Simple Everyday South Indian Thali


After,couple of weeks break,I am starting the blogging with Blogging Marathon 70th edition.For this week I choose the Thali as theme and sharing a simple everyday Tamilnadu style Thali.For this theme I wanted to share some other state Thali.But due to lot of personal work and my laptop issues,finally ended up in making a typical home style food.
Most of the recipes made for this thali were shared already but the beetroot poriyal is a pending post.So sharing the recipe and also used the beet greens and made kootu out of it.Will share the kootu recipe later.
The Thali consists of

White rice
Ennai Kathirikkai Kulambhu
Rasam
Vellarikkai(cucumber) Thayir pachadi/raita
Beet leaves Kootu
Beetroot Poriyal
Paruppu Thogayal
Curd
Arisi Vathal/Vadam aka Ilai Vadam

Coming to the recipe,here I used roasted peanuts in the poriyal to give extra crunch.Instead of peanuts,boiled peas or channa dhal can be used.

Sweet Adai /Inippu Adai

Today is the final day for the Cooking Carnival in mega Blogging Marathon edition ans I like to end the series with a sweet note. 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
