Immm no response for the sprouted green peas kulambu.
Actually the ANNAMA was telling me,
konjam ithu, konjam athu, oru killu ithu,
arai kai ithu. Well I took down each and every word.
Came home and made it into a recipe.
Tried and it tasted very nice, very nutritious also.
She gave me another version of dry sprouted green peas
recipe also. Not only that, a very good multi paruppu podi also.
Very good with steaming hot rice and a spoon of gingelly oil or ghee. Thanks, Kugan98.

[kugan98]

Dev ennangga ara puli iru pulinu kekuringga.

Ara pulina paathi puli.
Iru pulina rendu puli :lol:

Just joking Dev, I will soon post the recipes.
There are many ways and different ingredients
used in these kulambus.
Some use black eyed beans, some use dal.
Some do not use any at all.

Let me confirm with my aunt for the recipe.
Since it is a Iyengar special, worried it might
not be authentic.

You are right ara puli is less puli,
and iru puli is tamarind and curds.
Look out for the recipes soon.
Take care, Kugan98

[suvai]

Suvai nga I am so happy that you liked the tomato rice.
Nowadays I have to learn how to make simple rice
to give the children in the lunch box.

This is a new headache after becoming vegetarians.
This morning made simplified brinjal rice for them.
They usually take some fruits, yogurt and either a rice, noodles,
sandwiches and things like that.

Suvai nga glad you liked the podi too.
Take care Suvai nga, Kugan98

[kugan98]

[tscii]Here comes my aunty's version of potato chops.


POTATO CHOPS (my aunty’s)

Ingredients:
300 grms potatoes.
1 tsp red chillie powder
1 tsp corn flour
Little salt
Oil for frying

2 big onions sliced fine
1 tomato chopped fine
1 tsp ginger paste
1 tsp garlic paste
1 heaped tsp chillie powder
½ tsp turmeric powder
½ tsp corn flour
¼ tsp gram masala powder
A pinch of jaggery
Salt to taste
1 tbs oil

Method:
Wash and peel the potatoes.
Cut them into long strips.
Add in the chillie powder, corn flour
and salt. Marinate them for about 30 minutes.
It will ooze out lot of liquid.
Drain and semi fry in oil. Keep aside.

Heat a wok with oil, add in the sliced onions.
Sauté well, add in the ginger and garlic paste.
Sauté again, add in the chopped tomatoes.
Stir nicely till it becomes mushy.
Add in the chillie powder, turmeric powder,
garam masala powder, corn flour , salt and jaggery.

Mix nicely till the oil seperates, add in the fried potatoes.
Take care and turn the potato slices slowly.
The gravy will thicken and coat the potato slices.
Keep on turning the slices till they look dry and with
a rich brownish red colour.
Dish out and serve.


Note: I think Selviem's mom's version would be more tastier
with the pottu kadalai flour and cashew paste.

[kugan98]

Suvai nga I have to thank you very much.
You started the subject of potato chops, by asking
Sudha ma for the recipe.

Well now we have so many types of recipes to
cook the potato.
I remember our cook in India.
She would boil the potatoes, cube them.
Then she will temper cinnamon stick, cardamoms and aniseeds in oil. later add little curry leaves.
Then she will satue finely sliced onions in the oil.
when the onions slightly brown, she will add in chillie powder and turmeric powder. At once she will pour 1 cup of water.
She will add in the boiled potatoes and salt.
She will cook till the water evaporates.
Dish out and serve. This was the only method cooked
in our house in India.

Now we have so many methods to cook the simple potato.
I hope all our friends will post simple recipes that are cooked in their homes. Then we will have many varieties

Thanks again Suvai nga.
Take care Kugan98.

[kugan98]

Selviem, I would be very grateful, if
you can advise me on what you give your
children in their lunch box.

Our children leave early morning at 6.20 a.m
They come home at about 5 p.m
After school they have extra curriculum which
is compulsory in their school.

I have to give them snack for the interval,
and food for lunch.
Its my daily headache. Thanks, Kugan98

Well a vegetarian version can be done.

