South Indian Lunch

This is Basmati Rice, Dhaal, Tomato Rasam and Beef fried sambal. (Clockwise)

 Everyone in my family enjoy having South Indian Cuisine, so my mom cooks it often. The combination of Rasam and Beef sambal is so yummy. It's best to have this menu on a rainy day when your tummy is always hungry. ;)

Sri Lankan Fish Patties (Deep fried pastries)

This is a Sri Lankan delicacy which is usually sold at all road side food stalls and restaurants. It can be made with chicken, salmon or beef filling. The original taste comes when made with salmon.
The dough is made without yeast/baking powder.

As locally called patties, is a tasty evening snack. Can be served with ketchup.

Breakfast on Eid

This is my mom's special breakfast on Eid. Batura, Channa dhal and butter chicken. Another name for Batura is Poori. It is made with atta/whole wheat flour. Channa dhal is basically chick peas.

Butter Naan is served best with Butter Chicken

This was a new style homemade butter naan made without a tandoori grill. That's the specialty of this naan. Best served with butter chicken.

 

I love Chinese!

Chinese Shrimp Fried Rice with Chilli prawns is the best combination!If pineapple cubes are added to the chilli prawns then it would be sweet and sour prawns.

Capsicums, onions and carrots are half cooked just ready for the sauce.

My breakfast today

Time flies in the kitchen! Isn't that strange? I always find it hard to finish my cooking on time. This was my breakfast today which took almost two hours to finish. I LOVE Macaroni with chicken and cheese. I mixed in some coriander to enhance the flavor and taste. It was so good.

Home Style Beef Biriyani

My mom cooks the best Biriyani in this entire world! Haha, you think it's too much exaggeration? Well, no. She does make it taste so heavenly. We love it when she adds fried brinjals to it. It's best when served with a curd raita. Here you goo...

Pani Puri Lovers should check this out (Indian street food)

Homemade Pani Puri

My mom loves Pani Puri and when ever she goes to Chennai, Tamil Nadu (India) she never misses to have this famous street food. Even I started to like this. You can find this anywhere in Tamil Nadu streets. So we decided to give it a try to make them at home, and it did result amazingly. It tasted so good.
