Grilled Vegetable Panini

I don't use my electric grill often. So i searched online for some grilling recipes and found about the panini. It's basically a sandwich that's grilled. The sandwich can be made with any vegetable or meat of choice. I decided to make mine with grilled veggies and goat cheese.



Ingredients:

Bread slices - 8
Onion - 1 (sliced)
Green bell pepper/Capsicum - 1 (sliced)
Mint chutney - as needed
Tomato ketchup - as needed
Chilli sauce - as needed
Cooking spray/oil for grilling (butter can also be used)
Goat cheese - as needed

Method:

Heat the grill to a medium temperature. When hot, spray with cooking spray and grill the sliced veggies. Meanwhile spread mint chutney on one slice of bread and ketchup on another. Add goat cheese to the slice with mint chutney and place the grilled veggies on top. Sprinkle chilli sauce and cover with the slice with ketchup. Grill the sandwich till crispy and brown on both sides. If you have an open grill place a heavy vessel on top of the sandwich to press it down. Serve by itself or with more ketchup.



Variations: Any number of veggies like zucchini, yellow squash, tomatoes, different color pepper can be grilled and added. Also different kinds of cheeses can be added.

Note: Goat cheese has a strong raw flavor and many people might not like it. It can be substituted with mozzarella or cottage cheese.

Green Blog Project - Summer 2007

Image
Last year when I first read about the Green Blog Project , I was very excited as we had so many veggies growing in our backyard and this was a good event to participate in. I was a month old in the food blogging world and it was one of the first few events that I participated in. I made vegetable fried rice from carrots and beans and tomato thokku from tomatoes grown in my backyard. After sending my entries I was eagerly waiting for the roundup and was amazed at all the other entries. I usually stick to traditional and easy growing veggies. But after looking at the roundup, I was surprised to see so many people growing traditional Indian veggies with such ease. This effort started by InjiPennu has encouraged a lot of food bloggers to grow their own vegetables either be it in small containers/pots or a big backyard. I had totally dismissed the idea of growing anything in winter. When Mandira of Ahaar hosted the GBP winter/spring 2007 event and gave us some very good tips on grow

Arachu vitta sambar, Kovakkai (tindora) varuval, Podalangai (padval) poriyal

Image
I have lots of Indian vegetables stocked in my fridge after my last week's Indian grocery shop visit. I had murungakai (drumsticks), podalangai(padval), kovakkai(tindora) and fresh coconut. So decided to make some very Indian (specifically Tamilian) dishes with those vegetables for dinner last night. When I think of drumsticks the first thing that comes to my mind is Sambar. I was bored of making the regular sambar and hence decided to go with arachu vitta sambar. The main ingredient in this type of sambar is the freshly ground masala and it adds a very unique and different taste. Then decided to do something spicy and dry to go with it and hence a varuval. With the fresh coconut I decided to do some poriyal. So the final menu was arachu vitta murungakkai (drumsticks) sambar, kovakkai (tindora) (ivy gourd) varuval and podalangai (padval) (snake gourd) poriyal. Arachu Vitta Sambar: Ingredients: Thur dal (cooked and mashed) – 1½ cups Drumsticks (cut) – ½ cup Onion (chopped) – 2 Tomat

Adai and pudina chutney

Image
Last night I was in the mood for idli or dosa but did not have the batter ready. The idli/dosa batter usually takes time preparing (6hrs to soak the ingredients and 6 hrs to ferment the ground batter). So I decided to make Adai as it takes about 2hrs to soak, grind, ferment and to prepare. Adai is pretty filling and high in protein as different varieties of dal are used. Adai: Ingredients: Idli rice (can be substituted with any available rice) - 1 cup Whole urad dal - 3/4 cup Channa dal - 3/4 cup Thur dal - 3/4 cup Ginger - 2 inch piece Shredded coconut - 1/4 cup Red chillies - 4 (can be increased for additional spice) Jeera - 2 tsp Curd - 1 tbsp Salt - as needed Method: Soak rice and all dal ingredients together in enough water for 2hrs. If you are in a real hurry 1hr should be enough. Grind all the above ingredients to a dosa batter consistency. It is fine if the mix is a little course. Also if you are using an US bought blender, grind the above in batches as the motor heats up prett
