Chicken Fry / Chicken Milagu Jeeraga Varuval /Chicken Varuval


Ending the everyday lunch/dinner series with a simple yet flavorful chicken fry.Chicken milagu jeeraga varauval is a dry fry made with  black pepper and cumin powder for spice and it makes a perfect accompaniment or starter.The flavor of black pepper and cumin is the highlight of this fry.

As kids love some kind of dry fry with rasam rice,this one has becoming regular in my kitchen in recent days.This fry hardly takes 30 minutes to get ready if the chicken is cleaned and kept in the refrigerator.

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
