Navaratri is approaching and i thought of posting a few sundal recipes mandatorily made for the occasion.All festivals are joyous and many delicacies are prepared but navaratri celebrations last for nine days and each day a different Neivedhyam is offered to God.We also keep golu in our house and invite guests over and give manjal kumkum to the visiting girls and ladies as a kind of ritual.The steps for the golu can be kept in 3,5,7 or 9 no.s depending on the availability of dolls.My post today is Kadala parrupu sundal/Channa dal sundal which is easy to prepare and healthy...
Uppu Seedai is a traditional snack made during Krishna Jayanthi festival.This snack is made with rice flour and urad dal flour and lots of butter.I remember mom it in large batches usually 5-6.It is a tedious process of rolling the balls and me with my brother would help mom rolling these cute little seedai balls.It may appear that we are making many balls,but when you fry them and take out,you will see they are only a few.It can be stored for over a week and can be enjoyed later too.Many people are scared of making seedais at home,mainly for the...

It was during my summer holidays that I first tasted this parangikkai vella kootu.We used to spend our vacation in chennai every year and from delhi used to visit my grandparents there.Grandma took special care in preparing the delicacies and what joy it gave her.It is yet another rare and authentic recipe which I haven’t seen served in any hotels.Totally homestyle it is.Parangikkai is red pumpkin and vellam is jaggery,so it is a sweet flavoured stew which is had as an accompaniment with rice and another spicy curry to meet all the tastes of our versatile tongue.It is normally made...
Early mornings are always busy for me.Daughter leaves early for college and hubby leaves for work soon following suit.In that hurry burry sometimes i break my head for what to serve along with good old idly or dosa.I do make this mint chutney a bit thick in case i pack lunch for them or if serving at home it will be a little watery.Mint has innumerable health benefits,but hubby dear doesn't like it.Thankfully Dhivya likes it. So to avoid the overpowering flavour of mint i add coriander leaves as well.Mint helps as a cure for gas troubles,migraine headaches and also...
