    Re: Palakura pappu

    Dear Sujatha

    I will give you one more method in brief. Take moong dal and appropriate Palak leaves ,Green chillies as per your taste and boil them in a Pressure Cooker. After dhal is cooked and cooled take out and add salt,Lemon Juice as per your taste and make seasoning with urad dhal,Mustard seeds and curry leaves.

    You try this method. I can say u will definetly like it. In this method u can avoid tamarind , red chillies and tomatoes also. You try this and enjoy .

    hi deepthi here is a tip for avoiding stickyness in bendakaya. if you want to make bendi fry today, then previous day night wash bendi and wipe with a dry cloth,cut into pieces and spread them on a dry cloth and cook it the next day morning.while making bendi fry dont keep lid because water from lid will fall in fry and will make fry gummy.if yor are making curry then soak bendi pieces in buttermilk before cooking and when you put pieces in curry take them out of buttermilk with your fist and shake your fist in sink,so that the buttermilk sticking to pieces will fall in sink.if you are cooking bendakaya pulusu(okra in tamarind) then pour more tamarind juice.in these ways you can cook bendi without stickiness.

    thanks,

    hi rathiiiii
    try this variety of chutney for dosa and idly

    2 red bellpeppers(capsicum)
    1 medium tomato)
    dry red chillies 4 to 5 depends on how hot u eat
    dania(hope u know) i dont know the other name for them

    first fry chilli and dania in little oil . keep them side .
    next take some more oil and add red bellpepper and tomato and fry until they are done
    next grind chilli and and dania till it becomes powder,add peppers and tomato mix and grind. add garlic cloves 2 to 3 and little zeera and grind.
    depending on taste u can also add tamrind past if u want.

    Hi

    I saw in the beginning of the thread ,one of you asking for the recipe of parchimirapakayala pachadi ,we cant get that spicy as we make in the house form the store,i learn't how to make its form my grandmother ,but let me tell mention one thing this will be really very spicy (of course depends of the type of chilli u pick ,small chillis are really spicy )

    Green chillis - Handful
    Garlic- 5 -6 pieces
    Tamarind -size of big lemon
    Jeera - 1 tsp
    Salt - to taste

    First in pan pour 1 tsp of oil and fry the green chillies

    Mean while soak the tamarind in water

    Once the greenchillies are ready ,in a mixy first grind jeera,gralic,,tamarind(without water, make sure u dont add water to this chutney at all)

    Then once they are ready u can add salt and green chilles and run mixy

    in pulse mode so that its doesnt come as a paste(this chutney will be

    kacha pacha only not as a fine paste ,in india we make it in rolu,but we

    cant have one here in USA so if u run mixy in pulse mode u can get in the similar way)

    once its done u can just taste a bit and if u feel anything is less u can go a ahead and add

    Once done u can serve with hothot rice and ghee
