Pav Bhaji Masala Dosa Recipe | Crispy Dosa Batter Recipe

Pav Bhaji Masala Dosa Recipe 

Pav Bhaji Masala Dosa, is a real good twist to our usual masala dosa recipe. Its spicy, tasty, tangy and perfect to break the usual routine of plain dosas. We South Indians love our dosa and idly, its a life saver in the kitchen, weekly preparations of dosa batter is a staple even in our home. I never knew the whole techniques when I was at my parents place. Its only during my trial and errors did I actually learn to make perfectly crisp dosas, idlies, utamppam, paniyarams and so on. The recipe can get endless when it comes to dosa batter. I have hardly blogged about them that's because we usually have dosas idlies and the likes for breakfast or dinner and its like a rush hour marathon I hardly have the patience to sit and click pictures. But I am determined to post them beating the odds ;-). Now lets move on to the recipe.

Chettinad Style Vada Kari | Steamed Low fat Vada Curry | Step by Step Recipe

Chettinad Vadai Kari

Chettinad cuisine is truly special in their use of fresh spices and I am a big fan of this cuisine. I have re- created many chettinad preparations like - Raw banana Kofta, Chettinad pakkoda curry, Chettinad Pavakkai Kuzhambhu, Chettinad mutton sukka varuval & Chettinad Chicken. Vadai Kari/ Vada Curry is a dumpling curry that is famous in South India usually served in hotels and tiffen joints along with hot idlies or dosas. I already posted Amma's version of Vada Curry but today I wanted to do a twist and make it in a chettinad style using fresh roasted spices. The result was an excellent curry, also I have made the vadas/ vadai using a steaming method, its low fat version and can be enjoyed for a filling breakfast.

Ven Pongal ~ My style

Ven Pongal / Kara Pongal is a luxury to me that is quite rich and flavored, a delicacy that is fit for the Royals. But this is a staple dish in most South-Indian homes and in our house-hold this is a favorite to both fathers (Dad & Appa -FIL). Apart from both father's celebrating their birthday's on the same day, they also share the similar love for Ven Pongal.

A simple Coconut Chutney

Although there are many versions to the coconut chutney this is my version to the famous South Indian dip. I simply love this chutney to go with my idlies, dosa, pongal, kichidi and even chappathi (crazy na!) that's how much I love this. My coconut chutney is more diluted cos that is how I love it, not too thick and not too thin, somewhere in-between.

Mixed Veg Kichadi ~ Simple South Indian Breakfast

This a typical South-Indian  breakfast/ dinner recipe which is a weekly dish. But I make this only once a month and I love to add lots of veggies to make it a healthy and balanced meal.
