Comment by Mary Moret
    Hello - I just bought "potato pipe" which looks like a tube pasta about 1/2 inch long. Also something Fry Me (Pillow Shape) Faites-friremoi which looks like 1 inch by 1/4 inch noodle with rectangular hole in it. I asked the shop keeper how to cook and she said to fry them.
Do you have any idea what I can do with these items. I really do not like to do much frying.
Thank you! Mary

    Hi Mary, I haven't tried both the potato pipe or  Fry Me (Pillow Shape) Faites-friremoi. So I'm not able to help out. I once got rice tubes which is also meant for frying. I tried frying them in the microwave with a little oil spray. It turned out pretty good.

Comment by haladikempu manava
Hi Dear,
Rava dosa was first introduced in hotels in south Karnataka.
It appears as if you are biased regarding food of Tamilnadu.
I believe that guys have directly flew to US directly from Tamil nadu!! Its just a joke!
I wish you had explored more about the dishes of Karnataka too. If not, write to me and contact me if you are in Bengaluru.
I shall take you to the good places and get some good food.
Ofcourse, not the same as you wld get in TN!

    Hi Chef
    I really like indian 2 minute noodles. But I know that whole grain spaghetti pasta is more healthy. I would always wonder if one could impart noodles flavor in spaghetti. can you try something like that ? A recipe for that would be awesome.
 
Reply :-
    I haven't tried to get the exact noodles flavour in Spaghetti. Most instant noodles contains ajinomoto. Since I am allergic to MSG, i don't use it in cooking. You can try the different pasta recipes with spaghetti though.

Comment by Azra K

Roast 2-3 tblsp of coconut, 3-4 small onions, 2-3 cloves of garlic, small piece os tamarind,1 spring curry leaves and 4-5 dry red chillies in some oil. Grind all the roasted ingredients along with the fried fish to a smooth paste. Enjoy the chutney.

just recently introduced to these spices and
would like to know how to use them in my dishes of

how to introduce them to my traditional cook-
ing. She also gave me a jar of LAZIZA garlic and
and ginger paste. HELP, PLEASE. i DO NOT WANT TO WASTE
TO WASTE THESE SPIOES.

Reply :-
    Hi Carter, You can use the masala powders for almost any vegetable or non veg recipes. Each masala packet is a blend of different spices. You can saute some vegetables/non veg and add little bit of the masala powder to it. Start by adding 1/2 tsp and then increase as per your taste.
Ginger garlic paste is used in most of the indian dishes. Just browse through the website and pick up recipes that attract you. In almost any of the recipes you can use the ginger garlic paste and the masala powders.

Comment by Deepa Fernandez
    Hi Dhalia
I love your recipe site. I tried couple of dishes (Biriyani items) and loved it all.
I just got a slow cooker and made Sambar with a recipe I found from the internet.It turned out to be too good, so I feel like I want to do all my cooking in that.
Do you have any recipes using Slow Cooker (Crock Pot) ?
thanks
Deepa
 
Reply :-
    Thanks Deepa for trying the Biriyani recipes. I do not have a slow cooker and hence havent tried any slow cooker recipes. I've heard that its good for most of the dal recipes, channa masala, sambhar and even for all the time consuming desserts like pal khova etc. I'll surely try to get some slow cooker recipes from my friends.

Comment by lakshmi Subramanian
    Hello,
I like your webpage very much. I am going to a potluck filled with Western dishes, Yes pasta would be a natural choice, but I want to make something delicious & from the East. Can you suggest something that the kids will like & it will hold its taste &texture for a long time. Many desserts, so I chose to have something spicy. The cutlets look appetizing, will it remain crispy for a while.I appreciate your efforts. This kind of wesite must take a lot of time and effort. Thanks for creating it.
Thanks again,
Have a nice day,
lakshmi.S.
 
