Aloo Bindi Curry/Potato and Okra Curry


Coming to the day 2 of Blogging Marathon #57,sharing a dry curry with potato and okra.Initially I was bit hesitate to try this combo.But after seeing in a cookery show I was so confidence to try.In the original recipe both potato and okra are deep fried.Here I pan fried both veggies in a low flame to minimise the calories.Again the okra and tomato used are home grown and harvested more than 10 lbs of okra and 30 lbs of tomatoes for the whole summer.The okras were so fresh and tender.With no further delay lets move on to the recipe........................................

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............                                                                                          ...
