final FB for the day for chow-chow thogayal. i only know of chow-chow tholi thogayal and this one was better than that I had one little green tomato so added that instead of tamarind. The chow-chow we get here is chinese, i think, and is crisp and elasu so you can imagine the taste. It went very well with chapathi.

Dear Mam,

Gd Morning to you.

today for breakfast tried your receipe for "LAPSI ADAI". with the tomato thokku.the combi is awesome and adais are very tasty,never culd imagine that a handful of dals and lapsi can taste so good.

as always tomato thokku tops,now its a regular .

just wanted to mention , palida is also very good to cool the body during the summer.and i remember it having it in schoolmate's place which her mom would prepare with mooli chunks or grated too.

thanks for the lovely and perfect receipes.

Latha,
i dont apply any spl techniques while taking photo.i take some 3-4 takes and choose the best one and post .the background usually any furniture top is always choosen by my dd.who is beside me with her toy camera when i take photos.

cheers

Dear chithra mami,

Feedback for MW milk chocolate - jiffy and fool proof.i have a milk powder packet to finish and tried this recipe.Ideal sweet for festivals as it gives a 'thitthippu feeling" which remains long time even after eating it..
It has set nicely and very soft to eat.Thank you for all the recipes.

Dear Chitramma,
Its been a while since i visited IL but have been trying many diff recipes and not able to come online to post FB, so very sorry abt it, but have been thinking and thanking you always.
i made ulutham kali and wanted to take photo too, but we just couldn't wait to taste it and finished it off, so didn't take pic.
i am planning to make it again next weekend and hopefully take a pic.
made pavakkai pitlai , pavakkai chips both were very good and very nice. dh was surprised as he always avoids pavakkai dishes.
made semiya upuma, always i avoid such dishes but this time followed ur tips of roasting semiya first and then again with veggies and it came out very perfect.
made paruppu urundai kolambu and also karuppu ulundu dosai for dinner, very very yummy!
thanks so much for all wonderful recipes.
Chaaral.

 

hai chitra amma,
I tried out tomato kuzhambu for dosa last night and we loved the taste.It tempted us much and i dont know how much dosa i had.Thanks amma for ur receipes.

 

Hey!

Enga FB mazhai! I am more in love with bittergourd after Raji's pictures.Yes, it has been one of my favourites always. I wonder how some dont like certain vegetables!

Last night, we had a pot dinner, with three families preparing different dishes. We had to make rotis, a potato based curry and a sweet.

Now for the FB's - Made Gulabjamun, from the scratch. CV, Amma rarely makes the scratch version, we have always been with MTR mixes. Not that it is bad, but this is deliciosuly soft. I am pretty sure the picture gulabjamuns on the MTR carton was made using the scratch method! Also, it is very quick.

Rotis - Amma made two sets. Some plain, some kashmiri. Our grinder doubles with a kneader attachement and hence dough is a cakewalk. With my amma being a roti maker patron, it was so simple!

Potato Curry - Made madurai Kizhangu. Sema hit! All of them went back asking the way to do it! Is this a speciality of madurai? I had a aunty from Viridhunagar asking me about it

No photos - because my camera was out on a official trip And CV, did I give you my FB's on Set dosais? Acho, they were amazing. The sagu was super too.

One more thing - Is this the cucumber pachadi I gobbled up mercilessly at your place? It was so yummy, and I am so glad that it is catching up big time at IL. My ashoka halwa is still on the yet to try list:-(. Adding the palida to it now!

Love
