    I do make chutneys with idli.. but have seen many of my south Indian friends enjoying idli with podi.

    since, it can be stored for a while, I guess it comes in handy when you dont have time to make chutney..

    I love to sprinkle pods masala on hot steaming idlis. I was searching for a good pod masala recipe but most were just too complicated. I like your simple and easy recipe. Bookmarking it.

    equally educative and entertaining, and without a doubt, you've
    hit the nail on the head. The issue is something too few people are speaking intelligently about.
    Now i'm very happy I found this during my hunt for something regarding this.

Kaju Katli / Kaju Burfi

Kaju Katli also known as Kaju burfi is an Indian dessert made of Cashew nuts and sugar. Kaju Katli  has been in my to do list for a quite some time. Finally I made it for this Diwali. Diamond sweet is one of   my son's favorite sweet, yes " Diamond Sweet " that is what he calls it. The texture was't that smooth that we get in market but the taste was awesome.  Typically, Cashew nuts are soaked in water overnight then ground it into paste and added to sugar syrup to make a smooth dough. Few people make it in different way, make cashew nuts powder and add to sugar syrup. Either ways you make the taste and texture matters. I have followed the 2nd method as I didn't have much time to prepare this for a potluck party.  This recipe  goes to the final day of week 1, Blogging Marathon 81 under the theme " Diwali Savories and Sweets". Here goes the recipe...... Ingredients: Kaju / Cashew nut powder 1 1/2 cup Sugar 1 cup Water 1/2 cup Butter / Ghee 1 tbsp Edible S...
