    Krishnaamma,

    I tried one of your version of Bisibelabath today. It came out very well.
    Especially your bisebelabath powder did not include coconut, that's the reason I was tempted to try your version.

    One of my Kannadiga friend had thought me a version of Bisibelath in which she asked me to include kopparai thengai (fried coconut) while making the powder.

    Thank you for the recipe, Krishnamma, I have stocked little more powder to try out some other day too when I invite some guests home.

    Regards,
    Malathy

    Hi Fiona,:eek:mg:

    Come on ya, go through the thread and read it carefully. WitsendAnd please dont give comments without reading the thread . Sorry to say this.

    I made one ready made powder and it can be used for many dishes. So I gave that name to that powder.

    It is All Purpose Powder and it is not All Purpose Flour.
