JELABIS

Hi, Most of the sweets what we think very tough to prepare are actually very easy to make. One such sweet is Jelabi , I love jelabi for its juicy,colourful and aromatic flavour. I was thinking jelabi is a magic sweet and it requires some different ingredients ,and only experts can make it.I realized my justification was wrong when I saw my sister made this jelabis ,Though my sister is not much interested in cooking but she is good in making sweets.She gave me this recipe along with tips. I noted the recipe but didn't get time to make , finally after many viewers request for Jelabi recipe I pushed myself to prepare for this Dussehra.As I don't want to make Jelabis with Maida / All purpose flour ( due to its health issues) I used using Urad dal ( which is little healthier compared to maida). I cannot comment on the jelabis shape as I am never expert in making shapes but i can assure the taste , they are little crisp at outer with spongy,juicy inside ,melts in mouth....

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...
