Chicken Ghee Roast


After a long break I started my blogging with the 88th edition of blogging marathon.Some of my personal thinks take priority and blogging takes back seat.Hopefully I will be able to blog regularly.

For this week of the 88th edition I chose,Protein rich dishes as theme and sharing some the chicken recipes. I bookmarked a bunch of chicken recipes for the September 2017,mega marathon themed Protein rich dishes.But couldn't share so many chicken  recipes due to my sub themes,so using this opportunity to share those recipes.

Coming to the recipe its a very popular coastal Karnataka recipe especially in Mangalore.Its a fiery red,dry fry usually paired up with neer dosa.

The use of Bydagi chilly variety and the freshly ground spices gives a nice color and unique flavor.Also the key ingredient ghee makes it so rich and delicious.Making this fry takes only 30 minutes as no chopping of veggies involved.

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

Kothamalli/Coriander Thokku

Coriander thokku is a flavorful,tangy and spicy thokku  which I make it often and store it.It is an easy to make thokku which stays fresh for a week in the refrigerator.My mom makes this one for  travelling since it stays good without refrigeration for two days.This thokku is an accompaniment for idly,dosa,chappathi and curd rice.It can also be mixed with white rice topped with ghee or sesame oil.Here goes 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. Today I used,chopped onion and coriander leaves.Spicy tomato chutney or coriander chutney pairs very well with this dosa.Lets move on to the recipe............                                                                                                    ...
