For the final day blogging marathon#61 themed under meals dishes is sambar sadam.This post with step wise picture were lying in my drafts since 3 years,could not find the main pictures in my drive. Also I wanted to share the restaurant style mini meals and finally made it. I am a great fan of this mini meals available in most of the South Indian Vegetarian restaurant chains. The menu is with tomato rice,sambar rice,curd rice,fryums,raita,potato fry,pickle and kesari. This version of sambar rice is slightly different from bisebelabath and uses  sambar powder  also some freshly ground spice powder.                                                                                                   ...

Coming to day 2 of Blogging Marathon#61 under the theme Meal Ideas is a kulambhu recipe with shallots and garlic. Kara kulambhu can be made in so many ways,but this one is with no veggies.Using shallots and garlic makes this kulmabhu finger licking.Sambar powder gives an added flavor to this kulambhu.This recipe I noted down from my aunt's family cook and wanted try since long.Finally I made it for this theme and in the original recipe no tomato is used,but I used a small tomato. As we prefer simple and comforting meals I paired up the kulambhu with rice,vendaikkai(okra ) poriyal and keerai(spinach) masiyal,appalam along with tomato rasam.It was so filling and a comforting lunch for a rainy afternoon.Off to the recipe...                                                                      ...

We are entering the final week of Blogging Marathon and I opted to share Lunch dishes.Today's recipe is a flavorful vegetable pulao, made in a pressure cooker. So many variations can be made,but here I deep fried the marinated cauliflowers florets and added to the pulao.This attempt I tried after having chicken 65 biriyani,couple of times in a restaurant.Lets move on to the recipe....                                                                                                                                                                   ...

For the final day of Blogging Marathon #61 under the theme Indian Mithai is Madatha kaja.This sweet is popular In Andhra Pradesh.This  sweet is quiet similar to badusha,popular in Tamilnadu. After a rich creamy dessert for second day of the theme,I wanted to make it simple. This sweet has been in my to do list since long.I have seen,my friend making this sweet couple of times.But never tried on my own.For the first I tried and taste was good,but not happy with the layers.I felt the layers have come out slightly thicker.So keep an eye to roll the dough to very thin sheet to get a nice crispy kajas.Try this simple and easy to make sweet and enjoy.....                                                                                             ...
