Aarthii, so u now have another reason to try sandwich recipes...:) Hope kutti enjoys his play skol...it'll be a totally diff world for him...:)
Aarthii, if u don't mind letting me know where u live, I can ask my homeopath for contacts there... she might know someone there thru their doctors network...
Selviem, I am very happy that sooji toast was of help to you.
I have to thank my generous friend.

Suvai nga, I am also surprised that even though she only knows me for few days, she has agreed to share all her recipes with me.
She too told me that normally she does not easily part with her recipes. There is some charisma in you, anyway you are doing a very good service.

Suvai & Aarthii, I used to trade/invest in stocks... but not anymore... very difficult after the kid... in stock mkt, if we dont have enough time for research & analysis, its better to keep out of it coz mistakes can prove to be very costly... ippo hubby has left his IT job become a full timr investor...:)
Aarthii, gud to know pranav is so very interested to go to skol... it would sure be boring for him if he doesnt have anyone nearby to play with...

[tscii]Something different from our usual dosai.
TOMATO DOSAI
Ingredients:
1 cup raw rice
1 cup boiled rice (pulungal arisi)
¼ cup urad dal
3 ripe red tomatoes
5 dry red chillies
½ tsp asafetida powder
¼ tsp oil
Salt to taste.
Method:
Wash and soak both the rice and urad dal for about 3 hours.
Clean and cut the tomatoes.
Cut the red chillies into small pieces.
Heat the oil in a pan, add the tomatoes and the red chillies.
Sauté well till the raw smell of the tomatoes goes.
Remove and cool.
Now drain the rice and the urad dal.
In a blender add the soaked rice, urad dal,
cooked tomatoes and the red chillies.
Grind to a smooth paste. The consistency should be like dosa batter
Add salt and the asafetida powder.
Let it ferment for about 6 hours.
Now make dosai the usual way.
Serve with tomato, onion or coconut chutney.
Note: My friend’s recipe was to add the chillies and tomatoes raw and grind with the rice.
I found that the raw smell of the tomatoes and chillies were over powering, when I made the dosai
This way you have a very good tomato dosai.

[tscii]Suvai nga, I am posting what NOV anneh had for breakfast.
It is done in two methods.
The Chinese will use only the glutinous rice flour and their
filling will be always sweet black bean paste.
this kuih will be a bit chewy.
The Malays will always make with steamed mashed sweet potato,
plain flour, and some use little glutinous flour.
Their filling will always be sweet coconut filling.
This kuih is called kuih bom.
You are right bomb, as this kuih has the tendency to explode while cooking. The temperature should not be too high and do not fry them too long. The end result will be sweet :lol:
Here is the recipe:
STUFFED SESAME BALLS OR KUIH BOM
Ingredients:
For the sweet coconut filling:
150 grms sugar
150 grms palm or brown sugar
125 ml water
½ coconut only the white flesh scrapped
2 screwpine leaves
1 tsp corn flour + 1 tbs water
Method:
Combine both the sugars, knotted screwpine leaves and water,
in a pan. On low heat leave it to simmer until the sugars dissolve.
Add the grated coconut and stir well. Stir at all times and do not
leave the mixture to dry out.
While the mixture is still wet, add the cornflour, water mixture.
The filling will slightly be thick, turn off the heat and let the
filling to cool down completely. Shape into small balls and keep
For The Dough:
80 grms sweet potato steamed and mashed well
120 grms glutinous rice flour
20 grms all purpose flour
35 grms castor sugar
100 ml water
A pinch of salt
Sesame seeds for coating
Oil for frying
Method:
Mix all the ingredients to form a soft dough.
Divide into 12 balls.
Flatten each ball, place a ball of the sweet mixture filling.
Wrap it into a ball, now roll the ball onto the sesame seeds.
See that the ball is well coated with the seeds.
Deep fry over medium heat until golden brown .
Its best to deep fry the kuih immediately.
Remove and enjoy.
