I like them in sambar and in chutney but its not always available here, only rarely can I get them! :(

Don't you know to make Sambar???
It's very easy. Check my recipe. If you don't get shallots, replace it with shallots.
This is how my sambaar looks :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Actually, in restaurants they use onions as it's more easy.
For chutney also, just grind coconut, salt and green chillies together. It makes a nice chutney

Just pop some mustard seeds and curry leaves to it.....(if only needed). If coconut oil used, more good, also palm oil. Never use mustard oil :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Entammmooooooooo!! :angry: :angry: :angry: I am talking about rarity of shallots not chutney or sambar!! I prepare these things at least once in a week and both my sambar and chutney are really famous among my friends!! You will also lick your fingers once you taste it!!! :evil: :) :)



I have actually 5 or 6 different recipes for making coconut chutney!! I am considered an expert in them!! :)

What to do, just replace shallots with onion :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Actually, it will stay fresh for about 1 month or so. So, if you get it at your market at least once in a month, just buy 1 kg. It will be enough.
I think it will be available in super markets like Big Bazaar. We get many North Indian items like palak and Chineese items like leeks in such places only.
I want your special chutney recipes. Actually, each person's chutneys differ from each other.
I want to know which oil you use for it.

Sorry!! it is not as you are expecting... it is more than that....
I have bigger responsibility in Kitchen Affairs... Tasting the food...eating what and whatever she cooks....
As she loves making different and new dishes ...NEW EXPERIMENTS..... and I usually use word LAB not KITCHEN!!! .. :silly: :silly: :S :lol:

I thought it is small onion. Today only i came to know that it is shallots.Me too frequently using it.

I have never used Shallots... When I saw title of this thread, I was wondering what it is?? :) :)

That's because you probably never help in the kitchen so you don't know this!! Try helping your wifey and you will get more knowledge!!! :evil: :laugh: :laugh:

Kitchen looks like foreign...so entering in kitchen is just like a foreign tour for me.... :laugh: :laugh: :dry: :sick: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

So that means if you enter a kitchen your vacation starts and learning new things during a vacation is very very good for you! Start immediately and take a vacation tomorrow itself!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Sorry !! It is Vocation, not Vacation!!!! :whistle: :woohoo: :woohoo:

He he he! Don't twist the words, I must find a way to tell your wife, she definitely must have means to find your true vocation!! :evil: :evil:

Your conversion reminded me of a joke

On an anniversary the wife tells the husband to take her to a place she has never been

and he takes her.....to the kitchen

hahahahahah :)
