Hi Harsha, thanks for uploading the recipes. I have been looking for the first receipe (pundi/marvai) and going to give it a try today. waiting to see more mangalorean recipes from you. kavitha
Dear Harshamanu, A friend of us brought curry powder from Mangalore for us and it was really very nice. I don't think it has any garam masala ingredients in that but it smells really nice and when added to dishes tastes heavenly. He said even in Mangalore it is available in only a few shops. Do you happen to have the recipe for this. If so please post it here. Thank you.
