I like Chitvish thread Tantalizing Pachadis.... I keep trying them out and wow!!!!! they are simple to cook and delicious to taste... When my friends say "Yo" I tell them that my friend in Chennai helps me out through IL of course.....

caramel payasam, veg biriyani are great

I think any chitvish recipe will be a hit if we follow her recipe as she has mentioned.

Hi
Great idea to start a thread like this. Chira Aunty deserves due credit for all her recipes. At home, my mom does the cooking ... I dont cook but I'm a great critic! I sometimes consider a career as a food taster! just kiddin ...

Of Chitra Aunty's recipes, my favourites are the vegetarian dhansak, caramel payasam, pink pal payasam, and the oothappams. Now, I feel like a judge of a contest who says "all contestants were good but the first prize goes to _____!!!" Its really diffcilut to choose favourites. Amma has tried most of the recipes n wach one is a masterpiece.

Great recipes and keep it going!!!
