Mango Pulusu

1. Contributor: Pranvi R .....
Mango pulusu - This is very similar to the kootu.... peel skin and cut into cubes... boil with salt and turmeric... now in a pan, take oil and do the seasoning... now add the cooked mango pieces...squeeze in tamarind juice, water, adjust salt, add grated jaggery, chilli powder, little sambar powder, and little water and cook for 2-3mins.. when its boiling reduce the flame .... mix a spoonful of rice flour with little water to make a paste and mix this paste to the mixture.... the flame shd be low otherwise rice flour will form like balls.... mix well and make sure no lumps are formed..... check the salt and other spices.... add coriander leaves...

NOTE : Instead of sambar powder ... we genereally add a spice powdeer made of dry roasted cumin+red chilli+pepper corns+dhaniya+few methi seeds
when i don't have time i simply use sambar powder

Hope u will like it

Mango kootu

1. Contributor: Pranvi R .....

I first tasted this at my friends place... they are Iyyer's and how many times I tried the exact recipe.. I cudn't match their taste.... but here's how it is done
Mango - wash the mango... without peeling the skin cut the mango... for this recipe the mango pieces are prefered in uneven sizes... and the seed ( tenka with skin) is also used... so don't discard it.. cut the mango into uneven pieces... take in a bowl... add little turmeric and salt.. and pressure cook for 2 whistles .....
meanwhile... in a blender take fresh shredded coconut+jeera+green chillies+pepper corns and make it a fine paste... keep this aside
once the mango is cooked... in a deep sauce pan, add oil and do the seasoning with urad,jeera, mustard, curry leaves and hing

... now add the mango pieces along with water... and keep boiling in medium flame... to this add the ground paste... add little more water...adjust salt and mix well.... keep it in low flame...
now beat 1/2 cup of yogurt and keeping the flame very low... add this to the mixture and mix well..... cook for 2more mins on low flame and turn off the stove.... taste good with rice

NOTE : this recipe tastes good only when the mango is sour... manchi pulupu vunte kaani bavundadu

Mango Dal

1. Contributor: Pranvi R .....
Mango dal - first boil toor dal in a pressure cooker.. peel the skin of mango.. cut into small ( not very small) cubes , wash, sprinkle lil water and cook in mmicrowave.. nenu toor dal pressure cooker lo pettetappude aa paina oka chinna bowl lo ee mamidikaya mukkalu kooda pettesta... koncham methaga avutayi mukkalu... thts ok for us.. some ppl don't like the mango pieces to be mushy.. they like them as it is... if u also want the mango pieces to hold their shape and still be cooked... cook it in microwave..

now in a pan, take oil and when it is hot.. do the tempering with urad, jeera, mustard, curry leaves, hing, dry red chillies and few slit green chilles.... (u can also add garlic pods if u want) once they are done... add lil turmeric and mix and to it add the boiled mango pieces... mix well and now add chilli powder .... let it boil for 2mins and add the cooked toor dal .... mix all well and add salt.... let it boil for another 2-3mins... adjust the consistency by adding water... I usually retain the water from the mango's and use it in the end... finally add chopped coriander leaves

NOTE : if the mago is not sour enuf... u can add lil tamarind juice

Soft Chegodilu

1. Contributor: Sruthi
Methatti Chegodiluu : (Soft ga untayi)

Ivi.. maa native place (Srikakulam) lo koncham famous.. I got hooked onto them when I first tasted them as a teenager (ante nenu koncham junk ekuva tinta :P ) .. So, monna amma valu vachinapudu Amma made at home. It was sooo yummy, Keshav ki kuda chala nachindhi. So.. evarikaina snack kavali ante.. idhi oka variety ani chepthuna.

Ingredients :
0.5 cups of rice flour
0.75 cups of sooji
Salt , red chilli powder, hing, water

-- Boil 2.5 cups of water.
-- In the water, add salt, red chilli powder, hing. Koncham salt and spice should be slightly on the higher end while adding in the water (like for Upma).
-- Once the water boils, add 0.5 cup of rice flour, 0.75 cup of sooji and stir continously.
-- Simmer the flame and place a lid.
-- If the mixture gets too tough, sprinkle some hot water.
-- Turn off the stove and let the mixture cool for some time.
-- Now, roll them like you do for Chegodilu.. Though, this has to be a bit thicker than the ones done with plain rice flour.
-- Fry them with a medium flame until golden brown.

They will be softer because of sooji and a bit crunchy because of the rice flour. These are best when eaten fresh. Next day ki they become soggy. Hope I was clear. Evarikaina emaina doubt vasthe adagandi. Picture attach chesthuna.. so that you get a lil idea of they look like.

