Kugan's Kitchen Part 6

**Suja Rajkumar** · 4th March 2011, 07:25 AM

Aarthi,
My friend suggested to use Sujata atta. The ratio was 1 cup water to 2 cups of flour. She did not add any oil to the dough. Let it rest for about 40 min.The tough was not hard, but illakamai irunthucchu. Not kola kola. The rotis she made puffed up like pooris on the tava without any oil. Aarthi, I will try to post pics when I make it over the week-end. Hope this answers your question,

Suja

K, thanks a lot for the veg fish curry recipe... will try it tomorrow...

Arthi, glad u liked the kadai veg... for most northie dishes, adding a spn full of crushed kasuri methi towards the end gives a spl flavour that brings it close to the restaurant ones...

PS, how was ur shivrathri celeb?... thanks a lot for the wishes...

Kuganka,

Tell Rubenee ,that she doesnt wants to get scared at all.
Akka,
In japanese culuture,everybody in the family used to take bath at night.
What they will do is,they used to fill the tub with warm water and aromatic herbs and powders.
Everyone in the family,will takes a body wash outside the tub with soap and then they will get in that herbal bath and will stay in there for 5 to 10 mns.
Since the body has been washed already,they will not worry in reusing the same water again for other members.

Akka,ore family members kooda ukkantha parava illa,in most of all the towns and cities,there are places called as onsen.Even in ferries to they have these onsens in japan.
In those also,in centre a large tub would be there,which is filled with hot water(Not too hot).On the side of the tubs separate washrooms would be there,people first used to take complete body wash and then they will ,move to the centre tub.But everyone will be very carefull in not polluting the water.

These all are not a compulsory ones,if u wish u can do avalo thaan.Thanniku ellam ange kastam illa kuganka.So ask her to be happy.

Regaridng vegetarian foods,Which part of Japan she is going?How long she is going to stay there?
U can get veg foods in all the shops kuganka.They consider fish and egg as veg stuffs.So She has to ask for it specifically.Thats all.
If it is very short days,she can carry the stuffs.Becoz even though we can get veg items,but ennaku therinchu,avalo seekirama taste nammaku pidikathu.It takes time to adjust to the tastes.Noddles stuffs would be good.If she likes that ,then it is good.
Then so many indian restuarants are there kuganka.
So she dont have to worry at all.

AArthii, thanks for your valuable tips for Rubenee.
I will tell her about that.
I have posted the recipe for kadai vegetables in page 150.
So it will be easier for people to see the recipe and picture.
Thanks, Kugan98

Dev, thank you very much for your pm about the info for Rubenee.
Poor girl she was very frighten after hearing from her friends.
She will be away for 15 days.She will be in Tokyo. Foster parents house.

Try the fish kuzhambu. The fish will have a little taste like our vadai

Otherwise it is o.k. See if it is the same taste as you had.
Thanks and take care, Kugan98
