Tofu masala looks yummy. Can I substitute the same with the panneer as I am not a big fan of Tofu. Will it taste good?
Hello Kugan akka...
Long time posting.. Spicy tofu looks sooo yummy.. I cooked beans/peanut side dish and also spinach-potato dish recently.. My husband and me both us of us enjoyed it thoroughly..
Thanks akka for your concerns, my place wasn't affected much during the storm. We had power, so not a big problem. Also i do remember travelling on roads, where the traffic lights weren't working and traffic was messed up. The atm's don't work and so are the petrol bunks. so we were fully prepared this time. Since kitchen stove is also electric, we had to prepare food also in advance. i made your ladysfinger puli kozhambu lots in advance and kept so that it would stay for extended time :)
Also akka and others in the forum, can you please give me some tips/ideas for finishing cooking fast. I've got a job recently and i want to cook in the morning freshly rather than cook in the night itself and keep. But i donno how well that will work out.
Take care..
Akka, have you come across chicken kabsa? my hubby once ate somewhere and since then is yearning for that dish again. But its not in any restaurants in the part of the country we stay.. Its a saudi dish i guess.. if so can you please tell me...

K, made the CL kuzhambu and it was liked by all...:) I also tried Selvi's CL chutney and received mixed reviews as some din't like the raw flavour of CL... aprom meedhi aana chutneyaa enna seiyuradhu...:think: Viduvena naan... I made pickle out of it...:lol:
Here's the recipe for curry leaves pickle/ karuvepillai thokku...
curry leaves - 1 hand full (tender leaves)
dry red chilly - 5 big
garlic cloves - 4 medium size
tamarind - a nellikai size
salt - reqd
1. In a kadai add 1/2 tsp oil, in slow fire, fry red chilly make it sure, it should not turn black. then grind altogether like a fine paste except garlic, once it is ground finely add garlic, again grind to a smooth paste.
2. Now give tadka with gingelly oi-4 or 5 tblsp, rai, urad dhal, methi seeds and mustard powder.
3. Transfer the chutney into the oil,adjust salt n chilly and keep sautéing on low flame for 10 mins or until the mixture truns thick and starts to form a ball and oozes out oil(oil will ooze out only if u add lots of oil-more than the above qty).
4. Store in a clean jar.
5. Mine lasted for 2 days but I guess the pickle/thokku will have a shelf-life of 1 week or so if enough oil is added to it.
This pickle/thokku goes very well with rice, curd rice, poori,chapathis,idli and dosai...
