    Thanks, Sakshi. Plain C chutney is a bit monotonous, may be this is 'novel'??
    Your masakai corresponds to DH's weight gain?? Interesting!!
    Good that you are now a gulab jamun specialist!
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Dear chitra mami,
    I have guests for dinner today and i'm planning the following menu:
    1. chapatis
    2. nawabi curry
    3. some pulav
    4. raita
    5. carrot halwa

    i saw in one of your get-togethers that you had made nuts and dry-fruit pulav which went very well with nawabi curry.. In case you have not posted it, can you give me the recipe here? Or let me know which other pulav will go very well with nawabi curry.

    Thanks in advance,
    Love
    Hema

    Dear Hema,
    Indha, pidichuko! It is too simple & hence I have not bothered to post!:biggrin2:
    Mixed Nuts Pulao

    Basmathi - 1 cup
    Bay leaf - 1
    Peppercorns - ½ tsp
    Chopped onion - 1 cup
    Green chillies-ginger-garlic minced - 1 tbsp (or more to taste)
    Tutti frutti - 2 tbsp
    Chopped cashes & almonds +raisins - ½ cup

    Salt
    Coconut milk - 1 ½-2 cups (from ½ cup coconut)
    Oil + ghee - 2 tbsp
    Cook basmathi grainy with little salt & coconut milk.
    Heat oil+ghee & first roast the nuts & raisins & remove.
    Add the minced ingredients, lightly fry & add onions.
    When onions turn glossy, switch off.
    Add rice, sal & mix.
    Garnish with roasted nuts just before serving.
    Love,
    Chithra.

    Dear chithramma,

    today not any interesting vege in kitchen made suda suda ven pongal with coconut chutney for dinner. the pongal is ideal for kutty ponnu as well (nanna thoonguva). this is the first time i made pongal in PP; very quick to make and delicious. got thai coconut. sema sweet. that's the reason i voted against gothsu despite having small onions. again this is the first time i used cup measurement for chutney and such a good result. after a long long time made coconut chutney... such a delightful dinner on a cold, dark autumn evening...

    i uploaded the celery-mushroom pulao, ragi dosai pictures here: http://www.indusladies.com/forums/miscellaneous-recipes/36317-virtual-feast-83.html

    please do check out when you find time...

    Latha

    hai chitra aunty,
    I tried the following receipes,
    1. thenkuzal - my press was having very small holes and it came out very thin,instead i used the other slightly big one and pressed , wow it came out really well,I was making it for the first time and it came out really well. 2. made angel burfi - came out creamish in color and not white like the photo you had shown. but the taste was really yummy. especially the taste of ghee was prominent in it.will make it fo diwali again.:thumbsup
    3. made baked thathai- that again came out well.
    4. made rice upma today for breakgast ,we like the taste will make it often now.
    thanks a lot aunty for posting all these receipes.
    love
    nimmi
