HAPPY COOKING!!!

Hi All, The story behind this Kizhi parotta is always a sweet memory for me. Last year before planning for vacation to Kochi , I listed out the dish names which I wanted to try there, and on the top of list was this kizhi parotta. Everyday we use to search this parotta in all online portals but none of the restaurents served this parotta. Finally I searched in fb and got their contact number and messaged and got it delivered to our house. And it was worth of so much effort, it was spicy, aromatic , wonderful and just out of words. I love kerala for this parotta itself. From then I wanted to try this parotta at home desperately. Though the recipe is not much complicated but getting banana leaf is more complicated here. We have to travel a couple of kms to buy banana leaf and in this covid situation it was very risky. Finally one fine day we bought banana leafs and made this kizhi parotta at home and as expected it was a hit and tasted wonderful. Happy to share the recipe with

Hi All, Idiyappam is one of the healthiest and very comfort dish which you can make it in jiffy. A little practice in dough consistency brings you perfect pluffy, soft idiyappam. I tried a few times earlier but never achieved perfect texture with normal rice flour, though I roasted the flour before using still I was not able to achieve perfect texture. Then I started using idiyappam flour which gave me perfect soft, white puffy idiyappams. Attukal paya / goat leg soup goes best with idiyappam nothing can be the combo of idiyappam and paya but some spicy curry like egg, chicken ,mutton also goes wonderfully with idiyappam. If you want to try sweet version, you can make sweet coconut milk or banana with jaggery which goes well as sweet idiyappam. But we prefer spicy combos, so I make variety of spicy curries with idiyappam. shared the egg paniyaram curry as separate post. Here sharing the idiyappam recipe post for beginners.   SERVINGS : 4 members (yields about 25 idiyapp
