Dear Chitramma,

I made Kashmiri Roti for S's lunch box and he said though it tasted good, it was hard. What could I have done wrong? What brand of wheat flour you use?

Thanks again,

Love
Shyamala

Dear SS,
I avoid buying branded wheat flour. I usually buy wheat & grind in the flour mill.
If the rotis became hard
Either the dough was too stiff
Or
You roasdted it on the tava for long!
Love,
Chithra.

Dear Maami,
Can you please suggest some nice snacks with corn flour. By mistake my SIL has bought 5 pounds of corn flour instead of besan. Can i make Roti( Jolada roti , Karnataka, special). plz tell me the recipe also.
with regards & love,
vk

Dear VK, I have never tried makai ki roti - a wee bit tricky. The other names are new to me. Please refer on the net:
Sarson ka Saag and Makai ki Roti by Roti, Naan, Bread, Paratha

Vidpk.com - Makai ki roti & Loki ki bhaji by Chef Zakir

I mix this with besan, bajra flour, atta, ragi flour, rice flour etc to a lose dough, add fruit salt & make small oothappams.
Sorry for not being able to help you.
Love,
Chithra.

Dear chithra madam,
after a very long time iam posting in this thread
how long can we keep the boiled dals like kabuli channa,peas in the fridge?
also iam preparing peas sundal in the morning along with onions,tomato,but if i have it in the evening it gets spoiled some smell is coming,so where is the mistake,is it wrong to keep the cooked sundals for very long or itz in the method??? also we should not mix 1 or 2 pulses??? i mixed sprouted green moong & peas together,but it got spoiled....

Dear Chithra mam,

I read all your recipes and the sloka index and significance PDF file also After reading all I became a big fan of yours.

And can you please tell me link for sweet jangiri is in.

With regards,

Vidhya

Dear Viji, cooked lentils are best not stored because they become smelly.
In warm weather whatever is prepared in the morning will not last till evening. It is best to prepare fresh & eat!

Chithra.

Thankyou, Vidhya. I have never tried jangiri - it is beyond me, sorry!
Love,
Chithra.

Yes, i put on the tava on low flame as I was busy with the day's cooking on the other burners. I will never repeat the mistake again.
Wheat as we get in the shops or ration? Do we have to dry it or just like that give it to them to grind? Pl let me know.

Today made MW Puliitta Keerai with Amarnath. The taste was good but the colour changed totally. What is partially covering the bowl? How to do it? I use pyrex/ borosil bowls only. Only a big one I have with lid on top. Pleas let me know.

Love
Shyamala
