HOME MADE GHEE

தமிழ் காண : கிளிக்  Hi All, Having ghee in your regular diet is actually very good for health.But you should have it in limit, overeating any food is bad for health same way ghee also .If you take in limit it gives you so many health benefits like glowing skin , good brain development in kids and so on... I never like store brought ghee as they are never pure , I will make a big batch of ghee every month in home and store it. Making ghee in home is actually very easy , only thing you need to concentrate is right consistency .When your ghee reaches golden colour and aroma fills the room then remove from heat immediately.If you learnt this then you can easily make ghee in home itself , once you try in home then definitely you will not go for store brought ghee. YIELDS : ABOUT 350 ml PURE GHEE. INGREDIENTS : Butter – 1/2 kg ( I used cow butter). METHOD : Heat a wide pan and add butter to it . Keep the temperature in low and start stirrin...

KADAMBA / KANAVA MASALA /SQUID FISH CURRY

Hi, Sea has lot of creatures in it that we can cook and we were much more unaware of many . Squid fish is one among the yummy species which I was totally unaware even after coming to Chennai.One day in market I saw them and surprised that they are selling octopus ( it looked like that to me :)). Then I surfed in net and found actually they are squid ( kadamba / kanava) and not octopus , My friend Saranya cooked this gravy for us during her visit to our home .I copied the recipe from her and tried next week itself.Though the squid fish looks very weird the taste was so yummy and there is no fish odor in that.It just tasted like mutton. The cleaning part is little tricky but easy, I suggest once you finished cleaning dispose the waste immediately out of your house as the waste from squid fish is very smelly and also it starts leaving water .So dispose the waste of squid as quick as possible. Other than that the fish tastes heaven , spicy, yummy and very easy to cook. I have...
