👈this kind of strainer is good<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: yellow;"><i><u>method</u></i></span></b><br />
wash rice and soak for 3 hours..keep it in fridge for 1 hour..take milk from 1 coconut adding required water..mix arrowroot powder in little water and keep aside..make sure not to take cornflour as it resembles arrowroot powder..take a blender add the drain rice,arrowroot mix,coconut milk along with 3 ice cubes and grind till mushy..(ice cubes-to avoid heating of ingredients and also a good tip for easy smooth grinding) take care to add coconut milk little by little, else it cant be ground well..strain these thin batter through a strainer and throw away the leftover stuff..add salt and mix well..add coconut milk till you get the right consistency(watery consistency) like palappam.. heat a nonstick pan, apply oil and put a ladlefull of batter and rotate the pan in such a way that the batter coats nicely all around the surface of pan..need not cover or flip..you can just take the dosa out with your hands easily..it gets such a texture that you can fold it like a handkerchief..you can feel that it melts in your mouth..so give a try,then eat and enjoy..<span style="color: red; font-size: large;"><i>👋👋</i></span><br />

<br />
here are some of my homegrown sword beans!! beans grow in abundance in september-december.. today i prepared sword beans upkari/mezhukkupuratti..my all time favourite..<br />
<br />
the process behind this upkari is something different from other upkaris..wash them well and split them into two halves with a knife..then you can see a thin layer of film with seeds..scrape the film and seeds out..if they are more tender you do not have to care this step..then cut the beans like thin pieces..heat a wok with 2 tabsp oil..when mustard splutters,add crushed chilly powder followed by the sword beans..sprinkle some salt and a few water,stir well and close with a lid..stir at intervels and let it cook in a low flame until it becomes soft..a yummy sword beans upkari is ready to serve..<br />
<br />
<span style="color: yellow;">⚔beans</span> upkari a good accompaniment to rice with dal or curd rice..<br />
<br />
<span style="color: yellow;">enjoy cooking!👋</span><br />

hi guys you may think this may be a silly tip..dont laugh at me 😞..believe it does help me a lot..usually i use thermal cooking, for rice..but sometimes when in a hurry, i will have to cook in pressurecooker..the problem is that after cooking the rice,my cooker turns messed up and its so hard to clean 😥..i think you would also be experienced this..here is a simple tip for you..try this and if you like please share with your friends..iam sure it would be helpful for them as well..here goes the tip 😉 ..<br />
<br />
adding rice and required water close the lid and take a long tissue paper (fold 2 or three times and make a small slit at the centre) and place above the cooker lid so as the vent tube passes through the slit..thats all what should you do..when the steam comes its absorbed by the tissue paper so the cooker looks always clean 😊 ..<br />

i like its taste more than the female papaya..but lack of availabiity is a problem because the male papaya flowers rearly bear fruits..in kerala people cut the male papaya when they came to know that it is a male plant..its very sad..i think it is due to some superstitious fear..we konkanis prepare male papaya upkari(mezhukkupuratti)as it is our favourite side dish..you must also try this recipe if you get the papaya..once you had its taste you wont cut the plant any longer..here the recipe goes..</div>

last month we had visited Dwaraka temple,Somnath,Nageshwar and also some other related temples around Gujarath..while purchasing,i have attracted a special divine idol of gopalakrishna, made up of solid brass with black coating..there they call him 'ladoo gopal'who is in a crawling pose having ladoo in his right hand ..and i bought many deity accessaries like holy flute,turbans,earstuds,neckwears,bangles,tilak etc etc to decorate my little krishna..one wooden holy throne was also bought for him..the deity dress,a different one, having varieties of jeri designs and colors,all looking awesome that i was totally confused to choose from the lots..<br />
iam proud to introduce Him to all my friends..this cute krishna will be one of a new addition to my next navaratri golu..<br />

here iam introducing not a threader but an easy threading Needle..<br />

<br />
how to thread the Needle<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
To use, simply hold both your needle and thread with the thumb and forefinger of one hand, and with the other hand, grasp the thread, pulling it gently but firmly over the "V" down into the eye of the needle..<br />
when you stitch and pull the needle repeatedly,the thread does not easily pop back out of the opening..thats how the needle behaves..3 strands can be passed through the slot easily..and this needle is too sharp as well..<br />
so not to worry guys! no need to squint as well !<br />
<br />
The lower eye is designed as usual way we are all familiar with: after squinting, pass the tip of the thread through the eye of the needle and pull..Hmmmm toooo boring isn't?so always try to use the slot-eye..<br />
<br />
here the threading of the needle is the step that is simplified with this tool, so it becomes an easy task to thread the needle for those who are tired or bored of threading so far..<b>:))</b><br />
<br />
i bought some packages of 6 needles from 'Jo-ann craft store' when i was in US..since then iam using this for all purposes including embroidery.. i also gifted to some of my friends and relatives who agreed that its very useful for easy threading..hope you all will adore it..<b>:)</b><br />

an indispensable household device for me..so i want to introduce it here..its just a 2 piece gadget- a round silicone disc having some big holes in the center with a small top silicone lid..actually this <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Boil-Over-Safeguard-Silicone-Spillovers/dp/B00BPYTPJC"><span style="color: #741b47;">Gadget</span></a> is used for boiling pastas in US which helps to prevent spilling overs..<br />
<br />
here i use this lid whenever i cook my rice..i dont like to cook rice in pressure cooker..i always boil the red rice in a pot on stove top for less than 15 minutes (for white rice 5 minutes is enough) and then keep inside the <a b47="" color:="" href="http://butterflyindia.com/kitchen-products/thermal-rice-cooker/"><span style="color: #741b47;">Rice Thermal Cooker</span></a>(non-electric)..after 1 hour its ready to serve..when boiling rice,i cover rice pot with this silicone disc with its cover and it helps me not to boil over outside the vessel..even if i put on high flame,no mess at all and no worry at all..no need of standing long near the kitchen counter and also saves more time for doing other works..besides,my gas stove and vessel will always be kept clean..yes i mean really it saves clean up in the kitchen..<br />
<br />
it can also be used for boiling milk,vegetable gravies or anything else..i dont think,so far it is available in india..i bought it when i was in US..i recommend this product for all of you and hope it will be come to india soon..<br />
