CHENNAI BRIYANI BRINJAL

தமிழில் காண : கிளிக்  Hi All, CHENNAI BRIYANI BRINJAL ! Chennaians must have surely tasted this brinjal curry with briyani.In Chennai briyani will be served along with this brinjal curry and raita , Brinjal curry and Dum briyani are best combination. They cook the brinjal in such a way that we can see the brinjals floating in gravy but it will be very soft that you cannot take the pieces separately ,the brinjals will just blend well with briyani and melts in mouth. My husband who hates brinjal to core ,will eat this brinjal curry alone.So I got this recipe from my Chennai neighbour and I make this curry only with briyani :) .

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...
