Things have been happening...:)

Hey you guys out there,

Dunno if any of you are actually following my blog( I like to imagine you are , though:) ...but if you had been , you would have probably forgotten all about me by now...its been more than six months since I wrote anything...

But my word, the new products that I have prepared and sold are quite a many...a many...a many...
Instant Sambar mix, Peanut laddoo, Garlic achar, Lime pickle, Poondu podi, gongura pickle and allam pachadi and more...

On a personal front, I shifted houses, and did not have internet connectivity...so i was far far away in Blah Blah land...where I could just talk but not write...

More later....

The growing product list

It seems to me that I am in this business of home made foods more for the challenge of trying out a new recipe (either a thokku, or pickle, or masala, or podi or a sweet), rather than try and find newer and better means of selling it. I am unable to stop. The creative satisfaction this provides is unending :) I tried pickles like lime and garlic in various ways. Planning to add more healthy and tasty pickles like kalakkai, amla and methi.  I tried a pudina podi and that came out beautifully too.:)  Planning to stock in a small way at a couple of retail outlets.

Back again - with Inji Puli or Puli Inji - a Onam Sadya recipe.

Ahem!!  Are you guys out there ?  Wondering where I had  disappeared ?  Did you really think I had fallen from the cooking pot into the fire ? 😀or fallen off the edge of the counter ? or stewing in the sink ?  Not at all. I was savouring 😋  my own Inji Puli and could not get a second helping for myself  - it vanished within a few minutes, right under my reluctant eyes. My family wanted it all.  It all started when I left for a short trip to Chennai (btw that's one of the reasons I was absent from my blog ) . I met my sister and she asked me "hey malli, why don't you prepare Inji puli - its a hot favourite with my family and friends."   And when I returned to Bangalore, where I live, that's just what I did!! Inji puli is a mix of ginger, tamarind and garlic , mashed together in oil and serves as a paste to be eaten with rice, as a chutney to be eaten with idlis and dosas and as a spread to be eaten with Indian bread or chapathis. Its a pickle, a paste,
