Lemon sevai is a tangy tasty tiffin or breakfast recipe I usually make at home.Specially helpful in days whenever onion is forbidden,this is a wholesome dinner option as well.I made this with with rice flour,but you can make it the traditional way of soaking the rice and grinding it nicely and steaming it and then putting it in the nazhi or press and squeeze out.That process is long,time consuming but very tasty.The method I used is equally flavourful and forms a good meal.See down below the recipe of Lemon Sevai.
Murukku or mullu murukku is prepared during diwali and janmashtami festivals,but i just wanted an excuse to prepare as i wanted to try this very much.I was sceptical about the outcome but then it was Diwali and i had to make it.Many beginners find this rather tricky as the squeezing into perfect rounds is a great task.By practicing for long and with great efforts i could to certain extent make these cute roundels. I made flour at home since i made only a small batch,but if you happen to have a flour mill nearby,better to have grounded there.I have also...

My daughter is so fond of chinese food that,each time she would experiment with something or the other when we chance to eat out.Iam afraid it’s the same story in many of the households,so when we went sometime back to eat out,I ordered,schezwan baby potatoes.The sauce in which it was made was simply out of the world.So the next day when I was about to make my evening snack I thought of trying out this sauce and then try out shezwan baby potatoes.I made this sauce,keeping in view the spices to be minimal but at the same time not compromising...