Reply :-
    Hi Lakshmi, Thanks for visiting the site and all your appreciation.
    My choice of pasta for a potluck would be https://simpleindianrecipes.com/TriColouredPasta.aspx . It is simple to make for a crowd, is colourful, has few spices and the pasta retains its taste and shape.  
    About the cutlets, after making the cutlets put it into a warm oven (150 F) uncovered till the time you serve to retain the crispiness. If you have to take it to some other place, you can put it in a 400 F oven for 5-10 minutes just before serving and the cutlets will get crispy.  

Comment by Manju Paul
    Noticed few mistakes in spelling/the way English alphabets are used for malayalam words. Eg:-Malayalam for drumstick leaves is 'Muringa ila'. *Muringakaya ela* is not correct in Malayalam.
Instead of *Putiyina* for Mint, it should be 'Puthina'.
Basic pronounciation for the meaning of leaf is 'ila' and not ela.
meanwhile, I noticed few Malayalam words missing/ incorrect spelling for vegetables. I can contribute my knowledge in malayalam as it is my mother-tongue.
I look forward to your response.

Comment by Mike Harris
    I have tried and enjoyed several of your recipes.
Several years ago I worked with a number of contractors from India and, quite often, we would go to lunch together. There was a dish that was served in one of the restaurants that I very much enjoyed but, have not been able to figure out the name for it. It was served cold and consisted of a small, round cake that I think was mostly steamed channa and was floating in a white, yogurt sauce.
Can you help with this?
Thanks,
Mike

    You could substitute soya beans in the following recipe https://simpleindianrecipes.com/dalmakhani.aspx or in this https://simpleindianrecipes.com/rajma.aspx . Coconut is not very healthy very cooked because of its saturated fat content.

For years I've been cooking and searching for and trying various receipes. It was only by chance just a few days ago I happened to see your site address and the receipes in it actually mean the same as your website address. What I meant is that from just trying out a few of your receipes I can tell that they are simple and yet so delicious. It is a big relief for me when I see simple yet delicious receipes. Thank you so much and I hope you will continue to keep up the good work and show people how you can make delicious food the simple way !!!

    Stumbled across your website. Recently began enjoying Indan food at some dinners out. Like to cook and have a couple quick questions.
1. Where is the best place to get some of the ingredients? E.G my local grocery store doesn't have things like ginger garlic paste.
2. How do I know what dish will go with what? For example, we both like Butter Chicken, but not sure what other dishes go with it...? Do you have meal suggestions?
Thanks and my compliments on your website.

Reply :-
    Hi Todd,
    Good to hear from you and thanks for the compliments. Here are the answers to your questions...
1. You can get almost all the ingredients in any indian grocery stores. You could also make ginger garlic paste at home by blending togethre equal amount of ginger and garlic  cloves.
2. About 'meal suggestion'..... You have given me a good idea. I'll include that in the  website soon. Naan bread goes very well with butter chicken.

    Hi Dahlia Tips for you: When i prepared chicken curry,I don't use grated coconut or coconut milk which most of us do. As my husband is a health-consious person, i substitute it with almond and cashew nut paste. It tastes great too.

    Thanks a lot for your valuable tips. Of late even i've started using almond paste for chicken curry. One of my friend said  that cashews have high saturated fat. Almond is more heart healthy.

WOW...   
    Hi Dahlia, Thanks for taking the time to put a great website together. I am very impressed with the fact that you seem to have handpicked each recipe and taken the time to illustrate it. For busy working mums like us this is indeed great. Keep up the good work!! Nandini Denver, CO.

    Dahlia, I found your site through the Guestbook of another...thank goodness! I was trying to learn more about Indian Cuisine and spices, as well as how it all ties together culturally. What wonderful work you've done here...thank you for sharing! I especially like what you had to say in "About Me". :)

    It is really amazing to see your hardwork….It is very tempting to read the recipes and look at your pictures.Is there a place where we can post our recipes?

    Thanks. As of now there is no provision for visitors to add a recipe directly. But you can always send a recipe by mail to recipes @ simpleindianrecipes.com and i promise to add it immediately under your name.
