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.

Kuganka, your idlis look super soft and soo white. What is the recipe?
The upma too looks very nice. Thanks for posting the recipe.

Sangeetha, I really enjoy the conversation between you and our Kugan.
Very very enjoyable and nice to read. I am very very happy about it. Form your post I can understand that you are planning something.
A cook out or a very big party. Wish you all the success for the cook out. Our Kugan's recipes will not fail you.

I am very brave if I am trying out her recipes, all will turn out very well. Her recipe itself is so easy to follow.
She has every thing step up step , so easy to follow it. Post your picture of your cook out.

3 idli rice 1/2 cup raw rice and 1 cup urad dal. keep it for both idli and dosa. grind it in mixie. i have grinder but never used it on my own. so afraid.

Dear Sangeetha, the measurements for the idli and dosai, always will make our head go round.

My great grandmother, and all the down line use only this measurement.


2 cups of Ponni pulungal arisi
1 cup whole urad dal
1/2 cup cooked rice
1/4 tsp of funugreek seeds
salt to taste


Soak the rice for about 5 hours.
The urad dal and funugreek seeds for an hour.

grind the urad dal till fluffy, do not use lot of water.
use the water in which you soaked the urad dal.
once done remove and keep aside.

now grind the rice with the cooked rice.
grind smooth, but little grainy.
Mix the two batter with salt, beat well with your hand.
Let it ferment for at least 8 to 9 hours.
you get super soft idlis.


NOTE, I have not tried with idli rice.
Sorry if I confused you. You can continue your own method if you feel happy.
Thanks and take care, Kugan.
