Spicy Gobi Masala/Spicy Cauliflower Curry


Coming to the Cookbook Challenge I chose a recipe from one of my recipe booklet came along with pressure cooker.
In the original recipe,the curry is made in the pressure cooker with one whistle.As I was not sure how the cauliflower would be after pressure cook so made it in the open pan.I reduced the chilly powder from the original recipe,as I feed for kids the same curry.The curry/masala came out so creamy and delicious with perfect spicy and I paired up with rotis for our dinner.Off to the recipe...................................

    Sweet Adai /Inippu Adai

Coming to the recipe its a sweet adai which is often made in our households for quick neivedhyam for offering to god..So many variations can be made using wheat flour,maida,ragi flour and sometimes with semolina. Today's version I used both wheat and all purpose flour along with rice flour.Since sweetener is used to make the batter this adai needs to be cooked in a medium flame,otherwise the color will turn dark.Here I used jaggery,even palm sugar and brown sugar can also be used.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      Sweet Adai/Inippu Adai                                                                         Basic Information    Pre
