Galka nu shak / Indian zucchini curry - Silk Gourd Curry - Guest post for Gloria

On Monday, Gloria was guest at my space , today I am at her. Just love the feelings to share the space.

Did you guys check this Marzipan recipe at Pepper, Chilli and Vanilla , run by Gloria Fernandes? If not check it out , she made it so nicely and easy. Gosh I love to do that one day. She has awesome recipes both veg and non veg and her desserts are mind blowing. We both had our blog anniversary in July so I asked her for guest post and she asked me too. So we both did  guest post  for each other. Read more about my today's dish at her space.

I just love all the vegetables so now and then I make this dishes to go with rotis or rice but when my parents were visiting and we had chance, we went down to memory lane and make this shak with khichdi. We used to had this back home every summer for diner. That time we didn't have leftover tradition so what ever mom makes, we finished up everything and if we have little bit left, we used to eat it in kadai only, means in which mom made shak (curry) we add khichdi in it and eat it. It is saying if you eat this way, in your marriage , rain will come for sure. This happend to my sister's wedding. We had so bad rain that day that pots in which cooks have to make food, was floating but we managed to did everything  and wedding was done nicely and now from last 20 + years she is settled in Canada and happily married. so coming back to this dish, lets start cooking.

Check out my today's recipe Galka nu shak here.

Thanks Gloria for the honor to share you space. Bless you Girl.

Today I am sharing my recipe with one of the very good friend I can say, Pooja from dailyswadsugandh. In six months of her blogging span she become very popular with her amazing twist in daily cooking dishes and healthy smoothies and even a giveaway. We talked thru social network and discussed kids, life and of course about blogging. so when she asked me to do guest post at her space I was happy to do that because I am a big fan of her dishes, it is simple yet healthy and you don't need any fancy ingredients or gadgets. That's the big point for me. One day I will try her Sago Pizza, Quick Milk Peda,  and of course Spicy garlic chutney.

My First Guest post - Eggplant Gravy(Chet​tinad Kosumalli)

I know in past when I was newbie to this blog world and you all supported me so much that I am what I am today. So when ever some one new talked to me about what to do to connect with others I always talked with them and from my experienced I gave them advised too. Few days back I met one new blogger who asked for my help for a guest post and I said yes to her and here is her post. Her name is Sathya Priya, her blog is mykitchenodyssey. Guys please visit her blog and give her all support. Thank you so much in advance. now over to Sathya.

I had mentioned earlier that Egg Plant (Brinjal) and Raw Banana are two staple vegetables in Chettinad cuisine. In chettinad households you  will find these vegetables being used very creatively in many dishes.   Kosumalli (கோசுமல்லி ) recipe is one among them.

A lot of people (myself included) do not like egg plant but trust me, you will love kosumalli. Kosumalli is made with Egg plant, Green Chili and Tamarind extract. The flavor of the tamarind accentuates the egg plant flavor and makes the dish delicious. The dish gets its spiciness just from the green chili.We usually eat this along with Idly , Dosa or Upma. 

Ingredients:

• 8 Baby Indian Egg plants (பிஞ்சு கத்தரிக்காய் ).
• 4 green Chilies.
• 1 medium size Onion.
• 1 small Tomato.
• Goosberry size Tamarind / 1/2 tsp tamarind paste. 

To Temper:

• 1/2 tbsp Mustard seeds.
• 1/2 tbsp Cumin seeds.

Method:

• Use Baby Indian Egg Plants usually deep purple in color.
• Cook the Egg plants stem removed till they turn mushy.
• I usually cook them in a pressure cooker.
• Cool them, remove the outer skin and mash them.
• Add Tamarind paste or pulp and mix well.
• You can buy tamarind paste in Indian grocery stores.
• 
• Chop the onion and tomato into small pieces.
• In a sauce pan heat the oil and temper it with mustard and cumin seeds.
• Add the Onions until saute them till they are translucent.
• Add tomatoes and cook them till they release their juices and turn soft.
• Now add the Mashed egg plant mixture.
• Add required amount of salt.
• In a low heat let the Kosumalli come to a boil.
• Once it boils let it simmer for 2 more minutes. This will allow the gravy to thciken.
• Garnish with fresh Cilantro/Coriander leaves.

Enjoy guys this amazing Eggplant Gravy.
