Sangeetha, my p.c is a new one. At times every thing is o.k.
At times it will say, URL not found and things like that.
My son says that my anti virus, is very powerful, that's why it blocks your forum.
Maybe at times there are virus in the forum.
My head will go round when I see such things.
Hope to resolve all things soon.

then meera is exactly like me. i just get annoyed even after running several times if i forgot some ingredient. i remember like for paste 5, for season 4, like that. if i dont do that i will forget. definitely i will take print outs. i am feeling possessive, because i gave yesterday a set of recipes for print out to my hubby (home one not working) and no boss yesterday for him at work as it was heavy rain over here. so all day he was reading all ur recipes now he knows all ur recipes better than me. he took a print out for himself too. . i am feeling very possessive .

Sangeetha, semma joke
Ok, ok, next time I will send a separate copy to my brother

Dear Sangeetha here is the recipe for idli upma. Kugan.


IDLI UPMA

Ingredients:

10 , one day old idlis
2 tbs oil
1 tsp mustard seeds
2 dry red chillis, cut into small pieces
½ tsp urad dal
½ tsp channa dal

2 medium onions chopped
3 green chillies chopped
1 tsp ginger finely chopped
1 sprig curry leaves
Salt to taste

1 tsp lemon juice
½ tbs coriander leaves chopped

Method:
Take the idlis and with your fingertips, , crumble the idlis slowly
If your idlis are very dry just sprinkle little water. (I did not do it. )

Heat oil in a non stick wok, add in the mustard seeds and let it crackle.
Add in the dry red chillis, urad dal and the channa dal.
Roast them till they become golden brown.

Add in the onions, green chillies, ginger curry leaves and little salt.
Saute till the onions turn slightly brown.
Add in the crumbled idlis, lemon juice, and gently toss and mix well.
Cook over medium low flame to prevent the upma from sticking to the pan.

Remove and garnish with the cut coriander leaves.
Serve as it is or with any chutney.

NOTE: some like to add in grated coconut, but it is optional.

Kuganka, hats off to you. The soya chicken varuval was fantastic. Your method of boiling the soya to get rid of the smell is super. We had guests and they asked me how come your soya does not have that funny smell.

Every one enjoyed the dish very much Kuganka. Thanks a lot for the recipe.
Now I know how to boil the soya for different dishes.
Thanks again Kuganka.