Dev, my M.I.Law used to help in a hospital as a volunteer.
There are lot of ladies who come from different embassies
to serve in the hospital.
So she has gathered lot of recipes from different countries.
One of those is this pho bo noodle soup.

I will post the recipe soon.
Thanks, Kugan98

Thanks. Kugan98

[NM]

Mrs K : I tried the soya pulao and soya 65 - both were super duper hit! The pulao was defcious and finger licking good! My Anni and son loved it, not to mention Ananthiy. I didn't use chillie as the 2 yound ones don't take hot/spicy food yet. I added mushroom and some mix vege instead :) YUMM! Thanks for the recipes.

Tomorrow is Mushroom briyani .....

[kugan98]

NM, thanks, thanks for the feed back.
I am glad every one liked the dishes.

Today I made a vege biryani, a new style.
Recipe by one of my relatives.

Here is the kalkandu ponggal requested by the friend.


KALKANDU SAATHAM

Ingredients:

200 grms raw rice
200 grms kalkandu crushed
500 ml milk
200 ml water
10 cashew nuts
10 raisins
4 cardamoms crushed
2 tbs ghee
A pinch of salt
A pinch of pachai karpuram (optional)

Method:
Wash the rice, add the milk and water.
Cook on a low heat till the rice is nicely cooked.
(you can use a masher and mash the rice nicely)

Add the crushed kalkandu and keep sauting till completely dissolved.
The ponggal will now be in a semi solid state.
It will become thicker as it cools.

Slightly fry the cashew nuts and raisins in a little ghee.
Now add the fried cashews, the remaining ghee, crushed cardamoms,
pachai karpuram, salt to the cooked rice.
Mix everything well and remove from the stove.
The kalkandu ponggal is ready.


NOTE: Some people like to add 50 grms of
roasted moong dal along with the rice before cooking.
The ponggal will look slightly yellowish in colour,
when the moong dal is added.

kugan,
When I was posting lyrics in MOY section RR wrote a script for sorting the lyrics posted in alphabetic order provided you fill up the subject line as required by the script. Later I used it in classical music section also. The script does not seem to work now. You might want to ask RR to fix the problem. Then you can update all the subject lines and post the link to the sort routine in the very first post. All people have to do is to click on that link to see the list. You can see that MOY and classical music sections. You wont see it alphabetical order ! :(
Hope this helps.
You don't have to fold your hands for this. This is the least the administrator can do for you ! :lol:

Dev, I am posting the vegetarian version of the pho bo.
Actually the taste and sweetness comes from the beef, knuckle and leg bones with the bone marrow.
I have used fried tofu instead of the meat.
Actually, you need an acquired taste to enjoy this meal.
Most of these types of dishes will be bland.
Well try and see. Thanks, Kugan98

Using a slotted spoon scoop out few fried tofu on to the noodles.
Ladle the hot broth over the noodles.
Serve the bowls of pho bo with the scallions, bean sprouts,
lime wedges, sliced red chillies, mint and coriander leaves,

[AudazJay]

Kugan sis,

My friends and I tried your kalkandu sadham. I was really hoping that it will turn out like the one in the picture you posted. Ours turned out to be dry. It was my mistake- I might have cooked it longer than I was supposed to :oops: Anyway, the birthday boy loved it. He said that the pongal tasted exactly the way he liked it, but I should have known better. It wasn't sweet enough. We might have not put in the right amount of kalkandu, I guess.
I'll try it again the next time around. Hopefully it will turn out the way yours did :D

P.s: Thanks for sending me the recipe at the right time. We would have been lost without you. Thanks again.

I said I had chapathi with sugar. He was :frightened: :shaking:

[kugan98]

[tscii]There are many ways to cook this famous Curry Mee.
Normally big pots of the curry is made, and it will be simmering hot. The mee and garnishes are put into a bowl, and the very, very hot gravy will be poured on the mee.
You will perspire eating this hot curry mee.
I have made a very simple method with instant noodles.
Thanks, take care.


