salt

coriander powder - 1 tsp

Heat oil in a pan, add bay leaves, cloves and let it crackle... add onion and fry til golden brown. Add tomato and fry til it becomes soft. add red chilli powder , coriander powder, salt and little of water. bring it to boil and cool it. grind it in the mixer. you can also use butter for flavor if needed. try this and let me know the result from you.

hey, so many recipes...

Buzzy, for pesarattu, inji chutney is the sariyana jodi..

This is how i do it:

take equal measures of coconut, jaggery, almost the same or a little less measure of ginger, 1tbsp of urad dal, little tamarind, some red chillies, and salt.

heat oil, first goes some mustard, then chillies, then urad dal, then ginger, switch off the flame, add coconut, jaggery and tamarind, and grind it with salt.

Ramya @ happymom, even i tried to make sambar with kadalai paruppu.

In my case, i was damn sure that this is what went into sambar... So i didnt bother to even ask anybody..!

The taste was, so i hesitantly asked around, what could be wrong, and i was asked to describe how i made sambar, and i was caught.. 

 anu... i did that when my mother was sick (ellaina edhuku kitchen kulla porein ) but my parents nd brother still had it because they were so bored of hotel food 

Hi,

Anu & happy mom, same blood for me too..when i was newly married, the very first day after a long gap he went to his office and i prepared food(sambar & potato fry)

I prepared sambar using kadali parupu and he called me from office saying wowwwwwww sambar is too good...hehehhehe enna kodumai ithu

Sorry wasnt on the blog for a week or so... i have asked my mom for the recipes.. once when she gives them i will share it ..

@Happy mom Ramya...

I started cooking alone after coming to Kuwait only...Else in India I will be yedupudi for my MIL....

I too done sambhar in Kadalai Parupu until my MIL cums to Kuwait...She is one who found that im using kadalai paruppu for sambhar...I asked my mil how to identify thuvaram parupu from kadalai parupu....

Without knowing anything my Appaavi  Hubby ate my kadalai parupu sambar & says "yummu sambar"

enna koduma saravanan!!!! hurray to the best sambar of HABI.

i have also dne the mistake but with paitham paruppu but my FIL appreciated for an excellent sambar. That was really gud gals...nambunga pa pls

hey lovely chutney's yaar. .i am going to try out capsicum chutney

 mollu

we can do sambar with paitham paruppu also. will be tasty and a good side dish for pongal. that is not a mistake.

 My husband doesnt know the difference between any of these paruppus... he bought kadalai paruppu when asked to buy thuvaram paruppu... and he said he thought it is a better quality thuvaram paruppu as it was "good looking"

The same day he bought shahijeera instead of jeerakam.. he said so many jeera's were there.. he bought the expensive one thinking that it must be the better quality one!!!

hahahaaaaaaaaaa nisha.....
