Add 8tbsp fresh curd, 2sp ginger paste, 2sp garlic paste, 1 1/2 tbsp pepper powder[coarsely ground], 2sp lime juice, 1sp cumin powder, 2sp fennel seed powder, 1sp turmeric powder, 1sp coriander powder and 1tbsp chilli powder to 1 1/2 kg chicken pieces, mix well and marinate them for 2 hours. In a big kadai, pour 6 tbsp oil. Add 6 finely chopped onions and fry well to a golden brown colour. Add 2tsp ginger paste and 2sp garlic paste and fry well. Add 4 big tomatoes [finely chopped] and fry until the oil floats on the top and the tomatoes are well mashed. Add the chicken and enough salt. Mix well. Cover with a lid and cook under medium fire.

Dear Mrs.Mano,
Yes I dipped the cutlets in beaten egg & then rolled them in breadcrumbs. But I think I kept fire high, so next time I will do with medium fire.Thanks for the recipe also, what can be the best side-dish for this adai?
About jeeragasamba rice- can we use it for regular eating with sambar, rasam etc.? Is it healthy or Ponni rice is healthy? How much water to be used for cooking Ponni rice? I have also seen another variety called Jasmine rice -- is it good & healthy?
Thanks for all your advice and help,
Kamakshi.

Sorry Mrs.Mano, I forgot to ask about Mushroom poriyal recipe. Can you post this recipe or any tasty mushroom dish recipe ? When I try the poriyal becomes very watery and so I drain out all the water at the end. But my husband says there is no flavour at all and it tastes like wet cardboard !!! Hope you can help,whenever you get time.Bye.

Hello kavitha!
I will post some chettinadu recipes for you soon. Regarding Curd vermicelli, is it a sweet or preparation like bagalabath[thayir saadham]?

Hello RVM!
You have asked about sweet SAMOSA and that is why I have explained about it. But I could understand now that you have really asked the recipe for SOMASA which is usually filled with pottukkadalai pooranam. I will write about it soon.
Write to me about this Kari avaraikkai. Is it only available in Salem? Every body will be benefited if you could post the recipe of kari avaraikkai with attukkaal here.

Hello Mrs.Mano,
I don't think it's sweet, but i just remember that there were some grapes and there were no green chillies. Still you can post the recipe what you have in mind. Have you tasted it when served at dinner at the marriage functions? And by the way which part of Tanjore are you from?
Thanks for the respones.

Hello Mrs.Mano,
I have a doubt about rava urundai.
Whenever I make them, my husband use to say that since it is not cooked properly(though it is dry fried, he is not satisfied(), hesitates to take more than one. I also feel the same nowadays because rava's nature is like that. If we take little more qty. of rava upma, will end up with stomach pain. So, what is ur opinion?
thanks and bye