SIMPLE VEGETARIAN MEE CURRY

Ingredients:

1 piece of instant dry noodles
1 ½ tbs of curry paste
1 big onion sliced
2 pips garlic smashed
2 long beans cut into 1 inch in length
2 tbs beans sprouts
½ cup of fried tofu chunks
1 piece of “ assam keping” its like kodampuli (optional)
2 ½ cups of vege stock or water
½ cup low fat milk or evaporated milk
1 tbs oil
Salt to taste

1 fresh red chillie sliced
Little chopped spring onions

Method:

Heat a wok with the oil. Add in the smashed garlic.
Sauté it well, add in the sliced onions, let them brown a little.
Now add in the Thai red curry paste, sauté well till oil seperates.

Now add in the vege stock, add in the assam keeping if using.
Add also the long beans, let it come to a slow boil.

Now add in the instant noodles, it will be cooked in 2 minutes.
Add in the fried tofu and the beans sprouts.
Add in the salt, and the milk.
Let it boil once and remove.
Serve hot garnished with the sliced chillies and spring onions.
Curry mee is one pot meal which is quite rich and spicy.
It tastes best when is hot and steaming.


Note: You can add any vege of your choice.
Like thin strips of carrots, small cauliflower florets and so on.
For garnishing you can even use thin strips of cucumbers.

Normally coconut milk is used for this curry mee.
I like to use low fat or evaporated milk.



VEGETARIAN CURRY PASTE:

100gm red chillies(deseed)
20gm dried red chillies(soak in lukewarm water)
3 pips garlic
4 shallots
20gm coriander seeds
10gm turmeric root
little galangal
Little sugar
1 tsp tamarind paste
2 stalks lemongrass
¼ cup oil

Method:

First step prepare the vegetarian curry paste. Combine all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend to a fine paste,adding a little water .Pour in a wok with heated oil and fry fragrant .If the paste is too dried you can add a little more oil. Saute until oil floats on top.You need 1 ½ tbs of the paste only.Left over paste can be refrigerated and used to saute with vegetables.

The things needed for the curry mee:

PS tamby, this Singapore noodles will be bland in taste.
You know normally they will give you a hot chillie sambal, made with prawn paste called "belachan" in our language.

For other types of meehoon, we will add chillie paste in oil, along with the smashed garlic and onions.
Thats what our NM has told. (she is a Malaysian :o )

You can even add chillie paste along with this Singapore noodles.

Our mamak mee (noodles) also has a paste of its own for the oomph.

Take care tamby, Kugan98

[kugan98]

Dev, thanks for your post.

Dev, this mamak mee is very versatile.
Just with the chillie paste some cabbage, you can
dish out a tasty dish.

[kugan98]

Try this Sri Langkan dish.

SEENI SAMBAL

Ingredients:
800 grms onions sliced.
500 grms Maldives fish..pounded to tiny bits, with a pestle.
6 tbs chillie paste
1 cup tamarind juice
1 cup coconut milk
1 cinnamon stick
1 star anise
few cloves
2 sprig curry leaves.
2 lemon grass braised
1 screw pine leaf cut into 2 inch length
2 tbs oil
salt to taste
sugar to taste.

Method:
Heat the oil and saute the spices before adding the lemon grass and screw pine leaves.
Once fragrant, add the onions and keep stirring.
When the onions turn brown, add the chillie paste.
Fry till oil rises, add the cleaned fish, and tamarind juice.
Allow the fish to cook, add salt and sugar.
Lastly add the coconut milk, and let it cook dry.

My own tip... soak the pounded fish in boiling water.
Wash and clean, to get rid of the smell.
The Seeni sambal:

kugan,
When I was posting lyrics in MOY section RR wrote a script for sorting the lyrics posted in alphabetic order provided you fill up the subject line as required by the script. Later I used it in classical music section also. The script does not seem to work now. You might want to ask RR to fix the problem. Then you can update all the subject lines and post the link to the sort routine in the very first post. All people have to do is to click on that link to see the list. You can see that MOY and classical music sections. You wont see it alphabetical order ! :(
Hope this helps.
You don't have to fold your hands for this. This is the least the administrator can do for you ! :lol:

Ada Devuda! seeni sambal vegetarian nah?

I can only think of adding deep fried very very small strips
of tofu or panner to this sambal.

This sambal is eaten with rice cubes called kiribath.
Its like our nasi lemak, or coconut milk rice.
only that they cut the rice into cubes.


