Thanks Suvai, you are always present, when ever I think about you.
So you know how much I miss you:-D

Achocho Suvai, I thought you liked zucchini.
You have given few recipes using zucchini, I believe:confused2:

Suvai athoda I am sure you get zucchini a lot in Canada.
Only here it is very expensive.

Suvai, you can use lemon juice instead of vinegar.
Vindaloo naale vinegar thaan. You can use with cauliflower, broccoli, or even carrot.

Yes, I too love the tomato mint chutney, it goes well with iddli and dosai.
Suvai, oneh-ondeh is a Malaysian kuih, where we use glutinous flour, or sticky rice flour.
I think I have posted the recipe before. Anyway I will post the picture for you.

Thanks and take care, Kugan

Suvai I am glad you liked the paruppu urundai kulambu.
Suvai, I had a relative from India last week, you give her any vege and she will cook it in Indian style.

You know the water convolvulus, or we call it the kangkong keerai.
Normally the style is to cook it as a poriyal.
Or the Malaysians cook it with shrimp paste, a very famous Chinese dish.

My relative made it into a kutoo:smokesmirk:
It tasted nice, I will post the recipe soon.

Thanks and take care, Kugan

amaaam k....zuchinni inga very cheap....i always felt it had no taste what so every lol....except after making yr recipes it changed my views....i guess....it needs a lot more coaxing with spices & karam....to make it stand out as a vegetable....i like very tender ones that we can use raw in salads...;-)

k...zuchiniya expensive??? ada raamaaa.....:noteeth: wonder why it cant grow in plenty over there....

oh yes i have given a few recipes becoz....it was either given by my friends or family....;-) athaan soliteney.....enaku .zuchini ya pidika vacha thu neenga thaango..:noteeth:

ohhh vindaloo la vinegar thaan main ingri ya? will have to try it with the vegies mentioned & lemon juice.

ohhh ondeh is malaysian dish ah....:noteeth:

onga guest kodutha puthu vitha keerai kootu recipe podunga...inga kidaikara keeraiyavachi adjust pannikaren :noteeth: never heard of that kingkong keerai....:rotfl:
