  • Keep stirring till the oil bubbles minimise and the frying sound becomes less. Pour two teaspoons of water mixture to the oil. it gives out bubbles and noise for a while and settles down. Transfer the chips to a bowl.

I am a native of Kanyakumari district, brought up in Tiruchirapalli, and settled in Tirunelveli. I started exploring cooking at the age of 15 and learned a variety of recipes from my two grandmothers, friends, aunts, mother, and mother-in-law.

Cooking is, of course, my passion. I work as a teacher, and my colleagues love to receive recipes and tips from me, just as I enjoy learning from them. My son and husband encourage me to experiment with and innovate new dishes."
