I don’t visit Domino’s frequently. I haven’t even once visited it but I have heard a lot about their garlic bread and stuffed garlic bread. When I saw the theme for Bread Baker’s challenges this month, I was tempted to try their garlic bread as the theme announced was garlic…
Javvarisi Paayasam
I am doing a month long A-Z Tamil recipes marathon and today is the day of the alphabet J. The only ingredient that came to my mind for J was Javvarisi which is nothing but sago or sabudana. No one at home is fond of javvarisi and so I don’t…
Inippu Aappam with Saamai Rice
As you know, I am doing an A-Z Tamil Nadu dishes this month for the mega Blogging Marathon. For the alphabet, I selected this sweet aappam and as usual made it millet based. I used saamai / little millet instead of rice. I get all types of millet in the…
Hotel Chutney
For the letter H, I had a really tough time selecting a Tamil recipe. There is no alphabet for ha, so there are no dishes starting with H. So I ended up using an English word. But still we use the word hotel in our speaking ad so this would…
Godhumai Gulkandhu Recipe
For the alphabet G, I found this recipe in one recipe supplement book. The photo was awesome, I liked it immediately. This was the very first recipe I tried for this BM and should say I was so disappointed with the recipe. There is one popular Tamil magazine called Aval…
Fried Idli / Idli Fry Recipe ( with Cholam Idli )
For the alphabet F, I had a really tough time. I never found a recipe in Tamil starting with F, as there is no letter which pronounces as F in Tamil. So I had to go for an English name for this. Fried idli/ Idli fry is one recipe my…
Elumichambala Rasam
For the alphabet E, this delicious easy rasam recipe is what I chose from a cook book which my mum gave. Though I have tried some versions of rasam like Paruppu Rasam, Poricha Rasam, Mysore rasam, Murungai Poo Rasam, Thengai Paal Rasam. But have never tried rasam with lemon. Usually…
Dosai Maavu Bonda (with Cholam / Sorghum)
Here is one more millet based recipe from my kitchen. I am amazed about how I try to incorporate millets into my day to day cooking. Yes, even I am surprised that I finally got hook of healthy life style. The most important point here is my daughter has been…
Chenaikilangu Varuval
For the alphabet C, I chose chenaikilangu. Chenaikilangu is nothing but yam which is a root vegetable. We use this to make Yam roast, kola urundai and a baked version of the roast. But still hubby wants me to make it like one of his colleague’s wife. I have never…
Beetroot Kola Urundai
For the alphabet B, it was so easy to choose. Beetroot is one of my favourite vegetables but used only in a handful of dishes. I wanted to explore more and saw this recipe in a Chettinad book I own. When I decided upon the cuisine for this BM, I…
