Apple Pulisseri
We are back after a long break. This time we will not disappoint and keep updating regularly. Pulisseri is a traditional dish in kerala cuisine. Its made with curd, coconut paste and generally with veggies like raw and sweet mango, kerala cucumber or white pumpkin. One of my very good friend brought a twist to this traditional recipe by adding Granny Smith Apples(Green Apples).I was a little wary as to how it would taste but to my surprise it was delish 😋. It had a mix of sweet,sour and spicy tastes. My little one loves this 😊 Do give it a try and let me know how it was!!

Stuffed Brinjal- Mom's Masterpiece Recipe
Happy Birthday Amma..My Best Friend...My Pride!! Today's recipe is dedicated to her, to celebrate her special day. This dish is her speciality, I have made this umpteen number of times but have never been able to replicate the same taste as she makes.Whatever I am today is because of her hardwork and dedication. She gave me a handwritten book of recipes when I was beginning the new phase of my life. That book still gives me the confidence to cook and also gives me a feeling that she is always present beside me :) Love you lots Amma :)

Aviyal
VISHU Greetings from Kitchen Tales!!- Vishu, signifies the malayali New Year. All malayalis celebrate this day with much fanfare and vigour. The day starts with "Vishukanni" meaning the first thing seen on the day of Vishu. The elders give "Vishukaineetam" to the younger ones and this is followed by a grand sadhya / feast.
Aviyal is the most prominent dish of any malayali sadhya. Its a combination of mixed veggies and coconut paste. Generally a lot of coconut is used to make this dish and it is dry. I have given a healthy twist to this traditional dish by reducing the coconut and adding yoghurt. Hope you all like this version.I learnt this from one of my friend who dwells from the state of Palghat in Kerala.

Kaju Katli
A traditional, most common and a very expensive one among the diwali sweets..Kaju Katli. There is an interesting story behind this. This is my first try of this royal sweet...Thanks to my little one. This is one of her favourite among Indian sweets. This year the first sweet box that we received was kaju katli. That's when she cutely asked me if i could make this at home for her. I accepted the challenge and completed it successfully. I was overwhelmed with joy to see her relish every bite that she took. I surfed various recipes on the net and this one is a combination of many recipes.
