This is Indianised version of peanut butter. Take my word and try this once and you will never ever regret it. But this goes only with idlis, dosas and uttapams.
I created this recipe for my son, who was once a "challenging" eater who would eat anything in a waffle. I was amazed to find that it was, actually, pretty darn good. Whole grain, great protein, fiber...
This recipe came from our local grocery store (Festival Foods). I made it for the family and it was a hit. I always make enough for two dinners worth. On the first night, I serve it soft. The leftovers...

Can't stand store bot microwave popcorn? Me too. Perfect results with just a few un-popped kernals and you get to add salt the way you want. We love the tangy taste of olive oil on ours. We like Parmesan...

This light, fruity, nutty salad is a nice change from potato or pasta salad as a barbecue side dish and is always popular at potlucks. I got it from the Silver Palate Cookbook.
