             Hello friends.hope you all enjoyed your weekend..wishing you all a great week ahead.Coming to this recipe,Getting bored with sundal for a change made this Tikki with brown beans n black eye peas.I made this in hurry so not able to cook this tikki with patience...just like that i prepared fast n presented fairly.As my kids were goin to their swim class for the past 2 weeks so evening  i don't find time to spend in kitchen.some how i managed ..thats the reason..my previous post also don't have step wise or enough preparation pictures.
But the recipes are so simple, easy n yummy.Brown beans n black eye peas are rich in proteins,fiber,calcium n other  minerals too.My kids are not fond of sundal but they had more than 2 tikkis ..was so happy .So u also try to feed legumes in an interesting way like this ...Try this !!!
