For this week, the theme for the Blogging Marathon is GF, Paleo or Vegan. This is so close to my heart as I have been into gluten free and paleo for the past two years. Before I talk about the recipe, I would like to clear something first. All paleo…
For the alphabet D, I searched and searched for some international flat bread but didn’t find one. So I was thinking of using a country name but then fortunately I came across the recipe for Dhebra from Gujarat. India helped me with tough letters. As I can repeat countries, I…
For the second day of stuffed dishes, I made nutella stuffed paniyaram. At first I had some plans of making dutch pancakes stuffed with nutella, but when I started preparing, I made these instant paniyaram. Any day I would prefer to use millet instead of maida and that is why…
For the second day, I have a delicious snack from Gujarat. Made with bajra flour, these vadas are crispy and flaky and taste yum with a cup of coffee or tea. These are one of the dishes made two days before Janmashtami. The day before Janmashtami is Shitala Satam and…

Here is one more addition to my millet recipes. I am doing an A-Z Tamil cuisine recipe marathon this month and have been posting regional recipes. Today for the alphabet T, I tried Thavala vadai. These are nothing but deep fried dhal fritters. My mom used to make this vada…
