PESARUT / SPROUTED MOONG DAL DOSA

Hi Everyone, This dosa is an Andhra Dish but  we all love it, also it is healthy . I have already posted you the Moong dal sprouts recipe ,I used the same dal to prepare this moong dal dosa ,They call it as Pesarut. Normally they make it with unsprouted moong dal . T he green moong dal will be soaked in water for 6 to 7 hours and then grounded to form   batter and   they will make it into dosa immediately as it requires no fermentation. But I prepare this entirely in different way I use sprouted dal and also I will ferment the batter before making it into dosa as I don’t like raw smell of batter in dosa and also we need crispy   dosas.

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...
