Dear Kannan anna, I tried my friends idea of adding 1 tbs of rava to the channa dal mixture.
The vadai was very crispy. You have to add the rava just before frying the vadai.
I had the golden color too.
Thanks and take care. Kugan

these were just $1.99. I forgot to take the picture of fresh rice noodles. Next time I will upload.
I made the FRIED KUEY TEOW with the fresh noodles, it tasted so so so so good with the fresh ones. ennaku avlo sandosham K. laptop illama I was so angry that I could not refer ur recipe but now I checked I have done exactly what u have given. In the packet I bought it was written microwave it for few mins then separate the noodles and add to the recipe so I did so. You have written nicely loosen the noodles what do u mean by that K. No need for microwaving just loosen it with hands am i right?
Also these noodles are feeling little oily in hand, is it so there too? Or the ones I bought are so.

K this time I bought Lee kum kee brand soy sauces, dark , regular and double fermented. these were better then the kikkoman. Its written in the back that its from china, I also saw some from singapore. I also was tempted to buy the mushroom sauce but three things made me worry. The sauce I saw had MSG as well as preservatives. The mushroom in the picture looked like Shitake mushroom I am so allergic to shitake. Always ended up with severe stomach cramps. But now I am feeling I should have bought because ur tofu brinjal recipe calls for that sauce.
Is mushroom sauce different from mushroom soya sauce?
where is your pooja spread K? can you please post the full recipe of this masala vada it looks like the tea kadai ones in chennai.

Thank you very much Sangeetha for your nice post. It brought lots of happiness to me.
As for the rice noodles, since it is kept in the fridge it would be hard.
That's why they ask you to microwave for few minutes.
You can leave it outside to thaw on it's own too.
The one I bought was in big slabs, I had to cut them in strips.
You can loosen with your hands or a fork.
Sangeetha all the rice noodles will be a little oily. So nothing to be scared of.
I am very very happy that you found the fresh rice noodles, and the dish was tasty.
Thanks and take care, Kugan.

Thank K for the masala vadai recipe and the tofu recipe. Haa vadai looks so perfect. Saturday try panna poren.
K I tried your tofu with brinjal yesterday night for adai. I made double the quantity but it was finished by my husband. nice combination and was very easy to make.
Inga bayangara sale for diwali. ghee, saffron,all kinds of dal,rice,cardamom, oil etc mostly groceries. K here chives are sold in 1 pound bags only so I always avoided to buy it. i did not know one can use it as keerai . i thought it was herb. but your bean sprouts and tofu fry calls for 200 gms of chives. so i think i can use lots of them in all kind of stir fyrs i guess.
thanks to your sister sumithra too for sharing such traditional recipes.
K you know how much i have bookmarked, I have lot of your recipes waiting on the list to try out like the seeni sambal and other sambals, ur kathirikai kulambu from the caters but sometimes my hubby ask for repetitive ones like the chille potato, sothi etc. there r lots to try out. and when u post new ones i get so attracted to them and shop the things required. i very much feel bad that i came cross your kitchen very late.
