People those who like kathirikai rasvangi will definitely love this too. My grand mother makes this frequently.
Ashgourd (pooshanikai) rasvangi:
Ash gourd 2 cups (cut into small pieces as we do for kootu)
tamarind
salt, haldi
channa dal a handful
Fry in tsp of oil and grind:
dhania 2 tbsp
thoor dal and channa dal 1 tbsp each
red chillies 4 to 5
Seasoning:
oil, mustard, hing & fenugreek seed.
Do the seasoning and add water with vegetable. Cook till it is soft. If you already soak channa dal in water, then, you can put it alongwith the veggie. That much of cooking is fine for dal.
Once done, add the powder, salt, haldi & tamarind allow them to boil for few mts. Add 2 tbsp of rice flour mixed with quarter cup of water and pour into the gravy, allow it to boil. Will be thicker in a couple of mts or so.
Garnish with curry and coriander leaves.

Hello R,Sowmya,
we must think abt a thread all abt Grandmoms recipes.These old way and method of quick cooking traditional delicious recipes are precious and when we make em here far away from our land,it reminds us not only abt them but makes us cosy and happy that they are always around us somewhere near blessing us and happy for us.
Let me know ur opinions too.

Hi bhargavi
That's a nice idea!In fact your post made me nostalgic.Thinking about it... there's LOTS I haven't learnt from my mom itself and definitely when we cook the traditional way we do get a sense of satisfaction which canot be described..It's a unique feeling.
I am determined.. when I go to India I am going to spend some time with my grandmom who is 85 and learn traditional recipes from her.
Regards
sowmya :D
Hi Bhargavi:

That is a good idea, Bhargavi..For the last few years only, my interest have been developing more towards cooking; so, did not learn properly from my mother or MIL.
Whenever go to India, if she makes something, I am so surprised to see. Anyways, shall we start a new thread and proceed?
Thanks for the suggestion.
That was so nice of you, honeydew and am so grateful to all of you.
Thanks.
Hi friends,
Since Bhargavi has posted a different version for poli, I am thinking of asking everyone's different pooranam recipes here. Will post here soon whatever I know.
Meanwhile, pls do contribute the pooranams' recipes alone whenever you guys are free.
Thanks.
