Method:
Dry roast all nuts and sesame seeds separately.
At high heat add oil in at bottom kadai or non stick pan.
Add chilli paste (if using), add garlic (if using).
Add all vegetables and Tofu or Paneer and saut.
Do not cover the Kauai, make sure to see it that the vegetable does not becomes
soggy or over cooked.
After 5 minutes, add salt, pepper and other sauces to your taste.
Take it away from the stove, add the nuts and sesame seeds and let it cool.
This can be prepared and stored in fridge or freezer.
If you have a Panini maker, stuff this into your bread and add cheese and make it
as sandwich otherwise in a dosa pan or Tava, add oil or ghee and toast two bread
slices.
Add the stufng to the bread along with the desired amount of cheese and toast it
again on the tava by placing a heavy bottom pan on top the sandwiched bread.
In 1 minute, the cheese might have melted. Take the sandwich, cut it into two
pieces and serve with ketch up or sauce.
a
m
n
e
You can also substitute meat. I prepared the stufng last night and made the
sandwich today for the entire family and brought it for my lunch to work. It tastes
good. Hope you all enjoy!!!!!!!
Make sure to use the dish that will hold all your vegetables and tofu to stir nicely
without breaking them to pieces while frying. Do not over crowd the veggies in the
dish. This will taste like kootu instead of grilled.

You can also prepare channa rice with the same method by replacing soya with
channa. Soak 1/2 cup channa for 5-6 hrs. Add salt and pressure cook it.
Now add this instead of soya in the same recipe.
Before adding this, smash 1/4th of the cooked channa. (Instead of adding it
as whole grain, doing so will give extra taste).

chicken pieces and toss thoroughly.

a
m
Method
Place chicken breast in a vessel add all the dry
ingredients and add the soy sauce, vinegar and
water.
Water just to cover chicken and cook until it is well
done & let it cool.
Then shred the chicken into small bite sized pieces.
The cooked liquid is the chicken stock which can be
used to prepare soups. If want to use stock, you also
need to add handful of chopped leeks and carrots too.
In a wok or kadai add the oil and heat it until smoking.
Now add the garlic saut.
Add the white portion of spring onion and saut.
Add green peas and mushroom and saut.
Add salt, aked red chillies, turmeric powder, curry
powder and saut.
Add the prawns at this stage and cook until prawns is
3/4 done.
Now add the cabbage, carrot, bean sprouts and
capsicum and saut.
Now add the soy sauce.
Cook in such a way the veggies retain their
crunchiness.
Add the cooked shredded chicken.
Finally add the cooked rice and mix it well.
Garnish with the green portions of spring onions.
m
o
Optional
Add chopped egg omelets to the above.
Add it when adding the cooked chicken.
Also not necessary that you need all
ingredients.
You can keep it veggie omitting the
chicken, prawn and egg. But to get
avour as in any Chinese cooking the
garlic, spring onion, capsicum must.
It tastes even better if prepared with thin
rice noodles instead of rice.
Sounds tedious but once chicken and
vegetables are prepared, it is a matter of
stir frying.
Serve with chicken 65 or Manchurian or
chilly oil.

Method:
Toor dhal & red chillies have to be grinded coarsely.
Steam the ground toor dhal and ake it.
In kadai add oil and season with mustard, urad dhal, hing, red chillies and
curry leaves.
Then add chopped beans, salt and turmeric powder.
Sprinkle water and cook till beans is half done.
Add the steamed toor dhal.
Saut and cook until the beans is done.
Once you add the toor dhal it will burn / catch to kadai easily, so cook in a low
ame and if need, add a little more oil.
Better use a nonstick pan.
Serve with more kulambu.
Note:
Paruppu usuli can be prepared plain with no added veg or with cabbage,
ladies nger, cluster beans (kothavarangai) and banana ower (vazhai poo)
too.
The above method uses comparatively less oil. Particularly if using non stick
reduce amount of oil added.
If preparing for guests instead of steaming the ground toor dhal you can cook
it directly in a low ame. Takes more time and will need to use more oil.
For day to day cooking and if using just beans or kothavarangai, I microwave
the veg to steam it, makes it easier.
