Dear Mrs. Prathiba,
My wife and I are very impressed with you variety of idlis. However we would like to learn from you the recipe to make Idlis with yeast as made by Mangalorian Christians. It is generally eaten with Non- vegetarian curry. Thank you
Can you put up any cake recipes you have tried ?
Hi Hema,
I will surely put up some cake recipes shortly. But i require some time.
Aunty, I am eager to see the recipe of “Jilebi” which is the king of sweets..on your blog..
Hi Pallavi,
I will surely put up your request. I need a couple of week’s time.
Hello Prathiba ji
Please post some bottle gourd and ridge gourd recipes.
Hi,
Can you please post more rice recipes/one pot meals? I tried your methi pulav it was yummy.
Tejaswini, Amitha,
Thanks for your suggestions. Will attend to them in the coming days.
Btw, as must have noticed already I just put up Ghee Rice !
Hello,
thanks for all the rice recipes. wanted to know which brand of garam masala powder you used for vegetable kurma. there are a lot of brands available in the market and each one tastes different and due to it the taste of the dish changes considerably.
Hi Amitha,
I powder the garam masala items at home and i use that powder only. If needed i will put up the G.Masala powder recipe shortly.
Hi Prathiba aunty
I wanted a request a recipe for dharwad pedha. I know it is difficult get but if u get it i would be very thankful. I am 5 month pregnant that is only craving that cannot be satisfied since i stay in usa.
Hi Sripriya,
I will try and if possible will surely put it up.
Hello Aunty,
When mentioning the qty of ingredients could you please post the quantities in cups/pounds instead of in grams (for ex in gram rava laddoo). Here in US it is very difficult to convert grams into ounces since most of the measuring cups have only ounces. The best ways is to mention in standard measuring cups. Thanks in advance
Hi Rita,
I think i am following the mehod of mentioning the ingredients in cups since june2008. For which recipe do you want me to mention the measurement right now? I will help u out.
Hello,
Most of the recipes from last year like Besan-Atta-Rava laddu, Rava Idli, Peanut chikki etc.
Hi Rita,
I will put up the ingredients of these recipes in cups in a couple of days & mail you. I hope i am clear.
Hello Aunty,
I just loved most of the Konkani recipes.Can you pls post the recipe of Churmundo?
Hi Rashmi,
Thanks, I am happy you liked them.
Btw, is this not what you were looking for ?
http://cuisineindia.wordpress.com/2007/11/13/churmi-laddoo/
Hi Prathibalrao,
Your site was very helpful specially with the dates for sankashti and moonrise time, I hope u continue to put them up.I have one more request the tomato chutney south indian style which they serve with idlis is it possible for you to send me the recipe.I would appreciate it.
Hi Asha,
I am busy with the diwali preparation and also postings. I think i can post the recipe after diwali.
Hi Rita,
As requested by u , i have updated the ingredients of the items in terms of cup measurements approximately.
Hello Aunty,
Not Exactly .. am looking for the Churmundo, authentically made in konkani households. Though i think the ingredients might be the same.
Hi Prathibalrao,
Thank you very much will look forward for the recipe
hello
can u pls show us how to make small boondi ladoo and samosa
jyothi
Hi Jyothi,
I will surely put up samosa recipe in a while. But for boondi laddu it may take time.
Hi Prathib Mai,
In your Recipe Type, could you add a category for ‘Konkani’ recipes. I usually search for Konkani recipes. It would be easy to look up some authentic konakni recipe, through a category just for it.
Thanks,
Vidya
Singapore
Hi Vidya,
I would surely add up as you suggested.
Hi Prathibal,
Recently discovered your blog, the moment I saw I can’t stop reading your blog. Nice recipes from Karnataka, keep up the good work in sharing with all of us.
My request would be your coconut chutney I see in lot of pictures your bright green coconut chutney, can you please share it with us with tips in buying coconut too.
I have linked you in my blog.
cheers
rajani
Hi Rajani,
I normally don’t Tamarind in any of the chutneys. I only add Bilimbi to it instead. The reason being that it is a tangy vegetabble used here in down south in most of the houses. But in the rainy season i do use Tamarind itself. The coconut is from my garden. To buy you make sure it should be neither too ripe nor too tender. Add fresh green chily and also cilantro. Also Curry leaves is from my garden , hence the freshness and the colour.
Hello Mrs Rao….
Would be great if you could post recipes of Atras(Anarasa, in Marathi) and Patti laddoo(thin chapatis of maida crumbled and bound into laddoos with sugar syrup)…Still remember relishing these delicacies made by my grandma when I was a child..Unfortunately the next generation has not been very successful in keeping up with her culinary skills
…thanks…
Hi Pratibhaji,
Can you post the exact procedure of making the soft rice modaks. I tried a couple of times from the recipe of other sites. But somehow, the modaks become hard.
Hi Mohan,
I will post ur request in a couple of weeks time.
namaste madam
i am suba from singapore. is the katsambar rice in kannada is same as rosematta rice of kerala. can u pl enlighten me . i am using rosematta rice every day for lunch.
can u pl post the recipes for sambar powder
than you
regards
suba
Hi Suba,
The rice is actually not similar to that of the one which u use for ur everyday lunch. This particular rice is ofwhite in colour and not the rosematta rice. It is par-boilde rice as it is called in Bangalore. It is not the red boiled rice. I hope i am clear. I will post sambar recipe soon.
namaste madam
thanks for ur reply. i have once more doubt, in singapore we usually get the thai brend fresh crop long grain rice. i prepared dosa using the rice but he dosa is very sticky, can u pl enlighten me how to use the fresh crop rice for cooking .
regards
suba
Hi Suba,
Always new rice from fresh crop turns rice to sticky. The solution for the same buy old(last year’s) rice or if not available please cook it with 1 cup rice with 1 cup water only or even less. It is only trial and error method. For old rice we add 1 for 2 or 3 cups of water for 1 cup rice. For the dosa to turn out sticky may be dal is also not of a good quality or the batter would have turned watery.
namaste
i want to prepare instant lime pickle, which is usually done in south indian marriage. can u pl tell me the method .

