This dish is fire free cooking from Siddha Retreat Food. It is part of ancient dish practiced by the Tamils. Since I cook a lot of traditional food, my varsity junior, Sivajothi Arnasalam thought this recipes from her collections will be useful. Indeed, it is. Thank you Sivajothi. The salad was superb, delicious and refreshing - carries all 6 taste of a food- in one mouthful.
