Erachi Choru / Meat Rice

Erachi choru/Meat Rice is an easy to prepare dish which looks and tastes like Biriyani. Beef/Mutton gravy is prepared first and the rice is cooked in that gravy. All the spicy flavours added to the meat gravy are thus well blended with the rice so that the rice tastes yummy. Try out this easy tasty recipe ...All the very best !!!

Kerala Style Prawns Fry

Kerala Style Prawns Fry is a spicy, flavorful dish, which is considered to be the signature dish of Kerala, the God’s own country. Prawns are super tasty. When it comes with the aromatic flavors of fresh herbs, the taste is just awesome. I have skewered each prawn before frying to retain a long shape and thus a fancy look. We can use wooden skewers/fresh eerkkili (tender rib of coconut leaves)/tooth pick for this.

Shredded Egg / Mutta Chikkiyath

This is an easy tasty dish which can be prepared in 10 min. I usually prepare it for breakfast with wheat dosa. That’s a good combination and is an easy way to manage the breakfast for those who are running out of time in the morning.

Fish molly

Fish Molly is a very popular Kerala style fish curry which is mostly served with appam. But my vote is always for ghee rice+ fish molly combination, the taste is just awesome. It is mild and delicious as the fish is cooked in coconut milk.  Usually, fish molly is prepared with King-Fish(Neymeen), but it is also tasty with Pomfret(Avoli) and Pearl Spot fish(Karimeen).

 

Chettinad Mutton Curry

 
 

 Chettinad cuisines are famous for its spicy taste and aromatic flavour.  Chettinad mutton curry is a spicy, semi gravy preparation and is my most favourite mutton dish.

Schezuwan Chilly Beef

Delicious Butter Chicken

Butter Chicken is an Indian classic dish from the Punjab region which is now popular  in many countries all over the world. It can be made as mild or spicy as you wish. It is a full flavoured dish that complements the chicken well. 

I still remember the day I prepared this dish first. Two years back, on one bright Sunday morning,  when I was about to prepare chicken curry for lunch, my husband asked me : " why don't you try  something different, like butter chicken?" .I searched in my handbooks for the recipe and I got an easy one. Although it was not a great success that day, I came up with a wonderful dish finally after the initial trials. Here I am sharing with you all the tips and tricks I am using to make it delicious.
