Pudina kothimbir soup recipe - Mint coriander leaves soup recipe

soup in a serving bowl
Mint cilantro soup recipe - Mint Coriander leaves soup is one of my favorite soups. Soup is one such dish, that one can have it at any time of any season. I recently visited a marriage reception, and tasted this soup. I found it soothing, refreshing and filling. I obtained the recipe from the chef, later tried it a few times with some modification in the quantity of ingredients. The one small change I have made in this recipe is that I've added few chopped cabbages, which gives some crunchy bites and exercise to teeth.

Oats rava uttapa or uttapam in a serving plate
Oats rava uttapa or uttapam recipe - Oats, semolina and urad dal uttappa is a simple and perfect breakfast dish, alternative to onion uttappa. I had some oats in stock. I don't like to waste any item. So, I thought about this dish, instead of making oats idli or upma and added oats to rava uttappa batter to give variety to the dish. It was truly delicious. Uttappas goes well with sambar and coconut chutney. It can be prepared very often with less effort in different ways by mixing various vegetables such as carrots, beans, green peas, cabbage etc.

Aloo pakoda recipe - How to make potato pakoda

Aloo pakoda recipe - Potato pakoda with dosa batter and gram flour is another delicious dish that I make often whenever I have dosa or idli batter in stock in my fridge. The potato pakoda is usually prepared with besan or gram flour. But, this pakoda has a twist with dosa batter and it is more on the softer side rather than crispy as I had used fermented batter. Adding besan is totally optional, but it provides good binding and frying becomes very easy and pakoda doesn't stick in the bottom.

Sabudana batata thalipeeth recipe - Sago potato thalipeeth

thalipeeth in a serving plate
Sabudana batata thalipeeth recipe - Sabudana Thalipeeth is a substitute to the deep fried Sabudana Vada. Sometimes, I avoid deep frying and stick to the healthy version of shallow frying.  Though it is shallow fried taste wise there is not much difference between shallow fried thalipeeth and deep fried vadas. Thalipeeth tastes great when eaten hot with chutney. Those who are not on fasting can also eat this thalipeeth for their breakfast. This tasty and filling thalipeeth is usually served hot with curd and peanut chutney. It can also prepared using green chilly instead of  red chilly powder.
