Thanks for the reply Mrs. MAno.
A very happy and prosperous new year to you and all fellow hubbers.
I made Microwave rava kesari, rava khichidi and ulunthu vada as per your recipes today. I messed up the kesari as I was in a hurry and read the proportions wrong. I took some firefighting measures, so the taste was pretty good though the texture was sad :cry: But intend to re-make it the proper way next weekend as it is one of my husband's fav sweets.
The khichidi was very good. The vada was also tasting very good. Also nice and crisp and did not soak too much oil as i added lentils also.
Only thing was I ground it in the mixie, so had to add more water than required to make the thing grind, so it did not hold the shape. So instead I made bondas with it and the taste and texture were both very good as I mentioned earler.
Mrs. MAno, any tips for grinding vada atta in the mixie? I don't have a wet grinder. I tried with very little water, but the atta was just not moving. Hence had to add more water.
Thanks again for the recipes, and a very happy new year again to one and all... :)

Hi Mrs.Mano,
Is boiled rice= par-boiled rice or pulungal arisi?... Should we use raw rice or par-boiled rice for aappam?...

Dear Thattai!
Thanks a lot for the feedback of rawa kesari, rawa kitchadi and ulunthu vadai.
For grinding unlunthu for vadai- soak the ulunthu with water and keep the bowl in the fridge. When grinding it, sprinkle the water little by little to the black gram in the mixi and run the mixi for a second. Then again sprinkle some water and then grind. Thus you can grind the ulunthu into a thick forthy batter.
Here is the recipe of ‘Dry mutton chukka’ for you. Hope you will enjoy it.

Boneless mutton pieces- 1/2 kilo

Dear Suvai!
I haven’t posted ‘Microwave ulunthuvadai’. It is not possible to prepare methu vadai in a microwave oven. Thattai have mentioned that she made microwave kesari and then the ordinary ulunthuvadai. You have misunderstood it.

Hello dev!
Puzungalarisi is called as par boiled rice as well as boiled rice. All are the same. We can use both rice varieties for preparing aappam. I have posted aappam recipes using raw rice and also par boiled rice.
-
Dear Mrs.Mano,
Thanks a lot for clarifying my doubt... I find it bit difficult to get raw rice here...So,will try the aappam that uses par-boiled rice & let you know how it turns out...
