Egg Roast/Kerala Egg Roast


For the day 2 under the theme cooking with alphabets is E and I chose to cook Egg Roast on stove top.
Egg roast is a popular Kerala dish,often served for breakfast to accompany aappam,dosa and idiyappam.
The highlight of the recipe is the amount of thinly sliced onion and coconut oil,but here I used the regular cooking oil(olive oil).I served this egg roast with aappam and the left over with rice,it tastes great with rice also.Here goes the recipe.............

  • As my chilly powder is spicy I used 1 tsp,if you want you can add up to 11/2 tsp.
  • If the tanginess is not enough add a tsp of lemon juice at the end.

Rava Kozhukattai/Rava Pidi kozhukattai

For the alphabet R,I decided to make something with rava aka semolina.But I have blogged most of the  rava recipes  in Tamil cuisine. When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention. The method of making this kozhukattai is same as  upma kozhukattai ,whereas rava/semolina is used instead of rice.Both sweet and savory versions can be made with semolina.As we had lot of sweet dishes in the previous week I made the savory version.Soon share the sweet version.This is a great option for evening snack and I served with coconut chutney.Lets move on to the  recipe............                                                                                          ...

Paasiparuppu Dosa/Yellow Moong Dhal Dosa

For the 5th day under instant dosa varieties in Cooking Carnival is a protein rich dosa with moong dhal. This dosa can be called as vegetarian omlette as the taste resembles egg omlette.This dosa can be spread into a thin crepe or like uthappam/pancake.Either way it tastes good. The dhal gets soaked in less than an hour,once the batter is ready the dosa can be made.Grated veggies or some greens can be added to make it more healthy. Today I used,chopped onion and coriander leaves.Spicy tomato chutney or coriander chutney pairs very well with this dosa.Lets move on to the recipe............                                                                                                    ...
