Chakka Ela Ada Recipe | Ela Ada | Elai Kozhukattai with Jackfruit & Coconut | Elai Adai

Elai Adai is one of my favorite snacks that is made in my hometown. I was planning to click Ela Ada during my last vacation to India since finding jackfruit and Banana leaf is really hard in Sydney. However, I missed it and recently, to my surprise I spotted banana leaf and jackfruit in Indian shop. I grabbed both of them immediately since I had few recipes in mind. Jackfruit can be skipped if you couldn't find it. Let us move on to the recipe:

Advanced Gokulashtami/Krishna Jeyanthi wishes to all my dear readers. Hope everyone is busy preparing the snacks for tomorrow's festival. To add on to my already existing Special recipes for Krishna Jeyanthi, I am sharing the recipe of Vella Seedai today. Last Friday I managed to try this vella seedai after sending Happy to school. Though it was not very much appealing like the Uppu seedai, it tasted so good. I reserved it for Happy's after school snack and I had a feeling that she will not try any. However, to my surprise, she started eating and liked it very much. She gulped almost half of the below-presented bowl in one go 😛 and I am very happy. Let us move on to the recipe:

Until then please go through my special Krishna Jeyanthi recipes posted last year. Let us move on to today's recipe Aloo Gobi Masala. I always make Poori Masala or Channa Masala with poori. Recently, when I saw few florets of leftover cauliflower in the fridge, I planned to make Aloo Gobi. I followed the recipe from here and it was so yummy. Do give it a try and let me know the feedback:

Yet another Paneer recipe to add in my Paneer collection. I started to explore paneer recipes just for the sake of readers and I am loving it now. Now I realized the real taste of paneer and you will be seeing more paneer recipes in the future. Today I am sharing Paneer Fried Rice, hope you had seen that when I shared Gobi 65 recipe. It goes well with Mixed Vegetable Kuruma. However, I paired it with Gobi 65 since we are not very keen about the gravy for fried rice. Check out my other paneer recipes as well.
