Here comes my "First Try Memories" !!! :)
It was just a 2 months, we got married. I was so eager to give a try for a new recipe for the dinner i.e. Rava Kichadi. I was back from office with lot of enthusiam after getting the recipe tips from my friend. She asked to me take 2 aalaku or Big alss of Rava with some vegetables for 2 person (Me and my hubby). Accordingly i have kept a very big vessel, which can accumulate 4 litres of water :) and i have added 6 or 7 spoons of ghee(!) and added just a 2 spoons of masala items and i have followed the above method for the preparation. Rava Kichadi reached the final stage which filled 3/4 of vessel and looks as if i have prepared for 5 members. I was shocked on seeing the content and am damn sure, the kitachi will get wasted. Huh! i have controlled my sad feelings and have done so many garnishing/seasoning to add more attraction to taste the Yummy(!) Kichadi. Also have prepared a delicious (really it was delicious) coconut chutney which is the best combination for Kitachi. Before my hubby tastes it, me thought of tasting it. Once i licked a small amount, tears roll down from my eyes, cos it has no flavour, taste...... N O T H I N G :(((((
Its time for my hubby to taste. I dont want to comment on my first try. So, i have served him with a spoon of chutney and he was simply enjoying the Kitachi without giving any comments. I was tensed and i asked him about the dish, He said "It was really Yummy and Delicious" and he asked me to serve it for 2nd time. When he asked me to serve, i hugged him and was literally crying by saying "Itha poi nalla irukunu solreengaleeeeeeeee". He tried to convince me nearly for 15 mins like a kid and i have started eating the Rava Kichadi (No other go !!)
You know, who is the root cause for this Disaster ?? Its my SWEETTTT Friend, who asked me to take 2 big glasses of Rava. Most funny is, till now i didnt try that Rava Kichadi. So friends, dont think this recipe is worst to try, Recently i have tried Vermicille or Semiya Kitachi in the same method and it came our very well.
