It's a heirloom recipe and my Amma's favorite dish. She loves to eat this Kara Keerai Adai anytime. This recipe is a combination of Rice,Tur dal and Bengal gram added to dried chillies,pepper corns, asafoetida and salt to taste. This is the basic ingredients in which any greens, onions is added to the batter and shredded coconut is topped while making Adai. The authentic way of flattening a ball of batter with fingers on tawa adds special taste to the recipe. My Amma loves to eat this Adai as it is . It can be also served with jaggery,tomato chutney or coconut chutney.

Cabbage Adai Recipe Cabbage Adai Recipe
#goldenapronAdai is a famous breakfast dish in South India, this can be prepared instantly and does not need any fermentation time. It is cooked just like dosas, but it's much richer in proteins.It is generally made plain but I make it by adding grated vegetables to make it more tasteful and add more nutritive.You can also add grated carrot, chopped moringa leaves and also grated pumpkins instead of cabbage. Adding boiled mashed potatoes and coriander leaves gives a very different taste. Do try it and let me know here.

Amma ka Daal (Mom's Lentil Recipe) Amma ka Daal (Mom's Lentil Recipe)
My ultimate comfort food is cumin rice (Jeera Chawal) with this dal. This is my mom's recipe, so truly meri maa ki dal. It's a very simple recipe with very basic ingredients. The best part of this dish is that the spice mix can be made in bulk and frozen for use later. I don’t encourage it but as our days get busy this may be a great time saver.There is an interesting story behind this humble staple dish on our table. For many years, we could never get my mom’s taste in our dal. During one of my mom’s cooking sessions, my wife and I shadowed her like understudys, noting every detail of her cooking to the minutest details. Our dal would never get her taste. Then we realized that one of the key ingredients that gave this dish a unique velvety satisfying flavor is ‘smoked ghee tadka laced with cumin”. Be kind and don’t skimp on this step if you really want to get the flavor right.
