Vangeebath
Vangeebath or Brinjal Rice (keto/low -carb)
Vangeebath or Brinjal rice , is a traditional, authentic karnataka delicacy, served either for breakfast or for lunch.
In this post, I added an easy to make no grain brinjal rice or vangeebath , prepared with riced cauliflower and vegetables . When it served with hung curd or greek yogurt raitha, it tastes absolutely delicious.
