Rava Dosa and Puli poha

I dont think I have ever ordered rava dosa at a restaurant. The only reason being that any time, I am there, I already have a tough time choosing between Dosa and Uttapam. My friend used to make them over weekends. And then I realised that this dosa has holes and is easier to make than the rest. With Onion rava dosa, once the pan got hot, I could see the holes as soon as the batter hit the pan.
Usually I dont like raw onions, but since they get a little cooked, they add a nice flavor to the rava dosa an remind me of the uttapam studded with onions and vegetables.
Chettinad tomato chutney  on the side.
A friend was telling recently about how they pack seasoned tamarind paste on trips and add it to moistened poha. tamarind poha is on the same lines. You know the tamarind quantity is right, when you can smell it.
poha pulao sounds interesting.

Banana pudding

I went over the roasted banana pudding recipe from yesterday and found it too consuming (shopping time, dishes, baking time), I finally decided on  caramelized banana pudding . And meringue making is merry. Flour is used in making the custard.  all purpose flour plays the corn starch  role of thickening the custard. I used  Parle G  instead of vanilla wafers.

Slices and Stallions

While there are books that are all about just one ingredient like Flavored oils and vinegars there are others that are about a gamut of things. Everything Pizza cookbook has recipes for all the kinds of pizza that there can be with different crusts, sauces, cheeses, toppings. Smoked Salmon Pizza, Polenta Pizza. Cooking for engineers Tasso Ham . When I read that Tasso is also the name of an Italian poet, I wanted to point to his work too. I looked for it but found it in prehistoric language. It so happens that I am reading poems about horses and recognised Tasso's name beneath his poem translated. Second paragraph has life infused in it with equine motions. Another poem that I like in this collection is 'New Foal' by Ted Hughes.
