My cousin loves to eat cake with curd rice! :roll:

[RedPepper]

Once I saw a friend of mine eating ripe mango and pineapple sprinkled with salt and chilli powder. I thought it was silly. But later I have found out that some other people also doing this. Maybe it is common in some areas.

Yes, this is for the good reason they eat with salt and chilli....the reason is you'll never get sore throat.

[SenorJalapeno]

In the Philippines it is quite common to eat a green mango with anchovies (locally known as Bagoong or if you prefer my personal definition...Yuck!).

[Nichiro]

One grand old lady I knew used to eat Khichadi with Tea.
My wife loves Phulkas and Rasam.

[dev]

jilebi or kesari with curd rice is a good combi...

[RedPepper]

My cousin, when he was a kid, used to eat idli and dosa with sugar. He would eat with chutney and sambar, but first the dosa/idli needs to be sprinkled with sugar.
I have to call and ask him if he still does that! :)

[dev]

One of my cousin used to eat rice with sambar,rasam,curd & porial all mixed together... his logic was anyway U r gonna eat it all...why waste time eating it one by one... :lol:

Puri/chapathi with sugar is a good combi... make a roll & eat it as a snack... used to do this when I was a kid but not these days... But this isn't a weird combi as many ppl eat it this way...

[pooja.shankar]

ya ............. that rice with everything (but not thair sadam and rasam sadam together! but i mix all the veggies and everythin ) .. i still do it .sometimes

but there was one weirdo ..whu used to like it this way ...

he used to put buttermilk , curd , sambhar , veggies , and a BANANA on top and eat it ..

and i had indigestion ..seeing him have it that way

AHHH THIS Combination is GREAT!! You gotto try it Redpepper.Its very common in chennai and you can see street vedors selling this combination.Salt and chilli powder is good with guavas and cucumbers too.

[ssanjinika]

Curd rice with murukku or ribbon pakoda is a good combo.

[kavithasenthil]

My great grandma used to love to eat vadai/bonda/bajji with payasam. she dip the savouri in a bowl of payasam and eat. i tried it one day and it was not bad.

When we were kids(not really) we springle rice puffs on top of bournvita or tea, eat and drink. keep on springling until we finish the drink. Hmm have to try now and c whether i like it now a day too. :lol:

[Lotusrose]

Anybody like with fish varuval.

[Lotusrose]

Please you take Chapati with Chikken kuzhambu or Matton kuzhambu. This combination is very tasty food. I like this.


I love to take chapati with puli kuzhambu( or kaara kuzhambu ).... :huh: :poke: :clap: :thumbsup:

[Lotusrose]

No, jilebi & kesari are sweets. This is bad combination with rice ya. Only rice combination is adding kuzhambu and Rasam, Porial.
:hammer: :banghead: :wave:

[dev]

:lol:

Lotusrose, the discussion is abt silly combinations... all those U've mentioned are the common combinations...:)

[RedPepper]

:lol:

[Anoushka]

A bowl of tomato rasam with potato chips on top of it :) - my brother's favourite!

A cup of coffee/tea with mixture sprinkled on top of it - my granny's favourite!

[ssanjinika]

I love murukku - dipped and soaked in hot tea ofcourse :).

[Braandan]

1.I have seen people dipping rolled-up chappathi in a cup
of hot coffee and eating it.

2.I know of one person who eats "unni appam" (a sweet made of rice flour and jaggery deep fried in oil/ghee) along with idli-podi (gunpowder/molakaa podi).

3.A good way to consume dried up idlies is to cut them
into little pieces and make 'idli upma'. Just splutter musturd in some oil, add urad-dhal, curry leaves and broken dried red-chillies and saute well. Then add the pieces of idli and stir well.

[sujathakannan]

My sister loves to add kara bondi to curd and eat it.

- Sujatha

[Braandan]

kara boondi in curd is called "raita", right?

[Thattai]

as combos go, I quite like to eat curd rice with rasam. I have met only one other person who likes this combo...

[dev]

curd rice & rasam is a good combo... I've seen many in my family who love that combo... & even upma with rasam is good...

[vm]

My brother used to have curd rice and tomato sauce

[Anoushka]

curd rice and mango (fruit ) is another lovely but strange combination

[Braandan]

Fried papadum pieces in awal (poha/powa) is some people favourite way of eating awal (poha/powa/milled rice).

