    I passed on your wishes to Appa & Amma. Thanks a lot.

    Dear Chithra
    I made Mukkala Pappu for lunch with rice. Tasted so good.
    Also made Kovakkai Bhath . Enjoyed it with raitha . Made potato roast according to your recipe. Super crispy potatoes. we cant beat the combo of potato roast and vengaya sambar.
    I made the dosai with kichadi parrupu which you have given. forgot the name. It came out soo soft and had it with MW jiffy tomato thokku.
    Thank you for everything you do.

    Love
    Shobana

    Dear Hridhaya,
    a tip, I follow now.
    Soak & wash thoroughly the arbis. Cut into smaller (curry size) pieces & pressurise in plenty of water for one whistle.
    Then wash well again, peel & proceed. This way, you remove maximum starch from arbis!!

    Oh, Shobana, series of FBs!!:thumbsup
    Yes, for me, chole-bathura, rajma-chawwal etc cannot come near the combo of potato roast and vengaya sambar. Perhaps, I am a deep rooted Southie!!
    These pappus tempt us to gorge on rice + ghee :-(

    Dear Chitvish,

    The golden brown roast dosa is a crispy dosa & paired well with korda as you had suggested. I was able to spread it thinly & We had extra dosas.

    Thanks to you, I have tried so many varieties of dosas & we are enjoying the wonderful variety.

    Love & Regards,
    Kate.

    Dear C,

    Made Lapsi Pongal (wheat Rava) for Breakfst, paired with Mullangi Smabhar. Lunch is Phulka, Mullagi Sambhar and MW Palak Paneer. MW Palak Paneer is jiffy and sooooo easy to make. As I had the Palak Puree ready it was ready in flat 6-7 minutes. Thanks sooooooooo much for the easy recipe.

    Its almost 2-3 weeks since I baked biscuits. Planning for chocolate Nankhattai this time. Will come back to you with the feedback. M has asked for Pizza to this weekend, icecream is also there in the plan. Will come back as how they all turned on Monday :thumbsup

    Dear mami,

    Yesterday night I made rava dosa using your first recipe(rava + rice flour).
    For a novice rava dosa maker, it was a great success and not one dosa torn off the pan. Hats off to your accurate measurements. They came out crispy. I have attached 2 photos to show you how it turned out. It is certainly not as good as your dosas but I am sure I can get there soon.Hope you would give me pass mark.

    The pan I have is bulged in the center and square in shape. But I didn't struggle hard to turn the dosas(unlike previous attempts). your recipe saved my evening as I had refused my husband's offer to eat out. I am glad we had great dinner at home. Thank you mami.

    Wouldn't the dosas be crispy if they were soaked for more than an hour? In the recipe, you mentioned exactly 1 hour. just curious.

    Take care.
