Field Beans knows as " mochai" in Tamil is available in two form dry and fresh.To say the truth I never ever had mochai in my life time.Whenever I go for vegetable shopping I have seen the vendor selling the fresh variety of it but never dare to buy it and try once. But when I hear dialogues in Tamil films conserving about " mochai kottai kuzhmabu", I immediately get tempted and my mouth salivate.To check for the taste of it I bought a pack of this dried beans long back in November last year but didn't try any as blogging was bit dragging from my side during that time.At last two week before i tried this curry and tasted for the first time and it was like normal kuzhambu/ gravy with the cooked beans in it.The curry it was so filling with rice and you don't need any side dish for it. I have some left over from the soaked beans and thinking of doing sundal with it.

Almost the same ingredients I have used here expect that I have used the gas stove for grilling it instead of an oven. Mys kids are very fond of these tikkas whether it's a chicken tikka or this paneer tikka they always fight for it.

Amla Dip | Neelikkai Thogayal | Gooseberry-coconut chutney
I'm not a big fan of this amla but would never betray if offered one.I hardly buy this and make any recipe.But last month I bought a small quantity of it to try thayir pachadi with it and totally forgot as last month situation at home was not good one after another got sick and I was deeply depressed by it.At one stage I thought to quit blogging and then realised its the only place to interact with friends and get motived by the comments.It was at this time priya posted a thogayal with amla and I thought it would be the best way to use my untouched amla sitting calmly in the refrigerator.

Flaxseed Chutney Powder | Flaxseeds Idli Milagai podi | Flaxseed gun powder
We all know the health benefits of flaxseeds and I need not repeat it .It is one of the highest content of omege3 fatty acids after the fish.For vegetarian people, this seed comes as a boom.But too much of this nut give somewhat an unpleasant taste which will lead us to stop using this seed.So when using in any recipe be careful to use it in limit and remember that this seed shouldn't dominate other ingredients.
