Thank you very Kugan. The kangkong dish looks very yummy .
How did you cook it in your house ?
Kugan I have one more favorite . That is restaurant style Chinese greens with oyster sauce.
I always order this dish, when ever I go to a restaurant .
I hope you can post it for me. Take your time Kugan.

I will also try out the calzone recipe.
Thanks. Rose

Rose thanks for your nice post.
Well I did not add any shrimp paste or shrimps in my dish.
I feel very empty to post a recipe without a picture.
Thats why I did a cheating job

Your restaurant style green dish is coming

Thanks Rose, Take care Kugan

Kugan, thanks a lot for the bok choy recipe. I bought the bok choy on my way home after office.
I cooked it for dinner. My family really enjoyed the dish. It is cheap to cook it in the house as well as clean.
It will be a regular dish in our house. My family thanks you for the recipe.
They have asked me to request more Chinese recipes from you.
Thanks again Kugan.

Yes, Rose cooking in the house is cheap, clean and healthy.
Thanks for the nice feed back. I am not an expert in Chinese cooking.
I will try to give you the recipe if I know.
Thanks for keeping me company. I feel very lonely
Thanks and take care. Kugan

Dear friends,
I have come up a new recipe which is a quite breakfast. This is made at my home from childhood whenever there is old rice remaining. Amma is a expert in Masala saadham and we just love it

Simple Masala rice

Ingredients
Palaya saadham ( Old cooked rice) - 1/2 cup
Tamarind pulp - gooseberry size
Turmeric powder -1/2 tsp
Oil - 2 tbsp
Curry leaves - few springs
Urad dhal - 1tsp
mustard seeds - 1tsp
Ginger garlic paste - 1tsp
onion -1/2 small
green chilies - 2
chilly powder -1/2tsp
Salt to taste


Method
1. Take old rice in a bowl and add 1/2 tsp of turmeric powder and tamarind pulp and mix well with ur hand adding some salt. Allow it to soak overnight
2. In the morning take a kadai and heat oil. Add curry leaves, urad dhal and mustard seeds.
3. When mustard splutters, add the onions and saute them well.
4. When the onions are slight pink add the ginger garlic paste, green chillies slitted and saute until the raw smell goes away.
5. Add chilly powder and this point and cook for few minutes.
6. Now add the old rice mixture which is been soaking until the morning and give a nice stir
7. Cook for few minutes until all masalas blend into the rice
8. This serves as a nice breakfast or tea time snack and is a break from the normal tiffin varities like idli and dosa. Also people who are on diet can have this in the morning. As it is quite filling, lunch can be altered with a salad and u can still be active without hunger. Great way to start a day.

Thanks Nithishri for your nice post.
Thanks for your compliments.

Nithishri I have posted the recipe for crossiants in page 42 of this thread.

Also the filling of the calzone is up to ones wish.
I have Indianised a bit by adding brinjal pieces and curry powder.
The only important ingredient one should not miss, is the sauce and cheese.
They give a very good taste to the calzone.
Normally the calzones will be big in size, they will slice them after baking.


Thanks and take care, Kugan

Oh cool I shall look into the crossiants recipe for sure.
Also akka I have been craving for the Green curry with vegetables and chicken which a thai speciality. I tend to order this everytime when I visit Thai restaurant.
Do post the recipe if you find time or if already posted please direct to the right page.
Green curry and red curry is my favourite
