we know is very rich in fiber, low in fat and is a low calorie food apart from
being good source of vitamin B1, calcium, iron and protein which is why we
prefer it as a wholesome breakfast. What is more convenient about oats is that
it suits all ages from a few months old baby to even a 100 years old person as
it is simple to digest. Making a relish able dish with it such as this oats Kozhukattai
is a real feast for both palate and health.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">Gooseberry
is one vegetable whose nutrient power stays intact in any form we take them:
fresh berries, pureed, cooked, sundried, pickled, powdered or whatever. It is
such a sought for item in Ayurveda; which is </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">used in healing so many diseases and helps in leading
an immune, long & healthy life. Intensely rich in vitamin C, Amla does a
good fight against common cold and other such infections. Available almost through
the year, it is a common man’s inexpensive and natural remedy for hair &
skin care. Vitamin C is one nutrient that our body cannot store and use, so we
need to supply it every day; pickle is an easy way to achieve this because we
can store pickle and consume in small quantities regularly as it is not viable
to add fresh amla in everyday cooking.</span><br />

Wash, pat dry and steam cook the gooseberries whole to a soft texture. I do not
add water or salt to the berries while pressure cooking for 6-8 whistles. This is most of the cooking time; tempering the pickle takes around 10 minutes.</span></div>

cooking the gooseberries sometimes there is some amount of moisture let out by
the vegetable; this can either be used in the pickle or be used in a different
recipe such as gooseberry soup or so. I prefer not to use it in the pickle as moisture
reduces the shelf life of pickle.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">We had
a potluck last week with some friends and had prepared masaal vadai as one of
the items; Shiva Shankari had mostly made it and it was a super hit item which
all of us liked very much. This is a conventional item in most south Indian homes
but we at home are more acquainted with medu vadai so its an exiting dish for me. I had tried this once with
‘pattani paruppu’ instead of gram dal, when we had my sister and family at
home; it had turned slightly watery and so, </span><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;"><span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">thanks to Shankari </span>only this time I

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">Many of
us are fond of French fries but we resist for the sake of health; potato is good while the way we cook them makes it bad for health. This recipe is
a kind of solution for French fry craving in a guilt-free way. Very less oil, that
too olive oil and minimally spiced; there is absolutely no reason for holding back,
after all potato is very beneficial for health if we cook them right. Potato is good
for skin, brain, heart, kidney and tongue also ;). People restricted for carb
intake must consult doctors though.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">I have
been making this recipe countless times post my marriage as Kundan is so very
fond of it. While people with diabetes are generally advised to avoid ripe
bananas, raw bananas are quite beneficial to them; also as it is rich in fibre it
is a preferred vegetable for weight loss. This might seem like a simple and
silly to post recipe; but the reason I do it is because I see people adapt
different techniques and each have its own set back. I have arrived at few
steps to make a tasty-less oil-quick way to make Vazhaikkai Varuval/ raw banana
fry; it is more a compilation of tips than the recipe itself (For people who already do it this way this might be a redundancy).</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">Last
Friday, I tried this risotto recipe with the idly rice (Earlier I had tried my
‘Humble Risotto’ with brown rice). Though this is not as creamy as Arborio
rice, I would consider it a closer variety we’ve in India. I also experimented in
substituting cucumber for zucchini, which both of us didn’t appreciate very much but
it can be just skipped if zucchini is unavailable. I’ve not used cream in this recipe, Italians do
not use them at all; the creamy texture of risotto is rendered by the starch
released by Arborio rice and slow cooking is another imperative process in
risotto making.</span></div>

breakfast is a very challenging task me for I get up late; so I always choose
stuff that are easy to prepare and are good to eat. Bread sooji toast along
with a glass of milk will make a complete breakfast quickly and easily. This toast with
ketchup, I don’t think any of us will have distaste for this. A couple of slices
of bread was quite filling and it is definitely another bread
recipe to try out.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">In my
childhood days when we were sent to buy vegetables from the local market they gave
us curry leaves & coriander leaves as compliments; these days in the
departmental stores they seem to be price-tagged separately. In Chennai we
still get these as compliments from some vegetable vendors. This seems a very
trivial thing but that gesture is a feel good thing because there is an old
belief linked to this; they say curry leaves are not to be bought and anyway they
shouldn’t be omitted also, so we get them gifted by veggie vendors. Okay, that could be a
superstition but a harmless one.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="line-height: 150%;">A lot
of such accumulated compliments took form of thokku in my kitchen last week.
Curry leaves are extensively used in south Indian cooking especially for tempering
the dishes and are known to aid in hair loss and premature </span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span style="font-size: 19px; line-height: 28px;">graying of</span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: medium;"><span style="line-height: 150%;"> hair in addition to being a rich source of vitamin A.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Actually
I had made it with naan so I should rather call it kothu naan. I have tried to
make this not so healthy - damn spicy dish, a less wicked one by adding some
veggies [Just a sort of excuse ;)]. The making of kothu parota in the
roadside shops while travelling is an attention-grabbing process; the flavour,
sound and looks are all quite appealing but the hygiene factor holds us aback. Making
it at home with less spice, less oil and some vegetables is a guilt-free way to
relish it occasionally. Store bought ready parotas or left over parathas or
even rotis can be used apart my my naan version.</span></div>

