Kadala Kozhambu / Chickpeas in Coconut Milk
2008-10-08 07:10:00 Today is a my mom-in-law's b'day and I wanted to do something for her that would be meaningful to both of us. Before I go any further I have to say how lovely she is to me, like my own mom :) TH thinks I look a bit like her :DShe is an amazing cook too and this is one of the first recipes I learnt from her since TH loves it. Its simple and looks mild but is amazingly flavourful, just like all her dishes are. She is super fast in the kitchen and is normally done cooking for the day by the time I am up (err.. which is around 7 in the morning :D). So here is to her and her special day. Happy B'day Amma :) Chickpeas / Kabuli Chana What I Used (Serves 2-3 people): Chickpeas/Kabuli Chana - 1/2 cup Thick coconut milk - 3/4 cup Tamarind - one marble sized ball (or 2tbsp if you are using paste) Sambar cum rasam powder - 1 tbsp - I ...
Parippu Usili / Usli
2008-09-25 03:56:00 This is the quintessential Tamil Brahmin dish that I was unaware of till I met TH. This is his favourite side-dish to go with rice and rasam or kara kozhambu. I have posted this dish once before that was not an 'authentic' recipe. This is straight from my mom-in-law's recipe archive and I make it around once a week.The main ingredients are french beans and toor dal but the recipe is flexible enough to accommodate slight changes. Sometimes I use cluster beans instead of french beans and it works just as well. I have even heard some make cabbage usili but haven't tried this out myself. There are also different and healthier options to cook the dal as opposed to the traditional method of drenching it in oil and telling yourself its healthy cuz it has lentils (aka proteins).What I Used (to serve 4)French beans - 1 cup, cut into 1" pieces and boiledToor dal (tuvaram parippu) - 3/4 cupChanna dal (kadala parippu) - 2 tbspDried red chillies - 3 to 4Hing/asafoetida (kayam) - 1/4 tspTurm...
Aloo Gobi / Potato-Cauliflower Dry Curry
2008-09-22 07:48:00 I am not a huge fan of Aloo Gobi but TH loves it! He loves anything with potatoes in it and cauliflower is his favourite vegetable. Last week he actually requested for this dish to have with chapatis, and it came as a surprise cuz normally he leaves the decision-making to me.This is a simple, easy recipe that was done in about 20 minutes, perfect for a weeknight quick-fix dinner. It is also unarguably one of the most popular dishes in North Indian restaurants everywhere, especially outside India. A meal out is not considered complete without a nice and mildly spiced Aloo Gobi to go with the rotis (flat Indian bread)What I Used (to serve 2):Cauliflower/Gobi - 2 cups, cut into floretsPotatoes/Aloo - 2 medium sized ones, cubedOnions - 1 big, chopped fineTomatoes - 1 cup, pureedGinger garlic paste - 1 tsp (or use 2 garlic pods and a 1/2" piece of ginger, both minced)Chilli powder - 1/2 tspTurmeric powder - 1 pinch (about 1/4 tsp)Coriander powder (malli podi)- 1 tbspCumin powder (jeeraka...
Matar Paneer - Peas with Indian Cottage Cheese
2008-09-01 10:14:00 This is a recipe totally "flicked" from Jugalbandi cuz this month they are featured on Zlamushka's Taste & Create.I had been meaning to make this dish for a while and had some left over paneer after making palak paneer. I always have frozen peas in the fridge, though my mom keeps telling me I should get fresh ones. Well, I will if I find them around, but till then, frozen ones will do. They are just so convenient!I have also been planning to make paneer at home one of these days. But my lazy self found that Mustafa Stores in Singapore stores paneer (among everything else under the sun!) so I am happily buying and stocking up on frozen Amul Paneer cubes.Anyway, I have the recipe below, the way I modified it but I have stuck to it pretty much entirely.What I Used: Serves 2-3Inspired by Recipe from Jugalbandi Cubed cottage cheese - 2 cups, fried a light brown.Green peas - 1 cup Chopped onions - 1 cup Chopped ginger - 1 tsp Chopped garlic - 2 tspTomatoes, pureed - 2 cupsCapsicu...
Kala Channa
2008-08-12 10:13:00 My dad loves chickpeas, both the kabuli (white) version and the kala (black) variety. Though I am more a fan of kabuli chana and the yummy curry my mom makes with it, I am told that the black variety (nadan kadala in malayalam) is more nutritious.More research on chickpeas gave me some nice-to-know nutrition facts about it. "One hundred grams of mature boiled chickpeas contains 164 calories, 2.6 grams of fat (of which only 0.27 grams is saturated), 7.6 grams of dietary fiber and 8.9 grams of protein. Chickpeas also provide dietary calcium (49-53 mg/100 g), with some sources citing the garbanzo's calcium content as about the same as yogurt and close to milk. " - WikipediaHere is the recipe for authentic (as far as I could made it :D) Kala Chana. I recently bought a small packet of Caraway seeds, since I thought it would be nice to cook up something nice with them. Kala Chana is the first recipe in that series.What I Used: Black chickpeas (kala chana) - 1/2 cup...
Palak Paneer/Cottage Cheese in Spinach Gravy

I knew there are so many great recipes for palak paneer in our blogosphere so wasn't too worried about finding one.Zeroed in on Sailu's blog, finally. I didn't make many changes to her recipe, except for quantities of some. Be warned that this is not one of those quick and easy recipes. It takes time to cook but is definitely worth the effort and time.What I Used:Serves 2Recipe source Paneer - 1 cupSpinach/Palak - 4 cups, shreddedOnions - 1 medium, choppedRipe tomatoes - 2 big, pureedGinger garlic paste - 2 tspGreen chillies - 2, slitCumin - 1 tspChilli powder - 1 tspCoriander powder - 2 tbspCurry masala - 1 tsp (optional)Cream/malai - 1 tbsp (optional)Ghee - 1 tbspHow I Made It:1.
