Aliv or garden cress seed is a real treasure-trove of nutrients, and a must have in every kitchen. This little-known Indian food is one of the best vegetarian sources of iron, and is worth including in the diet, whether as a powder or in seed form.

This delicious Aliv Nutri Paratha is a great way to start off. With a scrumptious stuffing of paneer and coloured capsicums, it is nothing short of a mouth-watering treat.

Serve hot with Healthy Green Chutney and Low Fat Curds .

A wealth of healthy ingredients are these parathas... fibre, iron, protein, vitmain A and C are the nutrients it provides. These parathas are so sumptuous that they need no accompaniment, but you need to enjoy them hot.
