PULKA (WITH GREEN LEAFY VEGETABLES)

I am again here for giving every one another a healthy recipe and which I eat regularly now a day. This dish is part of my diet food.

When I went to a dietician for asking what I should have for reducing my weight then he advised me that I should avoid eating rice, fried items and sweet. He asked me to include wheat and oats as main course and he also asked me to have leafy vegetables almost every day. Looking at me my husband also decided to go for diet plan but he is very choosy about food. He normally does not like leafy vegetables to eat every day. So I was thinking how to give him leafy vegetables in different way. Here is my first attempt in which I got 100% success.
