No maida, no yeast, no kneading—just masoor dal bread made in an air fryer! 🍞 Each serving has approximately 6–7 g protein and 5+ g fibre, making it a filling base for toast or a side for soup.

Ingredients

* ½ cup masoor dal (red lentils), soaked for 2–3 hours
* 2 tbsp homemade curd
* 2 tbsp isabgol (psyllium husk)
* 1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
* ⅛ tsp baking soda
* ¼ tsp baking powder
* 1 small garlic clove (optional)
* Salt and herbs or seasoning, to taste
* Sesame, poppy or pumpkin seeds, for topping

How to make it

1. Drain the soaked dal. Blend it with the curd, olive oil, baking soda, baking powder, salt and optional garlic until smooth.
2. Stir in the isabgol and rest for a few minutes, until the mixture becomes a thick, slightly sticky dough. If it’s too runny, add 1 tbsp besan or fine rava and rest it again.
3. Shape into small buns or one loaf. Sprinkle with seeds.
4. Air-fry at 160°C for 15–18 minutes, checking from the 15-minute mark. Let it cool before slicing.

Try it lightly toasted with tomatoes and cheese, or serve it alongside soup. Save this easy air fryer masoor dal bread recipe for your next homemade breakfast! ✨

Normal ALT & AST ≠ Always a Healthy Liver.
Fatty liver is primarily a metabolic condition and can be associated with insulin resistance, excess weight and an unhealthy lipid profile—even before liver enzymes become abnormal.

That’s why managing fatty liver goes beyond one blood report. A sustainable foundation includes:
✔️ Reducing refined carbs & added sugar
✔️ Increasing protein & fibre
✔️ Regular physical activity
✔️ Working towards 5–7% weight reduction, when appropriate

Alongside lifestyle changes, targeted liver support may also be considered.

I’ve been using Livomyn-FL by Charak, formulated with Silymarin, NAC, Resveratrol & Kalmegh to provide antioxidant and complementary liver support.

Charak has been working in Ayurveda since 1947 and is WHO-GMP certified.

✨ High-Magnesium Drink Recipe | Homemade Magnesium-Rich Seed & Nut Mix

Magnesium plays an important role in normal muscle and nerve function, energy metabolism and bone health—but are you getting enough through your everyday diet?

Here’s my creamy, wholesome magnesium-rich drink made with seeds, nuts, milk and warming spices. 🥛🌰

🌻 Magnesium-Rich Seed & Nut Mix

Ingredients:
• ¾ cup pumpkin seeds
• ¾ cup sunflower seeds
• Slightly less than ½ cup flax seeds
• Slightly less than ½ cup chia seeds
• Slightly less than ½ cup sesame seeds
• ½ cup almonds
• ⅓ cup cashews
• ⅓ cup roasted peanuts
• Cinnamon
• A little nutmeg
• Black pepper powder

Method:

Dry roast pumpkin and sunflower seeds on low heat in a cast-iron pan.

Add flax, chia and sesame seeds and roast gently. Remove and allow them to cool.

In the same pan, lightly roast the almonds, followed by cashews and roasted peanuts.

Once everything is completely cool, add cinnamon, nutmeg and black pepper and grind into a powder.

Sieve for a finer texture if you prefer, then store in a clean, dry airtight container.

🥛 To Make 1 Glass

Heat 250–300 ml milk and add 3–4 tbsp of the prepared mix + 1 tsp cocoa powder.

Whisk well and heat gently until creamy.

The cinnamon and nutmeg add natural warmth and flavour, so you may not need extra sweetness. If you prefer it sweeter, add a little honey once the drink has cooled slightly. 🍯

Save this recipe for an easy way to add more magnesium-rich foods, seeds and nuts to your everyday diet. 💚
