Kandarappam(Jaggery based sweet)

I liked it warm (neither too hot nor too cold)! Kandarappam

Whole Wheat poori (very less oily!)

Poori...what a big deal? Just that it is made really dry...non-oily...call it less oily! So thought of sharing it with you all. As mentioned in one of the earlier posts, I make pooris using the whole wheat flour from King Arthur brand and this is the best low oily poori I have ever had. Got it from Safeway, I hope it is available in all regular grocery stores. Check it out... here are the pictures.. Poori

Kothu paratha or Chapathi

My better half calls it Kothu chapathi as I made it from rotis, you could call it kothu paratha as well. A good way to use up the left over rotis. The other day I had the Costco uncooked rotis, which we are not a big fan of, so made this one and it was really yummy. Kothu Chappathi

Avocado dip or salad

One of my all time hit recipes...most of you would have had it at my place with the tostitos scoops. Unfortunately I din't have it this time, so used the Trader Joes' flax seed one and Ritz biscuit. Avocado Salad

Note: Avocados will turn color like apple, so please make sure you have lemon juice when you make it.

Masala pappad with moong dhaal salad

Radish Chutney

The word Raddish reminds everyone of smell! (good or bad!!!!!). Trust me, this recipe doesn't have the smell of raddish and it is very yummy & healthy. Source for this recipe...my cousin from Australia..she does chutney out of any veggie you name it! Radish Chatni

Masaala Idli

A recipe from Vijay TV's Samayal Samayal! It would have been easier to make it in the regular idli vessel instead of tumblers. I liked the flavor due to the masaala..it was yummy! First blog recipe from my new kitchen. Masala Idly
