  I am from kovilpatti in Tuticorin Dt. The above receipe is bit close, but any one help me to find the typical parotta salna recipe which is served in Non Veg hotels in southern TamilNadu like Kovilpatti, tuticorin , dindugal , virudunagar. I have been trying for a long time. Any help is appreciated

  Fish SALNA
  1/2 kg of sliced fish; 1 onion finely sliced;
  3-4 cloves garlic - crushed;
  2 tablespoons oil; 1/2-1 teaspoon curry powder or Kolumbu podi
  1/2 cup tomatoes
  1/4 cup water; salt to taste.
  
  Heat oil in frying pan and fry the sliced onions and garlic until the onion are translucent. Add the curry powder and fry for a further 2 mins.on low heat. Now add tomatoes & continue to fry till tomatoes are soft, add water, and salt; cook 4 minutes more.
  
  Meanwhile rinse the fish slice, drain & keep aside, add 1/4 tspn saffron pwd, salt, & 1/2 tspn chillie pwd with 2-3 tbspns lime juice- mix fish slices well so that the masala coates the slices; shallow fry lightly, when the curry is ready add these slices & bring to a bubble, remove & serve.
  
  
  In case U do not want to use fish, U could use Brinjals-in which case fry the Brinjals & add to the curry.

  The above are not the recipes for salna that is served in roti stalls in tirunelveli. I can see what subbu was getting to when he started this request. I would be a great favor for all the rotti-salna lovers.
  Anyone knows of a good frozen rotti available in the US. A good rotti recipe can help as well, if it is easy enough..........

  Hai, I can help you with the recipe for parotta salna which is famous in cuddalore district.
  ingredients;
  chicken 1/2 kg for 6 -8 people(chicken is mainly for the flavour)
  onion finely cut 2
  tomato 2
  green chilli 1or 2
  ginger garlic paste little
  cinnamon,clove each 2-3
  coconut200gms
  peanut/ground nut fried 100gms
  pepper 10
  jeeragam 1 tsp
  red chilli powder2 tsp
  daniya powder 3 tsp
  coriander leaves
  procedure;
  grind coconut,ground nut,pepper and jeeragam with adequate water.
  
  To 1 tbsp oil in a pan add clove,cinnamon then ginger garlic paste then add onion fry till it becomes light brown then add tomato and green chillies, fry nicely then add red chilli powder, daniya powder fry for few secs., add chicken fry all together then add water , when chicken is cooked and the content boils slow the fire and add the ground paste. cook for 5-10 minutes. add some coriander leaves at the end.I think this recipe gives a taste as similar as the one we eat in the hotel.Best of luck.
