    Hi R,

    Why don't you post the recipe version of Eriseri which you make at home - so that we could also try out the same - for a change.

    Secondly, regarding yr. Nombu Adai query - at my M-in-laws place they make this Adai during "kaaradayan nombu" like you have mentioned both sweet & karam - so I thought of sharing it with the people.

    bye!!!

    Thanks, Sowmya and Pearl.

    This is how my MIL prepares erisseri.

    Erisseri
    :

    Vegetables yam 1 cup & plantain 1/2 cup
    Red chillies 2
    pepper 2 tsp
    coconut a handful
    haldi, salt

    seasoning

    coconut oil 1 tbsp
    mustard, urad dal & curry leaves

    Cut the veggies into cubical pieces and cook adding haldi, salt and enough water. Place yam at the bottom and on top, plantain will come so that yam will get the pressure to cook.

    Dry fry coconut, pepper and red chillies till they are hot. Grind nicely.

    Do seasoning with coconut oil; Put the cooked vegetables and the ground mixture. Let them boil well. Ready to serve.

    You can make erisseri kuzhambu or eriseri kootu depending on how you want. But, make sure the veggies should not get mashed and it should stay full.

    Optional:


    You can prepare erisseri using the above vegetables separately, though it is not a traditional one.

    Here is milagu kootu where my mother learnt from her SIL. Though her hub., is from Palakkad, I dont know for sure whether it is a traditional one or not, but it is quite common they make in her family.

    Chenai Milagu kootu:
    Yam 2 cups
    coconut 1 handful
    pepper 2 tbsp
    channa dal 1/2 cup
    salt and haldi

    seasoning:

    coconut oil 1 tsp
    mustard 1/2 tsp
    urad dal 1/2 tsp
    hing

    Cut yam into regular pieces just like how we do curries or kootu. Cook yam with channa dal adding enough water, salt and haldi.

    Grind pepper and coconut nicely w/w.o water. Do seasoning and add ground mixture and veggie mixture, mix well. Boil for some more time. Finally, garnish with curry leaves.

    Yummy milagu kootu is ready.

    ====================

    Above two kootus goes well with any rasam.

    Opinion

    Hi All
    Its good to see different versions of the same recipe.. and am enjoying this..
    I get the feeling that all recipes posted are traditional... yes traditional to the respective families ,passed on from one generation to another, minor variations are applicable everywhere regds the use of ingredients..
    But the gen palakkad way of cooking dishes is use of pepper,green chillies liberally to add a spicy flavour.,use of "naadan vegs" ie. the authentic indian vegs like yam,plantain etc compared to the english vegs like carrots,minimal use of onions,garlic .
    So that way.. the way I prepare Mor kozhambu or sambar may also be slightly different compared to the standard accepted forms.

    Plus... palakkad iyers are believed to be originally from thanjavur.. so we celebrate everything associated with TN as well as Onam,Vishu being the residents living,hailing from palakkad.Best of both worlds!!!!!!!!...
    Will post some more later
    Bye
