Suvai, be brave and try the green chillie chutney.
Try out the cake with the cup measurement.
Little bit more or less is o.k
Take care Suvai, it's nice to see you in the forum.
Thanks and take care, Kugan98
Dev, very very happy that your brinjal ka salan came out well.
Dev, once you pour the sauce on the chop suey, the noodles will soften a bit.
It will not be difficult to eat. The taste will be nice.
Oh! your kutti is only going to school in June.
I have a relative, who is going to Trichy to join her 3 kids in school there in June. The eldest is already 11 years, I do not know how the children are going to cope there. She says education here is no good.:huh:
Thanks, take care, Kugan98
My dear friends, a close friend of mine gave me this recipe and asked me to try it out. She said she tasted in a friend's house and it was that tasty.
Well since I do not cook fish, I tried it out with cauliflower.
It was truly tasty. Just pour it over your soft iddlis or oothappam.
Let it soak and enjoy. Thanks, Kugan98
