this way each time you cook, with a little bit of planning.
Recipe 
Oil-free Puliyogare Mix (Tamarind rice gravy)
The famous synonym for Iyengar is Puliyogare, the most popular rice dish served in temples of the south. This popular Puliyogare Gojju/hunase gojju recipe is from my mother-in-law. All credits to her and I have just made this oil-free. Puliyogare Gojju (means gravy in Kannada that is typically made of tamarind and jaggery) is what we need to for making the Puliyogare rice dish. Puliyogare Gojju can be prepared ahead of time and can be stored in the refrigerator for more than a month if we don't use any wet spoons. Gojju can also be used as side dish to gluten-free chapatti and roti. One can mix this with rice and sprinkle some coriander and it's ready to eat. Since this is a spicy dish, it's not a good idea to have this while detoxing and it's good to limit the consumption.
