hi Krishnamma, great thrad and lot of good recepies, thank you for the same. I have suggestion while making thirattupal instead of standing by the vessel if you have other work just add a small lid(like a small coffee filter lid) of some dabba lid and stir occasionally it doesn't boil over. uma
Hi Mals, yes you have to make like 'medhuvada' and then fry. You have to use only Raw rice. Ok? (sorry for delay. I returned India and past two days I am very tired.)
Dear Krishnamma, Yesterday, I was thinking about enquiring to you about how to get khoya. Then today, I just browsed thru ur thread and got it. Thanx. Why were there no posts from u for the past couple of days? Were u busy with the diwali items? bye.
Hi Saraswathi, I am now in India and even I will not be able to visit IL promptly for one more week. Because of Deepavali. Happy Deepavali to you.:hiya
