    Hi krishnamma
    U've done a great job. very very useful to everyone who is living in places other than their hometown.
    small correction:
    in Tamil 1 u've given for Banana-vazhaikizhangu but Banana(unripe) - Vazhaikai; Banana(ripe) - Vazhaipazham.
    in Tamil 2 u've written Black Gram-Uluthamparuppu But Black Gram - Ulundhu & Black Gram(split) - Uluthamparuppu.
    Regards.
    chitra

    HI Bujji,

    Masoor dal means red lentils. like thur dal, you can use this to make sambar, rasam and dal. ok ya? in Tamil they call it as Masur paruppu.
