Thanks for the picture & Welcome back Kavi! (Glad to see your PM and I replied to you just today!)

I was missing in action here over the last 3 days as Junior Supree wasn's doing well! 😭 She came home with fever on Friday evening and is doing OK today and returned to School!

I took the picture of mini Idli plate (for Sue Akka) and couldn't come to IF to post it and when I finally came here, saw the picture by Kavi here.... 👏 👏 (always she is in full swing!!! 😉) Thanks again Kavi!

Yes SueAkka, these Mini idlis dish (called '14 Idlis' ) is a famous item , kind of their Signature dish at Saravana Bhavan!! We love this, infact idlis a lot and I do make Idli/ Dosa very often for dinner! 😃 My kids especially enjoy these cuties for their shape in addition to the taste! 😉

I believe Rojakka had mentioned about the place, where you can enjoy this! 😉 Please try it the next time you get a chance and I'm sure you will like them! 😊

And.. Thanks for clarifying the chinna vengayam question. So what brand has the frozen chinna vengayam? I'm almost sure I haven't seen it before in the store's freezer, but surely will ask around, the next time.

Jenim, Thank you so much for your sweet words & lovely compliments! I sure will pass on your compliments to my daughter... 😃 You made my day Jenim!! ☺️ 😊 Thanks again!

You are welcome and yes, the frozen chinna vengayam is by 'Daily Delights'. But like I said, if you are looking for that crunchy cum karam taste..(like the fresh ones!).... you may not get in this frozen types, but the flavor is definitely there... Give it a try when you get a chance! 😊

Thanks Supree, sorry that I posted the idli mould.
How is your daughter now?
I dread children getting sick.
My Aishu too has lost of weight.
Thanks Supree.

Oh ..no. Why sorry Kavi?! I'm happy that SueAkka didn't have to wait and she saw the picture earlier! And thanks to you for that. 😊

Yes, my daughter is doing OK today and gone to School. Thanks. What made me worry a lot is, 2 weeks back only she got Flu and she had gone down a lot after suffering for nearly a week, and again she became sick now!! 😭 Today she is ok, but still has got a heavy cough/ chest congestion though.

Hope your little one, Aishu is getting better now. Take care. 🤗

This sweet mango pickle is a Gujarati dish.
A bit time consuming, but the end result is sweet.

CHUNDA

Ingredients:
250 grms of peeled and grated raw mango
500 grms of sugar
2 tbs salt
1 tsp tumeric powder
2 tbs chillie powder
1 tbs ground cumin seeds

Method:
Mix the grated mango, salt and tumeric powder and
Leave it for half an hour.
Now take a muslin cloth put the grated mango
And squeeze gently.
Now put the plup in a glass container, add the sugar
And mix well.
Tie a piece of muslin cloth over the mouth of the vessel
And place in the sun for a full 21 days.
That means it goes out every morning (after a stir) and
Comes in every evening.
You will know the pickle is done when the sugar has melted
To a syrup and reaches 1.5 string consistency.
When done add the chillie powder and cumin powder.
This pickle will resemble like orange marmalade.
If well sunned this pickle will keep for a year without refrigeration.
It goes well with chapatti , rice or as a sandwich spread.

Yes, as Roja mentioned I will certainly try this cute iddlis at Saravana Bhavan here sometime soon. Btw why do they call it "14 iddlis"?? I see there are 15 tiny moulds in the above iddli tray - do they serve 14 tiny ones at one go per customer...aiyooo can't finish all!! 😉

Glad to know that junior Supree is doing fine now and back to school too.👏