Simple Cauliflower Fry

green chillies, ginger, cilantro, shredded coconut, salt anni grind chesaa;

inka, regular popu petti (urad dal, jeera, mustards, curry leaves, chana dal, turmeric),
chopped cauliflower vesi, soaked moong dal vesi, chilli paste vesi, mottam okasari stir chesi, medium flame, closed lid, 5-7 mins cook chesaa;

tarvata open lid tho oka 10 mins occassionally stirring, cook chesaa...
lightga corriander powder vesaa;

anthe, super nachindi, andariki...

small tweak for the salt..
in the recipe that i gave you..
chilli pastelo konchem salt add chesukondi;
the remaining salt, add it after u add gobi florets to the pan;
that way salt acts as moisture, and since u will close the lid and cook initially, u do not need water;
naku enduko water add cheste, mushyga anipistundi; so, max avoid chestha water lekunda;

gud luck... :)

Soya Granules Curry

1. Contributor: p@dmini
this is the product u will get in walmart in freezer section
first in hot oil add mustards,jeera,green chillies and onions after 5 mins add the veggie crumbles add salt and chilli powder and fry for 5 mins thats it it is good with chapathis
instant curry type annnamata

2. Contributor: Keerti
I do similar to what padmini said, but i also add tomato.. Just do it how u cook mutton kheema......Ok here you go...

First heat oil, add cumin seeds, Onions , green chilllies after sometime add Ginger garlic paste, Once onion becomes transparent and light brown in color add some Tomtato and let it cook , till tomatos become mushyy.. add chilli powder, salt and all masalas which ever u like.

in the mean while take this veggie Granules and wash them if you want and microwave it for sometime.

Once oil starts oozing from the curry add these Granules and cook till water evopartes and curry becomes close ( Sorry emmi rayalo teliyaledu... Kura deggariki aypoyaka ... ) . switch of the stove.

It goes well with Chapathi and even Ok with Rice.

Normal chuncks tho kuda cheypchu... Just soak normal chunks and then microwave them... And konchem cold water flow avvaninvandi... Till the smell goes... And squeeze the chunks and wash them again... Cut into small pieces and cook like above.

Thai Red Curry

1. Contributor: COOOOOOOOOOL....
didnt try but saw dis few days back,,,


2. Contributor: $u(h!tRa
Thai red curry ki main paste ee kada anni ready unte simple.
-Take a pan add oil,then add in the paste fry for a while until it releases nice aroma
-then add coconut cream[top layer of coconut milk u will c if u carefully open the tin ] this method adds little more flavour to the curry.
-let it fry for few more mins when u c the cream splits nd combines withthe paste now itz time to add ur vegetables.
Note:
[ I like my veggies to be cooked in the same pan so that it enhances the taste kani heavy anipisthadi thineppudu or for time saving u may preboil ur veggies nd can be added in tihs with the stock]

-if itz raw veggies u may need to fry a little while for2-3 mins if boiled veggie r added couple of mins is fine then stir in rest of coconut milk would love to add tiny bit of sugar in this stage,. let it boil nd simmer for the consistency u need.thats it heavenly thai curry is ready.garnish with coriander
note:for adjusting spice u may add chilles when the curry is boiling or if u think the paste is mild add to the oil in the first stage.

Sabudana Khichidi (Maharashtrian style)

1. Contributor: Padma Reddy

Nenu evening Khichidi cheyali ante 10:00 am ki ala nanabedtanu.. like 6-7 hrs before hand.

2 cups Sabudana
3 green chillies
1 cup roasted peanuts (remove the skins and grind into powder)
2 tsp crushed jeera
6-7 curry leaves
1 medium potato
1/4 cup oil

Method

1>Soak sabudana 6-7 hours before hand. first wash and rinse the sabudana and then soak them in enough water that all the sabudana are submerged in water.
2> Next, roast peanuts in microwave. Place them on m/w safe plate like corelle plate and heat it for 3 or 4 mins on high, depends on the m/w
3> chop the potatoes medium size and m/w it for 5 mins in water.
4> Heat oil in kadai or non-stick pan on medium high, add kadipatta, crushed jeera and green chillies, let them fry for 1 min and then add the boiled aloo. reduce the flame to medium low and let the potatoes cook. then add the peanut powder and mix well.
5> Lastly add the sabudana, mix well so that the masala is mixed well and sprinkle salt, close with a lid and let it cook for 10 mins... keep in mind reduce the flame to simmer (low), after 8-10 mins check the khichdi and see if there are any hard white sabudana left, coz by now you sabudana will turn into transparent soft balls.... if not then cook further for another 5 mins and check for salt....
