Make The Best Wedding Day Cookies

Kaara Kulambhu or Puli Kulambhu is our family's favorite and I make weekly once for our lunch.Last week I got lot of eggplants from my home garden and I wanted to make kaara kulambhu,noted from a T.V show.The recipe sounds simple but the  highlight of the recipe is the use of freshly ground masala paste.Here I used the long variety eggplant but the original recipe is with the baby eggplants.                                                                                                                                            Kathirikkai Kaara Kulambhu/Kuzhambhu           ...

Coming to the final day of regional recipes in Karnataka cuisine for Blogging Marathon edition 66 is a crispy snack. Kodubale is a crispy rice flour rings,a quite addictive snack can be made in so many ways.I have already shared a version of kodubale  Suma's  blog. It uses rice flour along with ground peanut and all purpose flour,in the ratio of 4:1:1.The kodubales were so crunchy and addictive.Off to the recipe................                                                                                                                                                     ...

For the second day under Karnataka recipes under the regional dishes in BM#66 is a simple salad kosambari. Kosambari is a lentil based salad usually served in festival menu in Karnataka.It can also be eaten as such for a healthy snack.Here I used cucumber along with lentils(moong dhal),carrots or combination of carrot and cucumber can also be made for a colorful kosambari.                                                                                                                                                                        ...

Starting the 4th and final week of Blogging Marathon #66 with Regional recipes.For the regional theme I chose to share some of the Karnataka dishes.Today's recipe is a simple yet comforting rasam.We make rasam in a slightly different way and the rasam powder uses lot of black pepper.Also we grind the the rasma powder to a bit coarse consistency. But this rasam powder doesn't need any black pepper and the flavor and taste comes from the red chilly and coriander seeds.And the powder needs to be powdered to a fine powder.Lets move on to the recipe................                                                                                                                     ...

For the final day of checker board recipes under Blogging Marathon#66 is an exotic ice cream slice made with oreo cookies and white chocolate. When  I was going through the internet for checker board recipes,found this one in  CadburyKitchen .I scaled down the measurement and tried a small slice with mini oreo cookies.For the first trial it came out good and its a rich and creamy dessert with the crunch of oreos.Also I tried a single serving in a small square bowl.Off to the recipe.....................                                                                                                                            ...
