Ulutham Paruppu Sadham – Urad Dal Rice
November 10, 2014 Rice Varieties, Tirunelveli Style Recipes
-
Uluthum Paruppu Sadham/Urad Dal rice is an easy and healthy one pot meal. It is a traditional lunch menu of Tirunelveli. This is served specially to teenage girls during puberty. Urad Dal is rich in calcium and helps to strengthen bones. The complete combo would be Ulutham Paruppu Sadham, ellu thuvayal (recipe coming next), Aviyal and/or vathal. This can be made with split white urad dal or the black ones with skin. I have used white urad dal as Chotu does not like the look of the black ones and says “NO” immediately. Black Urad Dal is much healthier than this.

Motichoor Ladoo

-
Ladoo – the name itself is very tempting to me or any sweet for that matter. We do not have much options to get sweets here. Especially Motichoor Ladoo is very difficult. Chotu is a big fan of Motichoor Ladoo and it all started last year when we were on a vacation to India. He got attracted to these ladoos after watching Chota Bheem cartoon on TV. From then on he just loves it.
This made me to try these motichoor ladoos at home. Its very easy to make. Trust me if I can make it, u can too.. So why not try this for Diwali??

Carrot Chutney
September 29, 2014 Carrot, Chutney Recipes, Side Dish for Idli/Dosa
-
Idli/Dosa is a staple food in any South Indian household. This carrot chutney is an easy, healthy side dish for it. It can be made very quickly, perfect for busy mornings or tired evenings. This goes well with chapathi, poori and bread too. I always like to make chutneys with veggies. Its a good method to include some hidden veggies for kids!!

Poori and tomato thokku has always been my favourite combo since childhood. This Palak Poori is a slight twist to the normal poori. Its a very good method to sneak-peek some spinach for kids who are fussy about it. This does not require any side dish as such, just goes well with any pickle or simple raita. You can serve it for breakfast/dinner or pack it for kids lunch. Am sure kids would love the green color Palak Poori.
