Kai Pakkuvam Check ✅

 I had been continuously unwell, then we went to our hometown, and after coming back home, I fell sick again. Today, I finally stepped into the kitchen. Since my mom wasn’t feeling well, I thought I would do something special. The initial plan was to buy idly from the shop while the rest of us had dosa. I wanted to make tomato chutney because I’m good at making it — and honestly, I’m not a great fan of coconut chutney.

The moment I stepped into the kitchen, my mom said, “I kneaded some chapati dough in the evening, maybe we can make poori.” I was like, let me prepare poori. But tomato chutney isn’t really a good combo (jodi😁) with poori. So, not through a matrimony service but through Samitha’s mind, I matched tomato egg thokku with poori. Omg, it’s a deadly combo — everyone should try it! I myself cut the onions, tomatoes, and green chilies.

If anyone wants the recipe, here it is 🤍😄:

First, depending on the number of family members, chop the vegetables mentioned above.

Then take a kadai, pour some oil, and add a spoon of mustard seeds. Add the chopped onions and sauté well using a karandi (ladle). Add enough salt and chilli powder. Once it’s slightly cooked, add the tomatoes. Cover it with a lid and let it cook.

Within 10 minutes, you’ll see a gravy-like consistency. Then break 3 eggs (for 4 members) and pour them into the gravy. Mix it and close the lid again. Within 2 minutes, the dish is ready.

Take a spoon, pinch a little, place it on your palm, and taste it — you’ll know your kai pakkuvam (magic of your hands).

Fortunately, my pakkuvam was nice today😁🤍.

Then, with my mother’s help, we made poori. Whenever I made it myself, it came out like appalam, whereas mom made it perfectly.

A good dinner 🩷😄
