Oh! I did not know that you can cook.

Thanks Nov for the tips. I normally do not add
condensed milk to the dough.
Some people also add an egg to the dough.
I will try resting the dough before flattening it.

I make the green chillie pickle for my noodles.

Good Nov, I like your contributions.
More ideas the better.
Thanks.

Kugan,

I made TAALICHA KOZUKKATTAI and it turned out to be awesome.
I added 1/2tsp of hot coconut oil at the end and the taste was irresistable.

Next time i'm going to make more. Thank you very much for the wonderful recipe. I will try all your vegetarian recipes one at a time and post my fb.
