Peanut Masala Bath

You will not believe how much enthusiasm I had in making this dish. When I read Easycraft's (click here for the recipe)recipe for peanut masala bath, I decided to make it for dinner. I ran to the grocery store just to buy peanuts before dinner time and made it. I have never liked Vangibath made with brinjal or capsicum. But I liked peanut masala bath a lot. It is a nice substitute for veges. Oops I got the name interchanged in the above picture:)

Note: Grind the peanuts finely else your mouth will ache.

Some of my foodie friends know that I tried making Thattai and ended up with a few minor burns on my hand. I am so embarrassed to tell you that I couldn't make out the difference between rice flour and corn flour that day.. Yes! I was actually making thattais using corn flour. When I was kneading the dough, it was so sticky and I thought I had bought a bad quality rice flour. It did not strike me that I was using the wrong flour :) I realised it the next day when I was searching for corn flour in my pantry to make sweet corn soup. Isn't it funny?

Kanna,
By admitting that the burn caused while making Thattai was due to using corn flour instead of rice flour,you stand tall by telling the truth. I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR QUALITY. KEEP IT UP MY CHILD.
By the way, Peanut Masala bath looks yummy and should taste good.

You shared the corn flour experience with me yesterday... now I am sure everyone will learn to be careful from your experience.
