As we all know that Corona-virus (COVID-19) has created an extraordinary health crisis around the world. The World Health Organization (WHO) has already declared it a pandemic. Our governments are tirelessly working to control the outbreak and people are being advised to stay at their homes. We should pay attention to Government and WHO advisories to safeguard our health and the health of your loved ones.

What should we do to stay safe

Among all other precautions to minimize the chances of contact with disease, eating food outside your home should be avoided. To be more specific, avoid restaurant food and eat well cooked homemade meals. Besides we should ensure hand hygiene by washing our hands with soap or other recommended products.

Moreover, we should all keep ourselves aware of the latest information on the COVID-19 outbreak. WHO is doing the wonderful job and updating important information on their website WTO.int. Please visit the website and share information with all so that we can all fight this together.

This is a high time we all should help and support each other. As we may also face lock downs imposed by government, we should look for ways to eat healthy homemade food.

Having all said, it is time to share Potato Triangles recipe which is very easy and fun to make. You can serve it with tomato or other sauces with evening tea.

The recipe is very simple and easy to make. Split Bengal and Urad Lentil are its primary contents. Both have known health benefits. Split bengal gram is a protein-rich supplement and is a popular alternative for animal or meat protein. Urad Lentil contains high quantities of fibre, magnesium and potassium and is extremely beneficial for our heart health.

So if you have not tried Laddu Peethi yet. Or, you have not visited Lahore and desire to taste the famous street food at home. Then try this easy recipe.
