Today we begin the second week our month long blogging marathon. Theme for the next 7 days is going to be traditional dishes. I rarely make traditional dishes myself because I’m not comfortable making them. My mom makes excellent traditional dishes and it’s sad that I have never watched her making them so I can learn to make them myself.
My mom made us quite a few traditional dishes during her recent visit and lucky for me I clicked pictures of some of them, hoping to post them. They have been sitting in the drafts till now and what better time than now to post my mom’s traditional dishes.
For the first day, I have these crispy and crunchy deep fried savory snack made with all purpose flour (maida), rice flour and soaked chana dal. These stay fresh in an airtight container for up to 10 days.
It surely is wonderful when moms come over. Good chance to learn ..love this snack, like the addition of Chanda dal to it…looks wonderful, wish could taste it.
i loved them , recently were served at a temple by a family , i believe on completion of their son’s 10th std exams, waiting for their son’s results now ;), until then will drool on these lovely pictures
I make thattai but without the all purpose flour but addition of urad dal flour. These looks so tempting and as usual the clicks are just out of the world

They look so tempting. My mom used to steam the maida and prepare chekkalu. Since I am anti-Maida I haven’t explored that 🙂
