Hot Chocolate is a simple and delicious hot drink for all chocolate lovers. Rather than getting those store bought ready mixes or the restaurant ones, this homemade Hot Chocolate is very easy, yummy and economical too. I have tasted Hot Chocolate in many places, but I would say the best one was at my hubby’s office I have been hunting for the best recipe for a very long time and tried this one from a cook book that I had borrowed from the library. It is just creamy, yummy and chocolatey!!

Mochai Murungai Kulambu – Mochai Kuzhambu
February 24, 2016 Kuzhambu Varieties
-
Mochai Kuzhambu is a lip-smacking, flavourful kulambu variety. I love mochai, but unfortunately we dont get fresh mochai here. So I always use the dry ones. Mochai by itself gives a wonderful flavour/taste to the kuzhambu. Adding drumstick enhances the taste even more. Somehow, this Mochai Kuzhambu tastes even better the next day!! Serves well with hot steamed rice and appalam. U dont need any other side dish as such.

Black Urad Dal Dosa – Karuppu Ulundu Dosai
February 21, 2016 Breakfast/Dinner, Dosa Corner, Tirunelveli Style Recipes
-
Karuppu Ulundu Dosai is an added healthy twist to the normal dosa. It is made with black urad dal i.e urad dal with skin. I normally prefer to make Ulutham Paruupu Satham with this karuppu ulundu, but it is quite difficult to trick Chotu because of the colour. So I make this Karuppu Ulundu Dosai to sneak-peak black urad dal. It tastes almost the same as normal dosa. The only difference is again the colour, but it is manageable with him

Peanut Butter Fudge will be ready!! Though it hardly takes 10 mins to make it, the boring part is to let it set in the fridge.

Chayote, known as chow chow in tamil is usually made as a kootu in any South Indian household. I make this Chow Chow Fry quite often than kootu. This fry goes well with roti and rice. So whenever I make this, Chotu has it with rice and we have it as a roti wrap for lunch. Two in one purpose solved right?!? This veggie takes very less time to cook and is a super easy recipe.

Homemade pickles are always drool worthy!! I would say, fresh pickles are a better choice than the store bought ones, which are loaded with preservatives. This Nellikai Oorugai / Gooseberry Pickle is a simple and lip-smacking pickle that can be made instantly. I was really excited to buy these gooseberries in our Indian shop last week. Immediately called my mom for the recipe and made it at once. Yumm!! We had this pickle with curd rice, chapathi, bread and what not!?!
