Schezwan Veg Noodles

Schezwan Veg Noodles

This spicy Schezwan veg noodles are made with red chilly paste and tossed with fresh vegetables. The red chilly paste adds colour to the noodles and finely chopped ginger, finely chopped garlics and finely chopped celeries add flavor to the noodles. The other ingredients are regular sauces, pepper powder and finally garnished with beautiful spring onion leaves. Without spring onions and celery you can't get the authentic  flavor. The preparation work is little bit tough, but the cooking time is very quick. For this noodles I have used the Kashmiri red chilly for the red paste. I have added some chopped garlics while grinding the red paste. The best thing is after tossing the noodles serve it immediately so that you can enjoy the hot and spicy noodles.

Quick Paneer Masala - 15 minute Paneer Gravy - Easy Paneer Masala

Methi (Fenugreek) leaves Stir Fry - Venthayakeerai Poriyal

Methi (Fenugreek) leaves Poriyal - simple and healthy side dish for your lunch with 5 basic ingredients. For methi leaves poriyal, there is no need to chop the greens.

I recommend making it the same day, but if you have busy mornings just pluck the leaves and keep it in a ziploc bag.

Collection of Poriyal & Thoran - South Indian Vegetable Side Dishes for Lunch

Every day we prepare two varieties of vegetable side dishes for our lunch. Among those two varieties there must be a poriyal dish and the other one is kootu, aviyal or varuval. Varieties of poriyal  dishes are countless with our seasonal vegetables. As I said in my poriyal or thuvaram dishes, we add the ground coconut mixture prepared with coconut, small onions, garlic cloves and red chilly or green chilly. This unique coconut paste is often used in our poriyal or thuvaram dishes. Some prefer to add grated coconut or desiccated coconut powder for poriyal dishes. I actually don't like poriyal dishes made without any flavours. For me, poriyal must have a mix of flavours with perfect textures. We usually precook the vegetables in a vessel (except for keerai poriyal) and then we saute it with the tempering ingredients and finished with our coconut mixture. If you find it difficult to precook the vegetables, you can prepare as you like. But actually pre cooking the ...