I miss their boiled pana kilangu.
A sweet appam made with ripe panapalam juice.

Their famous seafood kool made with the flour of the panam kilanggu :oops: no more :lol:

Good morning to all.

Hi K

I made the onion sambal today. It was good. But I made very small quantity. I reduced the chillies to make small quantity, so the dish was not spicy. Felt it would have been better if I had added two more chillies.

Will make it once again, as now I know how it looks and tastes.

This sambal is eaten with rice cubes called kiribath.

Kugan sis, kiribath must be the Malaysian version of ketupat- rice dumplings which are cut into cubes and wrapped with coconut leaves. Best taken with satay :wink:

Btw, seeni sambal looks spicy and yummy :slurp:

[sudha india]

Kugan ka

I used to love this Seena sambal, can you make it without the fish :|

Yes, vegetarian version please...

I've turned vegetarian again-Thanks to AOL class... but God knows for how long... :oops:

Er :confused2: I thought you were a Herbivore from birth :confused:

No No ......Dev is OMNIVORE :lol:

[kugan98]

Nm thanks for your post and suggestion of using the
mushroom stems.
I thought of the tofu or panner because it will be easily
available.
Thanks Nm, the success of the Kugan's thread is all because of the support of all our friends from Kugan's kitchen.
Thanks again, keep writing. Take care, Kugan98

Sudhama I am glad you liked the onion sambal.

Today, since a friend wanted to come for lunch and requested for our nasi lemak. (coconut milk rice)
So I made the rice , onion sambal, fried peanuts, cucumber slices and stir fried a vege called kangkong
This is the combo for our nasi lemak.

For tea I made china grass jelly, local kuih kosui, pumpkin bajji,
and mysore bonda. I also had a little of the coffee cake made the previous day.

O.K Sudhama, today I also made your dish.
Posting it soon. Take care, Kugan98

[kugan98]

You are right tamby, it's like our ketupat.
I will post a recipe as how my friend did it in her house
in Sri Lanka.
According to her this seeni sambal and kiribath are a must for all occasions, like New year and things.
Take care tamby, Kugan98

[kugan98]

Sudha's Recipe


Planning to make milagu kootu ?
After frying the ingredients for grinding, the power goes off.....
No way to grind....

Here is a way out. Now kootu making made more simple...

The way I made today......

Palak keerai cut well (there was one small bangalore kathrika also which I added) and boiled.

Thuvaram paruppu boiled. Keep aside

Add required salt (and little manjal) to the keerai and boil till cooked. Add required pepper powder and paruppu podi (ready mix) and add the paruppu when cooked.

Kadugu, jeeragam, perungayam and curry leaves thaalikkavum.

Super kootu ready in just 5 mins.



Note: I too took the easy way out by using the paruppu podi. Current cut vaalga :lol:

Dev, kosu illangga, kosui


Kuih Kosui

A popular Malaysian dessert.

Ingredients
Gula Melaka syrup (A):
250g gula Melaka (palm sugar)
50g soft brown sugar
500ml water
2 pandan leaves, shredded and knotted

Cake mix (B):
100g tapioca flour
180g rice flour
450ml water
1 tsp alkaline water
1/2 grated coconut, use only the white flesh (i.e. do not grate close to the shell)
1/2 tsp salt

Method
Bring gula melaka, brown sugar, water and pandan leaves to a boil to dissolve the sugars. Strain the syrup.

Mix both types of flour and water in a mixing bowl. Stir the syrup into the flour mixture. Add alkaline water. Cook the mixture over a gentle low heat into a slightly thickened batter.

Spoon batter into a greased tray. Steam over rapid boiling water for about 1/2 an hour or till cooked.
It is cooked if you insert a knife and it comes out clean.

Mix grated white coconut with salt and steam for four to five minutes. Remove and spread on a big plate to cool.

Leave the steamed kuih kosui to cool completely before cutting it into cubes. Toss kuih kosui in grated coconut and serve.

untill all milk is absorbed.
Remove the pandan leaf.
Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon.
Then press the rice in a cake tin to a depth of about 2.5 cm.
