Fish curry - Mix of Kerala and Tamil Nadu Styles
The peninsular Southern India has a long coast on its eastern side bordering the Bay of Bengal and so we get a wide variety of sea food like fish, crab and prawns in Tamil Nadu. Meen Columbu or fish curry is one of the most traditional fish dishes made in Tamil Nadu and other southern states. Most varieties of fish can be used to make this dish. Preferences vary from region to region.

Buttermilk Pancake
Since the time I moved to the USA I have fallen in love with Pancakes. Though I have become an addict of the IHOP pancakes I figured it would work out cheaper to make them myself at home and that’s when I started trying out different varieties of pancakes. I love buttermilk pancake and also the multigrain pancakes, and what better than a multigrain-buttermilk pancake?
