Colouring your coconut Burfi

Adding a cupful of grated carrot or beetroot to the coconut while making coconut burfi will give you natural colouring and nutritional benefits.

To make Fluffy Idli’s

 While grinding the batter for idlis replace 1/5 quantity of rice with pressed rice (poha). This will make the idlis fluffier.

Variation in Cutlets 

Use crushed vermicelli to coat your cutlets for a change. The cutlets will have a nest-like appearance.

Coconut Fat

Coconut milk when kept overnight in the fridge forms a white layer on top. This layer can be used as fat instead of oil for frying mutton or chicken.

How to cook dhal 

 A pinch of turmeric powder and a teaspoon full of ghee added to dal before pressure-cooking it will give it a better flavour.
