This magical yogurt making process wonders many even though this is a routine in many households back home…in particular, all first timers, newly wed girls…. just pondering over Google for help, considering it to be a difficult task.

Kale is one tough leafy vegetable with woodsy stalks and chewy leaves similar to Murungai Keerai, leaving us with few recipe options. Cooking this with lentils was considerably easy for intake with minimal effort. Tried this with Bengal gram, following traditional kootu preparation and had no problem with picky eaters.  Fresh kale (green or purple) belong to the Wild cabbage / Broccoli family, rich in anti-oxidants with high nutrition content. These type of veggies usually get a red carpet welcome in my kitchen and will be honoured with lentil studded crown.

Chilli Gobi is an appetizer or starter commonly found in restaurant menus. This is similar to cauliflower manchurian except its extremely spicy, more Indianised. Unlike manchurian this is not a chunky or wet, this is very dry with less saucy stuff.

Sambal is a condiment used in Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Sri Lanka and some parts of Southeast  Asia, usually made with variety of Chili peppers. This has got numerous varieties and varies with every region. My preparation is a fusion style Sambal / Sambol covering traditional taste. Most Indonesian sambol includes shrimp paste or dry ground shrimp and I've substituted with fresh ones. You can also use store bought sambal paste.

Freshly squeezed apple juice is also called as sweet cider, mostly this is pasteurised for long life and sold in supermarkets under refrigerated section. Here my recipe is for fresh sweet cider with thick cloudy apple juice which retains most nutrients when compared to filtered store bought juice. There's always a negative factor for unpasteurized fruit juices concerning E-coli, but if done in an hygienic way this could be avoided. Moreover this recipe of mine is good for immediate consumption, if you fear contamination then heat this juice, cool and refrigerate.
