    dear shanthi,
    it is the fool proof way, that is why wrote it here now, as there are many young girls here, and also some like me who have sudden amnesia as to how much of water and so on, i would like my friends here to try out some veg this time, like the chinese, we can stirfry the finely shredded cabbage, carrot, and capsicum, with a little bit of coriander as onions are not allowed on that day, and make a manchurian kozhakattai which is known as dimsim in chinese.today's paper also has come out with the idli manchurian which i had posted here long back...sunkan

    dear sathya,
    varutha mave yennikavadu kindirukkiya for kozhakatte choppu, i went through that pavam amma she was always confused with karadaiyan and ganesha kozhakatte what to do, but got a dose from mamanar, yennavo avaloda style kathukka vendamo, as she sent a set of kozhakattai in the evening..so a memorable incidence that keep cropping up in mind during ganesha chathurthi...akka

    Dear Sathya,

    I think the hugging comes after the tugging... Ava adikka, naan vanga... nan vanga aval adikka.... Always one way traffic.... But the only consolation is the hugging afterwards.:2thumbsup: :2thumbsup:

    What to do.... Pray for me...:-D

    dear sunkan
    thanks so much. enjoyed it al lot. i did my kozhkattais today itself as my hubby is leaving for china and he loves this dish. thanks to chitvish i survived. but i have always done by this method mainly because i didnt know any other. my parents are from palghat too. i never entered the kitchen before marraige other than to eat. so what i know is thanks to inlaws. really enjoyed your style.
