Homemade Tomato Ketchup



Making tomato ketchup is quite simple.Homemade ketchup is thick and tangy,much more better than store bought one.
I tried this tomato ketchup last summer when I had lot of home grown tomatoes.But couldn't get a chance to take the pictures.
Finally I made it with 1/2 kg of tomatoes for the sauces and preserves theme in Blogging Marathon edition 74.Off to the recipe.....................

Paasiparuppu Dosa/Yellow Moong Dhal Dosa

For the 5th day under instant dosa varieties in Cooking Carnival is a protein rich dosa with moong dhal. This dosa can be called as vegetarian omlette as the taste resembles egg omlette.This dosa can be spread into a thin crepe or like uthappam/pancake.Either way it tastes good. The dhal gets soaked in less than an hour,once the batter is ready the dosa can be made.Grated veggies or some greens can be added to make it more healthy.

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