"It's a LAKSHADWEEPIAN FOOD!!!!"

     There is a story behind this title and it has some connection with my cooking. I used to cook something for the evening tea. That particular day was special to me because it was my first wedding aniversary day. So I planned to make a cake on that day. I'm not at all well in cooking, eventhough I usually get good results from its taster. I usually made some mistakes while cooking and that particular mistakes help me to find some other dishes.
       Here also, my planning was to make an egg cake, but my final result was another one. I couldn't use pressure cooker for some reasons and my ideas leads me to that dish. With the same available ingrediants I completed my new dish successfully. I hadn't given a name for it till it reaches dining table. For my new dish I used,
  Egg            - 4 nos
Milk             - 1/2 cup
Sugar          - 3 teaspoon
Cardamom - 2 nos
Cashewnut- 6 nos
        I beat four eggs for ten minutes. Then added milk, sugar and cardamon into it and again beat it for another ten minutes. I poured the mixture into each column of 'iddli cooker' after applying some ghee in it. Then cooked it for 15 minutes. Atlast, my new dish became ready within 35 minutes and I served it with cashew topping.
        The dish got a quick fame in my family and everyone of the family enquired about its name. So I gave them a quick reply that "its a lakshadweepian dish and its name is LAKSHADWEEPIAN EGG IDDLI!!!!!!!"

The Journey of a THOUSAND mile Begins with a SINGLE step

THE ART OF COOKING

If somebody ask me what's my favourite art, I can't give them a proper reply, because I used to find some beauty in every art. I've some taste in every art, even though they didn't conjunct with me. I've some taste in drawing, in photography and music, but I didn't get any coaching for all these. So I'm not at all confident in all these areas.
            I started to cook food after my marriage. I was feared to present my first prepared food before my family. I prepared 'kheer' for them, because there was a belief that, if we prepare sweet as our first dish to our husbant's family, then our future life with them will be sweeter. Also first dish will decide our future. For my wondor, my dish gave me better result. So my confident level increased with my interest. Without any coaching I found out the inner taste inside me. Then I tried to improve my taste in different 'Tastes'.
              At first I used to prepare common foods. Later, I made 'researches' in the art of cooking. I prepare varieties and named it, and I got good results for all these. 'Kappa payasam', 'Lakshadweepian egg iddli', 'Biscut cake', 'tamarind juice', 'chickoo pudding', 'banana with grind coconut cake', ' potato vada', 'Avil Laddoo' are some of them.
               Later, I added some additional flavours to food and made it more delicious. Now, I'm busy in my research to prepare 'healthy foods'. I used to allow others to taste my dishes and comment on it, because I'm confident in my cooking.
For me,
        " Kitchen is my Laboratory,
          Utensils are my test tubes,
          Vegitables & fruits are my
           raw materials,
          Food is my invention,
          And I'm the inventor."
