I found your blog when I was googling and I found that all my favourite vegetarian south india food was here. So on Mon it was Kathirikka Satham, Tues- Aloo-Mutar Kuram, Wed-masala chapati and kojju,<BR/>Thu- Veg Pulao, and on Fri- Dal Dhokli (from Lav's page). It is amazing. All the recipes came out wonderful. Am planning on some extra veggie shopping this week :)<BR/> I think it will be a good idea to have a rating for each recipe in your blog. I found this HTML code which you can include in your blog and we can rate your wonderful recipes. Here is the link if you want to use it. http://star.recompile.net/<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the lovely recipes and sorry abt the Xtra long comment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12940096.post-1165003535623861392006-12-01T20:05:00.000+00:002006-12-01T20:05:00.000+00:00I have eaten the lemon poppyseed muffins in the US...I have eaten the lemon poppyseed muffins in the US. They usually mean the black tiny poppyseed and not the Indian KhusKhus. Maybe that is why you found that the texture was not to your liking (as others have already posted before). Hope you make this again with the black poppyseeds and post the pictures again for us readers living vicariously through your blog :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12940096.post-1164974568667893522006-12-01T12:02:00.000+00:002006-12-01T12:02:00.000+00:00Yummy.

I DO know about them, I just didnt associate myself cooking with them. Plus I havent seen them in the Indian store where I buy my supplies. Gotta look out for them in regular markets, methinks. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the research and info, guys!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12940096.post-1164881012295690332006-11-30T10:03:00.000+00:002006-11-30T10:03:00.000+00:00Sorry cookbook junkie...i posted my comment and on...Sorry cookbook junkie...i posted my comment and only then read yours. <BR/>Indian cooking has lots of recipes with white poppy seeds.

I think if it's a european recipe, they probably meant black poppy seed(??), I have seen lemon cake slices with poppy seeds (it's the black ones) in various shops here, mostly quick snacks, upper crust, rest of the railway station cafes around the south. Doesn't do much taste wise, but definitely gives an added visual appeal with those tiny black specks. <BR/>Oh and I sooo love the size of your portions!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12940096.post-1164830559216762682006-11-29T20:02:00.000+00:002006-11-29T20:02:00.000+00:00I looked this up - the poppy seeds I'm used to see...I looked this up - the poppy seeds I'm used to seeing are blue, not black and are different from the lighter colored ones. This recipe probably should have had the blue poppy seeds. Maybe then it would have made sense but then again, maybe not.
