yaaravadhu senju nalla illaina ennai thitta koodathu...:P

Selviem, thank you very much for your beautiful compliments.
Sometimes what we think is a village dish, at times will turn out super.

My aunt at times will ask her maid, to grind few dried red chillies, with little shallots, tamarind, and salt.
Then she will add little sugar with the gingelly oil.
No tempering all raw. you know it will be a super chutney for suda suda dosais :lol:

Thanks Kugan98

Dev, thanks for your nice post.
I will post the recipe for the pudalankkai crispies.

Thanks Dev, for the moong dal pakodi.
I think Rose asked for the recipe.

I have one made with whole green gram. Slightly different little ingredients. I will post it soon.
Thanks take care, Kugan98
