Like many people, I too follow Samaithu Par of Meenakshi Ammal for many of my recipes, especially for the Bakshanams and a few sweets, but, I definitely add a twist and I have shared how I made those recipes myself. A few of the recipes are tried from different books and from different websites and ofcourse there too I have added my own twist and ingredients have been altered according the taste of family.

I am always open to criticisms and if you try the recipes and find them appealing to your taste do share it and if not pls dont forget to share that too.

Thanks to all those inspiring cooks of my family which includes my paatis (grand mothers), mom, mil, my co-sisters, my friends who are great cooks and who have some specialized dish of their own.

This can be made using either sugar or Jaggery. But the best taste is obtained when it is made with Jaggery.

Ingredients:
Coconut - 1 Big
Jaggery - 3/4 cup or Sugar 3/4 cup
Cardamom - 6 nos

Method:
Grate the coconut (only the white portion should be used).In a hard bottom pan add jaggery and 1/5th cup of water. And when the jaggery dissolves in water and when it starts bubbling add the grated coconut and powdered cardamom. Lower the flame and let the coconut and jaggery mix together. Untill the consistency becomes sticky, keep stirring the mixture. When cold transfer to another container and use it to make Modhak or coconut poorna kozhukattai.

To make the same with sugar: Add 1/4 cup of water to sugar. Bring it to boil and to one string consistency. Add the grated coconut and keep stirring it continuously without leaving the laddle. Add the cardamom powder and stir untill it leaves the sides of the pan.

    About

    A foodie who love to experiment new dishes and new tastes, got into sharing that I have prepared with friends and family resulted in starting a blog. It have now become a website with about 700 odd recipes. Most of them tried and tested from various books which includes Samaithu par and also different books of Mallika Badrinath. A few from the different woman's magazines too. But I have made definite changes to a few lot of recipes to accommodate my taste and my family's taste.
