Broccoli Fry, I won't say that this is my favorite recipe but it has high nutritional values.There are some foods we need to intake just because of this nutritional values even if it is not our favorite food one such vegetable is broccoli.I never cooked or tasted broccoli recipes when I was in India. Here in Sweden we rarely get Indian vegetables so with no other choice I bought this vegetable and just did a Google search for broccoli recipes and got to know about its benefits and I am really impressed, also found out a recipe and cooked this vegetable, and the taste was good. Many people say this vegetable tastes different and not everyone like this. I would say it has cauliflower taste. when I cooked this dish it smelt like Gobi fry. You can definitely give it a try for its benefits.
Pattani Sundal one of most popular navarathri special dish. In temples they prepare this for prasadham, many of us go to temple only to get prasadham however they give only a spoonful of it. Even if it is just a spoon of prashadh we get unexplained happiness while having it, How many of you agree this? I can see many of your hands raising :) My mom prepare this for saraswathi pooja also sometimes as evening snack. Not sure how many of you have had Pattani Sundal along with Rice Puff, if not please try it, it tastes very good. There are many ways of preparing pattani sundal, and here come the recipe for my way of pattani sundal.
Today I am posting recipe for Kara Kuzhi Paniyaram, one of my favorite recipe.My Grandma prepares this dish for me whenever I go there for holidays.she also prepares coconut chutney and Tomato chutney to accompany with this.The best part is she grind these chutneys in Ammi kal (flat bed manual grinding stone), do I need to say how good it tastes!!! Feeling like going to my grandma's home :(
Now will come to our recipe details, Panniyaram can prepared as evening snack or we can also prepare this along with Dosa or Idli to give different variety for breakfast and dinner. I prepared this dish as snack for rainy evening. Just imagine rainy evening, with spicy paniyaram along with hot tea..Feels great right ?? Ok here comes the recipe for Kara Paniyaram.
Chilly Gobi, Gobi
Manchurian, baby corn recipes, mushroom recipes are the only hope for
vegetarian people in restaurants.If vegetarians go to restaurants as a
gang along with non-vegetarians, all veg starters be shared with non-veg
people, but non-veg dishes are only for non-veg people, ohhh soo sad
vegetarians.
Chilly gobi also called as Gobi 65 is the first part
of Gobi manchurian, today I am going to share a recipe for Chilli
Gobi/Gobi 65 and it is a very good appetizer. I prepared this to
accompany with lemon rice.
Today I am sharing a recipe which can be prepared with fresh Idli or left over Idli. Usually we prepare Idli Uppma with left over idli's, so for a change I tried this recipe and it came out very well. Kara Podi Idli can be prepared with very limited Ingredients. Best snack for evening hunger I hope. Mouthwatering when I think of picking each Idli with fork & munching it accompanying with hot tea or coffee while watching TV. Try it in your kitchen and provide me a feedback :)
This is an
item which is often served in South India for all functions and
festivals. A most favorite item for many of us, suits well as side dish
with Breakfast, Lunch and also can be used as evening snack.
A spicy, crunchy & tasty authentic traditional appetizer Paruppu Vadai.
Vinayagar Chathurthi, the first thing which comes to our mind is Kozhukattai :). Lord Ganesha's Favorite dish, not only for him Kozhukattai is most of our favorite dish.You may think, this is not Ganesha festival season then why she is talking about Kozhukattai.Yes, In many homes they prepare Kozhukattai only on Vinayagar Chathurthi day.But my mom prepares Kaara (Spicy) Kozhukattai as breakfast recipe on normal days and serves it with coconut chutney,it tastes very good.
I added few more ingredients with Kara(spicy) Kozhukattai recipe and prepared Masala Kozhukattai, the aroma, flavor and taste was too good.We had this Kozhukattai as tea time snack So I didn't prepare any chutney. But you can have this for breakfast along with coconut chutney.
Carrot is all time favorite vegetable for many of us. Few years ago when I was in Chennai, I went to Andhra mess along with my friends. There they served us a fry and it was very crunchy & tasty but we were not able identify which vegetable it was, So we inquired and got surprised to know that it was made using carrot.
I searched in many websites to know the recipe of this fry but I didn't find it. I tried to replicate it by myself, At first try it didn't come as expected :( and so tried it once again by adding few more ingredients & It came out very well :)
So, here comes the recipe,
