Sorry about that!
So sweet of kugan aka to pass on all that information to you..

About the universal photo - yarukku theriyum meera - neenga vellakari madri irukathala naanga yarum kandu pidika mattom nenachu antha photo post panneengalo!!
but we are killadis ok.. athu neenga dana ;)
Just deviating ... Yarachum vijay tv, kitchen superstars patheengala.. Its in youtube.. I just happened to see an episode couple of days back
and its so addictive.. Of course no one can cook that non-sense they are cooking, but reality show wise its so addictive..
Sangeetha - Welcome to KK where you can interact with some great cooks.. (i'm a newbie too so excuse me.. nan ippo dan raitha range la irukken.. i will slowly pick up :) )
Take care and bye..
Thank u Priyasri and PS Thamby for the welcome. Just because of u Kugan I have bought Bok Choy for first time in life though came across it several times i visited chinese market. I made bok choy in oyster sauce. my husband is like what veg it is? i replied bok choy and he asked how come i know the name. So excited to learn new things. Thank u very much.
dev u were asking for madurai mudaliar shop idly recipe in KK5. actually i saw a video 2 yrs back from kairali tv about the shop and the master cook there show us how to do their fried egg idly. here is the link for that video
http://www.currychannel.com/fried-eg...adurai-recipe/
unfortunately the link has become private now. i am bit week in registering and things, may be if u register they will let u watch i am not sure.
but Kugan was right they pureed tomato carrot onion and made a gravy and used it as a secret ingredient.
for past 2 yrs i am cooking in my life. 40% i cook bad dishes 35% medium level cooking 25% good cooking. sometime (40%) really sodapify so much and waste the food. but still like to try with all spirit. I prefer home food. My husband likes hotel food a lot. 1 yr in europe 1.5 yrs in USA soon will move from here. dont know where till now. was cooking somehow regularly but was not showing variety. still not managing the house chores abroad. thats abt me . I am a vegetarian. so this group is perfect for me.
one question to Kugan or whom ever who cooks 50% of her daily menu. how come u all cook so much like for lunch upto 5 items. that too the amt (the containers from pics here looks bigger to me) . I too have big hand so if some one can give me tips to reduce the quantity for two people it wud be nice. I can't eat refrigerated food (i know too much :( ) but has been brought up like that . "kandal aanalum kasi kattu mathiri " "ka vayiru kanji naalum, fresha cook pannu." so even if I cook even a bit more for lunch its gonna be waste. so i really need tips to cook for just 2.
though we both r slightly plumpy i cook only 1 cup rice on weekdays. one gravy (sambar, kootu etc ) and one dry curry if i cook extra like rasam or one more extra curry or patchadi like that its mere waste, all the items will have little left overs which will not suit the dinner tiffin items. morning we regularly take one cup coffee one porridge and fruits with enough gap. do u all have 2 kids thats the reason u all cook 4 items for lunch? or do u all cook 4 items and make sure nothing will be left over? defiantly need to master cooking little. one cup rice is perfect for us that i know for sure. on week ends it will be 1.5 cups. so do u all eat the kootu , curry etc without rice so as to finish it all.
Got another akka :)Quote:

Glad to know that you have tried so many recipes.
Yes, we all post mostly tested recipes, so slim chance of dish going wrong.
Kugan is away on personal reasons.
Kugan mostly posts vegetarian recipes.
Sangeetha , the pictures posted are mostly spreads cooked for functions.
That's the reason the dishes look big.
I think most dishes posted will be suitable for two persons.
Well if you think the amount is big, just divide the recipe into two.
In cooking kaaram, salt and things are up to induviudual taste.
As Kugan says the recipe is only a guide line.
You can plus and minus things as you like to your taste.
Well sangeetha, I am a working woman, goes to work at 7.30 a.m,
and back in the evening about 7.00 p.m
I have children, so what i do is that, I cook on weekends and stock up my fridge.
My dishes will be lined up from monday to friday.
I cannot effort to cook daily fresh for my family.
to make it worst, weekends, we have laundry, house cleaning,
extra cl;asses for children and so on. So that is our life.
Glad that you are able to serve steaming dishes for your family.
Thanks and take care, Meerra

Thanks and take care, Meerra
