    I have heard my friends say, that they are always in a dilemma of what to cook for lunch/dinner? Let's share what we cooked/had for lunch.I hope this would help us in getting more ideas.

    Let me tell you what i got:

    We got chicken biriyani with beef olathiyathu and naranga pickle for lunch( I made them y'day ).Kiddo took rice and black beans for lunch(not much of a biriyani fan)

    Latha,

    Nice Lunch.. Capsicum sambar?? How to prepare this? should we pressure cook capsicum with dal or separate?

    Thanks
    Archana :)

    Oh dear
    I was about to start a similar thread.Even i am confused what to cook daily.DrowningCooking is not a big deal for me but the deciding part is big headache.Daily i cook one daal item(sambar,daal with sabji etc),One subji and rice.Normal south indian food.Sometimes chutney or some liquid like pulusu.Noramlly rasam is part of dinner than lunch.Everyday i struggle with the menu part.I get bored with eating the same veggies and daal but cant help it.Sometimes i am very enthusiastic and have lot of ideas to cook.Sometimes i am so blank.Any ideas.................
