padu,
can u tell me using vinegar(aciticacid)for fried rice is healthy or we should use fruit vinegar
but of course it is very expensive and have doubt weather will taste good or not please help me
Vinegar is not that healthy.I use only white vinegar for fried rice. We will be adding very less for fried rice. If you do not like it you can omit it.
hi padhu.. Today i prepared a potato spinach.. really i love it.. combination of sambar rice plus potato spinach is really gud..
I'm making this for the second time this afternoon. Just love this recipe. I definitely will try your other ones as well. Thank you!
Padhu should the potatoes be cut in half or can be full while pressure cooking? Also approximately how many whistles to pressure cook potatoes?
Cut it into half and pressure cook for 3 whistles. Some potatoes does not get cooked properly if kept full.