Pile the naan or roti that you are going to use; cut them into small bite sized
squares and crush them slightly between fists to soften a bit. In the roadside shops they typically mince the parotas using dosa
spatulas in both hands which makes that tak-tak sound. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Tzavarabour,
frankly I don’t even know if I am pronouncing it right but I’ve spelt it right.
This is a traditional Armenian recipe (Republic of Armenia is a country near Turkey) which I happened to randomly hit on the web from George’s cookbook, http://www.georgefamily.net/cookbook. I
was looking for a tomato-spinach soup and this recipe was quite interesting and
so I picked it up. I replaced samba wheat rava for bulgar wheat which is used
in the authentic recipe. It was a wholesome and light supper that I opted for
yesterday; we both liked it.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">The
other day I had tried this mixed veg curry for roti which I liked very much but
Kundan only kind of liked it. It is slightly creamy and bland as though it is a
tweaked version of avail (A famous kerala mixed veg dish cooked in coconut milk). Best thing about
this recipe is we can make it with different combination of vegetables like
carrot, capsicum, bush beans, potato, cauliflower, green peas, beetroot and so
apart from tomato and onion that are added as base. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 19px; line-height: 28px;">It is quite healthy; however, may not go as well with rice varieties.</span></div>

a typical tandoori flatbread but I’ve made it in gas stove. I see tandoor
cooking in Asian countries as an equivalent to barbeque in western
nations.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There are mainly three things
that make tandoor or barbeque cooking distinct; they heat the food directly
without any medium, help cook at high temperatures and leave food with smoky/ charred
flavour. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">Bottle
gourd is such a healthy vegetable: it helps digestion, it cools the body, it is
beneficial to skin and is mainly sought-after for weight loss.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">But I have never heard anyone call it a
favourite veggie; in my mom-in-law’s home they don’t even include it in anyway.
When we had Kundan’s cousin for lunch, I wanted to try this lauki kofta curry
as I thought that’s a cheering way to feed bottle gourd to people who abhor it
on plate. I’m not sure how far my guests or Kundan liked it but our maid
appreciated it pretty much.</span></div>

Peel and grate the bottle gourd into fine shreds [I did a mistake by making
thick shreds; it made the kofta chewy even after cooking]. Add 2 pinches of
salt and leave aside for 30 minutes after which you need to squeeze out the
juice (save it for gravy) and take it in a mixing bowl.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

half a lemon, salt and mix well. Add more flour if required, roll into 2” balls
and deep fry them until golden brown.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

name sounds comical; but then I couldn’t think of a name that would be more appropriate
for my blanched, mildly seasoned and sautéed cauliflower florets. I always like
my cauliflower just cooked, as in it should still be firm in appearance and
soft in texture. Sattvic foods are those that instil sattva guna in us. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Georgia","serif"; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 150%;">Ok... for
those who’ve not come across this stuff: According to Bhagavad Gita, there are
three gunas namely sattva guna, tamas guna and rajas guna each of which have
their own traits and are there inside every being in different proportions. We
would require them in varied scopes depending on our profession, personality
and so on. Though these gunas are not determined merely by our food intake,
food does have an influence in arousing these gunas in us. Generally, Sattvic
foods are fresh fruits and vegetables that are either uncooked or mildly cooked
and minimally spiced; Tamasic foods are fatty, meaty, and stale; Rajas foods
are spicy, fermented, sour and pickled. Spiritual guidelines encourage us to
maximize the sattvic guna while maintaining the other two just at the minimum
required levels in order to lead a happy and healthy life.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">Almost
always Kundan orders for paneer tikka when eating out. So, I had wanted to try
this for a long time now and had an opportunity to make it when we had guests
for lunch yesterday. I have seen proper south Indian restaurants serving this
starter (tastes way different from northern versions though) as there are many
takers of it down here too. Mine was a simple beginner’s kind; it turned slightly
salty otherwise the recipe was definitely good.</span></div>

a bigger admirer of this chutney than the starter itself. I keep licking it even
before the starter comes on table and after we finish the starter ;)<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">Raita, I
suppose is an intelligent preparation invented for making the simple curd more
appetizing to include with spice rich foods for offsetting the acidity that they
cause. By adding cooling ingredients like cucumber or onion we are just
attempting to make the soothing dish as a cooling dish as well. Apple and
pomegranate is another stunning combination to make raita outlandish. I
even felt minus the salt & chili, one can have it as a lovely healthy dessert.</span></div>

is a big fan club out in Tamil Nadu for this incomparably scrumptious dish, venpongal.
Some people reluctantly avoid it only for its high calories; the oats twist makes this dish inviting. Oats pongal is gooier than the regular pongal which makes it
even more striking. It is very pertinent baby food by picking out the pepper
corns.</span></div>

days back I had just reinvented this traditional recipe usually use only tur
dal and rice but I have given it some twist. The dish might be humble in its
looks, don’t under estimate its flavour, taste or nutrition. There are two
kinds of lovers of dosa; one the crisp dosa likers and other the soft dosa
likers, former being the majority. This lentil dosa can cater to both the types
of people by adjusting the proportion of rice-dal used, to get the texture you
prefer.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14pt; line-height: 150%;">Baingan
is Brinjal and this dish is more like a ‘kathirikai masiyal’ that we’ve in
south India. Here we like to eat it with steamed rice while in north it is
preferred with rotis mainly. Traditionally for Baigan ka bartha, large
eggplants are chosen and charred on stove before the skin is peeled to prepare
bartha as I din’t get large ones I just chopped them fine and used in the
recipe. This is so flavourful and totally different in texture from other
Brinjal recipes and so even people who detest Brinjal would like to try it.</span></div>
