नवरात्रि का आठवां दिन: माँ महागौरी का महत्व नवरात्रि के आठवें दिन माँ महागौरी की पूजा की जाती है। माँ महागौरी को शांति, पवित्रता, और करुणा का प्रतीक माना जाता है। उनका यह स्वरूप अत्यंत सौम्य और शांत है, और वे भक्तों को सुख, शांति, और सभी प्रकार के पापों से मुक्ति प्रदान करती हैं। माँ महागौरी का वर्ण अत्यंत उज्ज्वल और गोरा है, इसलिए उन्हें ‘महागौरी’ कहा जाता है। माँ महागौरी का स्वरूप: माँ…

My gallery is filled with shutter pics. I have 20+ pics of the same thing I photographed. 🥴. Now I need to use my ghostly 👻 attire and delete them all.....

My most male trait is the "ye I can do that" attitude abt stuff I have no means of actually knowing whether I can do

[femenaces]

My small life has been infinitely enriched by meeting and getting to know immigrants from different cultures that I've been lucky enough to have as friends and acquaintances. Maybe it's just my melting pot US american attitude but I will never understand the violent resistance people have to the idea of people from different cultures joining their society. No, you are not going to be ""replaced""-- your world will be expanded.

I made two pairs of Pavitr Prabhakar inspired converse on the converse website and I can’t decide which pair I like more to get.

These ones have a lot of gold and personally I prefer them a bit more. I feel like they scream Pavitr.

But then again I love these ones as well I feel like they have a bit more blue in them with more subtle gold in it. They also scream Pavitr.

Paruppu Idli

Vanakkam, tombler!

Today we’re trying a variant of idli -- a savory rice cake originating from South India, called paruppu idli. Idli cakes are made by steaming a batter consisting of fermented black lentils and rice, and paruppu idli in specific uses paruppu (moong dal). To my understanding, dal is lentil, but I came upon this article from Bon Appétit and now I’m more even more confused. Before we begin, this recipe is made by @robinksimblr (click here to download the cc).

I love the juxtaposition of Vienna chopping up tomatoes on the kitchen counter and her family doing their own thing on the dining table.

As I stated earlier, I wasn't completely sure if the paruppu meant in this recipe is the ingredient for the idli (rice cake), or is it the ingredient for the sambar (dip)? As I explored different recipes on Google search, I decided that depending on the cooking steps Vienna did, paruppu in this recipe in particular is the ingredient for the sambar.

Finely chop tomato, onion, and green chillies. On the side (not shown), roast moong dal until golden brown and add it into the pressure cooker alongside oil, turmeric powder, curry leaves, garlic, and enough water. Pressure cook for 10 minutes.

On another pan, toast the mustard seed and cumin seed until it crackles, then add onion and green chilies. Continue sautéing until the onion turns translucent. Lastly, add tomato and sauté until it turns mushy. Add this mixture to the cooked dal (as in, the dip and not the ingredient).

Adjust the consistency of the sambar by adding enough water and salt to taste. Continue boiling for a little bit until the tamarind is well-cooked.

Plating the paruppu sambar alongside the fluffy, soft idlis.

Vienna’s number one super taster is her son Frejr. He won the spicy curry challenge on The Spice Festival last year, so the various spicy dishes Vienna cooked so far had been a breeze for him.

It’s another successful day for Vienna’s cuisine adventure. See you on the next post, dag dag!

P.S. Recipe for paruppu sambar is taken from this article, while deeper understanding for paruppu and idli are taken from this article, this article, this article, and this article.
