Masala Pori

This snack is probably the fastest one that can be made. My husband loves this snack. When I'm out of time or ideas I make this one in a jiffy, ofcourse with all the ingredients at hand. :)

Semiya Dosa

I would like to share with you the recipe for semiya dosa which I had learnt from my aunt several years ago. It tastes yummy even without a side dish.

Tip to store curry leaves

Here's a simple tip to store your curry leaves fresh for weeks....



As soon as you get the leaves from the market, separate the leave from the stem. Wash them and dry them under the fan until there is no moisture content. Store the leaves in a GLASS JAR. Your leaves stay fresh for weeks :)




Try it to believe it. :)

Tomato Oats Soup

In my quest to weight loss, I googled for various low cal recipes. One of them was the Super Duper Tomato Oats soup which I had hit upon a blog in www.indusladies.com.

I prepare this soup first thing in the morning and stock it. When ever I'm hit by the hunger pangs, I have a bowl of this soup and I feel full for the next 2-3 hours. And what I liked about this soup is that no thickening agent like corn flour is required :) Oats bring in the thickness to the soup.

I tweaked the recipe to my taste. I added in onions and cloves which gave an excellent taste to the soup.
