http://curriesandspices.blogspot.com/2012/10/poosanikkai-winter-melon-kootu.html
My Hobbies My Passion. Poosanikkai (Winter Melon) Kootu. What does 'MESS' mean? Untidy, dirty. But we, in South India, more precisely in Tamilnadu, have an all together different meaning for this word that goes off on a tangent. For us, MESS means a homely restaurant! Coming to our recipe today, Poosanikkai / Winter melon / Ash gourd as it is called is . Well, I have nothing to write about the recipe today. Except that this kootu, I tasted in one of these mess, is my all-time-favorite. And it...Mustard s...

My Hobbies My Passion. Most of you, who are reading my blog for sometime now must have known my love for Upma. I know, it is sometimes boring, dull and irritating. I have a big list of "I-hate-Upma" buddies! But to me, it is an ultimate comfort food, when I am not in a mood for an elaborate meal. Sometimes it is for breakfast, most of the time I even have it for lunch! So presenting you one more Upma from my cook book, Aval Upma or the ever-famous Kanda Aloo Poha! Aval / Poha / Flattened rice - 2 cups.

My Hobbies My Passion. Hyderabadi Vegetable Biryani and Mirchi Ka Salan. Whenever I see/hear "Hyderabadi Biryani", I starting drooling. Not for the non-veg version though. Wait! Am I making a mistake by saying "Non-veg version of Hyderabadi Biryani"? Oh yes, I am. Isn't Hyderabadi Biryani always made with Chicken or Mutton or whatever? And what more could be a perfect partner for biryani other than. Ever since I saw Malar's version of Mirchi ka Salan. So here goes our very own Hyderabadi Delights. Tomato...

My Hobbies My Passion. Chegodi Bracelet with Thatai Hearts and My "Compulsive"ness-es. A month of hectic sessions left me worn out and I had a very satisfying weekend to give a fitting end to the whole thing. Of course, I would be continuing the course after sometime but hey, DO WE NEED A REASON TO SHOP? That's what I did! A nice relaxed pampering session at the hairstylist, then some. Followed by relaxed Sunday and it spilled over to Monday, Tuesday too! That said, I am a compulsive packer too. Mean...

Curries and Spices: Kurma / Veg Saalna for Parotta
http://curriesandspices.blogspot.com/2009/11/kurma-veg-saalna-for-parotta.html
My Hobbies My Passion. Kurma / Veg Saalna for Parotta. Now I guess you'd have got an idea of the reputation of this wonderful Joint. They serve only vegeterian food, that being the first reason of me frequenting there; despite being a road-side eatery, they prepare the food and serve it in the most hygenic way, which makes my DH too like the place! They serve their Parottas with a Kurma, piping hot that your fingers burn before you finish the plate. That's how it tastes best too. Mint - 15 to 20 leaves.
