Moong Sprouts Palya (North Karnataka Style) | ಮೊಳಕೆ ಹೆಸರುಕಾಳಿನ ಪಲ್ಯ (ಉತ್ತರ ಕರ್ನಾಟಕ ಸ್ಟೈಲ್) - Reposted

April 01, 2013

ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಓದಲು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ಲಿಕ್ ಮಾಡಿ. I always appreciate the North Karnataka style of food. If you go to Hubli, Dharwar, Haveri, etc. regions of North Karnataka, Roti (Rotti) is the main item of food everywhere. Their kind of Jawar roti accompanied by varieties of side dishes and powders..ahha..it tastes divine!! In Bangalore also, we can see this kind of food here and there. There is a small stall near Vajayanagar Bus Stand. They offer different varieties of rotis, side dishes and chutney powders of North Karnataka style. If you go there any time, you can see so many people near that stall to take roti parcels! When I used to stay in Vijayanagar, we used to visit there almost every week-end to avoid the hostel food. Among all the side dishes, we loved Badnekayi (Eggplant) Ennegayi and Hesarukalu (Moong Sprouts) Palya along with roti most of the times. I learned this Moong Sprouts Palya recipe from a Kannada cookery show long back. Then, few changes are made in the origin...

Ginnu | Junnu | Posu | Kharvas | ಗಿಣ್ಣು

March 07, 2013

ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಓದಲು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ಲಿಕ್ ಮಾಡಿ. Mostly people who have a rural base will be familiar with this recipe. Ginnu is a sweet dish prepared from lactating cow's milk or colostrum milk of cow. Normally, first day's milk will be thicker and it can be used to prepare Ginnu. Often its called as 'Posu', 'Junnu' or Kharvas in different languages. In my native place, its called as 'Battalu Ginnu'. We both are the great fans of Ginnu. Being away from native, we rarely get a chance to enjoy this sweet dish. One of my sister stays Hyderabad. She keeps preparing Ginnu using a powder mixture which they get there. Even I searched, but never found such a mixture in Bangalore. I had tried making Ginnu using normal milk by referring recipes on the net, but the taste was not that great. Last week, I had a chance to taste Ginnu at my mother's place. Mom prepared it twice and I enjoyed eating :) Preparing Ginnu using colostrum milk is damn easy. Also, won't ...

Sakkare Holige (Obbattu) | ಸಕ್ಕರೆ ಹೋಳಿಗೆ (ಒಬ್ಬಟ್ಟು)

February 13, 2013

ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಓದಲು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ಲಿಕ್ ಮಾಡಿ. Just think of a situation where you are expecting some guests and confused what to prepare for them. Ideal condition is that it should be a sweet which is neither too simple nor too difficult and it will be nice if it can be stored for few more days..right? Here is one such recipe which I learnt from my mother. Unlike other varieties of Holige (Obbattu) we prepare, it will not be that soft; its kind of crispy and not too sweetish. Best thing I admire is that it can be stored up to 15 days! All the credit for this recipe goes to my mother. These days, I am out of my kitchen and busy with my little one. I just clicked some photos and noted down the measurements while my mother was preparing Sakkare Holige (Obbattu). I am thinking of posting some more delicacies from mother's kitchen till I am back to cooking. Hope to see you all with new recipes soon! Here is the recipe of Sakkare Holige (Obbattu)..

November 15, 2012

ಕನ್ನಡದಲ್ಲಿ ಓದಲು ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕ್ಲಿಕ್ ಮಾಡಿ. From past couple of months, I am not able to update my blog regularly. That's why, some of the recipe picks I clicked long back are still pending with me. Today I was just glancing at them and got inspired to write this recipe! Marige Gojju is one of the traditional recipes of Havyakas. The name Marige Gojju is because of a special kind of vessel called as 'Marige' which was used to prepare this recipe.

But we can see this 'Marige' in some houses of Malnad. Here is the recipe of Marige Gojju which I learnt from mom. Try and taste this Gojju for your lunch or dinner.. Preparation Time: 15 minutes Servings: 4 Ingredients: Cooking oil - 2 1/2 tsp Urad dal - 1/4 tsp 5 - 6 dry red chillies Sesame seeds - 1/2 tsp Pinch of asafoetida Mustard...
