Blackrice, Ladies Finger & Basil Spaghetti
Advertisement
Today I tried Black Rice spaghetti with ladies finger and basil leaves and they turned out to be real yum. Black rice spaghetti cooked is with fried ladies finger, chili, garlic and parmesan cheese. With the increase in diabetes among people it is good to move towards healthy ingredients. Black rice is good for diabetes and hence this dish can be consumed guilt free by those who wants there sugar under control. Black rice spaghetti was very light and filling. Adding them with ladies finger made the dish double yummy. You may replace this with any other spaghetti as I have done this with my regular duram wheat spaghettis earlier. Parmesan cheese is totally optional hence for vegans and weight watches it can be ignored.
