    Dear Chithra ma,

    In my recent trip to India, I introduced masoor dhall dosa, pasiparuppu dosa to my family. They loved it. My DD (1 year old) loves them. It is like she cant get enough of it!

    Hi Chithuamma,

    I am too here to give a feedback on Dosa...
    Sunday i made a batter for Masala dosa with tur dal and b4 2 hours Rava and soda salt etc., the dosa came so crispy and with excess batter yesterday i made paniyaram, that was also a hit...outer layer was soo crispy and the inner side is soo soft...Yummy with tomato chutney..

    Thanks for the recipes & constant encouragement.
    If i give feedback or not daily i come and peep into the thread just to know the trails of others, This thread is really encouraging...

    Dear Chithra,
    made poori and tiffin kurma, after seeing the FB here wanted to try it. Was a winner, we all had a hearty dinner. I was planning for rotis but both the boys wanted poori. With your tips and tricks it is not a great feat.
    Also, I am following your tips about soaking dals before cooking. Tur dal gets cooked well and rice remains slightly grainy, as A likes it. Already I make tamarin paste always and that is a real boon, no waste of tamarind. Want to mention this- I have seen my MIL soaking a large ball of tam daily and after squeezing whatever is needed, used discard the balance. Never took out the complete pulp. I used to keep the tam in a small cup over the cooker and squeeze out completely. Pulp your way is minimum waste only. And smbar is ready in jiffy.

    C,
    Yesterday I made Rava Kichdi for breakfast. It came out perfect, I should say this is the first time I got the texture and taste correct. Has given me good confidence to repeat again.

    Also made yam yeriseri, raw banana curry with ground powder in the past 2 days. Enjoyed well.
    Today made Masala paratha with sauteed methi. Again dough was easy to knead/roll with this tip.

    Tomorrow my inlaws are coming, planning to make any one of vathakuzhambu recipes. Want to get it right .... and planning to make some new recipes during the weekend. will let you know.

    This forum is our cooking dictionary :) thank you
