Hi Kaveri, thanks a lot for all these recepies. I am also a palakkad Iyer and i have grown up on these dishes.. There are few dishes like uppadan and arachakalki which I did not know how to make and i often call up my mom asking for the measurements and recipes. Thanks a lot for this blog. All the best :D

Great store of all the forgotten tastes. I value your collection. My wife and I have seriously taken note of your recipes and these days we are restoring our domestic cooking to what it must be. Thanks for keeping our traditions alive.

PS. I didn't see a recipe for puli-kuthi poduthuval. It remains a fine examle of Iyer cooking.
