VAZHAI AVARAKKAI PORIYAL

For pongal we make at least five varieties of poriyal in my house and this is will be one among...For me this is a festive season poriyal. And during my childhood,I rarely eat veggies... 

MINI SAMOSA(CORN&PANEER)

When ever I eat samosa, I will messy up my plate:),will eat only the outer layer and will not touch the filling.. I feel they are so heavy for a snack.. So i rarely eat samosa.. During my college time, I frequently visit my aunts place in Chennai..

TOMATO PRAWN MASALA

When I started cooking after my marriage,I found that cutting veggies was ok.. When compared to cleaning non-veg, I have never entered into the sea food markets in my home town, but in Singapore no other go,in fair price they are good, they clean completely,but i have big doubt and clean them at Least 6-7 times.. 

PEAR&CLOVE CHUTNEY

I have tasted pear just once before my marriage ... But that din't taste sweet and it was too hard and chunky... So after marriage when ever I see Pear in fair price I always stay away.. But once,when my mom came her to Singapore, her friends in Singapore made a visit to our house.. 

MEEN KUZHAMBU(FISH CURRY)

When it comes to non veg recipes,I will say my moms recipes are the best . Especially meen kuzhambu,it tastes so delicious when tried on her hands(kai pakuvam)...:)she dose it so perfectly with correct spicyness sour and salt without tasting it. 

KUMBAKONAM KADAPPA

My mom,often makes this recipe at home for breakfast... When ever we go for temple visits ,we start in the morning time and my mom mostly packs kadappa with idly for breakfast...

If you are a tangy lover,then you are in the correct page on web..I have tried this recipe many times at home..and all the time this recipe is a hit one..

CHOCO BEETROOT CUPCAKE(VEGAN & LOW FAT)

I'm so excited:-"...I baked my first cake, and it has come out so well that rk and my Mil loved it..  It tasted so yummy and spongy .. Choco beetroot cake made my day..:)

CABBAGE KOOTU WITH MOONG DAL(PAASI PARUPPU)

If I think of cabbage kootu , the first thing that hits my mind is my college days...:)
I stayed in hostel during my college days,so dayschooler homemade foods was heavenly to me... Before going to hostel for lunch, all the hostel-mates in my class will have mini lunch form my dayschooler friends.

SAMBAR PODI/SAMBAR POWDER

I know everyone, have their own version of preparing Sambar powder at home .. But i just want post my moms version of sambar powder, which i use in my kitchen...  And i add sambar powder in most of my veg (nattu kaikarigal)recipes...But now a days we can get  different types of sambar powder brands in the market...To me home made or mom made powder is the best ...

PINEAPPLE CHUTNEY

Pineapple Chutney, I try few fruit(pear,apricot,mango) chutneys at home and they are wonderful with grilled food and make a great sandwich spread....Sure kids will love as sandwich spread...

CHICKEN KORMA/KOZHI KUZHAMBU

Chicken korma ! What would be the best description i could give for this recipe?.The best word i would use is delicious...! A hot chicken korma is what i need to tickle my taste buds and nothing beats a plate of idly with chicken korma on a cold rainy night.Hope all the Non-veg lovers will agree for this statement.
