  • No Onion Garlic Thali

    No Onion Garlic Thali

    A no onion garlic thali which you can easily prepare at home.

    Some days call for a simple, no onion garlic meals. I usually add onion regularly except for a few days as Ekadasi, festive days and my mood.


    Here is one such thali. The lunch menu consists of red coconut chutney, two kinds of stir fry, a green dal, rasam, papad, chapathi and steamed rice. Along with it I have served pickle and fryums. Here is the other thali which I shared earlier. 

    All the recipes are easy to prepare. Here is a short method of the cooking. Soak the dal and tamarind,  cut the vegetables  and prepare the dough. Soon, you can put the lentil in the pressure cooker along with potatoes. Make the seasoning for the tomato chutney and the rasam. In the meantime, wash the green leaf thoroughly and get ready with the seasoning. Once the pressure is released, cook the dal and make alu methi sabzi. The chapathis are made in the end after the rice is cooked.
    Alu Methi – It makes a good accompaniment with chapathi.
    Tomato chutney : A simple, flavoursome chutney which is often made at home.
    Red coconut chutney – Abundant of coconut and this chutney happened.
    Dal with green leaves – The dal can be made with any kind of green leaves as fenugreek, palak or amaranth. I often use a combination of palak and fenugreek or only hunase leaf to make dal with green leaf aka mudddipalya      

               Nimbehannina Saaru – A comfort meal by itself, it needs the simplest of ingredients.

  • South Indian Thali

    South Indian Thali

    Presenting a South Indian thali for the first time on the blog.

    It’s been sometime I posted anything on the blog, I have been busy in getting my blog updated, at last, it is almost undone and I am so happy with the new look.

    A thali is a platter full of all the dishes prepared.It is a complete meal. Today, I present to you a South Indian Thali, this is more prevalent in Karnataka.

    I had never thought of taking a picture of thali until the discussion started amongst we friends. Jagruti, Sapana and myself decided to put a thali picture weekly on instagram, just for fun. So, thus this picture.

    In the thali are dal with green leaf, rasam, salad, moong stir fry, curd, chapati and rice. This is the usual meal I prepare most days at home. The links to all the dishes are provided.

    Dal with green leaf is a tasty accompaniment that pairs both with rice and chapati. It is commonly called as muddipalya in kannada. The goodness of lentil and the nutrients of the green leaf makes it one of the healthy choices for a vegetarian diet, isn’t it?

    Rasam is mainly used with hot steamed rice.

    Tomato and cucumber salad is an accompaniment with chapati.

    Green moong stir fry is liked by all at home and thus make it quite regularly.

    The food of south indians is incomplete without curds rice. Mango pickle, thokku and appalams are usually found in all homes.

    What is the usual daily food in your home? Do let me know in the comments below.

    If you ever recreate this thali, do not forget to tag evergreendishes on Facebook or Instagram. I would like to see your creation.
