You will be amazed at how fish avoids heart diseases. since fish includes fatty acids which are of Omega-3 type, it prevents the arteries from getting clogged. In addition, it will be great for the teens who need calcium more than any people. Among the variety of fish, each 100 grams of salmon contains 20 grams of protein and besides it has vitamin D, calcium and Omega-3 fatty acids. The nutritious seafood will help to develop the bones and reduces the potential anemia as it will increase the gained iron remarkably. Besides, consuming fatty fish relieves the pain of joints arthritis and is recommended to those suffering from the disease.
Calorific starchy potatoes will provide the energy requirements in those who cant eat much food but their high energy needs should be met. The antioxidant vegetable is rich in beta-carotene which will convert into vitamin A. each medium-sized potato equals one bread and grain unit and contains 80 kilocalories of energy. But try to use in moderation otherwise yo will gain weight.
Garlic and green onions, though bad-smelling, are among vegetables that help to reduce the high blood pressure. Make a habit of consuming them if you are suffering from the disease. It also reduces bad cholesterol and avoids clogged arteries. consuming them habitually will avoid fungal and viral infections. Green onions reduce bad cholesterol due to their antioxidants and therefore they prevent susceptible people from heart diseases. Applying them together with fish, which protects the body itself, is a good thing.
Green bell peppers, as an antioxidant source, are rich in beta-carotene and vitamins ( 2 strong antioxidants). Make sure to apply them in raw form to reduce the destruction of vitamins. Since the vegetable is rich in fiber and consequently reduces glycemic index; so try to apply plenty of it as samosas ingredients include, thin loaves of Lavash bread, puree potatoes which are full of glycemic index and their consumption will lead to frequent hunger and low blood sugar in a short time. 1 glass of cubed raw green peppers are regarded as one vegetable unit and contain 25 kilocalories of energy. Therefore, they should n't be overused either.
What to serve with Samosas?
Serve the dish with pickled vegetables or hot sauce of course on condition that you don't deal with digestive problems. Since the food contains enough energy, it is a good idea not to serve with high-calorie spices or you will put ion weight! Apply fresh seasonal vegetables in your salad. And as drink, apply fresh lemon juice, which will help quick digestion of the food and stop you from overeating.
Staleness and unfreshness
you are advised to make enough samosas in your meals. If there are leftovers (the mixture), it is better to put it in a covered dish and freeze for later usage. If some fried samosas remain after your meal, you should refrigerate them and for another meal put them in the oven tray or inside a toaster till they become crispy again.
If you have a high blood pressure, do not apply salt at all; do not apply canned products either. Instead, steam fish only with fresh lemon juice and aromatic herbs as the mixture. Make sure to apply plenty of green onions and garlic.
If you are overweight, apply less potatoes and instead add mushrooms and celery in your mixture as they contain a very low amount of calories of energy. Besides, instead of frying samosas in oil, put them in the oven tray and cook at a mild heat until entirely crispy.
If your kids are not interested in eating, you are recommended to put high-calorie and light meals on your weekly meals. Therefore, make small, yet nutritious samosas with fish, sweet corns and green peas. To encourage them to eat, try to make crispy samosas.
