Ingredients
Kids Lunch Box
- Phulka
- Dal Tadka
- Gobi Sabzi
- Plain Rice
Notes
- You can make chapathi/phulka dough the before night and store in a tupperware box to avoid color changing of the dough. Also the more resting time of the dough the more softer phulkas you will get.
- I usually store remaining chapathi dough in tupperware container and refrigerate it. And bring it to room temperature before rolling them into phulkas.
- Remove the stem, chop cauliflower into bite sized pieces and store in a clean container before day itself.
- Slightly grease phulka with ghee.
- Make sure dal is little runny while packing as dal thickens with time.

Sharmi, Love your lunchbox series.. but pls tell me if they are practical for today's school kids.. Sending 4 boxes with roti, rice, dal and veggie is so impossible, for them to eat, simply bcos they dont have so much time. Plus, mixing dal and rice on their desk is messy, and liquids are difficult to carry in a packed school van… with a swinging lunch bag…
I would really appreciate if you could give us boxes where food is in one / two boxes ( and pack more nutrition in them).. like multi protien rotis, stuffed with paneer, ( some ideas like that…) .. and can be eaten quickly in their 20 mins of break… My kids are 8 and 5, pls help!

I can understand ur plight….I am planning to post more such recipes too just with 1 main course and a veggie but I have few mothers who ask for such spread too as kids always want variety…..Usually here lunch breaks are mostly 40mins and I think 2 phulkas and a cup of rice with veggie is a nominal meal for a kid to eat in that time…
Dal isnt that runny to spill over…but still I find spillffree containers available in markets..
But I will surely consider ur request too and post easy and quick to eat recipes in the coming days…keep watching!

Hi Sharmi,
Even I kind of thought that way. This fits more for adult lunch boxes than kids lunch boxes. I would prefer mixing dal and rice and pack it in a little runny consistency(as it can thicken by lunch time). This way, small kids who can't handle mixing rice n dal can eat it easily. Also, can pack some additional dal for roti/phulka if needed in addition to gobi curry. I would say that your first post of peas pulav and gobi fry with some curd is a perfect lunch box for a small kid. Nevertheless, you're just doing an amazing job overall in sharmispassions which is highly appreciated and please keep these coming. Waiting for your new year surprise. Would like to see more pics on shamiclicks. I understand the difficulty in running P365 but these days, I haven't seen any pics there. Would like to see some random pics there too as you're an amazing photographer, cook and a blogger friend.
