Ennai thakkali gravy:

tomato 2 cups
onion 1 cup
pepper 1 tsp
chilli powder & mustard 1 tsp each
coconut 1/4 cup
urad dal 1 tsp
kuskus 1/2 tsp
cinnamon, haldi, sugar
cashew 10
ginger paste 1/2 tsp
garlic 6 flakes (split)
green chillies 1
saunf 1 tsp
dhania powder 1 tsp
cloves 1

To garnish: Coriander & mint leaves

Heat oil, add mustard, urad dal and onion saute well.

Add tomato with all powders, chillies, garlic(mashed), ginger paste and sugar; cook well.

Grind coconut, cashew, kuskus, saunf, cinnamon, cloves with garlic well with water. Add the paste to the above gravy with enough water and cook for some time.

Finally, garnish with leaves.

Some points from me:

When I made this gravy, added 1 tomato and rest used quarter tin of tomato paste.

And, abt cashew, you can add peanut (2 tbsp) and the taste was good. As usual, reduce the coconut qty to 2 tsp

Can reduce the garlic qty since here, the garlic smell and the taste is very hot. Similarly with pepper or chillies, put according to yr taste.

In my house, no one loves spices; so put half cloves, a pinch of saunf etc. Anyways, just take the recipe and do the variation on yr own!!

Ellu urundai:

White sesame 1 cups
Rice flour 1/4 cup
salt a pinch
jaggery 1 cup
ghee

Dry fry seed till the color changes slightly.

Heat ghee(1 tbsp) add flour, fry till the flavor comes out. Grind the fried seed with flour enough to make balls.

Yummy and simple sweet is ready.

My variation:

For Vinayaka chathurthi, use to make this. I dont add rice flour; plain sesame seed with jaggery will also gives a good taste. Adding flour makes the urundais little dry in texture which is my personal opinion.

Thak you for the recipe R ! I think i watched this sanwich recipe but the Ennai thakkali gravy seems new to me so it might be the one which showed on last friday and it looks yummy too.Really appreciate your help!

[R]

Are u talking abt the other sandwich(with some cooked vegetables alongwith fresh round cut veg.,?). I dont write any dates, so not sure which is which??

Let me kinow..

[R]

This enna thakkali is a very old one. As I mentioned, dont post it in the order. Whichever inspired me the most, will try and post it here. So, it is always in jumbling order..

[Urmila]

Thanks R for posting the juice recipes. Just came back 2 days ago from a short trip, will surely try out this week itself. Bye.

[Raathi]

I guess watched this sanwich recipe too ( with some cooked vegetables alongwith fresh round cut veg.,) this one showed on last thursday (think she made it in a small electric griller or using a sanwitch maker).

it's ok R! please continue your regular postings if that missed show
recipe is a good one you would try and post it here.
