Dear %Name,

For most people South Indian cooking is limited to the dosa and the idli with a few variations. There is however more to south Indian cooking than that. South Indian cuisine encompasses not just crisp dosas and spongy idlis but also stews, chutneys and mouth watering sweets to suit every taste. And if you are a South Indian food enthusiast you must pick up a copy of my book ‘Idlis and Dosas’, which is a brilliant collection of south Indian favorites.

Here are some of my favorite recipes from down South.

Regards,





Kolumbu
South Indian preparation of dal cooked with an array of vegetables.

Cabbage Poriyal
Cabbage tempered with mustard seeds and dry red chilies makes a delightful accompaniment to any South Indian main course.

Dal and Vegetable Idli
These nutritious idlis are slightly heavier than the regular idlis.
