Khao mok gai chicken Briyani rice

As an Indian, I’ve did many types of Briyani in Indian versions. Few Briyani types are more tricky to get the perfect tasty rice at all time. More over, those are various upon their cooking methods and ingredients too. Since, I like to explore on foods, today I’ve cooked chicken Briyani rice in Thai version, which known as Khao Mok Gai. It is very popular rice dish which you can find at all the time in Bangkok,Thailand.  It is very tasty and aromatic dish ever that I’ve made before this. Those roasted and ground spices made this dish so aromatic and flavoured. The tendency of the chicken pieces were so perfectly done with special ingredients that I used in.Just few ingredients I’ve grinned instead of pounding, but it doesn’t change the taste at all.  Literally this was my first time of cooking for this dish. I am so amazed once it’s turned out well with such a spiced flavory rice and perfect cooked tenderly chicken. So yummy...As a side dish, I’ve made Raita (oni...

My kids are heading back to school in next week,but they are still very much enjoying sleeping too long. So,today they had rava Idli for brunch. They loved it,although they haven't eaten it before. It was my first attempt ever on making this delicious rava idli for my family. Today morning, my husband had his breakfast before he leaves for work. He then eagerly go for second offering since its been one of his favourite breakfast. I was so happy to see people enjoying my cook.
Rava Idli has been in my mind lately since I saw an advertisement about instant rava on tv. I'm afraid to go on instant if it turned bad. Therefore,after some deep search on rava idli recipe,at last I've stumbled across Raks kitchen. She has used her own recipe for making rava Idli. Hence,I adopted her recipe. At last I made a perfect soft and delicious rava Idli. Rava idli with spicy coconut chutney makes an heavenly combination.

Hi there ! Today I'm really tired over some last minute kids school preparations. I'm ran out of time to purchase any vegetable or fishes at grocery store. So, canned sardines caught my eyes from my pantry staples.  Usually I try to avoid canned foods. But Sardine pack a nutritional punch. It also called as healthy food in a can. Sardine consist with high omega-3s and calciums.  Mathi or sardine is a popular fish in Kerala. Most of keralites like to use fresh sardines for their daily curry or fry dishes. I  preferred to use canned sardine in tomato sauce for all type of sardine dish. This  time, I made Mathi curry with white radish and boiled eggs in keralite way.  While cooking white radish in tangy tamarind and rich coconut milk,it certainly gives an awesome fragrant flavours by lingering whole over my apartment. It's really fabulous taste pairing with rice or capati. No worries since I'm ahead for kids lunch, Let's go on with my recipe; Ingredients Canned sar...
