Hello everyone, For those who are fed up of the same picture staring at you since past few weeks, whenever you visit Sindhirasoi (This means I am expecting some of you to drop in few times just to check..lol), here is something different to look at to 🙂 Dear Friends, Visitors, Well wishers and lurkers , Thanks for being around and keeping in touch . I owe so much to all of those who kept writing to me and updated me with all the happenings around. I am flattered with the Emails and Chats , comments and Face book and Twitter messages and wish this never ends. Regarding updates, then Hey , our new Home is almost done, and its just matter of few days ,when we will be finally able to settle down (Keeping Fingers Crossed). And it goes without saying that I am super excited about the shifting, though it would mean more work for us, but I am geared up for that. On that note, I take your leave now, hoping to be charged up to start blogging again soon.Wish me luck ! And before I sign off for the day, let me share with you this Typical South Indian Food.Am sure majority of you simply love eating this..what say huh? Idli Medu Wada and Coconut chutney And a more closer look… Medu Wada My version of making Meduwada is here at Beyondcurries, A Blog I am Proud to be associated with 🙂

Alka Keswani — Wed, 31 Dec 2008 13:23:41 +0000

People are so worried about what they eat between Christmas and the New Year, whereas they should actually worry about what they eat between the New Year and Christmas.~Author Unknown Well i am not worrying about what i ate between New year and Christmas 2008,but i am Sharing some of my Favorites,amongst the numerous food recipes that i shared with you all during the year 2008 Being a Hard core Foodie, it is really tough to select just a few,but still walking down the memory lane,i am picking up some real all- time -favorites- of- mine.And yes,Don’t expect just healthy ones, coz i am …and will always remain, partial towards street food 😉 So lets begin…. The Two breakfast items that i will prefer any day are: Dal Pakwan or Sael(seyal) Pao An ideal lunch for me could be an option between : Kadhi chaawal Or Varriyun(wadi) Patata Or the simplest lunch,Dodo with buttermilk If at all i need to snack in during evening,i will, without pondering ,choose between ……what else but Paanipuri or Batar Papdi Dinner could be some rice and dal combinations like: Saayi Dal,rice and karela stir fried or a perfect meal or simply this one: I am not a dessert person but still can have few scoops of lovely falooda That’s my Ideal menu combination for any special day.What about yours?? Do share some FOOD THOUGHTS with me.Share with me how would you like to Ring in New year(in terms of food of course) And Wishing Every one, landing on this page…A Very Happy New Year.May you and your family enjoy all the Joys of World,through out the year(and many more years to come) This goes to Srivalli’s “Best Of year 2008” Event ,wherein she invited “all fellow bloggers to share their “Year’s Best” in an event that does not require you to cook, click foodie pictures, anything.

Moong(Green Grams)

Alka Keswani — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 09:13:38 +0000

I am a self proclaimed Dal lover and I love to make a different one daily! I enjoy the feeling of having FILLING FOOD, when I eat dal, rice, roti, subzi combo. Hence I am actually not very fond of Moong, coz this one doesn’t go with rice:-( Moong or green gram are a storehouse of proteins.Moreover, the nutritious value of the moong increases many folds when these beans are sprouted.So don’t forget to include these green pearls in your regular diet My hubby likes Moong plain and bland,while my son and myself prefer a more spicier version.So I end up making Moong twice in a week, one his way and one my way;-).And still it has to be accompanied with some dry Subzi or atleast a Jowar flour DODA (recipe coming soon). Fussy eater …who me????. No way….I am just an innocent person, whose taste buds have been pampered (read…spoiled) by her mother!! Now considering how bias I am about spicy things, I would naturally share with you all my version of moong…..As usual hubby dear can wait…isn’t it?? Print Moong(Green Grams) Rating 1.0 from 1 reviews Prep time: 10 mins Cook time: 25 mins Total time: 35 mins Serves: 2 Healthy Moong or green gram cooked in traditional sindhi style Ingredients Moong (Green gram) 1 cup Onion 1 small Garlic 5-6 cloves Ginger Tomatoes 2 Green chillies 2-3 Salt Turmeric powder ¼ tspn Garam masala powder ½ tspn Oil 2-3 tspns Curry leaves 5-6 Cumin seeds 1 tspn Method Soak moong in water for few hours (could be made instantly,without soaking) Rinse them properly 6 -8 times Now in a pressure cooker add some oil, add ginger garlic paste,and saute for few seconds Add chopped onions and fry for some more time Add chopped tomatoes before the onion turns brown in colour Add chopped green chillies, salt, turmeric powder, garam masala powder and mix well Now add moong, some water(2-3 cups) and mix Close the lid of cooker and wait for atleast 3 whistles if moong are previously soaked or else for 8-9 whistles if they aren't soaked If required, whisk the moong with a wooden whisker (mathni) Now heat 1tsp of oil and add curry leaves and cumin seeds and wait till cumin seeds change colour Immediately add this tempering to cooked moong and mix well Adjust the water consistency and simmer for few minutes Serve hot with rotis or phulkas or Doda 2.2.1
