Prepping for a salad
Hi everyone, here is another video that I made early last year.
Its about making a big batch of salad and keeping it throughout the week.
It is so much easier to snack on a premade salad when hungry then to actually make one from scratch.
Enjoy the video, everyone.

Malabar spinach stir fry
Просмотров 36214 дней назад
Malabar spinach, also called pasaley keerai in Tamil is a very tasty vegetable. It is traditionally cooked with lentils in Indian homes and made into a thick stew called a ‘kootu’. Today however, I am using this healthy green leafy vegetable to make a simple stir fry with garlic. So simple to make and yet so very tasty.
Traditional South Indian Sambar

This is another video that I made very early into my RUclips journey so you might find me a little less chatty or perhaps a little stiff. I am trying to clear up all the old videos as much as I can, so do bear with me, everyone. In this video I cook a large batch of Sambar in order to freeze in small quantities. This way, we are able to enjoy delicious South Indian Sambar as an accompaniment to...
Keerai Kadayal with lentils
Просмотров 9528 дней назад
This is another video taken at the very beginning of my RUclips journey so you might find me sounding a little different. Meaning a little less at ease and perhaps less chatty! This recipe is a traditional South Indian dish which is hearty and wholesome. You could say it is an Indian version of creamed spinach. Do try making it. It is delicious.
Spicy stir fried beans & carrot with tempeh
Просмотров 311Месяц назад
This is a simple dish of stir fried beans and carrot in a classic Malaysian style. It is slightly spicy and very flavouful. The addition of Tempeh to this dish makes it so much more nutricious and gives this dish an added oomph. Tempeh has a slightly salty and nutty flavour and is a very good vegetarian source of protein. Do give this dish a try, and you will not regret it.

This is a simple chutney that I love to have with dosas. Its spicy and tangy and the perfect combination to a nice, hot and crispy dosa. Do try making this simple chutney, guys. Its very different from the usual coconut chutney. Happy Cooking.
Homemade Chilli Flakes
Просмотров 953Месяц назад
Hi everyone, for some years now, I have been making my own spice powders. I try as much as possible to make things from scratch whenever I can. The food definitely tastes better and I feel happier as well, knowing that my spice powders are clean and fresh. However, this is not always possible due to time constraint and the effort it takes. Making chilli flakes, on the other hand is quite simple...
Ridge Gourd with Chicken
Просмотров 116Месяц назад
This is a really delicious recipe, everyone. I never liked vegetables of the gourd variety as a child and even when I was well into my teens. It was only in adulthood that I started appreciating the nutritional value of these vegetables and in time I actually begun to appreciate and enjoy the taste as well. This is one of my favourite recipes. It was a stirfry that my mother used to make that I...

You are brave to talk about this. Thank you for sharing ❤
@@daleetharajendiram8622 Thank you so much for saying this. I made this video more than a year ago. And have just posted it. Took me that long… thank you for the encouragement. ❤️
@Shakilashanmugam262 glad you did. Kudos to you.

They are stemmy because of lack of light. Put them in direct sunlight
@@yogaomega5850 thank you. That is true. 😊
It would be good if you could list out the measurements of the ingredients below all your videos.
@@FARTAN-v1y the recipe is listed at 1.51 onwards. 😊
Its SAD that you give measurements of the baking tin and no written recipe ehich is the most important.
@@anithaps6502 Hi. The recipe is listed in 1.51 onwards.
Yes the cake has come out wonderful and more than the cake the way your face shine and glitter after the bake that truly wonderful. Oh yeh, you should have used butter scotch essence instead of vanilla and little bit of brushing with honey on top after baking must have been a good idea
@@sheeloo6121 That is so sweet of you. 😍And thanks for the tip.
Goans put Okra in fish curry. Very common.
@@delectable288 That’s interesting. Thanks for sharing that with me. ❤️
I enjoyed seeing you bake this lovely cake. It was a great vid. Thank you for sharing with us 💕
@@julierogers-iq2xr thank you so much.
You don't need to soak the dal if you are pressure cooking it. Two whistles and you're done.
@@annageorge8415 Hi, that is true , however, the reason for soaking is mainly to help reduce the content of lectins and other compounds in dal so that it is more easily digestible.

Thank you for taking the time to explain about all the different ways for cooking dalcha. Listening to you makes me smile. My father used to say, when he was still alive.. 😂 Wish you lots success. Thank you for all the tips too. Just love it
@@mohamedfazlon6240 you’re welcome and thank you for saying that. I often worry that I’m too chatty. 😂 This makes me feel that I should just be me. And Yes… fathers are super special and are always present in our thoughts. 😍
@ you don’t come across as too chatty.You seems very sincere and generous to impart your knowledge. I am quite a seasoned cook but I still learn something from you. Anyway, I don’t want you to think that I am too chatty 😄 take care for now
@@mohamedfazlon6240 😂😂
Nice… very pleasant to watch you cooking. I am definitely adding lots of chilli powder so I don’t have to share with my wife. Your new fan. Have a nice day. Subscribed.

Fish curry powder name please
@@kamilawahab7742 Hi, at the moment I use store bought fish curry powder. The brand name that I use is ‘Baba’s’. 😊
@ thank you 😊
Please could you tell me the fish masala you use
Madam when you say tablespoon what spoon size are you referring to? Is it normal size eating spoon? I see frm video the tablespoon is quite small. Tq
Hi dear, I was using a normal tablespoon. The kind that we use to eat. However, this depends on how thick you want the curry to be. If you want a thicker curry, do add more curry powder. ❤

Your recipes are great..thank you. Just a request...please use a microphone as sometimes your voice is soft & indistinct in the video...
Thank you so much for the feedback. I have since moved on to a better microphone. At the moment, I tend to mix my videos and do not post videos in accordance to the time that I actually made the videos. Hope to get more streamlined soon. Thank you for following me on this journey.❤

So true, Shanti. Also, motivation to step into the kitchen. So sorry for the late response!
Hi guys…. I chose this song thinking that it was about the city of Adelaide, only to find out that it’s abt a love story that is part of the writer’s family history. It’s about the love shared by the writer’s family , a girl called Adelaide and a sailor. ❤it’s a beautiful song nonetheless…
NO. MILK. IN THE. CAKE. THAT. LOOKS. NOCE
Tastes a whole lot better too whether in dishes or for something to munch 😉
@@shantimukundan4150 Yes! So true. ❤️

Those grew up in the plantation, have nostalgic memories. Your narrative is fantastic and documenting Malaysian Indian’s cuisine is timely .. WELL DONE
Thank you so much for saying that. Makes me feel very encouraged. And yes! I do have very fond memories of a childhood in a place that was so secluded and yet so nourishing. ❤️
My mom used to cook sardine curry the same way for the family when we were young. Now, when i cook sardine curry, at times i add hard boiled eggs too.😊
Hey, that’s nice to know. Hard boiled eggs? That sounds lovely too. Yummy!❤️
No milk
Yes, I don’t normally add milk.
I've been influenced by her too. Have to make this.
