Home style mutton soup.
Mild curry made with ripe tomatoes.
Deep fried grated carrot balls, one good side for any South Indian meal, a great nutritious snack for kids, wonderful vegetarian appetizer item for guest entertaining. (Carrot Balls / Carrot Vadai )
Cauliflower and Green peas cooked in rich coconut tomato gravy.
Minced meat cooked in coconut gravy. My favourite breakfast side which goes well with hot idlis , dosai or poori.
Great street side fast food, most requested Tamil Nadu famous Muttai Kothu Parotta. (Kothu Parotta/ Chilli Parotta / Muttai Kothu parotta / Egg Parotta)
Indian Broad Beans ( Avarakkai in Tamil / Chikkudukai in Telugu / Sem in hindi / Avarekayi in Kannada / Avara in Malayalam ) curry made in South Indian style, little baby prawns or salad shrimp adds a classic homely touch to this dish. This type of broad beans is termed as Naatu avarakkai in tamil, looks thin and broad with soft seeds inside, but the one which we get in US is called seema avarakkai and looks different, long and thick and might take little longer to cook. Sometimes the closest substitute which can be found is Scarlet runner beans. Haven't explored much about this veggie, will keep an eye and update the exact name. Here are some links from wikipedia, which I found useful while googling…
Upma with a twist, little unusual combination, but a must try fancy feast. Semolina cooked in coconut milk along with finely minced goat meat.
Restaurant Style Paneer Butter Masala is a creamy rich tomato onion gravy simmered with fresh Indian cottage cheese!
