Thanks Sangeetha for your nice post.
Try out the recipe, it tasted yummy.
Sangeetha, as Rajraj uncle has said, it is the same thing.
They go by different names, you can get them in the Korean Supermarkets.
Well with tapioca, you can cook so many types of dishes.
I simply love the tapioca perattal, you can eat it as it is.
As Rajraj uncle said, you can just boil and eat it.
Thanks and take care, Kugan.
Dear Sangeetha, thanks for the compliments for the potato sambal.
It goes well with curd rice. Glad you liked the sothi.
You are right, use what ever things you have, need not follow the recipe strictly.
Thanks for the nice picture. Kugan

Ennathu Muttai Sothi ah ? :shock: :yessir:
Dear P.S Tamby, muttai sothi illai, she has made muttai sambal and sothi.
I must have posted the muttai sambal long ago.
Thanks, Kugan
Dear Sangeetha try this tapioca puttu.
Kugan.
TAPIOCA PUTTU
Ingredients:
300 grms tapioca
¼ cup grated coconut
Sugar to taste
Pinch of salt
¼ cup grated coconut
Method:
Peel and grate the tapioca finely.
Using a muslin cloth, squeeze out all the juice.
Discard the juice.
Put the squeezed tapioca in a bowl.
Add the coconut, and the pinch of salt.
Using your fingers, mix them like breadcrumbs.
Now using a iddli thattu, spread little coconut on it.
Now put some of the tapioca mixture on it.
Close and steam for about 10 minutes.
Remove and mix the sugar, your puttu is ready.
Another way which I like is, boil the tapioca.
Mash it with a masher, add in coconut and sugar.
You have an instant snack to eat.

I wanted to make the banana cookie recipe by Nov but did not have internet to check the ratio so i forgot the almond milk and also did not know the oats ratio. but still it was tasty and yummy. going to make in once again. and i baked it for just few mins as i was craving.
aiyo gulabjamun feedback patha its so tempting to make the potato sambal with sambar sadam combination. and i do not have potatoes . i made the curry leaves kulambu once again. yummy.

Dear Sangeetha, thank you very very much for the nice feed back you give.
You are really motivate me to do more cooking.
Sangeetha, here in Malaysia we get fresh tapioca, we have to peel the skin, put it in a bowl of water to cover it.
you can keep it in the fridge for about 2 days, otherwise the tapioca will slowly turn black and will spoil.
I have seen in US, they give a light wax like coating for the tapioca they sell in the supermarkets.
I have tried keeping in the fridge for about 5 days.
Good you made the recipe given by NOV anneh.
Sangeetha, I love the hot,hot tapioca parattal that I make.
You can just eat it as it is for lunch, or tea. I will post the recipe for you.
Buy little tapioca and try it out. Thanks and take care, Kugan

My dear friends, you all remember my guest from UK? well she visited her sis-in-law in Singapore.
There they served her sizzling noddles, which her sis in law found in the net.
She got the recipe from her, and I copied it from her. It seems they served it on a sizzling plate.
I did not have one, so I served it in a bowl. Here is the recipe. Kugan

½ tsp sugar

Kugan akka & co
When you fry tofu, do you have to have gram flour coating? because I try to fry fresh tofu, no matter how long I fried it for , it never fried !
Happy Krishna Jayanthi to all.....!
I am enjoying my murukku now :slurp:
https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.n...84492038_n.jpg
Params,
tofu fry seiya - corn flour - without water.. adhil tofu ai pottu, light aga piratti, udane , oil il porikavum. super aga fry agum.........
Hai every one happy Krishan Jayanthi to all.
Was always around by people past 4 or 5 days. So all was avasara samayal and had lot of flops. From today yey :-D its going to be Kugans Kitchen at home so all will turn out good.
Kugan thanks for the explanation on tapioca. i always buy at this stage with the black lines. will be carefull.
thanks for the noodle recipe looks different.
Dear P.S Tamby, thanks for your inquire.
Tamby, I normally use besan flour as coating for only if I am doing Manchurians, sweet sour tofu and so on.
For shallow frying I do not use any flour.
If you cut the tofu into small strips and fry you can get them crisp.
Otherwise all tofu fried will have a little crisp out side with a soft inside.
Tamby I have taken pictures of different types of frying.
I have changed my pc set, all is new to me.
I will post as soon as I can.
Thanks and take care, Kugan
