Kids Corner
There is this lovely event 'Shhh Cooking Secretly Challenge' stared by Priya of Priya's Versatile Recipes with an idea to enable fellow bloggers to come a little more closer and have fun at the same time. It works this way - members are paired and each pair mutually agrees on two secret ingredients with which they need to cook either 1 or 2 dishes. The interetsing part comes in when we post the recipe picture on our FB group and our fellow foodie friends pour in their guesses. The secrets unfold on 16,17 and 18th of the month with all of us revealing our secret ingredient with the nice recipe on our blogs. This event was fabulous and I enjoyed every bit of the guessing game. It was too hard to guess the secret ingredients and I was amazed to find really healthy and creative recipes of my friends which I could ever thought of using a particular ingredient.
As I came of know of this event quite late by when the pairing part was over, Priya akka graciously agreed to give me my two secret ingredients and helped me join in the fun. As I thought of what specially could be done using rice and turmeric powder, I remembered this 'Karama Upma' which is a favourite dish in my in-laws place. Typically a Tirunelveli speciality, it resembles Puli upma and can be done under 30mins. My mom-in-law does this quite often and had totally forgotten about this until this event came my way. It does require a little more oil than usual upma recipes to make it crispy but it tastes awesome.
