Dijon Mustard Really Enhance Taste
This leek rustic pie is not only easy to make but even better to eat. It needs just a few simple ingredients like flour, leek, onion, dry ricotta cheese and a few more basics and it comes together beautifully. Before this recipe I had never tried old-style Dijon mustard. I used it here and honestly it’s amazing. You can feel its flavour in every bite so so good!
This Is A Diabetic Friendly Recipe
I don’t eat pizza because I’m not a big fan of cheese. My husband is diabetic, so he usually avoids pizza to keep his blood sugar stable—even when he gets a craving for it. This rustic pie isn’t pizza; it is definitely a pie. But trust me, after eating this, you won’t miss pizza at all.
Okay I know it sounds a bit odd to say a pie can beat pizza 😉 but something is always better than nothing right 😁
What I really want to say is if you’re diabetic don’t worry, You can enjoy this recipe too not just one or two slices but until your tummy feels full. In this pie, I used black gram flour which is perfect for diabetic people and also protein-rich too. After this shoot you won’t believe it but my husband ate three slices of this pie for dinner.
I usually combine black gram flour and wheat flour in an 80–20 ratio to make tortillas (roti). It’s very diabetic-friendly; I make these almost every day, and my husband’s blood sugar levels always stay stable. This recipe is healthy, easy, and gut-friendly. Give it a try and tell me in the comments whether you liked it or not! 😊
