Kugan's Kitchen Part 7

[meerra]

Thanks Meera for the nice welcome and clarification. THis hub has become by one spot now. I know cooking every curry in one day is the most difficult task . ITs all my mind set I know its bad but hesitant to change. Even when I used to work will strugle a lot but still was always regular in cooking daily. Spoilt child definetly agree.

Priyasri I feel happy that , I am not alone wondering the variety shown in a day by Kugan.

Tried spicy potato rice taste was very good but my potato absorved lot of oil. don't know if boiled potatoes will do good too. Icecream feed back tomorrow.

PS Thamby defintely I am ur akka in eating spicy foods. Like the ones who have sweet toungue I have chillie toungue.

Though I have not tried baking vadams in oven I have always been thinking to do so. I have dried orange skin in oven and the result was really as good as sun dried ones.

YOu can try this simple vadam which I have tried in sun dry method.

CHinna vengaya vadam

nicely mash 24 hrs old, 2 cup cooked raw rice. add 2 cups chopped shallots to it , then add salt and chille powder according to taste. mix them throughly and roughly shape them like tiny shallots (chinna vengayam) . SUn dry the vadams or set oven to the minimum temp in a tray place butter sheets and spray oil on it and arrange these vadagams.once dried deep fry them and enjoy ! (It will take 8 hrs to 10 hrs for this oven method i guess. for me atleast electricity is free).

Dear Sangeetha, thanks for your wonderful post. Very nice to go through.
Also thanks for trying out many recipes, that will make Kugan very happy.

Sangeetha, Kugan is from a kutoo kudumbam.
There are 11 members in her family, plus her driver makes it a dozen.
Even though they have maids, it is a tradition in their family that, cooking is done by the lady of the house.
No one comes to their house during lunch time or dinner time , goes without eating.
That is a strict rule of their late father-in-law.
So Kugan cooks a variety daily, rasam, tayir, a kulambu and about 3 side dishes.

Kugan is from India, married into a Malaysian family.
She lived like a princess in her home without doing any work.
Kugan knows nothing to knots in cooking.
Her mother- in-law trained her to become a super cook.
Now she can cook even for 100 people with ease.

Kugan is a super woman, she takes care of the house, children, and also the accountant to her companies.
We are all very proud of our Kugan.

Sangeetha please go through all the threads, you will find lots of recipes to cook.
So you can cook daily variety in your house.
Please I am sure you too will have some special recipes.
Please post it for us to follow.
Thanks and take care, Meerra
