When I shared my recipe for vada/garelu, I mentioned that I would be sharing the recipe for ginger chutney soon, so here it is 🙂 Ginger chutney goes excellent with medu vada/garelu and also with any south Indian breakfast like dosa and idly. The sweet and tanginess matches very well with the intense flavor of […]
‘Garelu’ is a deep-fried urad dal (minappapu) doughnut that is crunchy on the outside and soft from the inside. This is a savory recipe that is served with any chutney or sambar on the side. We usually make them during festivals and when there are guests at home as it is considered something exotic 🙂 […]
Chutneys are a regular in a typical South Indian home. Be it, idly, dosa or uttappam, chutney or sambar is a must with it. So, I have grown up eating and seeing my mother prepare a lot of chutney recipes. This list of mine has further grown now after the addition of my MIL’s recipes […]

Today, I am […]
Chutney is a perfect combination with idly or dosa. Being a South Indian, I come from a household where idly and dosa is almost made atleast once a week. So, there are several chutneys that are made at home, namely, tomato chutney, mint chutney, peanut chutney, coriander chutney, sesame seed chutney and several other fusion […]
I have already posted my recipe for Paneer Dum Biryani (check recipe here) earlier. I wanted to update it slightly. My mother-in-law suggested me to add some almond paste to the biryani gravy, she tried it and came out well. So, I made it today for my hubby’s lunch-box and I added a paste of […]
