Handvo is a very famous and traditional Gujrati breakfast recipe. Authentically it's made with dal (lentils) and rice and bottle gourd (lauki) with some more vegetables.
Since it's a little long process, as you need to soak it first and then keep it for fermentation.
But this one is an instant version. It's made with suji and besan and with vegetables. I have not used lauki here, which is completely optional. This version too is very healthy and light to have.
It can be served in breakfast but I like to pack in kids school lunch box. The best part of this recipe is even after becoming cold you can enjoy it. This is one of the latest crush in my home these days. I am sure your family will love it too. Just follow the exact measurements and enjoy this healthy breakfast.
