    Dear Chithra,
    I made Palak Koora Pappu today with pav bhaji paratha for lunch. I really enjoyed the dal, with palak. Now I will have to look up for such dishes more, to avoid taking curd.

    Dear Mam,

    It goes like this. Spending some time with you helps me spend more time with Inba [​IMG]

    Shall await your festival postings!

    Today's breakfast was bread with vegetable cream(thanks to Ms. Hridhaya). It is a many times repeated dish at home as it is simple yet tasty and filling. I added a bit of cheese reducing the quantity of milk.

    For lunch no recipe of yours but planning was followed. I saved handful of my everyday vegetable for the past 3 days in the freezer. One day when I boiled dhal I stored part of it. Whenever I see fresh vegetables I clean, cut and store. So, I had some 'kuzhambukkana kaigal', too. By default there will be shredded coconut. In the morning when I came to know I had to go out for a field visit with Inba I transfered dhal from the freezer, measured rice-kept it ready in the cooker, soaked tamarind and peeled off small onions. After coming back, in 45 minutes, we had our lunch with sambar, rasam and mixed veg poriyal with hot rice instead of eating out some unhealthy stuff. Such a treasure you are!

    Today for Navarathri I made Maalaadu and yesterday it was just jiffy mixing and stirring of cooked rice, jaggery, milk etc and seasoning.

    Great day!

    Dear Hridhaya,
    Thanks. veg cream isa quicker, easier version of veg au gratin. A friend of mine always makes it for breakfast parties:_:)
    Kovakkai bhath is a less common recipe too!!
    Ditto to your last line from my end too!:thumbsup
    I had gone for kolu to an ILite's house - there I had a phone call from an ILite from the US, asking a cookery doubt!!

    Vahee, first let me share this with you. Today I made manjal pongal saadam. It is sooo similar to pongal in taste & thought of you. Do try it.
    I am now "formulating" an instant paniyaram recipe with a little dosai mavu also "thrown" in!!
    Bombay chutney is the famous Maharashtrian Pitle!!

    Chitramma,

    Does Navarathri begin today? At home, Golu has already been set up two days back :), I never get these differences.

    Wish all of you a happy golu session, a wonderful time of muching sundals and arattais :) Think of me anytime any of you have anything remotely sweet! Truly, miss home now !

    Cheers,
    Arch

    Dear C,

    I made Mooli Parathas and mughalai Paneer for breakfast. Yellow gravy was ready in the fridge, so it just took 15 minutes to make breakfast. Made Vegetable JaIpuri for dinner, thanks to red gravy :) Definitely life is easy and meal is ready in flat 15 minutes.
    Made beetroot raitha, my FIL fell in love with this :) I made Puttu today, i was a guessing it to be challenging but I got the right uthir uthir consistency and puttu came out very well. M and FIL are racing to finish it :)
