Dear Rama,
It is not actually baking a second time. It is just keeping it warm for a longer time to make it more crisp.The fat content being low, otherwise it may be a little soft in the centre.

Dear Nandhu,
Thanks a ton (or a million?) !
Yes, I do need help, very badly.Though I think, I have included all the recipes, a few are likely to have been missed out inadvertently.
Just make a random search for a few recipes from the recipe index, in the A-Z thread & write to me the list of those that do not appear! I will be very thankful!!
Love,

My mistake .. how can I do it.. how can I even think about it...

How could I have asked that - its like asking Sun if it needs my help for torchlight ------

WOW.. you are so organized.. everything are in A-Z recipes..

I did not check completely.. but did the following

(1) Cook n bake
(2) Rasams - Had separate section for soups as well
(3) Modern Microwave cooking

I will look for other sections as well.. but I bet that it might all be included in the recipe list... By chance, if they are missed, will let you know :)

Chitra Maami you amaze me always !! lot to learn from you.. .. not just recipes ;)

dear Mrs chitra ji ,if given a choice between an otg that has a max temp of 250 and a one with 270 which one should be preferred and why.what is turbo air function?thanks and regards,humera.

Dear Humera,
I personally feel 250 is sufficient.
I saw the following on the net about turbo air fnction.

the turbo will "surge" making a kinda 'wub wub wub wub' sound (I've heard this) and go between spinning forward and backwards with the unequal pressures.

I don't think, you need to bother much about it. It is spinning forward & backward from what I understand.
Love,
Chithra.
