Mornings of South Indians normally start with idli or dosa or steamcake. i.e. Breakfast normally include rice, rich and abundant content of carbohydrates that give you energy the whole day. Lunch also, normally rice food. Before my marriage, I used rice food at supper too. Now, almost all South Indians have made their supper 'wheat' food for health reasons which is really nice.
Rice food is not good for sugar patients. Also, it can lead to put on weight too. Yet, everyone has to admit, it's nutritious too, giving us energy a lot.
How much/often do you include rice food in your diet? :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:

I eat rice in lunch along with chapatis(wheat) :blink: and its because in canteen they don't make good chapatis and i don't like to carry lunch from home so i could eat less chapatis i have to compensate with rice. :evil: Otherwise i used to eat rice once in a week. :blink:
So, you eat chappathis 3 times a day? :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink:
Rice meal is a nice food....do try often........
What about idli and dosa??
When I was in South India, I used to take rice daily.
After shifting to Central India, I stopped to take rice in my food. I just have once or twice in a week just for showing respect to Mr. Rice. :woohoo: :woohoo:
So, you might be ultra slim now, since you avoid rice most :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

It may be because she choose wrong rice for making idli and dosa. :whistle: :whistle:
Use any type of unboiled rice, soak it and use it.
While grinding it, add a little well-cooked rice and methi powder.
I eat rice daily in lunch and chapatti at night.Actually we are Bangali na@@@
That's why I told several times before....Malayalis and Bengalis have several things in common......even Salil Chawdary and Shreya goswal :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
And aniyathi and ram :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Add to that Marathis as well. We have rice at both meals, lunch and dinner. Our lunch and dinner is a fully balanced meal containing all components of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, etc. etc. So every meal contains, rice, dal, chapatis, leafy veggies, salad and chutneys!! The way each is prepared changes with every meal!!!
Also, Shreya Ghoshal....not sure about Salil Chaudhary, will have to find out if he has composed for Marathi movies!!!

I use parboiled rice with which I soak a few methi seeds, and this way my idlis turn out really well and puffy! For dosa, I grind a handful of rice flakes with the soaked rice and urad dal.

Till now, Chemmeen is considered as the best film of Malayalam and obviously, it's songs are the best....particularly, the heart breaking song sung by Manna dey....
So, you have rice meals for dinner also :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :whistle: :whistle:
If so, when will you eat chappathi? :whistle:

You can add a handful of well boiled rice while grinding flour of dosa, appam or idli. It make each of them more soft.
I agree with @gulshan...
Climatic condition should also be considered..
We cannt simply take chapathi's day and night in hot climate..
@Sanjeev I think now-a-days ready made idly and dosa mix are available in market.. I think its easy to prepare in that way.. rather then following the tradition methods... :)
