Wow,unga amma collection superb,amma ammathan,sema explanation pa,evlo porumaiya explain panringa
Thank you dear ❤️ 👍🏻
Hi Mena. It will be very useful for newly coming people. I think you missed about kadai. From my opinion, for newly coming people bring triplated stainless steel kadai. Here I am using low thick kadai in coil stove which causing bumps that we can’t use for frying or low oil cooking. We can use only for deep fry. Keep a thick bottom kadai. Also a coconut scraper or something to get coconut from fresh coconut. Video is very useful
Thank you dear ❤️ yes da I missed it .. very true 🙌🏻 we don’t get Kadai type stuff here , mostly it is sauce pan and fry pans. When I make India vlogs I will make a series of shopping vlogs da that time I will add this da 😊😊Thank you for letting me know da 🙌🏻oh yes I have coconut scraper tool and I did not show it😂 Thanks for reminding me
Awesome explanation Amma when ever my nieces come to India they carry with them all the things like u have shown❤
Thank you sis ❤️❤️

Can you explain how you seasoned the clay pots. I too bought one from Indian store in USA but it absorbs lot of water and takes so much time to get hot while cooking. All your videos are too good and helpful. Thanks.
Thank you sis ❤️ I seasoned it in India itself sis. The other two I bought here , so i seasoned them here. When I was living in rental apartment we did not use one bath tub . So I use to fill water in that tub and leave the clay pots immersed for a day. Then i took it out and cleaned with rice flour. Then I dried it completely under sun. The clay pots needs to be immersed fully in water atleast for 24 hrs. I usually leave it for more than 24 hrs. Then after drying completely i placed on stove and roasted shredded coconut in ghee or coconut oil. Then throw that roasted coconut and repeat the process , no need to immerse in water just wash it well with rice flour and then dry completely. Now it will be ready to use 🙌🏻
Useful information, thank u dear😍
Thank you sis❤️❤️

Hi, are you suggesting to buy stainless steel hot pack with lid like the left side (big one) or like the right side one?
Like bigger one lid da.. that will stay good for long .. but the lid in smaller one is not that good da, sometimes there will be a gap in that lid and water gets inside the lid during every wash ..
Ok thank you
