Hallo welcome.

First post! What I'll be posting here (or at least starting with) are tried and tested super recipes. Most of which have been handed down the tree, and very few of which have been properly replicated by mere mortals.

I won't necessarily claim to be a connoisseur of food, but I do enjoy food and think I know my awesome foods (see me and then say you don't believe me :)). Posts will probably contain everything from recipes for base masalas to full dishes.

I'm south Indian, Hyderabadi and an eggetarian, so expect a healthy dose of podis (spicy powdered mixes that go well with rice, idli's and probably just about everything), pachhadis (chutneys) et al. at first - those are the ones that remain hidden secrets in the hands of the capable grannies.

The goal of starting this was to spread the delicious wealth around a bit and set up what should hopefully be a good reference for some of us cookingly challenged people :). So here we go.

I promised to start with a podi, so podi lovers, watch this next one...
