I'm really craving Gobi Manchurian, but I'm pregnant now. Main soch rahi hoon, if it's safe to eat during pregnancy, especially with all the sauces and spices.
I totally understand those intense spicy cravings, they are so hard to ignore! You can definitely have a little bit of homemade Manchurian to satisfy your heart. Just keep the spices mild so it doesn't cause bad heartburn later.
I love Chinese food too, but I've read that outside Manchurian often has MSG and food colors which aren't great. If you are craving it, maybe try making it at home with clean ingredients. It's safer and tastes just as good!
Beta, outside food should be avoided because cabbage needs to be washed very carefully to remove germs. If you really want to eat it, ask someone at home to make it cleanly. Add ginger and garlic to help with your digestion.
Yes, you can surely enjoy it in moderation! 😋 Just try to make it at home so you can control the hygiene and spices. Avoid outside food as much as possible to stay safe from infections.
I felt so tempted to order street food all the time, but I restricted myself to eating only from very clean restaurants. Having mild, home-cooked gobi manchurian is much better to avoid stomach upset. Trust me, stomach issues during pregnancy are not fun.
I had major cravings for Chinese food during my pregnancy, but my doctor advised avoiding roadside stalls because of hygiene. Homemade gobi manchurian is much safer, especially since digestion is slow. Just make sure it's cooked well.
