Anna daataa SukhIbhava

A tough day at work and boring drive home...nothing can lift the spirits of an individual tired of a software problem. But somethings can change the mood...a good food. Not that my moods change with anything delicious before me, but it was the effort of Nagendra and his patience that changed me forget all the tension back in office and have a nice evening. He is a chef by nature but software engineer by profession. He has a rich taste and has a gifted hand in cooking. His permutations are scary by names but delicious by taste. Here are some of his experimented vantakams...

Su Kauphy : Mix water with nicely cut ginger and boil the mixture for sometime. 10 minutes of extensive boiling gives you a brown soup that is good for health, cold and taste.

Akki Roti: Riceflour, chopped onions, green chillies and salt in a mixture with water can give you instant rotis with good taste. Ofcourse you need a frying pan and a deep fry with Aavakaaya is a terrific combination.

Nannari Juice: A special anantapur juice good for health. Unfortunately Nagendra does not know how to prepare this recipe. But he keeps talking of the nutrients it has. Need to try this when passing by this district.

Holige: Called popularly as "Bobbatlu" in coastal andhra pradesh are a speciality for some festivals. Sengapappu boiled and(Bengal Gram), jaggery grinded to a paste when put in the middle of a maida roti and heated is an awesome taste...
