Request A Recipe.....
Most of the time, I just blog on whatever is cooking in my house or whatever catches my fancy. It could be a new cookbook, a vegetable from the farmer's market, a grilled item, a style of cooking or something I ate and just want to replicate. If I like something at someone's house, I always ask for the recipe and most of them part with their trade secrets willingly (he he some unwillingly:)). So I have a collection of my favourite recipes now. Also, each time someone asks a question, I learn something new. So I am welcome to suggestions to make the blog more interactive than a monologue on my part.
If you are looking for a recipe for a favorite dish, mail me a request, or respond as a comment to this post. Time permitting and if I am familiar with the dish/recipe, I will definitely try to post the recipe for you. Please be warned though, that I may not be able to respond to your request right away.

Have heard a lot abt mutta maala... can u post the recipe and a picture of the dish?
hi shaheen,
Do you know the recipe for Unnakkayi and 'meen pidi'.This time I got the right textured pathiri because of your 'neriya pathiri' post.Thanks a lot shaheen.
All the biryanis you know pretty please ;-)
Mutta mala, please please please!!! Thank you.
hey shaheen, I am looking for more grilled vegetable recipes which are healthy. Not much oil. Vegetables that can be cooked in oven rather than stove top.
Moplah Biriyani and kerala porotta, Pleaaaseee !
another vote for muttamaala...
I have it in my recipe book and have attempted it once. Don't know it came out good...have never tasted the real thing! so I can't make a comparison.
I am sure I will get more inspiration when you blog about it..with your beautiful pictures.
Would love to see some spicy malabar recipe modified to use salmon!
guess what I did this evening(instead of studying ;))...well I browsed through all your archives, that's what! Loved it too! :)
i guess u'll be giving me priority, as i was the first one to request for recipes(of pasta' remember, i even bought olive oil in anticipation).
ha ha .

lub

hey shaheen, If time permits please post a few recipes for Non-veggie snacks. I am running out of recipes i have in my little note book. :) especially when the same ppl come over & over, its weird to have the same dish over & over. U know what i mean :)?
btw, you invited me over for tea..but where in randolphville? :) I live on Morris Ave. Oh god! I can't believe you live so close to me.
plz do post malai kofta,veg gravies using malai(whipping cream) plz dear......mmmm also rasmalai and then mmmmm grilled chicken recipe..thanks in adavnce
Shaheen,
I would love to see more traditional food from you. Food you would love to pass on to your children and food that are slowly disappearing from the dinner tables back in Kerala.
I would also love to read some background information about the dishes and the ingredients. You already do that. This is just to tell you that, i really appreciate that and would love you to keep doing it. If that's alright with you, ie.
Will be back with more specific requests. :)
-Mathy
Am avid fan of ur blog & malabar food. Have tasted some exotic stuff like athishayapathiri, thurkipathiri, sweet & hot samoosa etc. Please post their recipes if you can.

Hi,
I want to prepare appam and would like to know it from you. Could you please give the recipe of appam. I have prepared fish fry and pathiri, taking recipes from your site... and it came out very well and it was my first attempt. Thanks a lot.
Dear Shaheen,
Big thank you for wonderful biryani recipe. Please do post your grandmother's exact traditional recipe when you have time, because these old traditions are so much in danger of disappearing. Once posted, they become sort of immortalized!
Also, in the traditional biryani, is the meat used somewhat fatty or lean, and what cuts are best? Ribs,neck, front shoulders? Your grandmother will surely have advice about this also. Thank you very much. Be well.

Shaheen,
Do u guys make Nombu Kanji? Its made of rice, ashali, coconut and jeera i think. am not 100% sure. Am sure of the ashali part though. If u make it can u post the recipie and tell me where i can find ashali
Afrin, i had posted a recipe for jeera kanji. that's what we make. i don't know what is ashali though. some one else also commented on the kanji that they use ashali and coriander powder, but we use it this way. just search for jeera kanji under malabar recipes on my side bar.
Hi Shaheen
I've been looking for Palaada(appam) recipe for a very long time - given up now :(
Its yet another pancake, we eat with non-veg curries. Its very thin, light and melts in your mouth and totally yummy !!
Whenever i type in Palaada, all i get is the payasam recipes, not wat i am looking for.
So u r my only hope !! Must add - i'm an avid follower and you have helped me a lot in my early days and still do (not that u require verbal-bribing ;))....
sonya, i think u are looking for palappam from your descibtion. If u just search for palappam + blogs, u will get a lot of recipes. "mishmash" has a good recipe for it too.
