forget the convulted versions. Read this: http://www.hinduwebsite.com/churning.asp
it also explains the symbolism behind the stories.

Thanks Mr. rajraj for the information about edible camphor.
my aunt has wriiten to me about the
pacha karpooram, also tulasi leaves.

Normally my M.I.Law will add this patcha karpooram
when she make sakkarai ponggal.
It has to be very very tiny pinch.
Otherwise the smell will be over powering.
For that reason we do not add that for cooking anything.

If anyone is interested , they can add the patchai karpooram
to the pancharmirtham.
Thanks, Kugan98

Suvai nga we have to thank you for posting,
day to day simple and tasty dishes for us.
Thanks again Suvai, keep posting.

Here is another super dish by our Suvai.
Tomato Cashew Nut Gravy.
The name itself is so rich, so is the taste.
Thanks Suvai nga, nice dish to serve to guests.
Kugan98.



4) Tomato & cashewnut curry......... This one is superb my aunts recipe...;-)
1/4 kg tomatoes chopped
1/4 cup cashew nuts chopped fine
1 cup plain milk or coconut milk...i used plain milk...becoz coconut um heavy /cashew nut um heavy.
3 onions chopped
2 Tblspn or less sambar powder or any curry powder
1" piece cinnamon
1Tblspn ghee
1/2 lime (pptional)
salt to taste

In ghee add the cinamon/then brown the onions & then tomatoes when water has evaporated from the tomatoes add in the podi & chopped cashew nuts...fry this well in medium fire then add in the milk & cover & simmer...till the cashew nut gets cooked & then the raw smell of podi goes.....u can add lime to this ...if u want...goes well with poori & dosai.