suba

Do you know to recipe of homemeade tomato jam? My mother used to make it. But now she has forgotten the tomato-sugar proportion. Would be great if you can help me out on this. We can’t get ready made tomato jam, have to make at home. Meanwhile, I’ll try your tomato burfi, probably its taste is somewhat like the jam I’m craving.
Hi Vidya,

suba
Hi Suba,
Thanx for ur comments. But sorry for the delay.
Hi,could you please post the recepies for daal fry and any north indian dishes..
Hi Suparna ,
Please refer to my post dated 27/09/2008, under the category North indian dishes. You can find it there. Prepare it and lemme know.
hi aunty,
Thank you.i willtry it and surely let u kne.i tried ur recipe for almond burfi and i had just one small problem tat was the burfi mix became a bit powder like so i cldnt exactly cut it into pieces like a burfi should be cut.could u plz tell me y it bcame like that? otherwise it was just great.Thanks for this easy recipe.also i wanted 2 knw if kaju burfi is prepared in the same manner?
Hi Suparna,
The reason for the burfi to powder would be either the Almonds are old or it is over done. If the Almonds are old use 2 Teaspoons of more ghee when it is about to be done.
Just a comment – the Recipe index does not seem to show the complete list for me (the ones you posted in April 2009 dont seem to show up)… Does anyone else the problem?
Thanks Dinkar for your alert. You should see them all now. I will try to keep that page up to date in the future
Thank you, Pratibha.. Now I can see it, and get to all the yummy recipes easily
Hi Dinkar,
Thax for ur expert comments.
I recently had a dry chutney powder from Konkan… red chilly powder, mixed with coconut and garlic and some other ingredients. Can you tell me what this is called and how it can be made?
Hi Shubha,
I have also put up dry Garlic chutney powder on this blog. Just go thru it .This powder can be used to spread it as masala for masala dosa , in place of the wet garlic chutney!!!! Please check.

i am sorry , by ‘oobat’ i meant ‘holige’ . bangaloreans refer to holige as oobat. and we konkanis say ‘oonbatti’
vidya

vidya
Hi Vidya,
Holige recipe is also long over due. It is also a request recipe. I will surely put it up. But i need some time.
Mam,
All your receipes are awesome. The ingredients used are readily available and easy to prepare. Mam can you tell us where we get the tawa which you are using to cook dosas.
Hi Banu,
The tawa which i use for Dosas is made of Cast iron and is available in North Karnataka. Places like Sagar, Shimaga, Sirsi, and even Bijapur etc., It is really helpful!!!!

Hi,
Could you please post the reciepe of Godi uri ittu. This is a sweet powder type of dish made of Wheat atta and jaggery. very famous in north karnataka and hubli side. I have heard this is very good for health and very good for kids. They also make unde(balls) out of this.

Hi pratibha aunty,

Hi Anjali,
