    Dosa doesn't stick in non-stick thava

    Dear Chithra Madam,
    I tried in Non-stick thava based on your advise and saw that dosa doesn’t stick…I was so happy …Madam, so does it mean my other thava is not good?? I used to get good dosas in that thava some time back…will the thava become useless after sometime?? Please let me know.

    Luv&Regds,
    Jaya

    Doubts

    Madam,
    Some doubts on arachuvitta sambar.How long should i fry the corriander?Should i deep fry it till it becomes golden brown?Or need to only just make it hot?when i make archuvitta sambar, i ge t a sour taste of corriander. Please let me know what's wrong.
    Similarly for moorkuzhampu, i don't get the right taste. After adding the haldi and coconut taste is not very nice. How do i get the light green colour for moorkuzhampu?and for 4 people what should be the proportin of coconut and curd??
    Luv&Regds,
    Jaya

    Jaya, both queries answered now !

    I personally feel, any dosai tava becomes problematic after regular use for 2, 3 yrs. The gas heat somewhere changes the quality of the metal more at the centre & " kindal" starts. Never scrub tava with abrasives or vim powder when cleaning. Always wash using sponge & soap solution. Wipe dry immediately, smear a little oil on it uniformly to prevent rusting. The surface should always be " vaza vaza" for perfect dosais. The success of the dosai depends equally on the tava as on the dough. In short, treat the tava with respect !!
    For morkuzambu, please refer to
    http://www.indusladies.com/forums/showpost.php?p=2863&postcount=42
    That is sufficient for 4 people. After trying that way, please write to me if you still have doubt.
    Dhaniya should be lightly fried only - should just change colour. Otherwise it will become " marundu vasanai " !
    Love & regards,
    Chithra.

    Heena- for you

    Hi Heena,

    CVVK is 'chinna vengaya vathal kozhambu'. Vathal kozhambu is a runny gravy vaugely like aamti and chinna vengayam is small onions/shallots/pearl onions.

    This recipe by Mrs Chithra is very good.

    regards
    Vidya
