Kerala is well known for its sea food delicacies and one of the recipes to top the list is the Chemmeen Pollichathu / Prawns Pollichathu. This is a spicy dish that will tingle your taste buds. Prawns is first marinated with the spices and then sauteed in a pan. It is then coated with the masala. This classic preparation is one of the dishes tourists coming to Kerala always look out for. I have always been a fan of Meen Pollichathu/ Fish Pollichathu. It is one of the healthiest way to have fish. It is on one of these searches on the internet that I found this recipe here. Traditionally the prawns is wrapped in a banana leaf , tied into a parcel and then baked on a heavy caste iron skillet or steamed. This brings out the flavours of the dish. This is a slightly easier version. It tasted too good!!

Healthy Milk Puri for Kids
I haven't met anyone who does not like Puris. Puri is an unleavened deep fried popular bread of India. You go to the south or north of India Puri is a popular Indian breakfast item. It is served with potato bhaji and chutney is also an amazing combination. Today I would like to share a healthier version of puris that can be made easily. This is the Milk Puri where the dough is made with a mixture of room temperature milk and poovan bananas. The puris are soft.

Vattayappam - A Kerala Special Steamed Rice Cake & Celebrating Blog Anniversary
Rinku’s Kitchen Treats is
celebrating its 4th anniversary. Oh my time has been flying
extremely fast! Creating this blog is
one of the best decisions I ever made, as it allows me to connect with people
that feel the same way about food as I do. And allows me to share my favorite cuisine- the Kerala cuisine with the rest of the world. I didn't have a plan
when I set out on this blogging journey. But I am taking it on a slow pace and
enjoying every minute of it.
Foremost, I want to thank my
husband and kids who play a large role behind the scenes. And want to thank all my readers for visiting my website and following us on Facebook, and
Pinterest. I truly appreciate it! It’s your readership that makes me continue blogging. I would even take this opportunity to thank my family for being so supportive, my
friend Shireen, who has been a constant
guide and my other friends who are always there for me.
So to all of you who have been a part
of my blogging journey, I want to say an enormous THANK YOU. I really
appreciate your kind comments, shares and feedback. Wishing you all a prosperous New Year!
