Prawn Biryani and sides!!
Today is special.. it is a working day, but not actually a busy day because most colleagues are on leave on account of Diwali which was yesterday. It feels like a long weekend for me and I cooked hot lunch today with all my favorites.

Kuzhipaniyaram These little nuggets of rice lentil

Kuzhipaniyaram
These little nuggets of rice lentils batter that is leftover after making dosai/idli batter is a favorite. From it's crispy outside and spongy soft insides, eating these bite sized traditional South Indian dish is pure joy. Served with chutneys of choice, I like the coconut garlic Chutney the most always, these are perfect as snack or breakfast.
You can just about add any vegetables to the batter, making them delicious with each addition. Common addition is carrot and onion in my kitchen woth chopped coriander leaves. Delish!!

Karamani Kuzhambu or black eyed peas Curry is one

Karamani Kuzhambu or black eyed peas Curry is one of our favourite comfort foods.
Keeping it simple with spicy Onion rings and fryums and hot rice for a Saturday Lunch. I wouldn't have made this lunch on summer usually, but Chennai is cooler than usual today. So why not.. it is just a joy to dig in to this plate of food.