Some people have paayasam, by adding pieces of banana (preferably the nenthran variety of Kerala) and also pieces of fried papadum, in it.

[Raikkonen]

What about Pappad and Milagu Rasam..

[ayeshasadique]

my hubby likes his mint chutney with sugar in it
my daughter takes idli podi mixed with ketchup

[ayeshasadique]

i once was served apple slices sprinkled with black pepper powder by my dads colleage.

[Braandan]

In Delhi almost all "fruit chaat" wallahs will sprinkle pepper powder and rock salt mixture on to fruit pieces. If you don't want it you have to tell them in advance before they prepare the chaat. Ayesha's dad's collegues may be from Delhi.

[Raikkonen]

Omlette and Apple Jam

[dev]

Omlette and Apple Jam

:shock: :roll: :lol:

[Raikkonen]

Uppu Karuvadu and Cadbury Chocolate

[Raikkonen]

Keerai KAri + Arugambul Juice + Vegetbale Oorugai + Coke Vanilla

[ayeshasadique]

raikonen...do u really eat all these combinations.....i wonder how u are still alive?

[ayeshasadique]

lol :twisted: :lol: :lol:

[kavithasenthil]

scary combination raikonen!!

[Raikkonen]

haha..
Athan silly combination..

[RedPepper]

Omlette and Apple Jam

:shock:

Do you really eat these two? or is it just an imagination?

[Raikkonen]

[rajshank]

Upma in a bowl of piping hot sambhar with ghee on top ...yummyyyy

Upma with sambhar and curd in a bowl

Vadu Manga with Upma or Idlis or Dosas and even Rotis

Cheese sandwich dipped in tomato soup

ever tried Chapati soaked in Sambhar??

[Raikkonen]

Meen Varuval and Apple Juice

[Ramakrishna]

Uppu Karuvadu and Cadbury Chocolate

Ada loosaaaa :lol: :lol: :lol: :rotfl:

[Braandan]

Chapathi soaked in sambar does not look silly. Sambar made for lunch is left over for dinner and it is chapathi for dinner, then the best combination is this, not to waste the sambar and to save time on a separate curry for chapathi!

[kavithasenthil]

Upma in a bowl of piping hot sambhar with ghee on top ...yummyyyy

Upma with sambhar and curd in a bowl

Nothing above is silly. everything is tasty and normal. :D

[bingleguy]

i ve seen some ppl having

Chappati mixed with ghee n sugar ! :roll:

[narayanan]

tear chappathi into pieces, add boiled milk and sugar, soak it for a while. good combo actually for kids who dont like to eat 'kaaram'.

Burger King veg. burger with onion ring sauce (actually that would add a bit spice)

[Orange]

My mom and brother used to have laddu mixed with mashed banana

[dev]

My mom and brother used to have laddu mixed with mashed banana

I too love this combi... esp when the ladoos are too sweet for me, I add bananas to it to reduce the sweetness...

[ayeshasadique]

me and my brother eat chappatis with ghee and sugar too....actually we eat dosas, idlis, puris, chappatis anything with ghee and sugar :)

[dev]

puris with sugar is an yummy combi... With chapathi too... but a sinful indulgence...:(

[sowmeia]

[quote="narayanan"]tear chappathi into pieces, add boiled milk and sugar, soak it for a while. good combo actually for kids who dont like to eat 'kaaram'.

I like the idea..will definetely try..i always end up with day old chapatis..anybody have anymore ideas?

as for weird combos..i am a veggie lover..i end up having veggies with almost anything..try corn,peas and carrot mixed with pori!! little salt and chili powder helps..

peanut powder is another fav of mine..try sprinkling a little in maggi!!

[dev]

For old chapathis, try this... cut them into meduim sized strips.

Take a mix of vegs like shredded carrots, cabbages & finely chopped beans & capscium & onion cut into thin long strips... Heat oil & add the onions & stir fry till it turns transparent... (add tomatoes now if req)add the other vegs & stir fry until done but still crunchy... Add a bit of tomato sauce(u can avoid it if U r adding tomatoes), req salt & chilly powder & garam masala.. cook for a min & then add the chapathis... heat thorough... done...

this is what i do too .... to give it a chinese touch, cut off the garam masala, add a dash of soy sauce and sprinkle spring onions

[Braandan]

Warm plain croissants for some time. Have with oil-less idly-molako-podi (gunpowder molakapodi used to take dosas and idlies)

[Surya]
