Dear Chitra
My latest f.b. - jain corn kurma a delicious taste with subtle pepper karam. Quick and easy to make.

For the past few days I wanted to make vella dosai and finally yesterday made ragi version. Enjoyed it very much. I like to eat it plain without a side dish. Is it the same proportion for wheat vella dosai also?

Yesterday made panagam for Narsimha Jayanthi. It is snowing here but still enjoyed the panagam.

Being a lover of mango tried mango badam kheer with mango pulp. Truly wonderful taste and so yummy.
Want to try the foccasia and other bread receipes soon. Please post the fig and date bread. It is tempting.

With so many following behind you can go miles and miles more.

With Best regards
shubha

dearest chitra mami

today was a very long and interesting day.. my kid wakes up at 6.00 on the weekends bcoz he is afraid that we are going to waste all weekend sleeping.. :rotflso we did a whole lot of stuff today (tennis, swimming, farmer's market, gardening, more tennis, shopping and a lot of cooking)

just as i was about to obfy the lunch with frozen rasam, DH said lets make vadai :idea .. with only 20 mins to spare for lunch we needed a quick vadai and i remembered reading one such recipe earlier so researched the vadais section and did the Maddur Vada. wow one super easy and so so tasty vadai. fp did all the kneading. the vadais came soft and crispy on the outside, i have frozen the extra batter for later.

one more fb - long time on my todo - eggless milkpowder cake .. did it as a cupcake. super super tasty, soft, fluffy cake. i did with white whole wheat flour. could not believe that i was having the cake and eating it too. thx for the recipes and luvs
shyamals.

 

Dear Chithramma,

heart-felt thanks for the omam kuzhambu recipe. it barely has oil and all naattu marundhu. even while grinding i knew this would be a repeat since DH doesn't take pickles and he's sadly left with some bland tasting vege for curd rice. he loves these kind of kuzhambus, puli inji. today's lunch very traditional - lemon rasam and vazhakkai thengai potta kari. all using less than 1 tsp oil. nanna sapittum thookam asathalai

also made khoa to make mango kulfi. FB will follow as always.

oh how can i forget this - y'day for breakfast made k.paniyaram. i kept the frozen maavu in fridge overnight to thaw. wonderfully fluffy paniyarams with tomato chutney.
