You are welcome, foodlover.
And, recently, viewed this modified version of sathu maavu; if u r interested, can give a try.
All the grains are in the same measurements-100 g
kambu, ragi, kaaramani, p.payaru, wheat whole, black chick peas, white maize(corn), urad dal with skin, horse gram, field beans, maize(makka cholam).
Procedure:
Dry fry each ingredients separately and grind nicely just like the other sathu maavu.
If adults or grown up kids wants to eat, can make like nombu adai by mixing with jaggery syrup, dates, raisins, cashew and it is really tasty.
Good luck!!

Hello foodlover,
As far as I know, I dont prefer to store food in the freezer considering the health factor. Recently, went to India; made food for 10 days which I kept in the refrigerator.
Here are the items I made-
1. thengai podi (with dry coconut powder)
2. tomato onion mixture to make thakkali rice
3. aloo poha or any other upma
4. puliyodharai
5. vathal kuzhambu or milagu kuzhambu
6. gun powder or paruppu podi
7. urulai kizhangu podi
8. kathirikai podi curry (can mix with rice)
9. ginger thuvayal
10. idly, dosa batter with some chutney but w/o coconut
This is how I made and put the no. in order accordingly which will get spoiled at first. I also prepared a couple of gravies, but dont remember. Totally, it came for 10 days incl. pulikaichal. There is no point in taking too much of tamarind items which is not good for health.
Anyways, Mrs.Mano will suggest you with better ideas.
Bye.

Dear Suganthi!
I have already posted the recipe for ‘OOTHTHAPPAM’ in this same thread. You can see it in yr attachment.
About raita- normally roasted cumin powder and finely chopped mint leaves are added in the raita. For extra flavour- you can grind a green chilli with ½ sp of shredded ginger and 1 tbsp of coriander leaves and 1 tbsp of mint leaves and add this paste with ½ sp of roasted cumin powder to 2 cups of fresh curd. Try this method and give me the feedback.

Dear foodlover!
About baby food, I think it is better to follow the information given by an experienced mother like R. Because what we followed are entirely different to the system followed by the present mothers.
About storing food- you can prepare lot of podi varieties like paruppu podi, gun powder, curry leaves powder and pepper podi etc. You can make a few types of vathal kuzhambu without onions, puli kaychal like R said.
