Independence Day 2022: Update your menu with these tri-coloured recipes!

This year, we mark 75 years of our Independence on August 15th. Our country does not only celebrate Independence, it also owns it. Hoisting of the flag, making sweets, flying kites and many more are ways of celebrating this beautiful day. 

Here we have listed some tri-coloured recipes for your Independence Day menu this year to add some out-of-the-box tadka to the long weekend.

Give your favourite dumplings an Indian twist! Instead of keeping them plain, add some flavours and wintery ingredients for a more cheerful Independence Day 2022. Just turn the dough into three different flag colours and make the vegetarian or non-vegetarian filling of your choice.

Take the idli batter and divide it into three equal parts. Keep one part aside for the white-coloured idlis. Chop some tomatoes into chunks, cook them and red chilies for just a couple of minutes. Cool it and grind it to a smooth paste and then mix it with one portion of the batter to make the orange-coloured idlis. Do the same with coriander or mint leaves and green chili for the green-coloured idlis.

Add blanched spinach purée for green, tomato purée for orange and diced cottage cheese for the white part of the pulao. It not only tastes better, but it also makes the whole culinary affair healthier.

Here is the easiest tri-colour dish ever! For saffron - Tandoori kebabs, white - Malai kebabs and green - Hariyali kebabs.
